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.

A beautifully hidden gem!
I was excited to try this speakeasy bar, & it did not disappoint. The atmosphere was unique & intimate, making it a perfect spot for a special night out.
The bartender was incredibly knowledgeable & offered thoughtful recommendations. While I don't have much experience with tequila or mezcal, I genuinely enjoyed trying their curated selections-it was a great introduction to both. I'd definitely come back!

This is the peak speakeasy experience & my favorite in all of Montreal. Their specialization in tequila & mezcal is so exceptional that even those that don't enjoy tequila or mezcal will appreciate the menu.

I came here years ago & was blown away by the quality of the cocktail, extensive tequila & mezcal selection, environment, & fantastic service. We come back every summer & always have a great experience - & you will too.

(Can you tell I love cocktails?)

Beautiful bar in old Montreal. Their drink selection was amazing. As a fan of mezcal & tequila, they definitely know how to prepare a drink. The staff was friendly & fun to speak with. I am amazed at the drinks they served; you can tell the amount of preparation & dedication they pour into their menu. Most definitely will come back again on my next trip to Montreal. Space is intimate & welcoming.

Le Clandestin is my absolute favorite speakeasy in the Old Port! The decor & ambiance are so dimly lit, mysterious, & intimate-you truly feel like time stops! The selection of tequila & cocktails? Just wow, wow, wow! The service is super professional, & the bartenders are absolutely top-notch. It's the perfect spot for a post-dinner cocktail, whether you're on a date or out with friends.

Definitely worth going to Clandestino's. Rare is it to find Tequila & Mezcal selections like this. With bartenders who have a deep understanding of those spirits. Will definitely go back. Sit at the bar with Michel if you can, he'll teach you a lot. ;)
