Quoi dire du Clandestino. Cet établissement super cozy, avec un staff magifique & une liste de cocktail à faire rêver.
Ce qui était supposer être un petit verre rapide un lundi soir est rapidement devenu une tradition. Finir le travail & déguster un Calsa verde! On parle maintenant des lundi clandestino ou des'calsa Mondays'
Hands down the best cocktail bar ever. Mind officially baffled, taste buds permanently altered. Somehow every'quick drink' turns into an unforgettable night.
Big shoutout to the team for always bringing the best vibes, service, & cocktails! :)

Le Clandestino est clairement devenu mon speakeasy préféré à Montréal.
L'ambiance est incroyable : intime, élégante & authentique, avec une vraie identité autour du Mezcal & de la Tequila. On sent immédiatement la passion derrière chaque cocktail & chaque recommandation.
La sélection de mezcals est impressionnante, autant pour les amateurs que pour ceux qui veulent découvrir cet univers. Les cocktails sont travaillés, équilibrés & pleins de caractère. Mention spéciale à l'équipe qui connaît parfaitement ses produits & prend le temps de conseiller selon les goûts de chacun.
Un endroit rare avec une vraie personnalité, parfait pour passer une soirée dans une ambiance chaleureuse & différente des bars classiques. Une adresse incontournable pour tous les amateurs de spiritueux mexicains.
Clandestino is one of my favourite places in Montreal. Amazing to have a date or to hangout with friends. It's cosy, with a little bit of ambience & the staff is incredibly nice. They have an amazing selection of tequila & mezcal!
Thomas made our night at this gem of a speakeasy in Vieux Montreal unforgettable. From the start, he was warm, welcoming & incredibly knowledgeable. After just a few questions, he served up a selection of Mezcals & Tequilas that were unique & perfectly selected.
What truly stood out was his attentiveness & genuine personality & knowlege of his craft.
He elevated the entire experience.
I would go back in a heartbeat specifically because of his service. If you get a seat at his hard to find bar, you're in for something special & unforgettable.
Speakeasy style basement bar under a glow of red lights. Super cool. These were the best tequila drinks we've ever had. Try the old fashioned style one infused with duck fat from Bonaparte across the street.
Cool atmosphere & great service. My cocktail was the most expensive one on the menu but it didn't impress me. My boyfriend's cocktail though was delicious. So, I'll know what to order next time!

Hidden cocktail bar, lots of sofa/lounge seating. Mezcal specialties, & I enjoyed my mango/passionfruit cocktail.
$4 coat check was deeply annoying. Music choice was not for me.
Loved this bar & the lighting. 1920s flair. They have tequila flights, & tequila that tastes like wine. Amazing atmosphere & intimate. Couch seating, & you're still able to hear & enjoy the conversations. Only downside is limited phone service due to it being downstairs.
