Bar Nestor Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
Pub FoodBarGreat selection of beersGreat selection of cocktailsPubResto-Bar

Nestor was a garage owner and carpenter who lived near the American border. To make ends meet, he would bring in growlers of adulterated whiskey from Newfoundland, and drive them back to the United States in his gleaming modified Oldsmobile... He was my grandfather.

It is in his memory that Nestor was created, a friendly and festive neighborhood bar where classic cocktails from the 20's and 30's, bourbons, whiskies, scotches, beers and above all a lot of fun are mixed together.

Review Summary

Bar Nestor comes across as a lively, well decorated neighborhood spot with a warm, convivial vibe and a classic old school bar energy. Reviews highlight a strong drink menu with a wide beer selection and thoughtful cocktails, plus good wines and a food pairing that works well with beer; prices are described as reasonable and the service often praised for attentiveness and friendliness. The upstairs room is noted as a great option for private events or larger groups, and the option to bring in own food or music adds flexibility. The atmosphere can be festive and busy, especially during holidays, but sometimes the music can be too loud and conversation can suffer. Food quality is mixed: some praise the food as great or solid, while a few mentions of pizza or snacks that feel like microwave or frozen items and some dishes not meeting expectations. Some experiences mention slow service at times, yet overall it remains a popular neighborhood bar with a terrace in summer and a space for social gatherings.

Nestor, c'est l'endroit parfait pour un 5 à 7. C'est proche du métro & l'ambiance est vraiment conviviale & festive. Il y a un très bon choix de cocktails & de bières, & la bouffe est parfaite pour accompagner une bonne bière. Les prix sont raisonnables & le staff est super fin & serviable.
Seule petite critique : par moments, la musique était un peu trop forte, ce qui rendait la conversation un peu difficile.
Je recommande quand même à 100 % !

Bar à l'ambiance agréable, bonne sélection de boissons & cocktails très recherchés (la Margarita Mangue/Sriracha est un must). Néanmoins, la nourriture était en deçà de nos attentes.

Superbe ambiance. Lundi quizz, le son est légèrement fort. Il devrait baisser le son du micro. La bouff superbe. Les patés végé wow succulent, la pizza je ne vousl recommande pas. 14$ pour une pizza de carton pas très top. La planche végétarienne, délicieuse. Un peu tropp de legumes marinés mais cetait bon. Je recommande pcq cest bon & pas cher. Le service devrait etre a revoir. Les verres d'eau cest toujours important. Cocktails super bon.
