Our server, Zoe, was an absolute delight, she was very personable & kind. The drinks were top notch. The seating was as comfortable as can be. The jazz band that was playing sounded phenomenal.

The next time you know you want to go to a candle lit lounge in the Old Port of Montreal; do yourself a favour & make a reservation to go to Lovebird.

Wonderful drinks. Beautiful music, but not so loud you can't talk. Make a reservation as it's a amall intimate venue ( on a week night you may be able to make reservation on your phone for 15 minutes from'now').

Semi-tucked in an alleyway is Lovebird, a very charming & lively cocktail bar with live music. $20 entry fee. I recommend making a reservation in advance. I noticed the service was pretty slow, we were only seen once to order & then again when it was time to close the bill.

WOW. If you're looking for a place that feels like you've discovered one of the city's best kept secrets, LOVEBIRD is it.

From the moment you walk in, you're transported into a cozy speakeasy with an incredible atmosphere, amazing live jazz, & the kind of ambiance that makes you want to stay all night. My apologies to the talented musicians whose names I didn't catch, but you made our evening unforgettable. Every song was perfection.

The signature cocktails were unlike anything we've had before. Each one came with its own story, making every drink feel like part of the experience. Creative, beautiful, & absolutely delicious.

& the food… wow! The truffle grilled cheese was rich & decadent, the lobster rolls were packed with flavor, & the fries were honestly some of the best we've ever had.

A very special thank you to Zoée, who took such great care of us. Every recommendation was spot on & made our evening even more memorable. Thank you as well to the incredibly talented bartenders for crafting such exceptional cocktails & to the warm, welcoming hosts who made us feel at home from the second we arrived.

LOVEBIRD isn't just a place to grab a drink. It's an experience. Whether it's date night, a celebration, or simply an evening out with friends, this is one of those rare places you'll be telling everyone about long after you leave.

We can't wait to return!
