Super cute space with wonderful atmosphere. Tonight I felt devalued
when the server responded dismissively when I requested clarification as to whether the veggie chili was vegan - only to later receive it with sour cream on the side, which was exactly the type of thing I didn't want to be contributing to.

We were after spending a long day walking around Montreal, visited the viewing point on Mount Royale & were walking back towards our accommodation looking for some where to have an late afternoon drink. Spotted the beer taps through the open windows & headed in side. We perched ourselves at the counter & ordered the pints of Else's lager & sat enjoying a locals bar.
This visit led to two more visits for food & nothing that we had was disappointing & surprisingly very reasonable with great service for all 3 visits. It's a place not to be missed in a very cool part Montreal.

Quick service, decent drink selection, & lively atmosphere. Great spot for an afterwork, hangout with friends or even a date. It can get crowded sometimes. Small tables, I wouldn't recommend being more than 4-5 people.
