Maison Cloakroom is forged on the belief that clothing is an extension and expression of self - that it speaks to our tastes, our values and our ideas. That it says everything without saying anything. That it allows us to define who we are. Blending classic and contemporary, with an emphasis on craftsmanship, The Cloakroom makes tailored and casual clothes that allow men to define who they are.
Les avis présentent Cloakroom Bar comme un speakeasy intime et élégant, sans menu et avec des cocktails personnalisés selon les goûts et l’humeur, ce qui donne des boissons créatives et souvent parfaitement équilibrées. L’expérience repose sur l’écoute du client et l’art des barmans, dans un espace petit et sombre où l’attente peut être nécessaire et où la convivialité du service est largement louée, même si quelques visiteurs trouvent le lieu trop serré ou l’attente trop longue. Le prix est parfois pointé du doigt, certains jugeant le coût élevé pour la quantité d’alcool, mais beaucoup estiment que le caractère sur mesure et l’ambiance raffinée justifient l’investissement. Globalement, l’endroit est perçu comme unique, offrant une atmosphère chaleureuse et des cocktails qui feront parler d’eux, idéal pour des pre ou post dîner, avec une préférence marquée pour ceux en quête d’une expérience personnalisée et d’une ambiance cosy, tout en admettant que ce n’est peut-être pas le choix le plus pratique pour de grands groupes ou pour passer une soirée sans attendre.
I used to come here when I was younger & was never that impressed, until now. I'm sober & was invited on a date so everything I ordered was mocktails. They really knew their stuff! The customization really impressed me & the bartenders were great. My date wasn't that great but still had a great night!
Stunning memorable drinks.
The welcome drink was refreshing.
Instead of their questions our table gave single words to the bartender. The bartender aced the challenge & made us a drink based on interpretative words.
A bar for bartenders... & amateur bartenders, & everyone else of course. The expertise here far exceeded expectations. No menu, everything improvised according to your taste & preferences. 25 seats only, no reservations, but the 30min wait was absolutely worth it.
I had a wonderful time here while on a solo trip. The Australian bartender was very friendly & welcoming & made me amazing drinks. Everything I had was delicious & unique. The Christmas themed drink I requested turned out phenomenal! The space was also very cute & cozy. I will absolutely be coming back next time I'm in town!
Cozy bar, great beats, knowledgeable bar staff... They is no menu so be prepared to be surprised by the creations that the bartenders create! Note that it's small so you may have to wait for a seat at the bar.
Amazing experience here, absolutely loved the bespoke cocktails. Given that I don't love anything too sweet, it's amazing to have a great bartender listen & prepare something amazing. Skill level here is on point. If you're a bourbon or Japanese whiskey fan, they also have a great lineup of spirits. I'd go back anyday! Small space though, I went at 4:30pm with no wait but there was a lineup at 6pm when I left so be prepared :)
I'm in Montreal for a quick visit. Cloakroom bar was my favorite stop of the day. Maximilian it is the best Bartender I have ever witnessed in my life. Very personable, & extremely talented when it comes to making drinks. Be sure to get a drink, made by him when you visit!
Wanted to check out a local spot for something different. Waited about 20 minutes to get a seat. Waiters/bartenders are professional & bilingual. The vibe is cool, tiny but the tables all face the bar so you're looking at everyone's backs.
Cocktails were fun, though together with tip (18%) it was $85 CAD for one drink each. Definitely not a place to spend the night drinking, but fun for one before heading somewhere else.

The Cloakroom Cocktail Bar offers a unique, personalized experience-there's no menu. Instead, the bartender chats with you about your tastes & mood, then crafts a custom cocktail just for you. An intimate, elegant spot that turns a drink into an experience.
The Cloakroom Bar is a delightful speak-easy within walking distance to Downtown Montreal hotels.
As we walked in the old brownstone entrance, we found ourselves staring at a closed suit shop. Magically, a tall black-clad man appeared from nowhere & ushered us into a dimly lit cozy room teeming with mixologists shaking up delicious concoctions determined by your favorite liquor & flavor profiles, & the bartenders' imagination.🍸 Excellent service & cocktails!
Absolutely a 10/10 experience. Try to get a seat at the bar to see the action. The servers are lovely, but the bartenders know exactly what they're doing & ordering from them directly will only enhance your experience.

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?
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 Montreal
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.
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.
