Cloakroom Bar - recent news.
Reviews often mention
drink(105) cocktail(74) bar(35) bartender(26) speakeasy(25) vibe(16) unique(16) unique experience(14) intimate(12)Great atmosphere & neat space. You really have to know what you like or feel like - type of spirits, flavour profile, what alcohol you normally drink. It might be difficult for the staff to come up with something that match your mood if you don't drink much. There is a good selection of tinctures & alcohol. Friendly & knowledgeable staff.View more
Hands down best cocktail bar experience, & we've had quite a few! Very chill vibes with just the right level of musical ambience. Maximilian & Hugo were amazing at listening & delivering. I personally love ordering custom cocktails wherever I go. But Cloakroom went above & beyond anything I expected. We felt warmly welcomed since the minute we entered. Every single person in our party was blown away by every single drink we tasted. They were not only delicious but often elicited strong emotional reactions. We're out-of-towners seeking out North America's best bars, but if I lived in Montréal I honestly think I'd be a regular here! I hope the place never changes coz I'm definitely coming back in future. All the best wishes to the Cloakroom & its cocktail artists.View more
The cocktails here are objectively great & I understand exactly why this place made the'best bar' lists-the no menu shtick, clean minimalist vibe of the space & cocktails, & polished service lend themselves naturally to those kind of upper crust rankings. The bartenders who discuss your preferences in order to select cocktails are efficient, almost to a fault, to the point that I felt a little boxed in. I appreciate the difficulty of the no menu concept & that you have to distill folks' tastes down into convenient boxes, but'spirit forward gin' doesn't inherently mean Negroni or martini, so I was a little surprised by the rigidity of the drink planning conversation. I can't help but compare it to another small but well known'no menu' bar in town, where my drink-planning conversation was much more organic. Yes, that bartender talked about his own personal favorites & ingredients he was experimenting with & thus placed himself into the conversation more, but it felt much more intimate & personal that way & I've got to say that I preferred that experience to Cloakroom's more sanitized one. That being said, I did end up with 2 delicious drinks at Cloakroom (plus the welcome drink-a really nice touch), but there was nothing else particularly memorable about the experience. The drinks are so balanced (again, objectively great), but there's nothing to make you say'wow'-no surprising moment in the drink, no charming garnish, & those small moments are what make a drink truly memorable in my eyes, & that's missing here. Sometimes I think this is a fault of being a part of the elite list of'the best'-is some bit of character (maybe even some playfulness) lost?View more
Enjoyed the no-menu experience. The team built everything that was requested.View more
Tucked away, as a speakeasy should be. Our experience had as wait for just a couple of minutes outside the suit store. Led through a short hallway to a great spot. The ambiance, music & team provided the perfect atmosphere. No cocktail menu, rather tell them what you like, love & dislike & they'll make a signature cocktail-just for you!
We loved everything about this experience!View more
Beautiful speak easy in Montreal. No menu but the bartenders can do vibes. I mean it. Go there, tell them what you're feeling like & you'll get it. Best cocktails I've had in MontrealView more
While my husband & I were vacationing in Montreal, we were fortunate on two occasions to get into the 25 seat speakeasy The Cloakroom. We had read about this place before leaving the states. It sure didn't disappoint on both occasions.
There is no cocktail menu. They ask you about your preferences & create a masterpiece for you.
From our two experiences we can't say enough good things about the atmosphere, cocktails & the staff. Everyone is so friendly, especially if you sit at the bar.
Thank you Hugo, Jack, Maximilian & Vincent for two wonderful nights.View more
Hit or miss. Had a few good drinks but nothing that blows you away. The presentation is minimal, mostly consisting of mumbled words in an already busy & loud space. For an establishment that first & foremost should cater to the customer's taste, I've felt rushed to come up with a drink profile, no guidance from the bartender either. When I threw a couple of ideas for a cocktail, the guy just called me out for not making sense. So if you know what you want, you'll probably have fun, but if you come in expecting a relaxed curated experience, this is not it.
Probably would go again though.View more
Lieu tres original & tres beau. Serveurs au top. Il n'y a pas de menu donc vous choisissez ce que vous souhaitez. En revanche, très decevant d'avoir vu le barman mettre du gin bombay pour un cocktail a 30 dollars (taxes & tips inclus). A ce prix, j'esperais voir un gin de meilleur qualitéView more
The experience here is a must, good for a party of 2-3View more
A hidden gen in the heart of Montréal. Perfectly bilingual staff offering impeccable cocktails, intimate ambiance & top-tier service. We particularily enjoyed chatting with other cocktail lovers sitting around us! The only hiccup we encountered was that we noticed someone had taken our brand new umbrella from the entrance once we departed. Something to keep in mind.View more
2nd time here & it was as great as the first time, will continue coming here for more!View more
Cloakroom was such a great experience. Each drink is made personally from scratch after chatting with the bartender about what you like, so every cocktail feels like a fun surprise. The drinks were creative & delicious. It's a small place & can be hard to get into, but totally worth it. The bar itself looks amazing & the atmosphere is top-notch. Would definitely love to go back.View more
A very unique experience.
No menu. You simply tell them what you like & they have a decision tree about what drink to make.
Through talking with the bartender, I learned of a couple new drink ideas.
Great service, intimate atmosphere, well designed drinks. You won't be disappointed.View more
LOVED IT !
Perfect speakeasy vibe.

The cocktails both n/a & spirited were sooo good !!!View more
Fantastic, the best drinks & service in Montreal.View more
This speskeasy was a great little discovery to finish our trip. Cool vibes & great drinks made especially to your taste!View more
The drinks were fantastic, the atmosphere certainly fit the vibe, & the speakeasy nature was certainly nailed.
However, the drinks were outrageously expensive. There's not a world in which these drinks are worth more than $30 each. Take that in for a second, $30 EACH. I'm sorry, but that's a straight up scam.View more
It's a fantastic bar with a unique no menu setup. They ask you questions & make a custom cocktail for you. I go about every other week & I've been inviting people to share this place with!View more
