Overall Impression:
An institution in Montréal's live music scene, authentic, inclusive, & unapologetically energetic.
What I liked:
Les Foufounes Électriques brings me right back to the alternative rock scene of the 1990s. I didn't grow up in Montréal or visit in my youth, but this is one of the few places that truly captures the spirit of that era in a way that still feels genuine today.
It somehow manages to honour that time while remaining relevant for both my generation & those discovering it now. You'll find punks, goths, metalheads, & music lovers of all kinds here… along with people of all identities & orientations. It's a place where everyone belongs.
Come solo, as a couple, or with a group… the space easily accommodates all.
Atmosphere & vibe:
Located in the Quartier des Spectacles, it's centrally positioned near theatres, restaurants, & other nightlife spots, including the nearby Village.
Expect it to be loud & lively. If you're looking for a quiet drink, this probably isn't the place. But if you want energy, live music, & a crowd that feels part of something shared, it delivers.
Keep an eye out for shows as well. While I haven't attended one yet, I've certainly heard them from downstairs while enjoying a drink.
Service:
Service is usually quick & friendly.
On one occasion, a new member of the security staff didn't allow us to sit on the patio with our small dog after we had already ordered drinks… despite having done so many times previously. It was a minor inconvenience & likely the result of someone new to the role, & not something that would deter us from returning.
Who this is good for:
Anyone looking for a high-energy, inclusive venue with a strong sense of identity & history in Montréal's alternative music scene.
Closing:
A genuinely unique space that continues to bring people together across generations.
best punk bar in the city :) the place is enormous, & they host a variety of cool events like punk rock flea markets & drum & bass shows.
Super ambiance de part la décoration & la musique. Par contre il faut apprécier le rock voir le métal. Les cocktails & bière sont peu chères.
Par contre je ne recommande pas de prendre du vin ici.
Bar rock très réputé à Montréal, l'accueil est sympa & il y a un grand choix de bière.
N'hésitez pas à y aller voir un concert 🤘
I first came here in the 1980s & had the time of my life. This legendary location continues to rock!
My absolute favorite bar in Montréal! The music is great (punk, rock & metal but you will survive!), the beer selection is good & the beer is cheap! They also have a venue upstairs for shows & nice, green terrasse in the back! A non-nogotiable if you are visiting Montréal!
I've been looking for a place with rock concerts & local bands for a while now. This is definitely the place. The audience seemed to be over 30, but I went to a Pearl Jam cover show, so don't take that unique experience as a basis for the audience that frequents the place. But the atmosphere is really cool. On the second floor where the show is taking place, there are some free arcade games, as well as a pool table & a table football. The sound is really good, & the quality of the bands that played was incredible!!!! The only thing that wasn't perfect for me was the delay in starting the shows. This, in particular, frustrated me a little, but it didn't detract from the quality of the connection at all. However, for the next show, I'll be prepared for some delay.
Pas le genre d'endroit auquel je m'attendais. C'est surtout fait pour les adeptes. Bienvenue aux amateurs de Rock qui aiment écouter la musique trop fort...
