About

Cloakroom Bar operates as an intimate speakeasy concept emphasizing a bespoke approach to mixology. Expert bartenders utilize a vast inventory of premium spirits and house-made syrups to craft individualized cocktails tailored to specific guest preferences. The interior features a refined, low-lit atmosphere characterized by plush seating and an understated aesthetic that prioritizes acoustic comfort. 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. Every beverage serves as a unique composition rather than a standard rotation of popular classics. The overall focus remains strictly on the craft of the cocktail and the maintenance of a quiet, focused social space for enthusiasts of artisanal beverage culture.

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.

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.

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.

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 qualité

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.

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.

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.
