Guests engage directly with the staff to navigate a personalized menu devoid of traditional printed lists. This venue functions primarily as a sophisticated destination for those seeking technical precision in drink preparation within a secluded environment.

Review Summary

Cloakroom Bar is widely celebrated as a premier speakeasy in Montreal, known for its intimate atmosphere and unique, menu-less concept where talented bartenders craft bespoke cocktails based on individual flavor preferences. While most visitors praise the personalized service, high-quality ingredients, and sophisticated, cozy vibe that makes it an excellent choice for dates or small groups, others note that the venue is quite small, often resulting in wait times and a crowded environment. Perspectives on value vary, as some patrons find the high prices justified by the premium experience and exclusivity, while others feel the cost does not always align with the simplicity of the presentation or the occasional inconsistency in service. Overall, it remains a highly recommended destination for those seeking an immersive and creative cocktail experience.

My wife & I came by for the custom craft of the bar, & our waiter Marcello was incredibly welcoming & knowledgeable to guide us in our cocktail selections. Highly recommend spot if you're a visitor or local

Fun & sophisticated small speakeasy. All drinks are custom. No menu

The drinks were absolutely subpar. For a place that customises your drinks based on your preferences, they truly missed every single time. I am not sure how this place is ranked number one when I have been to bars which are far better & rank way lower. Overall, do not recommend.

While the concept of tailoring drinks to a guest's taste is interesting, the execution fell short. The cocktail we were served lacked balance, & the beer (a bottled Miller) was oddly served in a champagne glass. When we asked for a different, specific drink to replace the one we didn't enjoy, the staff's attitude became incredibly indifferent. There was no apology or attempt to make us feel welcome, & we felt ignored for the rest of our visit. Though the prices were fair, the customer service was highly disappointing.

Visited solo for the experience & was absolutely blown away by the 5-star service! From the moment you walk in, the welcoming hospitality is top-notch. They have a separate, very classy room for jackets & give you a numbered card for your seating-a really cool, premium touch. There is no set menu; instead, the staff asks what flavors you prefer & custom-crafts a drink just for you. They have fantastic non-alcoholic options as well which i took! It's an intimate, small space but offers a truly impressive, world-class experience! It is expensive though! Expect a 30 something dollar for drink.

Such a cool spot! When visiting Montreal I visited Cloakroom Bar & would definitely go again whenever I'm in the city. An intimate, beautiful space & warm, friendly service from everyone we encountered.
No menu as they will customize a drink based on your preferences, & every drink our group ordered was incredible! Beautifully crafted, delicious & I love how they make many ingredients in house. Can't wait to visit again!

Nice & cozy atmosphere. The mixologists know what they are doing. They will ask you a few questions & create a customized drink based on what you answer. Great place for a date. A bit pricey but worth it.

Clockroom Bar feels like a hidden gem, tucked beside a tailor shop. We were lucky to get in with no wait, but there was a line when we left.

The concept is great - no menu, just tell them your preferences & they create a custom cocktail. Mine was sweet & fruity, & I loved it. Service was smooth, & they even took our coats at the entrance.

The only downside is the space - it's very small & can feel cramped, with limited seating options (you sit side by side). Great experience overall, just not ideal if you want more comfort or privacy.
