I stumbled upon this speakeasy on my birthday, it was an unexpected Thursday, my friends & I decided to celebrate by going out for a drink & we had an incredible time! Although the crowd was a little quiet when we first got there, it quickly started to get busy toward 10pm onwards. The bartenders were super sweet & welcoming, decor was cool & eclectic, the music was perfect for the crowd & environment. They're right next door to the restaurant Oregon Bar à vin & have an interesting way of entering the speakeasy. We ordered a tartare & some small bites & they were good. Small menu of cocktails but has variety & their Jell-O shots made us feel very nostalgic of the 90's. I'll definitely be back!
Très bel endroit & très beau bar, mais côté cocktails on repassera.
Quand j'ai proposé de me composer un cocktail avec plusieurs saveurs que j'ai énuméré on me propose tout le contraire avec un des 7 choix qu'il y a au menu ou un DAÏQUIRI je me serais cru dans un resort à varadero. À 18$ le verre je crois qu'on peu faire mieux & pourtant s'était pas les choix de boissons & de jus qui manquaient.
La Florida really took me by surprise. From the outside, the building feels a little unassuming, almost making you wonder if you're in the right place but the moment you step inside, it's a whole different vibe. The décor is elegant & classy, with perfectly dimmed lighting, great music, & a warm, inviting atmosphere.
The staff last night were fantastic, charming, & clearly passionate about what they do. Our bartender treated us to some of his special creations, & honestly, I'd go back just for those cocktails alone. Every drink was crafted with care & packed with flavor.
If you're looking for a chic, laidback spot with great cocktails, this place is worth the visit
Beau petit bar speakeasy à Laval. Malheureusement notre expérience a commencé par des gens qui nous ont dépassé dans la file d'attente & les employés n'ont pas réussi à les faire refaire la file d'attente. Les cocktails étaient bons, seul désagrément fut l'odeur des verres qui ne sentait pas bon. Nous avons eu un petit creux , les bâtonnets de fromage étaient très bons. Le décor est très beau.
Underwhelming bar food. Frozen undercooked fries that the waiter said it's a go to. Half my fries were cold & the other half hot. Very basic cheese sticks & tasteless marinara sauce. Burger was great. Service was just okay & I know it's a bar but when the bartenders are drinking more then the clients...I think you have a problem. Atmosphere was very good & I'd go back just for a drink
Good drinks. Ambiance & great music is the reason you want to go to this place. Great variety of wines. Bartenders know what they are doing, good speakeasy all around.
