During our visit to Montreal, we stumbled upon Bernards for late-night drinks. Their staff & bartenders were absolutely incredible. They were friendly, welcoming, & extremely talented--even going out of their way to make us something customized & unique. We loved it so much we had to come back for their Drag Brunch,'Scrambled Legs', on Sunday.

The food & drink, atmosphere, customer service, & entertainment are all a 10/10 to me & those who attended with me!

Food: 10/10
They provided some vegetarian & vegan options for both their food & drinks. One of the dishes we got was the vegan waffles which used chanterelle mushrooms to emulate chicken & waffles & it was probably the best waffles we've ever had. Overall, they have a small, but sophisticated food menu.

Atmosphere: 11/10
It is located in a beautiful building with many intricate details that lend the atmosphere a luxurious feeling. I would recommend coming to have a drink here for the atmosphere alone.

Customer Service: 11/10
The staff here really go above & beyond to ensure that everyone has a great time. Even with our food specifications, they walked us through all the options without hesitation. They're also quite humorous & entertaining themselves!

Entertainment: 10/10
We saw both a cabaret show & their drag brunch show & were thoroughly impressed with the range of acts provided!

Overall, please give Bernards a try if you are in The Village. I'd highly recommend them & will be recommending them to friends who visit Montreal.

I discovered a jewel of a place located in the heart of Montreal's village nightlife.

Here is what I wrote a friend about Bernard Gourmand Cabaret Burlesque, on this day, Friday, June 20th, officially the 1st day of summer:

About this place:
No cover charge. But you would be expected to order something to drink or eat.

There is LIVE spectacle entertainment here. The performances are dazzling & the music selection great igniting one's nostalgia for the 1940s.

I am no fan of drag queens but an occasional one performs to satisfy a diverse clientel. Tonight there were no drag queens but a burlesque Rio Carnival girl in full costume regallia performing on the floor & on the bar counter & of course a pole dancer who also used her skills on an elevated overhanging hoop from a ceiling which was incredible!

The drinks are expensive to cover the cost of the performers & entertainment. I have not yet experienced their lunch hour brunch but I expect to: performances are also LIVE at brunch.

My'querdo' portugese beer cost me $11.50 after tax per bottle but was well worth it given the quality of entertainment. I do not know how much cocktail drinks are. I had 3 beers tonight.

Somebody I invited, was supposed to show up tonight, Friday night June 20th the first day of summer officially but he never showed up. I had a good time anyway. I arrived at 8 PM & left at 10:00 p.m.

Reminds me of the film'Casablanca'.

Highly recommended! ***** 5 stars
