Bar Leonor ressort comme une perle cachée de Chinatown, avec une ambiance speakeasy intime et un décor chaleureux qui invite à discuter et à profiter des soirées, des DJs et d’un cadre underground sans être prétentieux. Les cocktails sont régulièrement salués pour leur équilibre, leur créativité et leur qualité, avec des options sans alcool aussi très appréciées, et certains visiteurs décrivent des expériences sensorielles qui ressemblent à un véritable voyage de saveurs. Le service est souvent décrit comme convivial, attentif et expert, capable de composer des boissons sur mesure selon les goûts et de guider les novices comme les habitués; l’accueil et la bonne ambiance contribuent à fidéliser une clientèle qui retrouve chez Bar Leonor une atmosphère chaleureuse et accueillante. Si l’endroit peut apparaître un peu cher et les portions parfois petites selon les avis, il est néanmoins recommandé comme lieu idéal pour un rendez-vous, une soirée entre amis ou une sortie détente, avec une satisfaction générale et l’envie de revenir.
Leonor is such a hidden gem - perfect for both casual hangouts & date nights. The vibe is amazing: warm, cozy lighting & just the right amount of privacy for good conversations or a chill night out with friends. You can tell they've really put thought into every little detail.
The service is top-notch. The staff are super friendly, attentive, & know exactly what they're doing - it feels like they've been in the game for years. Drinks, atmosphere, music - everything flows perfectly together.
Once you sit down, you honestly won't want to leave. 100% recommend checking this place out if you're in Chinatown!
Les boissons sont bonnes, mais un peu trop chères.
Le menu est très limités, mais le serveur nous a informés qu'ils pouvaient nous offrir pas mal n'importe quelle boisson qu'on voulait.
Ils n'ont pas de menu physique ni même de code QR à scanner. Le serveur nous a dit de simplement chercher le bar sur Google, ce que je trouvais un peu bizarre.

Decor is fine but nothing original - feels like they just recycled the look from the old Mal Nécessaire. The waiter told us we had to go on their website to see the menu… call me old school, but just print some menus. Drinks are $20 for a single cocktail, which is absolutely insane. Mine was fine, but definitely not worth that price. Feels like one of those tourist trap spots charging ridiculous prices for average drinks. Not surprised the place was empty when we came. Won't be coming back.
Ambiance de Speakeasy…. J'adore 🥰! Le service est excellent! Assis au Bar c'est toujours la meilleure place pour avoir un excellent service! Les cocktails sont goûteux! Bravo à toute l'équipe! Cheers 🥂
This is the bar that finally made me like gin - & that's saying something. Credit goes to Khaaliq, the kind of bartender you don't just remember, but talk about later like an old friend. You could order off the menu, sure. But the real magic? Tell him what you're into, & he'll come back with something so spot-on it makes you question why you ever drank anything else.
The place itself? Dark, moody, just the right kind of strange. Plants spilling out of corners like the jungle crept in & decided to stay. It felt like a secret, like you weren't supposed to be there, but somehow were. A hidden pocket of the city where you're not a tourist, just someone in the know.
It was the perfect way to start the night. The only regret? Not sticking around long enough to catch the DJ. Next time, I won't make that mistake.
Stumbled across this bar & it's incredible!! Will be returning. Service & drink menu amazing! The drinks: Looney Tunes, Juice box, Gold Stem
All equally well balanced & delicious... The service is to die for tho
feels like walking into a movie. i love it. drinks on point. the set up on point, love the angles, love the attention to detail, love the service, especially in a time where good quality service seems to be lacking in most places.

This bar is amazing. Awesome drinks, friendly staff. Its such a cute retro vibe inside as well. It was so good that we came back a second time within a few days. Tommy was a legend & Max too! Would definitely recommend!!
Such a vibe! From the moment you step inside, the dim red lighting, intricate tilework, & mix of textures (plush couches, tall stools, & intimate bar seating) set the stage for a night that's equal parts stylish & welcoming. The aesthetic nails that vintage speakeasy feel, but without a hint of pretension...just pure, unforced cool.
On a Saturday night, the soundtrack was a love letter to old-school hip-hop, & when DJ Cristobal U took over at 11 PM, the energy soared with deep cuts & classics that had the crowd buzzing. The music, like the space, felt curated but never try-hard...just genuine, good-energy beats.
But what truly sets Bar Leonor apart is the people. The bartenders, Adrian & Mickey (one of the owners), are the kind of warm, engaging hosts who make you feel like a regular from your first visit. Despite the busy night, they took time to chat, share stories, & showcase their craft with passion.
We started with the Looney Tunes, a playful yet sophisticated opener, then dove into a lineup of drinks that each felt like a revelation: the Juice Box (bright & inventive), Saturn (balanced perfection), Ciao Pescao (refreshing with a twist), & Wooden Ships (complex & smoky). Picking a favorite was impossible...they were all so good
Bar Leonor has instantly become a go-to spot for us. Between the stunning atmosphere, killer music, world-class drinks, & staff who treat you like friends, it's the kind of place that makes for the perfect night.
A relatively new speakeasy in Montreal - so go there now if you can before it gets too difficult to get in.
We sat by the bar (our favorite spot) & got to taste some libations curated by Adrian. A fan of clarifying milk bunch, Adrian recommended the Juice Box & it totally hit the spot!
My husband was a bit difficult to please as he is allergic to pretty much all the spritz except for corn-based vodka. Adrian took his time to come up with a cocktail that would fit his needs, which was very thoughtful.
We got to chat with another friendly bartender, Khaaliq, a New Yorker like us, but who has moved to Montreal years ago. This bar was more than just a watering hole for us; we felt connected with the locals.
Amazing atmosphere, top-notch service, & great music every night with live DJs. The place specializes in cocktails, & it really shows - every drink was thoughtfully crafted. The owner, who also makes the cocktails, is an absolute gem & made us feel right at home, as did the rest of the staff. A standout spot for a night out!
