Le Date Karaoke offre une ambiance festive et conviviale avec une grande énergie karaoké, une terrasse agréable et une foule enthousiaste; le choix de chansons est large et l ambiance est généralement guidée par une équipe professionnelle et attentive, avec des interventions d animateurs qui savent mettre l ambiance et faire chanter tout le monde; beaucoup apprécient les services et les boissons, et considèrent que le lieu mérite le titre de meilleur karaoké en ville; toutefois des critiques notent une hausse des prix et des politiques de réservation qui limitent l accès, en particulier en soirée, et des files d attente parfois longues; la gestion des listes et le déroulement des sessions dépendent parfois du DJ, avec des allégations de favoritisme ou de communication insuffisante envers certains clients; des soucis techniques comme des micros mal branchés ou un volume incohérent ont aussi été signalés; malgré ces points, l endroit demeure très fréquenté et est souvent recommandé, surtout pour les groupes qui veulent passer une bonne soirée, tout en restant conscient que certaines soirées peuvent varier selon le personnel et les conditions de service.
AMAZING karaoke bar in Montreals fabulous LGBTQ neighborhood. This bar is so lively, came here on a Saturday night, it was packed by around midnight. Drinks were good, service was good. The patrons singing were great; such a fun energy in this place! Highly suggest coming here!
Awesome place to dance & drink with your friends on a Friday or Saturday night, some other nights of the week is also pretty good. It can take a while for you to sing though on a busy night

BEWARE: DJ will remove your name from the queue without notice & award your slots to himself or his friends/favourite patrons.
In my case he even bragged to me at the end of the night about how great it had been for him without knowing I was one of those paying customers whose turn he denied so he could indulge himself.
Too bad because the absolute darling of a doorman (Stephen) & the bar staff were beyond expectations & really were friendly, efficient & patient, but this guy just ruined our night.
I'm a longtime singer & karaoke enjoyer, I came at about half past midnight with a large group of people from work even though I didn't really have money to spare & really should've gone home because I haven't been able to sing publicly in a long time & was really made to look forward to it.
So I entered my name into the queue upon arriving, paid twice the normal amount for a beer thinking I'd drink it & go after I'd had my turn. After almost an hour though I began to notice some of my colleagues, including ones who arrived after me, had already gotten two, three turns & the DJ had awarded himself a similar amount, while myself & other friends who had entered their names a long time ago ended up staying until last call & were never called.
So basically I spent over fifty dollars I didn't have & wasted what should have been a productive night on the false promise that I would get a service, & instead ended up paying for some unknown guy to pick a setlist he likes & perform in front of a captive audience.
I've been coming to Le Date for about a year & always loved the atmosphere, respectful crowd, & great performances. It's been my favorite karaoke spot until my last visit, which left me really disappointed & hurt.
That night, the staff member, the person managing the song list: Jessika was dismissive & unprofessional toward me. When I politely asked about my turn to sing (3h after logging it in the system), she waved me off & made a gesture telling me to stay away from the stage, something I've never experienced there before with any of the other DJs (whom I love). On a previous visit, I missed my song because I went to the bathroom, & when I asked if I could still sing, she told me I had lost my chance with no flexibility.
Throughout the night, I noticed Jessika treated other people, those who look more like her, with warmth & friendliness. She spoke kindly to them, joked around, & gave them clear answers about their songs. But with me, she ignored me, refused to communicate, & made me feel excluded. Once it was finally my turn to pass, at 2:50am (knowing that I put my song around 11pm) She even called one of my song choices'horrible' & pressured me to pick another, which was humiliating in a place that's supposed to be fun & welcoming.
Experiencing this microaggression toward me, but also other POCs as well while being completely sober & just trying to enjoy a night of singing, was so very painful & frustrating. The crowd was wonderful as always, but Jessika's treatment completely changed the vibe & left me feeling unsafe & unwelcome.
Le Date is a beautiful spot with great people, & I really hope management addresses this behavior. Everyone deserves to be treated fairly & respectfully in a place meant for enjoyment.
Such a fun way to spend a night out! I went on a Tuesday night with 2 friends around 10pm & it was already busy with people singing. The bar had a great atmosphere & felt safe. I recommend sitting by the karaoke stage (thought it is louder) so that you can watch others & sing along. The service was decent & the drinks were good, typical pricing for Montreal. For weekends, it is necessary to make a reservation. There is no fee for participating in the karaoke which is great so you can go as often as you like depending on how busy the bar is. For anyone out of town, this place is great time that must be on the itinerary.

If you've never gone to a karaoke bar, here's the following information to know: No reservations are needed unless you're a big group. The only "fee" to partake in the karaoke is to buy a drink. You can sing as much as you want, you just have to look at the song catalogue they have online. Submit your song & then they'll call you when it's your turn. All you have left is to sing your heart out!
Loved the place. It's small, but everyone there is very chill. I'll have to come again. The staff is super nice & very welcoming 🙏 The staff there is also super talented! They are all amazing singers! You won't be disappointed! If your server is Fred, you'll be treated like a king. I really recommend this place.
