Review Summary

Les Foufounes Électriques is widely regarded as an essential, legendary institution within Montréal's alternative music scene, celebrated for its authentic underground spirit and high-energy atmosphere. Visitors frequently praise the venue for its diverse lineup of punk, metal, and hard rock performances, its affordable beer prices, and its spacious multi-level layout that includes a popular summer terrace. While the majority of guests appreciate the unique, grit-filled aesthetic and inclusive community vibe that spans generations, experiences with customer service are occasionally inconsistent, with some patrons reporting excellent, professional interactions and others encountering rude or inattentive staff. Despite occasional complaints regarding service speed or security, the venue remains a beloved staple for music fans who value its raw, historical character and its enduring role as a gathering place for the city's alternative subcultures.

Too bad customer service. Only one waitress in Saturdays?

Toujours un plaisir de passer une soirée aux Foufounes Électriques.
C'est le repaire parfait pour les amateurs de bonne musique (rock, métal, punk) & d'ambiance décontractée.
?Prix très compétitifs sur la bière & les pichets.
?Personnel efficace au bar malgré l'achalandage des grands soirs.
?Une terrasse arrière incontournable pour la saison estivale.
?L'esprit underground de Montréal est bien vivant ici.
Un établissement authentique à découvrir ou à redécouvrir.

Toujours agréable d'aller aux Foufounes, prix compétitif, oeuvres d'arts troublants & événements intéressants.

Depuis les rénovations il y a quelques années, le concept est agréable & il y a plus de place pour différents événements. Parfois même plusieurs en même temps!

Une décennie de bons souvenirs pour moi à chaque fois que j'y remet les pieds.

Je viens juste de sortir des foufs ,histoire de m'abreuver par cette'douce' chaleur , je commande une hoegardenn à la préposé, elle tire la bière & la montre à sa collègue car elle l'a trouvais bizarre, elle goûte, hausse les épaules l'air de dire ça ira bien & quand je lui signifie que j'ai commandé une bière & non pas un jus d'abricots elle me dit' t'as qu'à goûter' donc je serais obligé de payer. Je suis parti en la laissant avec son fond de fût .........

The place is great but after waiting more than 15 minutes with the waiters ignoring us, we decided to go to drink somewhere else.
