With its green marble formica walls and terrazo floors, Le Cheval Blanc is your vintage working class neighbourhood old time tavern. Located in what used to be called the Faubourg à la Mélasse (the Molasses District), it became the first licensed brew pub in Montréal, back in 1986. People come for the excellence of its beers, its cozy atmosphere, cool staff, great music and a bit of intentional simplicity!

Review Summary

Le Cheval Blanc feels like a relaxed, unpretentious neighbourhood classic with a genuine Montreal atmosphere, where a strong in house beer selection sits beside a reasonably priced menu and solid food. The decor blends art deco charm with a sense of history that adds character and even a retro futuristic vibe reminiscent of a Blade Runner style setting. The street patio in spring through fall is excellent, lively without being overwhelming, and the overall vibe is relaxed, creative, and local, attracting a mix of regulars and visitors. It is a place that people keep coming back to for casual evenings, patio drinks, and easygoing surroundings. Staff are noted as friendly and the service approachable, contributing to a no frills feel that still delivers good beer and simple, satisfying food. A few comments mention more pint size options and a clearer online menu, but the general sentiment is that Le Cheval Blanc is a welcoming, consistently enjoyable spot worth revisiting.

Bonne atmosphère & choix de bières artisanales de qualité intéressant. Peut-être le niveau sonore de la musique rend-il difficiles les échanges. Heureusement il y a toujours la terrasse pour faire tomber la pression acoustique.
