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.
This review goes out to the Gnocchi arrabiata. That was the best gnocchi I've ever had. Just one thing to note is this place is quite loud so it is sometimes difficult to converse.
Je n'ai jamais essayé leur nourriture, mais leur vaste choix de vins & l'ambiance du bar méritent amplement 5 étoiles. C'est l'endroit parfait si vous cherchez quelque chose d'intime & calme. L'atmosphère chaleureuse & raffinée en fait un lieu idéal pour se détendre & profiter d'un bon verre entre amis ou en couple.
Busy night expect longer service times. The staff was really lovely, everyone was very kind. The food & drinks were delicious. The outdoor patio is cute & the inside is also nice.

Le popcorn au manchego est surprenant! Le plat de pieuvre est très bon!
C'est peut-être une expérience isolée, mais le service n'était pas incroyable... Pour commander un 2e verre, on s'est fait dire par 2 employés differents qu'ils ne pouvaient pas prendre notre commande... mais ils n'ont jamais penser à envoyer la serveuse à notre table.

Nous avons partagé plusieurs tapas à 4 & avons tout adoré! Je recommande! J'enlève une étoile pour le service qui a été un peu long & on m'a renversé 2 fois de l'eau dessus, la première fois sans rien dire ce que j'ai trouvé un peu ordinaire.. par contre rien à dire sur le serveur.
Date night with wife. Walked in around midnight on a Friday & was seated right away at the bar. Bartender was super friendly. Made me a few cocktails that were off menu. We ordered the popcorn (crazy good) & the beef tartare (also very good). We had such a good time that we went back the next night & had the popcorn again & tried the kale caesar which was also outstanding. All of the cocktails were excellent on the menu as well. Great spot!!
L'atmosphère est super! La nourriture est plutôt bonne (Petite déception pour les gnocchis pas crémeux & un peu secs & le cocktail Pina Colada un peu bof). Les serveurs sont très gentils. Très sympathique en mode bar à tapas pour partager des mets...

LOVE this place!!! Don't miss it. Friendly & fast service with great cocktails & great food. We got the goat cheese tartlette, grilled cheese & kale Caesar. all so good!!
Absolutely a must-visit in Montreal. We came for an early dinner on a Friday afternoon & sat on the beautiful terrace. Every bite was delicious, & the wine menu is awesome. Our server was absolutely rocking the entire terrace, we felt really well taken-care of, even though we were there with our small baby. We will be back !
