Le 4e Mur functions as a clandestine speakeasy-inspired bar characterized by its commitment to theatrical mixology and immersive atmosphere. Guests navigate through a disguised entrance to access a sophisticated space defined by vintage aesthetics and dimly lit, velvet-draped corners. The menu focuses exclusively on complex, original cocktail creations that utilize artisanal spirits, house-made infusions, and precise technique. Patrons select from a curated list of inventive libations designed to challenge traditional perceptions of classic mixology. The environment prioritizes an intimate experience where the meticulous preparation of each drink serves as the central focal point. Silence and discretion remain core components of the identity, ensuring the focus stays entirely on the sensory experience provided by the liquid craft. This establishment operates with a singular dedication to maintaining the intrigue of its hidden, prohibition-era conceptual foundation.
Le 4e Mur is widely celebrated as an exceptional and exclusive speakeasy in Montreal, known for its intimate, sophisticated atmosphere and creative, high-quality cocktails. Many visitors praise the immersive experience, which frequently includes engaging murder mystery puzzles and surprise burlesque or theatrical performances that elevate the evening. While the service is often described as friendly and attentive, some guests have noted occasional inconsistencies regarding wait times or communication. Although the food portions are sometimes viewed as small, the overall consensus highlights a unique, memorable destination that successfully blends entertainment, mixology, and a sense of mystery.
3 of us came here to play the mystery & also enjoy some drinks. Both their alcoholic & non-alcoholic options were amazing. To add to the experience, the mystery was so much fun & we had such an interactive time trying to solve it. When we succeeded the staff also gave us a round of "small cocktail like shots". A very beautiful & well worth it speakeasy!
The best way to experience this bar is (1) With 2-4 friends you can solve the mystery with; (2) By coming on a Wednesday or Sunday around 8pm, before the burlesque show; (3) Not on an empty stomach. The cocktails are very good, but the vibes & the service are even better. Treasure them. Doing all the cocktails & food, with 2 people only, the bill will be in the triple digits.

Eh. Neat idea but not executed in the best way. Would have been better if it was one or the other-Speakeasy OR Murder Mystery. Our friend saw it on TikTok & we saw several people there that seemed to only be there for the TikTok. You HAVE to order 6 drinks (& pay per drink), from specific menus in order to get the clues to solve the murder. You can not solve it with only some of the clues. Some drinks were good, some not. Annoying that you can't just order what you like. Door guy was really nasty when we asked if it was possible that friends that were coming in a bit could be seated with us (they couldn't)-how would we know what the seating situation is like inside if we've never been there & they're "secretive" about it? We got the focaccia. It was a very small serving & was just okay
The concept of this bar is absolutely amazing. Very entertaining, but its thought of. Every drink comes with a clue for the murder mystery you must solve. So thats 6 drinks, $$$. But the service is excellent, although i would have liked for them to explain the concept to me when i got there. Drinks are honestly meh, but thats not what your paying for.
We loved the entry to the speakeasy, it was fun! We did opt to solve the murder mystery which was the perfect amount of challenge. It was like an escape room met a cool bar atmosphere. We were not crazy about the drinks that were apart of the mystery challenge & did want a more simple & widely liked option to chose from. Overall our service was great, the waitress was kind & offered helpful hints to solve the mystery when we needed it. Very cool experience, was fun with a couple but might be better in a larger group where each person could get on drink as you need 6 in total to solve the mystery. When you solve it you do get a prize at the end which was a nice touch!
Whenever someone asks me where to go while in Montreal Le 4ᶱ Mur is one of my top recommendations. Burlesque on Wednesdays toppled with a mystery game you can solve any day of the week. A lot of people go here for the "speakesy" hidden behind a wall schtik but I honestly believe this place is much more than that. A true gem.
Visiting from Toronto & this was an amazing experience! We were even able to solve the mystery on our first try/visit!
Great ambiance & staff, would definitely come back if they change the game/murder (:
The music was quieter than I expected which I enjoyed because I was able to speak to my group a bit more. The ambiance & the service was really good, drinks holding a lot of unique notes that I enjoyed, but the food left a little bit to be desired. The murder mystery to solve was done very well.
We had an absolutely lovely evening at Le 4e Mur. When we first arrived to the given address, we were extremely confused because we couldn't find the place, but once we figured out how to enter (no spoilers here :)), we were hooked. From the ambiance, the 1920s music, the dimmed lighting, the enchanting menu, everything was perfect. We decided to solve the mystery & all the drinks come with interactive clues, it's so fun. Great place to bring someone on a first date since the mystery already gives you a topic of conversation. My friends & I had a blast & all 3 of us agreed that this is our new favourite bar (I have had another favourite bar for YEARS to give you an idea). Cannot recommend this place enough, 126473/10!!!
