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.

Our first visit at Clandestino was nothing short of stellar. There was clearly attention to service. We ordered a Mezcal flight, & we went on a tasting trip even if we weren't connoisseurs; the barman/owner came over & explained each Mezcal we tasted with enough detail to tickle our curiosity. Each of them were remarkable & it was such an amazing experience. I recommend 100%

This place came highly recommended to me, & did not disappoint! The atmosphere is incredibly lively yet sophisticated which can be challenging to find on a weekend out. There was a large variety of drinks to choose from, & they were strong, delicious, & fun to watch being served (I highly recommend the drink with burning sage in it!)

Upon walking in we were greeted by Yanick who was smiling & gave great service. As we walked down to the bar I met the bartender Thomas who was fantastic, answered all my questions & took time to make me a perfect cocktail. 11/10 would recommend & will definitely be back. Thanks Clandestino!
