Our favourite little cocktail bar in Montreal. We visit every time. Mixologist Jackson is the best!! So talented & friendly. The selection of rum based drinks is incredible. Highly recommend.

My girlfriend & I found this bar on a whim & it was everything we were looking for! The atmosphere, drinks, & company were amazing! Our bartender, Jackson, was probably coolest person I've met & could talk your ear off about rum! Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a fun yet relaxing time!
Alright so here is the deal: I walked into this bar thinking'I don't really like rum' because of one bad night with the captain in college & walked out with a new appreciation for the many varied & complex flavors & types of rum. All credit goes to Jackson whose knowledge & love for the spirit shines through in the complex, balanced & just honestly delicious drinks he crafts. Cannot recommend this spot highly enough! It is a must visit!
Its hard not to have a great experience here. Naturally as Canada's smallest bar the atmosphere will be more intimate but the hospitality & drinks is what sets it apart. Can't recommend it enough. It's natural charm far surpasses it's novelty.
Well, I went with my friend & to be sincère it was an amazing expérience with Tristan. He made us a spécial mojito & special daiquiris. Best expérience 👌🙌 Recommended
Tristan was an amazing bartender! He is a great conversationalist & gave us great recommendations for drinks & a talented mixologist. I would recommend this place! He helped create a really cozy & fun environment.

First time in Montreal & I cannot recommend going anywhere else for a cozy, intimate & great atmosphere. Wil & Milee contributed to this. They both took care of us, & were delightfully inviting, attentive & friendly. Their hospitality alone makes us want to come back & spend the entire night at the bar. These two truly were the great environment that El Pequeno offers.
