Good service, the staff was friendly & professional. Prices were ok for the beers, & particularly interesting on event nights.

Tiny terrasse, close to Côte-des-neiges street, so very noisy (3-4 fire trucks, 2-3 ambulances, & big trucks). A lot of people smoking cigarettes right besides also, less than 1m away.

No food is served, but you can bring your own to eat there.
