Bar Le Mal Nécessaire

I had an extremely disappointing experience at Le Mal Nécessaire.

The staff were honestly some of the most unprofessional I've encountered. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the place is completely disorganized. Despite having a reservation, we were told to wait in the back & ended up standing there for about 40 minutes with no explanation or update. It felt like we were completely forgotten & honestly made to feel excluded.

The management seemed just as disorganized as the staff, with no one taking responsibility for the situation or even attempting to handle it properly.

To make matters worse, the olives & finger foods tasted like they were past their expiration date, which is pretty concerning for a place that presents itself as a high-end cocktail bar.

Overall, the experience was frustrating & poorly managed. With so many great bars in Montreal, I would definitely not recommend this one

A very warm & cozy place with great music being spun at a perfect volume. A great place for date night or a hang with friends. Good choice of original cocktails to chose from. I definitely recommend!

Biggest speakeasy I've been to. Super nice inside & the music isn't too loud

A necessary stop for the cocktail inclined when visiting Montreal. Dim, vibrant, humming, & hip, this intimate spot attracts varied generations with a taste for lovingly crafted spirits touched with flare & fire - literally, if you tackle the pineapple slushy fuego that comes out like a sparkler. With good company, expect delicate sips mixed with stories & laughs. The kind of place where the drinks match the toast. Priced as such.

I went there twice, & let me tell you, I won't be coming back.

It took more than 45 minutes just to get our drinks.

When they finally arrived, the cocktails were filled with ice. Mine & my friend's were both finished after about five sips, which was very disappointing considering they cost $22 each & we had already waited so long.

The hostess was also quite rude & didn't seem concerned about the customers waiting. At one point she was on her phone instead of attending to people.

the drinks were delicious, vibes were great on a rainy night, music was good & our bartender niko was excellent. the queueing system was really odd though, they escorted us to a back room bar where you can order a drink while waiting for an actual table. back room bar menu & main bar menu is different. we waited for around 30 min on a sat night before getting a table.

We were really pleased with the atmosphere & service, but the coctails & food were just OK. It wasn`t the most delicious experience, but I believe that I will give them the second chance!)

A bit overrated. Cocktails were good but not exceptional. Wasn't really worth the 30 minute wait.
