I cannot speak highly enough of this place - the bartenders & service are always exceptional, as are the drinks. Every new friend or family member I bring falls in love with it, too.

The smallest bar in Canada specializing in rum-based cocktails - & easily one of the coziest. It may be tiny, but it's warm, lively, & full of charm. Even if you're not a rum drinker, don't worry; Jackson will convert you after just one (& probably a few more) of his incredible creations. It's the kind of place you fall in love with for its intimacy, its magical service, & its unforgettable cocktails. You'll always have 3 reasons to come back: Jackson's charm, the amazing cocktails & the fun atmosphere.

What can I say? The'Smallest Bar' in Canada had the biggest impact on my stay in Montreal! Popped in because the line to Cold Room was a bit long & we never left. The bartender Jackson was a HUGE personality for such a small space. Amazing presence behind the bar. Excellent product knowledge & a true skill in the cocktail game. We loved it so much on our first night, we closed the place the next night! MUST HIT IN MONTREAL!

Amazing night! Tristan creates an incredibly welcoming environment. Drinks are excellent, great conversation, & an amazing ambiance. Did you know it is the smallest bar in the whole of Canada??Definitely worth visiting, especially on a Wednesday night to get a very personalized experience. Très bon! 🧉
