Bar Henrietta is a chic and vibrant Montreal spot where cocktails and sharing plates are highly praised, with a strong wine program and a lively atmosphere that can feel crowded at times. The food is flavorful and varied, featuring items like burrata, octopus, scallops, ceviche and piri piri chicken, and the popcorn is a popular highlight for many guests. The vibe is warm and welcoming, the terrace is often described as beautiful, and the overall mood works well for a first date or a night out with friends. Noise levels can be loud and conversation may be difficult when the place is busy. Service is friendly and attentive on many visits but can slow during peak hours, and some patrons report long waits for drinks. The space feels intimate yet compact, with some tables sharing space when crowded and no reservations available in many cases. Overall Bar Henrietta is a popular choice for good value cocktails and tasty small plates with a vibrant atmosphere, though experiences vary with noise and service speed.
Food & service were phenomenal. Definitely caters to a younger crowd that's down to yell over loud music (although the music was very good). Kudos to the waiters who somehow can hear your order - superpowers?
Portions were small but perfect, no leftovers had to be brought home!
Not a ton of places to sit, we arrived at 5:30 & all the proper booths etc were already full. We sat at a bar-like area spanning the middle of the space, cute & comfy but also crowded.
Good wine list, we were all impressed with our choices.

The place looks cute, but gets very loud. It also smelled food... a lot. After leaving this bar all my clothes smelled food even though I sat a the bar. The staff was amazing & very friendly, the cocktails were well done.
Excellent sur toute la ligne. Bonne bouffe goûteuse, bon plat & pas trop dispendieux.
Mention spéciale à Colin & Dominic pour leur service attentionné, juste & tellement sympathiques. Cheers.
Nous avons attendu 40 minutes dans la file parce que le restaurant n'accepte pas de réservations à l'avance. Pendant ce temps, le serveur a déplacé notre table d'un endroit à un autre.
Nous avons précisé que nous étions venus pour un anniversaire & nous avons demandé s'il y avait un dessert offert ou une petite réduction. Après cela, nous avons encore attendu 10 minutes pour le dessert après avoir payé l'addition.
Je comprends que le restaurant était très occupé, mais nous étions déjà prêts à partir. Merci au serveur noir (il n'a pas dit son nom) qui a essayé d'améliorer la situation. Mais, à part le goût de la nourriture, je ne recommande pas cet endroit.

One of my favorite Montréal spots so far! Super chic interior & all of the staff were super friendly & welcoming. Great happy hour prices as well. I enjoyed the popcorn (life changing) & the kale caesar. highly recommend!
Bon vin québécois mais malheureusement pas assez d'options végétariennes ou vegan. Audrey a été super sympa & a arrangé une assiette spéciale pour moi !!
Bon service, plats goûteux, espace très jolie & donne un bon vibe!! Sachez que certains espaces du resto est très crowded avec des minis tables tellement collés sur les voisins, genre les gens à côté peuvent faire partis de la convo la😅😭 90$ pour 2 personnes

Les pourboires suggérés sur le terminal commencent à 17 %, sans possibilité de 15 %. Cette pratique n'est pas conforme aux exigences de l'OPC & manque de transparence pour les clients.
I love everything about Henrietta! The food is spectacular - new flavours every time. The atmosphere is lovely & the service spot on. Highly recommended! We live six hours from Montreal & visit Henrietta every time we visit the city. It's always a trip highlight.
Amazing vibes overall, though the music was a bit too loud for comfortable conversation. The drinks were good, & the popcorn was the highlight of my visit. I had the gnocchi, which was okay. My friends ordered a chicken dip with bread (I don't remember the exact name), & it was amazing. I'd say this is a great place for good vibes & a few drinks.
