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.

Le jeu questionnaire était correct & le personnel était courtois. Cependant, le jeu devait commencer à 19h, mais a plutôt commencé à 19h40, donc nous avons dû souper là-bas... La nourriture était ridiculement dégueulasse & beaucoup trop cher pour des pogos & un sac de chip, par exemple ! Il n'y a aucune cuisine & tout est cuit derrière le bar... style Nachos dans le micro-ondes, & oui ! C'était affreux. De plus, voir la barmaid sentir les mixers & faire des drôles de faces avant de faire les drinks était très louche quoique divertissant. Bref, les deux étoiles sont pour le concept du bar trivia, mais je n'y retournerai pas.

Great spot for a nice drink & snack.

Atmosphere was similar to the bar in How I Met Your Mother.

Great service with a nice atmosphere & a very Gatsby-era interrior. I don't drink but it was still a nice place to meet some friends

Food & drinks were good. The sound system is trash. Might want to look into that
