Overall Impression:

An unapologetically authentic Montréal dive bar… gritty, welcoming, & deeply rooted in the city's music scene.

What I liked:

My wife & I discovered Barfly within a few days of moving to Montréal. Having always had an affinity for dive bars, I knew instantly this was a place for me.

It's a small space, a pool table, a few tables, a long bar, a stage, cheap beer & real people. No pretence. Just a place where locals come to connect.

It's also the kind of spot where visitors quickly feel at home. Conversations happen easily, & it's not unusual to leave having met new people.

During a Habs game, the energy runs through the whole bar… loud, engaged, & shared.

Barfly is clearly a place for musicians & people who love music. It has long been part of Montréal's local scene, with live bands, open mic nights, & bluegrass evenings adding to its character.

Atmosphere & vibe:

Raw, lively, & unfiltered. This is not a curated experience… it's a real one.

Tight, noisy, & full of personality in the best possible way.

Who this is good for:

Anyone who appreciates a genuine, unpretentious dive bar with strong character & a connection to local music.

If you're looking for something polished or upscale, this isn't it. But if you're laid-back & want something real, this place delivers.

Closing:

A place we were drawn to immediately, & one that continues to feel like a true Montréal staple.

Debit machine has tip options of 19% & 23% both way higher than is customary.
If u give less you will get a snarky remark from the server. Weird way to do business. It is a graduity not a fee.

1. I won't come back here.
2. I won't be tipping if I have to come to the bar or for take-out.

I've been a server before. They get guaranteed minimum wage like everyone else. Stop this nonsense.
