Review Summary

Bar Renard is widely recognized as a vibrant and popular destination in the Village, celebrated for its electrifying atmosphere, stylish decor, and spacious terrace. Many patrons appreciate the friendly staff, delicious sharing plates, and creative cocktail menu, which often serves as a highlight of the experience. While the venue is praised for its inclusive and energetic vibe, feedback frequently points to challenges regarding the limited interior space, which can become crowded and hot during peak hours, as well as inconsistencies in service speed and drink quality. Despite occasional frustrations with wait times and cooling issues, many guests consider it a reliable and enjoyable spot for socializing, dancing, or relaxing with friends.

Not a lot of choice but the wine was good. Went from cozy to very crowded in the span of 2 hours. We went for a 5@7

Service pourri! Dimanche soir, que 5 clients. 3 employés qui se servent des shots & qui discutent & redolent entre eux. Je me suis assis à une table. J'ai attendu 20 minutes sans être servi. J'ai quitté. Je ne reviendrai plus.

Personnellement, je n'ai rien contre le Renard, l'ambiance est sympa, la musique est bonne, le service est assez rapide pour la quantité de consommateurs vs. Le nombre d'employés, & en été la terrasse rajoute au charme de l'endroit.

Seul bémol, chaque fois que j'y ai commandé un verre (la plupart du temps un rhum&coke), j'ai plus souvent été déçu que satisfait, du fait que le drink était « flat » ( le pétillant du Coca-Cola est absent, accentuant le goût du rhum).

N'empêche, la place est souvent crowdy & entre amis, c'est l'un des beaux bars du Village à être :)

Belle ambiance mais espace étroit & peu salubre. Les toilettes ne semblent pas très potables

Paris attitude seems out of order in Montreal but unfortunately we have been seeing more of it lately !! - The bartender handed me my drink after another staff member had thrown a straw in it to taste my drink.- I complained & was ignored....little did they know that I had arrived early to host 14 other friends for a double birthday celebration.......I re-directed my guests to another Bar where we had a fabulous time. - Renard is now blacklisted ! - Regarding Renard reply: the practice of tasting customers drinks is unacceptable & plain Rude ! You can choose your policies & we can pick where to spend our money....not at Renard for sure !

Very small bar with limited space. Drinks were ok, nothing special. They dont take reservations either. Kind of like a club bar hybrid is what they are going for. Food was good. Service was good but the female waitress gave a bit of attitude at first when asking for a better table.
