Cloakroom Bar

The Cloakroom Bar is genuinely one of the best cocktail experiences I've ever had - & the accolades back it up. Ranked #2 bar in Canada & #31 in North America, this intimate 25-seat gem in Montreal's Golden Square Mile is the real deal.

What makes it truly special is the no-menu approach. You tell the bartender what you're in the mood for - a spirit, a flavour profile, a vibe - & they craft something extraordinary just for you. The collection of rare vintage spirits, including some truly remarkable aged amari & bourbons sourced from European cellars, is unlike anything you'll find elsewhere in the city.

The atmosphere is warm, intimate, & quietly sophisticated - the kind of place where time slows down & every sip feels considered. Beverage director Andrew Whibley & the team are passionate, knowledgeable, & genuinely love what they do.

If you care about cocktails at all, this is a non-negotiable stop in Montreal. One of a kind.

Speakeasy vraiment sympa. La salle n'est pas très grande mais on était bien installé. Pas de carte, vous dites ce que vous aimez & le bartender improvise un cocktail. J'en ai pris un sans alcool, & il était excellent également.

Drinks are good, but it is quite crowded. The bartenders were kind, the hostess was not super kind or welcoming

I love this place. Shout out to Ulysse (spelling?) for the absolutely outstanding hospitality. He made me feel welcome & at home (when I was attending solo). & he made the best cocktails.

I highly recommend. Staff here is phenomenal. Just make sure you know what you like. Important as you need to tell the bartenders.

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.
