Review Summary

Barfly is widely regarded as an authentic, gritty, and unpretentious dive bar in Montreal that serves as a vibrant hub for musicians, locals, and visitors alike. Known for its laid back atmosphere, the venue features live music performances, a popular pool table, and a character filled interior adorned with graffiti and memories. While many patrons praise the welcoming energy, communal vibe, and affordable drinks, some feedback highlights concerns regarding inconsistent service experiences and aggressive tipping practices. Overall, it remains a beloved staple for those seeking a raw, genuine, and social environment that feels deeply rooted in the city's creative music scene.

Si je pouvais je mettrais zéro, je le ferais . La bartender est extrêmement désagréable. Dès notre arrivée, elle tourne les yeux en l'air lorsque nous lui demandons s'il y a des toilettes.Elle nous pointe la toilette & nous suit. Après le tout, elle se fâche en demandant si nous allons prendre quelque chose à boire, alors qu'elle ne nous l'avait pas
imposé avant d'y aller. Elle s'exprime de manière insolente. Belle façon de repousser toute clientèle. Nous serions restés volontiers si elle nous avait montré le moindre respect.
