Bootlegger Cocktail Bar & Cuisine est largement salué pour ses cocktails créatifs, une excellente sélection de whiskies et une ambiance speakeasy accueillante avec un service attentif; le lieu offre des cocktails bien équilibrés, des huîtres en happy hour et une atmosphère chaleureuse et intime qui en fait une adresse idéale pour un rendez vous, entre amis ou un moment plus posé, agrémentée de concerts de jazz live le dimanche. Certaines notes mentionnent un service parfois irrégulier ou lent, des prix élevés et des incohérences dans certains plats, mais dans l'ensemble l'impression générale est celle d'un endroit unique et remarquable, un vrai coup de cœur pour les amateurs de cocktails et pour l'ambiance rétro.
Excellent service & drinks! The staff is absolutely lovely (& hilarious!), promptly answering any questions we had & kindly indulging us in conversation. We will be back again to try more drinks, some food, & enjoy the live music :)
I rarely write bad reviews but im writing this for the safety of consumers. I ordered oysters. I immediately noticed that they smelled sort of like a dirty bathroom. I'm from the coast of maine. I know oysters should not smell. Especially like that. I knew they were bad & sent them back. Politely I may add. & they STILL CHARGED ME for them. Plus, they need to learn how to better shuck an oyster as well. Then, my friends & I ordered a pour of cask strength whiskey. Being part of a whisky club & having tried many whiskies, that was not cask strength. & not only was it not cask strength, it tasted like a gold rum. We Politely asked to see the bottle that he poured from & he wouldn't show us. Then he reluctantly told us he did not pour the cask strength whiskey we ordered. So, naturally we asked the tender to pour us what we ordered, & he had the scruples to ask us if we were going to pay for both. Technically he had already committed theft & fraud. So, no we were not going to pay for something we did not order. It's one thing to just have a one off or a bad night at a restaurant/bar, but this was just unsafe, unacceptable, & bad for business as a consumer. Unfortunately this will not be a business I will tell others in the industry or in my community to visit. Although my friends see it as a funny story, I'd prefer to stay alive & know what im eating & or drinking at all times.
I came in on a Wednesday night vibes were immaculate, got surprised by a jazz band,! i was welcomed by the LOVELY Rita sat at the bar in front of Tyler, made fantabulous drinks hit all the the tongue palates then Paul makes amazing creations. Just to mention RITA one more time, she's hilarious.
Drinks overpriced. Advertised as a jazz bar with live performances, there were no live performers nor jazz or blues music related to the theme of the bar. If you're willing to spend a lot on a night out, this is your place.. otherwise, there are options with better atmosphere, affordable food & drinks.

We had a great experience at Bootlegger! Remi was very knowledgeable about the drinks & super kind to us! We had fun & learned a bit about Whiskey in the process.
We ate here on a recent trip to Montreal. My wife likes to keep busy & she knows I like jazz so we just took a shot on this place. The jazz trio was fantastic. Ask for Remi. He helped us with our drink orders all night & was very helpful & informative.
Drinks & food were fine & the atmosphere was great.
That said, I over heard a server speaking very rudely & being racist towards to another table which soured my experience. I'm not sure if I would come again because of that.

Kinda bunk! Basically ignored by waiter. Food fine. Drinks fine. Atmosphere pretty vibeless / Homesense-ass decor + old photos (the old photos were spooky yet cool). Go to Majestique instead seriously
$30 for cucumbers & bread that supposed to be a Salmon gravlax!! It was very disappointing (just look at the picture )I was sitting at the bar counter & not even that way I could get offered a drink for the first 15 minutes.It's sad because the place is beautiful, the ambiance is cool & the cocktail was good.
A wonderful experience & quite fascinating! The staff were all great & the DJ was exceptional. The bartenders were extremely talented, fun to watch, & professional. The food was delicious & the best I've ever had at any bar. The drinks were all very good, although not much alcohol in the cocktails. Kudos to the chef(s). Overall, a splendid evening!
Premiere fois au Bootlegger, petite anicroche au niveau de l'acceuil, nous avions reservé pour 17h, & quand nous sommes arrivés, l'endroit n'était pas exactement prêt pour nous accueillir. Nous avons attendu un bon 10 minutes dans le petit lobby avant le meuble d'accueil sans trop être pris en charge, personne n'est venu nous voir pour simplement signifier que ca ne serait pas long. Nous avons finalement été placés vers 17h10, les premiers drinks ont mis beaucoup de temps a arriver étant donné qu'on voyait les employés toujours en préparation d'ouverture. Pour le service, bien rattrapé par Victor, & les huîtres sont franchement impressionantes pour des huîtres happy hour a 1$
Really cool spot! We were added to the waitlist since the restaurant was full, but it only took about half an hour to be alerted for a table.
I would recommend trying their absinthe-based cocktails. I ordered their Starry Night Van Gogh-inspired cocktail which was really fantastic. The outside of the glass had some fine sugar which gave the appearance of a starry sky. The taste was amazing, & it was not excessively strong for my liking.
My partner ordered their Sin City cocktail, but was not quite as impressed with it because the beetroot syrup was a bit overpowering. It was still a cool drink though.
The atmosphere is really cool, with eclectic decor all around & good music. It was quite loud & tables are close together, so you had to almost yell to talk. I was okay with this since it was a Saturday night at a bar.
I mean, j'ai vu d'autres bar a cocktail similaire 🤔 Still great, dont get me wrong, mais j'espère que t'as du cash à mettre en titi dans ton alcoolisme pour boire là-bas lol
5* mais perso je pense pas y retourner sauf si je gagne a la loterie lol
