About

La Distillerie defines its identity through a signature approach to cocktail craftsmanship and focused pub fare. The establishment utilizes large-format glassware to serve meticulously prepared mixtures, emphasizing visual impact and precise ingredient layering. The menu leans into robust, comforting bar provisions designed to complement the complex botanical profiles of the drink selections. Exposed brick walls and industrial aesthetic elements define the interior atmosphere, providing a functional backdrop for the high-volume service model. The culinary focus remains on shareable, flavor-forward snacks that prioritize texture and seasoning over elaborate presentation. Each plate aligns with the beverage program to maintain a cohesive experience for patrons who prioritize quality spirits and efficient, casual service. The environment emphasizes a dynamic social atmosphere where the interaction between artisanal mixology and standard pub food remains the primary operational objective.

A big shoutout to Malt Montréal & a lot of gratitude & love for Olivier & Pablo who offered me a place to sit quietly & catch my breath after I entered the bar in a state of shock after a man tried to assault me in a backstreet nearby. Olivier called a taxi for me & escorted me outside to make sure I would go home safely. I don't drink alcohol, but the place is nice & that's definitely the kind of business that deserves to be known, & the kind of people you want to be around. 🩷🩵💜

A great place for classic cocktails, beer, & wine. Bartenders were super nice. They have hot dogs & chips but you can bring in food if you want!

Absolutely the best bar in Montreal, the staff here is simply the best & the entire feel of the place is so comforting & so cool. My wife & I came here a few years ago before it was named MALT & we are so very happy it is even better than it was before. The drinks are superb, the bartenders are so accommodating & helpful, & the vibes are spectacular. We will keep coming back year after year.

Great spot with a really fun & relaxed atmosphere. MALT is the kind of place that's perfect whether you're going out with friends or just looking for a casual drink. The vibe is lively without being overwhelming, & it strikes a nice balance between a bar & a chill hangout spot. The drink selection is solid, with a good variety of beers & options to choose from, & everything is reasonably priced for the area. Service is friendly & efficient, even when it gets busy, which makes the experience even better. It's also a great place to spend a longer evening without feeling rushed. Overall, a reliable go-to spot with good energy, fair prices, & a welcoming crowd.

On est tellement déçu de ce que vous avez fait à la Distillerie. Il y a déjà de nombreux bars pour boire de la bière & écouter le hockey sur St-Denis, on ne sait pas trop ce que vous apportez de plus.

Le nouveau décor est super, mais on ne voit pas de raison d'y retourner.
