About

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 is described as a relaxed, unpretentious neighbourhood classic with great house beers, solid food, and an authentically Montréal atmosphere; the street patio from spring through fall is excellent and lively without being overwhelming, the décor has a strong original art deco vibe that adds character, and the in house beer selection is a standout with reliable staples alongside seasonal brews. The space feels welcoming to regulars and first-time visitors alike, offering a comfortable, homey ambiance and a genuine local feel. The menu may be small, but prices are reasonable and the quality is consistently good, making it a good fit for casual evenings, patio drinks, or a relaxed stroll through the area. Live music and events add a fun touch, and overall Le Cheval Blanc is seen as a place to return to for its atmosphere, consistency, and character.

Had an amazing time visiting. This was a random stop visiting from Ottawa as our hotel was around the corner. My partner were impressed at how busy it was here. It says a lot about the place. It has an older crowd, but the most lively bar we stepped in. Not to mention great beer. Recommend for a nice night out with friends on a Saturday night.

Meilleure place en ville, & ce, uniquement grâce au staff & aux usagers. Un bijou à préserver, loiiiiiin des bannières & des investisseurs.

What an awesome brewery & neighborhood pub! A great, low-key place to relax & enjoy great beer. I got the Velourrrrs, which is easily one of the best IPAs I tried during my visit to Montréal & ranks among the best IPAs I've ever tried (top 7% out of 233 different IPAs). Merci à vous!

This is a great microbrewery with a wonderful vibe. It is not a restaurant but a place to drink & enjoy conversation which is what you want in a microbrewery. & the hazy IPA was outstanding. Finally, the serving staff were a joy.

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.
