Chez Ernest - Comptoir de curiosités is described as a visually striking, eclectic venue with a cabinet of curiosities vibe and a steady stream of themed nights that make it a great place to gather with friends for stand up, improv, swing nights and live music, with atmosphere and decor repeatedly highlighted as outstanding while drinks, especially cocktails and the distinctive absinthe selection, are praised for quality and originality and prices are considered reasonable; many reviews note friendly, attentive staff and a welcoming mood, though some point to slower service at times, a smaller food menu and limited beer choices, occasional hygiene concerns or uneven experiences with staff, and a sense that energy can be loud or vary by event. Taken together, the impression is that Chez Ernest offers a memorable, dynamic nightlife experience with strong decor, creative drinks and frequent events that keep the space fresh, making it a go-to spot for a lively evening in Montreal.
Je ne rien dire à propos de la bouffe, car j'ai seulement consommé de la boisson. Le service est bien,l'ambiance est super. Peu de choix de bières & certains types d'alcool restreint pour avantager les produits locaux. Je comprend je suis pour le local, mais c'est décourageant d'y retourner.
Dernièrement, j'ai remarqué le manque d'hygiène de la part des serveurs lors de mes 2-3 visites à des mois d'intervalles.
