Situé au Centre ville de Montréal, le Bar George's inscrit dans la continuité du riche passé du Mount Stephen's avec sa cuisine contemporaine mais résolument tournée vers l'avenir.
Les avis décrivent Bar George comme un espace historique époustouflant, avec un bois travaillé magnifique et une ambiance à la Downton Abbey au sein de l'hôtel Mount Stephen, où le bar et les salles à manger allient chic et convivialité. Les cocktails sont largement salués et le beef Wellington est une vedette, tout comme le lobster risotto et la soupe aux champignons, même si certains plats ou portions sont jugés petits ou inégaux et que les prix sont parfois jugés élevés. Le service est décrit comme attentif et bien informé par de nombreux clients, avec de bons conseils sur les vins et les cocktails, mais quelques visites signalent un service lent ou irrégulier lors des heures d'affluence. Les expériences de brunch et de déjeuner sont mises en valeur pour l'ambiance et la qualité des plats, et certains notent le bruit. Dans l'ensemble Bar George est perçu comme un cadre impressionnant, idéal pour une occasion spéciale ou un rendez-vous, où l'atmosphère et l'architecture compensent certains défauts de valeur ou d'exécution.
Went for a cocktail at the bar ! Great service, loved the music & vibe. Will definitely go back for supper next time - their lobster risotto looks bomb!
Bar George is in a league of its own. Set inside the breathtaking 19th century mansion of Sir George Stephen, the space alone is worth the visit - intricate wood panelling, grand fireplaces, stained-glass windows, & a sense of occasion around every corner. It feels like dining inside a living piece of Montreal history.
The food matches the setting beautifully. Executive Chef Kevin Ramasawmy's take on British-inspired cuisine with a Québécois twist is creative, refined, & deeply satisfying. We had the Beef Wellington & it was absolutely stunning - perfectly executed & full of flavour. The cocktail list is equally impressive, & the sommelier's wine recommendations were spot on.
Service was warm, attentive, & genuinely gracious throughout the entire evening. Whether you're celebrating something special or just want one of the finest dining experiences Montreal has to offer, Bar George delivers every time. An absolute must.
Bar George is one of those rare places that gets the balance just right, upscale without being pretentious. It's a place that makes you feel like you're having a bit of an elevated experience, but in a relaxed, unforced way.
I visited with my wife & my brother, who was in from Northern Ontario. We had tickets to a clown gala cabaret later that evening, & Bar George felt like the perfect place to start the night. Drinks, a proper meal, & an atmosphere that sets a tone.
It delivered on all of it.
What I Liked:
Drinks were exactly what you want them to be. I had a Peroni, my brother stuck with his rye & ginger, & my wife ordered a Caesar-all well done.
For food, my wife & I went with the beef Wellington, & my brother had the sirloin. We loved our meal-rich, satisfying, & well executed.
What stood out most was my brother's reaction. He's a steak guy & not easily impressed, & he genuinely loved it. Cooked perfectly, & the reduced au jus added something a little different from the usual. That says a lot.
Service was friendly & attentive overall. The only small knock was that the first round of drinks took a little longer than expected, but everything flowed smoothly after that.
We also arrived about 30 minutes early for our reservation & were accommodated without any fuss, which is always appreciated.
Atmosphere & Vibe:
This is where Bar George really separates itself.
The space is visually stunning, rich woodwork, intricate detailing, & a sense of history that you feel the moment you walk in. It's the kind of place where you can't help but look around a bit.
Add in a DJ playing at just the right volume… present, but not overpowering & the whole room carries a relaxed, confident energy. It feels intentional without trying too hard.
We sat in the bar area, which is first come, first served & honestly my preferred spot. It feels a little more alive.
It's upscale, but warm. Stylish, but comfortable. A hard balance to strike & they do it well.
Closing:
Bar George is more than just a place to grab a drink or a meal, it's an experience without the attitude.
It's not cheap, but it's worth it.
If you're looking for something that sits between casual & refined, where you can enjoy great food, strong drinks, & a space that actually adds to the night, this is your place.
Perfect for date nights, hosting out-of-town guests, or just treating yourself to something a little better than average.
One thing about this place is that as soon as you walk in the atmosphere there is really welcoming. Feels like you are in a Castle or a Chateau, With a DJ playing amazing house music.
The food was super delicious, the staff friendly, helpful & welcoming.

Went to the restaurant 5:30pm for dinner, I ordered Jambon Blanc/ White Ham & after arriving home around 8:30pm, diarhea & vomited... This is the only meal I had so it can only be due to eating this.
I had the most amazing dinner & drinks at Bar George tonight, & I cannot recommend enough! I originally planned to go to Bar George for a classy pre-Lady Gaga dinner & unfortunately she cancelled… instead, Bar George & our server Kevin became the stars of our night. My friend & I split the incredible lobster risotto & beef Wellington & Kevin provided delicious wine pairing recommendations for each course. Definitely include on your visit to Montreal! Magnifique👌!

What am amazing experience. Beautiful restaurant. Food was perfection. Portions were generous. Kevin took great care of us & provided the perfect wine pairings with each course.
We loved the atmosphere & the food, but unfortunately the service fell well below expectations. Despite having a reservation, the hostess seemed reluctant to seat us, which immediately made us feel like an inconvenience.
After being seated, it took about 15 minutes for our server to acknowledge us. The cocktails were overpriced &, unfortunately, didn't live up to the ambiance-my martini, in particular, was unbalanced & disappointing.
When we asked for a few minutes to enjoy our drinks, the waiter informed us that the kitchen was closing & that we needed to order quickly, which felt rushed & detracted from the experience. We mentioned that we'd like to order wine after our cocktails, but once our drinks were finished & the food arrived, our server never returned to the table.
We ended up having to ask another staff member for the wine menu. Overall, the poor service significantly impacted our evening.
Sadly, I left feeling disappointed & underwhelmed, & I wouldn't return.
Get transported back to the 1900s in this opulent bar inside the Mount Stephen Hotel. It's very ornate & I love the oval wrap around bar. Makes it a very convivial vibe & they make solid cocktails. Their food is good too if you wanted to grab a bite but not a full meal. This is my second visit & it's still amazing!
The one time I was in England I was mistaken for a pauper & a prince on the same tram ride & it made me realize how important outward appearances are. Very. This establishment harkens back to a time when woodwork was prized above all else & when your fireplaces should outnumber your tables. The food was very good but gentle sirs, this is Montreal should you aspire to 5 stars you really have wow me. Dinning room is classy but the bar is like a tightly laced bodice on a shapely maiden: easy on the eyes & insinuates excitement. Be sure to read all the plaques as one does in merry olde England.
Coolest bar in the city. The vibe is very chic & upscale but welcoming & unpretentious. Awesome DJ & the absolute best bloody Caesar I've had in Montreal & I tired a bunch.
A wonderful experience -we were drawn in by the inviting aroma of freshly baked bread drifting through the hotel & quickly booked dinner. The meal & service were excellent, delivering both quality & attentiveness. Set within such an exquisite space, the atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between refined & lively, making it a truly enjoyable & memorable evening.
Classic British restaurant. Nice interior. One of their desserts did not have the alcohol cooked off properly & wasn't great but the rest was amazing enough to make up for it (get the ham appetizer)
