J'y étais samedi le 15 juillet & franchement, j'ai passé un excellent moment. J'ai pris un Bloody Caesar & un Kamikaze shot, les deux étaient vraiment bons & à un super prix. Le service du bouncer/doorman & des bartenders était attentif & nice. La musique était excellente, l'ambiance/ décoration du bar est géniale & c''était ma première fois ici. Je reviendrai sans hésiter. Un vrai bon spot OG à Montréal.

They have the worst bartenders. There are two or three of them that always have attitude & it's like why work with people if you're going to be like that.

The bar & venue were great, great shows put on & a good price. Event bartender was super nice & friendly, but the short blonde haired bartender downstairs was very unfriendly & rude, a lot of customers there I talked to said the same thing about her. Asked what was on tap because half of them were in French & we were also on the side of the bar (the taps were in the front of the bar) & we couldn't read them. & she goes'whatever you can see is what we have' & we explained that we couldn't read them & she goes'Budweiser isn't French' & ignored what I said about the position that we were in. Rest of the night she gave us attitude & crappy service, we still did tip though.

Great venue, enjoyed the show. I met quite possibly the kinkiest girl ever. Bathrooms have CBGB vibes. Bartender was a great mixologist.

Refused to serve my friend, bartenders are doing shots in the back & made eye contact multiple times with said friend yet ignored them for about 20 minutes until we got sick of it & left. Definitely not an inclusive space at all which is ironic because this bar is a self proclaimed'alternative bar'. Clearly this title is outdated since the staff seem to have no issue discriminating customers. 0/10 i don't recommend

I came here with friends last night & while the atmosphere is pretty decent & the place was lively, the staff was extremely condescending. The bouncer was rude to us & the bartenders ignored my girlfriend for 15 minutes (until she gave up on getting service) despite making eye contact with her several times. When the rest of my group did get service, they were very short with us & generally unpleasant. I don't know if we did something to get this kind of treatment but I highly doubt we were being disruptive. The only thing that comes to mind is the fact that we were all pretty young (19-20 years old) & maybe that kind of crowd is not welcomed here, but we weren't rowdy or anything like that. I'm not one to tone police service workers, especially on a busy night, I can fully understand why things would take longer/the staff would be more stressed, but even with that in mind, it was excessive.
