Review Summary

Bootlegger Cocktail Bar & Cuisine earns praise for its creative cocktails, an impressive whiskey selection, and a welcoming, knowledgeable staff that can turn a visit into a memorable experience; the venue combines a stylish speakeasy vibe with vintage decor, live jazz, and a focus on fresh ingredients and precise mixology, including oysters during happy hours. Across many reviews, the atmosphere and drinks are highlighted as consistently well balanced and thoughtfully crafted, while occasional notes of slower service, crowding, or higher prices appear, along with occasional menu quirks or dishes that miss the mark; overall the place is seen as unique and worth returning to for the drinks, the ambience, and the sense of discovery it provides.

Definitely recommend going for happy hour. Enjoyed the 1$ oyster special. PEI Oysters were delicious & the house made habanero was great. Shoutout to Tony for impeccable service & Vincent for amazing cocktails. Will revisit next time i'm in Montreal.

Pedro, Pete & Peter sont tous excellent! Meilleur service de mixologie à Montreal.

The burger, though modest in size, didn't quite justify its price due to the lower quality of the meat. However, the restaurant made up for it with a generous portion of potato wedges & a fresh, well-prepared salad, both of which were delightful. The drinks were exceptional, & the service was attentive. The decor & atmosphere created a warm & inviting ambiance, making the experience enjoyable. I would consider returning.

August 2024: pleasant service from Tony. Music was a little boring this time around even on a Friday late night. Blood & Sand was a nice cocktail. May 2024: Smoking Lisa & IDK were great. The minty mocktail had a bit of a mouthwash taste to it. Music was top notch, we were dancing in our chairs. Service was pretty slow this time around unfortunately. December 2023: Fun decor, gold rush was a good cocktail, jungle was alright. Service was friendly & attentive. My friend enjoyed his martini.

Beautiful bar & great experience overall. We reserved tables for 10pm on Saturday night & got to enjoy beautiful cocktails. It's a lot of fun watching the mixologists make these drinks. The ambience is very chill & cool decor also. Def worth a stop.

They did not have the drinks they recommended & had on the menu, the food was not good at all. Nachos was the only good thing

Cool bar! Our server Felix was amazing. Oysters were delicious. Burgers with foie gras were very good but it was cold. All in all we had a great time.

Cool vibes & great service - Remy & Tony were so friendly & made our night! On the weekend make a reservation at least a couple hours in advance because it gets busy.
