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.

We didn't have food, but I'll give it 5 stars based on the rest of our experience. We are in town for a short time & wanted to stop for a drink. Stumbled upon MALT & couldn't be happier.

Lilly gave us fantastic service & amazingly crafted cocktails. She was attentive, friendly & knowledgeable. The vibe is great, & if you're looking for an intimate cocktail bar- this place is for you.

As I said, we didn't get food (it was late), but the first thing I noticed on the menu was 8 hotdogs for $35. This place knows how to steal my heart. 10/10 would recommend.

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.
