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.
L'endroit est superbeau, les serveurs ont du professionnalisme sans précédent par contre il faut offrir en peu plus sur les cocktails,je trouve que les verres sont étroits.Mais en général,moi & mes amis ont adorés l'atmosphère & le service
Nous sommes allés un dimanche pour voir le groupe de jazz & la soirée était parfaite, le groupe était excellent, les cocktails sont à chaque fois délicieux & le service est très bon!! le staff est très chaleureux comme l'ambiance du bar. J'adore y aller pour avoir une date avec mon chum 🖤

The last time we were here it was our favorite place. We couldn't wait to come back. Sadly this time it was vastly different. The Hostess Rita was the saving grace of the night. Other than that the experience was sup par.
J'ai passé une très belle soirée d'anniversaire avec mes amis au bootleggers! Tony a été au petit soin avec nous & était un super serveur! Je recommande la place pour l'ambiance & les bons cocktails également! Merci pour cette belle soirée ☺️
Best bar on St-Laurent! The staff are absolutely phenomenal! The positive energy radiates from every corner of the room you can't escape it! If you get Antoine as your waiter expect a fabulous night!
Excellent à tous les niveaux! Le staff est accueillant, le décor est hypnotique & que dire des cocktails! Une présentation unique qui vous surprendra à tout coup!

J'ai adoré ma visite.. tout était parfait.. mon drink... vraiment excellent.. j'aimerais bien avoir la recette.. Nice Paloma.. wowww... trop bon & trop beau. Je recommande vivement...
Christ, & the entire team were nothing short of terrific! The atmosphere, music & of course our bartender, Christ, were nothing short of outstanding. We cannot have asked for a better & more special experience on our visit to Montreal. We highly recommend this special sanctuary - You will not regret it! (Having visited Cloakroom & so many other bars in Montreal, this topped the list.)
Best bar in Montreal! The music was fantastic, the decor is A+, the vibe is so awesome, the drinks are amazing & the employees are so wonderful! We particularly loved Christ (the bartender) & sitting at the bar while he & his team did their thing. It was incredible to watch. A true art form! 10/10. Must go!
I recently visited a cocktail bar & had an exceptional experience, thanks to the bartender, Christ. The atmosphere was vibrant & welcoming, perfect for a night out with friends or a relaxed evening. Christ was incredibly easy to talk to, making the experience even more enjoyable. He truly knows his craft, creating some of the best cocktails I've ever tasted. Each drink was perfectly balanced, showcasing his expertise & passion for mixology. Whether you're a cocktail connoisseur or just looking for a great place to unwind, this bar, is it! Merci Beaucoup!

During a short visit of Montreal, found this awesome cocktail bar with lit vibe of live DJ playing cool music on Saturday night. We sat at the bar & only had drinks. The cocktails were so well balanced, with clear taste & neat finishing on the look. The bartenders are professional. The bar has stylish interior designs giving great atmosphere. Definitely will come again if visiting Montreal.
Good music but even better service. Antawn was super friendly, knowledge & personable & really went above & beyond to service us. Without him, the experience definitely would not be the same.
I discovered Bar Bootlegger by googling lounges near me. The pictures & menu caught my eye so I decided to try it & they did not disappoint! Delicious drinks for all tastes that are so much fun to watch being made! I came on a Sunday night in which I had the pleasure of enjoying their live jazz music. Sadly I came too late & missed the $1 oyster deal as they ran out, so I recommend you come early for the special! Overall lovely experience!
