Beautiful terrasse, 100% Montreal vibes! The food was delicious & so fresh, the ambiance was fantastic with good music, not too loud, just perfect! & of course, my fav rosé is on the wine list! Definitely recommended for happy hours or a casual dinner.
I came here with my boyfriend for brunch & I loved it so much😍 I'm very picky with my matcha, but theirs was perfection! The food was excellent, great portions & amazing service! Everyone was so nice & the vibe was on point. I loved the type of music they put, we were on the terrace (beautiful btw), & the volume was perfect! Definitely coming back, for dinner this time;)
Excellent food even if the quantities are modest. But all very good. Beautiful music, excellent services & delicious rosé wine. We took a selection of cheeses which explained to us in which order to taste.
We had a nice little date night at Buvette Pastek on a Sunday evening. The food was incredible, we started with a plate of charcuterie & bread & then followed up with the tuna sashimi & the duck. The appetizer was the perfect size to share for 2 people & the main courses were plated beautiful & tasted even better than they looked. The wine list was extensive, I just wish they had more options by the glass. The cocktails we started with were nice, nothing crazy. You're definitely going to get the Old Port prices but for the evening we had it was well worth it.
Nice patio outside, beautiful decor in a great location ... but a wine bar with only two choices of red? A $37 charcuterie board with cheap prosciutto & Brie? Not bad, but also not great.
In a word, exquisite! Buvette Pastek is a true gem in the heart of Old Montreal, centrally located on rue St Paul. Beautiful, scrumptious dishes, reasonably priced & generous apportioned are served well & in a very comfy, airy, & bright decor. We were very well cared for, especially by the delightful Kathleen & our charming barista Brandon, as well as the other members of the service team. Of note were the avocado toast (truly the best I've ever had in a restaurant) & the gravlax (admittedly even better than my own homemade version). Everything sampled was truly exceptional & we were treated very, very well & never made to feel rushed, in spite of the dining room being noticeably busy. They have a lovely outdoor patio (terrasse) that looks very inviting. If you're looking for a sure win, check out this elegant & yet unpretentious restaurant for a wonderful experience of delicious food & coffee!
Beautiful bar to stop for a drink & snack while shopping in the area. The staff is attentive, & the appetizers are delicious...I really enjoyed the potatoes & cheese board.
