Review Summary

Le Bar Darling is widely celebrated for its eclectic, vintage, and art-deco inspired atmosphere, making it a visually stunning destination that resonates with locals and tourists alike. Many visitors praise the establishment as an ideal spot for brunch, romantic dates, or casual evenings, often highlighting the creative cocktails, fresh oysters, and flavorful small plates. While the majority of guests report friendly and attentive service, experiences can vary during peak hours when the venue becomes crowded and noisy. Although most diners find the food quality exceptional, opinions on portion sizes and menu pricing are mixed, with some noting that certain dishes lack expected sides or that specific kitchen policies regarding modifications can feel restrictive. Overall, it remains a highly recommended neighborhood staple for those seeking a unique, lively, and aesthetically memorable experience in Montreal.

Première expérience au Darling sur recommandation d'une amie & je n'ai vraiment pas été déçue! Le tartare de saumon est juste excellent, les frites superbes & le gin à la pêche délicieux, je recommande vraiment!!

Went with friends for brunch & I was a bit disappointed unfortunately. I got the smoked salmon eggs Benedict; both the hollandaise sauce & the mayo were weirdly sour. The potatoes were somewhat bland. The eggs were cooked well however & the salmon was also good. Great ambience & service.

Nourriture pour les incultes culinaires ( sandwich italien servi avec un pain hamburger brioché surdimensionné & prosciutto) , service incompétent ( service d'un café 30 minutes en retard , caféiné alors que j'avais demandé déca). On paie juste pour le décor.

What used to be a nice looking bar has been remodelled into some kind of psychedelic gypsy village

Cozy, aesthetic bar which is now decorated for the holidays. We had to wait for about 30 mins outside on a friday night. But once we were, inside our server was quick with our food & drinks.
