Bar Numero is described as a standout in Montreal's cocktail scene, offering a sophisticated, intimate setting with a sleek, moody vibe and warm lighting that feels exclusive yet welcoming. The cocktails are consistently inventive and well balanced, with precise technique and artful presentation, and sitting at the bar is often recommended to witness the bartending craft up close. Service is repeatedly praised for attentiveness and polish, helping guests feel well cared for from arrival to departure even when the venue is busy. The space blends minimalism with a luxe feel, making it ideal for a date night or a relaxed catch up with friends, and while prices sit on the higher side and the room can be compact, the creative drinks, refined atmosphere and standout staff make Bar Numero a must try in Montreal.
(Review written after visiting on Thursday 30th April circa 9pm) This place left a sour taste in our mouths. Despite the very chic decor & ambient music, my partner & I felt rushed to quickly order a second round of drinks while we were still finishing our first round & taking in the atmosphere. They kept asking us every few minutes if we wanted another round & despite being one of the newest customers to arrive, & there still being space left, one of the bartenders just handed us the cheque without us even asking (ie effectively kicking us out). This was as we were discussing possibly getting a second round or maybe an appetiser. To be clear - we are a respectable young professional couple travelling from the UK & we didn't cause any disturbance. This was the first time at any establishment where we genuinely felt unwelcome. This ruined our evening - what a shame since we were initially very happy to be here. This place felt very snobbish, not genuinely classy.

If you're going to Numero, do yourself a favor & ask for Jackson behind the bar.
This was easily one of the best bar experiences I've had. Jackson doesn't just make drinks - he reads the room, understands your vibe, & recommends exactly what you didn't even know you were in the mood for. Every suggestion he made was spot on.
What stood out most was his ability to elevate the entire experience. The drinks were incredible, but it was his insight, energy, & attention to detail that made the night unforgettable. You can tell he genuinely cares about what he's doing & takes pride in delivering a top-tier experience.
If you want your night to hit different, Jackson is the guy. I'll be recommending him to everyone.
As a self-proclaimed cocktail connoisseur, I've seen many bars open in this city. But Numéro has instantly claimed, in my opinion it's spot as one of the absolute best in Montréal. If you're looking for a very sophisticated, world-class experience in an intimate setting, well this new place is it!
The Atmosphere & Vibe:
Numéro is a masterclass in mood. It's a small, sleek space with a unique, high-end atmosphere that feels exclusive without being pretentious. We booked for 9 PM on a Saturday, & the place was electric-completely packed with a stylish crowd. The warm, moody lighting & minimalist design make it the perfect spot for a date night or a deep catch-up with close friends.
The Cocktails:
The drink menu here is exceptional. Each cocktail is a work of art, both in flavor profile & presentation.
• Precision & Flair: (See the video!) Watching the bartenders work is half the experience. The level of technique, from the rhythmic shaking to the precise garnishing is top-tier. I highly recommend to sit at the bar.
• Innovative Flavors: We tried several drinks, & the balance of ingredients was flawless. Whether you like something refreshing & bright or deep & complex, the execution is impeccable.
Service:
What truly sets Numéro apart is the service. Despite the bar being at capacity, the staff remained incredibly friendly & very attentive. I really loved all the high-end touches. I've got to admit that you are well taken care of from the moment you walk through the door!
I am looking forward to returning very soon! Thank you Numéro for a great evening out 🙌🏻

My wife & I were visiting from Ottawa & came here on a friend's recommendation-& wow, this bar absolutely delivered. Incredible riffs on classic cocktails, particularly the Old Fashioned, paired with amazing service, great music & all-around immaculate vibes. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Montreal.

Top notch across the board. The attention to detail is like no other place I've been to in Montreal. It's an experience from start to finish. Alex & his crew really deliver. If I could give it 6 stars I would!
Really enjoyed the cocktails I've had an Numero. A refreshing concept, with a lot of creativity! Their signature cocktails are the stars of the show, but you should also try your fave classic cocktails with their own twist on it!
Très beau bar avec une super ambiance. Les cocktails sont originaux & différents des autres endroits, j'ai vraiment aimé. Le décor & la lumière sont magnifiques, la musique était très bonne aussi. Service impeccable. Parfait pour une soirée relax !
This bar easily rivals any from New York. The drinks were innovative & leaned on the savory, which we really enjoyed. Had the best absolute time with my girls on our trip here, we were fans of every drink we tried. Kalila is not only funny & sweet, but also makes one of the best (tiny) & smoothest martinis I've ever had. She also gave us a great dinner recommendation nearby, basically making our last evening in Montréal so enjoyably delicious. Shoutout to Kalila if you're reading this!
A must try in montreal!!
Some of the highest level mixology i have come across, next to many of the best bars in the world in Bangkok. Everything no matter was perfectly balanced yet complex & unique. The vibes are so correct.
I am obsessed with the peche origane (left) & the glow on (right) wow what flavours & mouth feel!! cherry bomb was also very unique & well made just not my personal favourite though it is perfect

Super belle ambiance, parfaite pour une date ou un nightcap. L'endroit est esthétique & on s'y sent bien pour discuter & prendre le temps. Félix au bar est très attentif aux préférences pour les cocktails & s'ajuste facilement, ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus agréable. J'ai aussi apprécié les petites attentions, comme le verre d'eau toujours rempli. Je recommande le Tommy Biscoff & le Presto.
This location is so scorpio coded lol the way it is almost hidden. We went here after I performed for my concert
Anyway,
I had the hangover cure mocktail twice which was phenomenal. So good. Sweetness but not overly sweet, & fresh! My friend had 2 different drinks which she has been here before. She loves Numero. The chips with the ham & hot peppers were nice & fun & the service was impeccable. Our server was a Libra & he was super cute ( not single, sorry ladies )
Restrooms were clean & the location altogether was very clean & kind of night vibes for a vampire to hang lmao
No, but I would definitely go back ( for mocktails & maybe try other snacks )
Honestly such a nice place with high quality cocktails & an atmosphere to match. Had such a great experience & service with one of the best staffs around, I highly recommend & will be going back
