This is a must stop every time we visit Montreal. Jackson has been the bartender the last couple of visits & he's incredible. The type of bartender where you don't have to look at a menu. 10 out of 10

You haven't actually experienced this bar until you've had Jackson as the bartender. He is an absolute legend behind the bar & clearly loves every second of what he does.
He's incredibly chatty, personable, & is full of great recommendations for things to do in the area.
What an awesome spot! The bartender was fantastic, & I was delighted to try some stellar cocktails & new kinds of rum here! I will be visiting again next time I'm in town for sure!

Easily one of the best bars & bartenders I've been to around the world, Jackson was not only one of the best & most creative bartenders but an amazing person. I will be coming back to Montreal again just to come back here
This is my favorite bar in Montreal. Cold room downstairs is a close second. For one reason…. Jackson. Jackson is the best bartender I have ever encountered. He is the driver of the vibes & the pourer of magic. If I walk in & see Jackson the money joyfully flies from my wallet. This is a must visit.
Outstanding little bar. The bartenders are known for coming up with innovative cocktails on-the-spot --- they can even just look at you & guess what you would like without any input needed.

Had such a good time at this gem of a bar! Jackson is an amazing bartender with so much knowledge & passion for Rhum. Drinks were so delicious & he is guaranteed to create a drink that will please your preferences. Must go if you are in montreal!
Are you a tired woman who is tired of making decisions? Look no further. Bartender Jackson actually reads minds. Whether you speak French or English or maybe even Spanglish, Jackson can lock eyes with you for 2.7 seconds before telling you exactly what adult beverage your heart desires. What is this magic? It's a mystical wonder of Montreal that must be experienced. I didn't even take a picture of my drink I was so enthralled, living in the moment. But thank you Jackson for a unique Montreal encounter. I hope to be back! 💙
One of the best bars in Montreal. The service & drinks are amazing. The bartender Jackson was phenomenal!! His energy, hospitality & his creativeness with the drinks were amazing. He made our time in Montreal really special.
