Messorem is widely celebrated for its massive beer list and craft focus, with reviewers calling it a top spot for IPAs, lagers, stouts, and sours and noting that the beer quality lives up to the hype even when lines can form during peak times, with some praise for inventive drinks like beer smoothies. The food scene gets praise too, with standout smash burgers and poutines mentioned alongside other tasty offerings, though some reviews say the kitchen could push further, and a few note the food is decent rather than extraordinary. The atmosphere comes through as a major draw: a cool industrial space with a large outdoor terrace, dog and bike friendly, frequent music that sets a lively vibe, and a welcoming staff that is described as friendly, efficient, and helpful, even when crowded. Family and friends enjoy the social, casual feel, with plenty of merch to browse and a strong sense of community around the place. While prices can be on the higher side, the overall experience is described as worth it for beer lovers visiting Montreal, and the option to enjoy the heated patio in colder months or the terrace in summer makes it a go-to during both seasons.
Summer time is better since the gigantic terrasse is open. But they still have an enclosed area which is heated & offers more sitting space.
Food is bar style, so don't expect a grandiose culinary experience, but it is well adapted. I'd see to have the same sauce options for chicken popcorn than the wings, though.
Extremely varied IPA style beers & some other good options if IPA is not your forté, like me.
They put the hockey games on a big screen when the Canadiens play.
Excellent beer, especially their sours! Their beer slushes during the summer are also highly recommended. Both the fish & chips & popcorn chicken were also awesome.

Amazing micro-brewery with a vast selection of home brewed beers. They also have some very nicely designed merch. Large indoor space, but the outdoor patio really is what sets Messorem apart. At least a dozen oicnic tables available all year long. They are located at approx 50meters from the nicest bike path in town (Canal Lachine), which makes them a must-stop during a summer bike trip. The ambiance is super friendly, & they accept kids. No reason not to go!
Only downside is they dont have table service.
Stopped by Messorem for a quick pint with my friend & was pleasantly surprised by the very open & comfortable room, the long & extensive beer list, the friendly service & great suggestions offered to us right away, & of course the cool variety of merch available. The music set a great vibe, only played bangers. Didn't get to try the food but it looked very good. Would definitely recommend the #15 stout & will be back to enjoy another beer in the heated outdoor area or in the summer for the terrasse.
Really liked it! Great place with amazing ambiance, very friendly staff & very good selection of drinks! Service was fast even when the place was very crowded! Very nice in the summer! I highly recommend! Will be going back with my friends & my coworkers.
Fun place with plenty of beer options right near the canal! Also cool art/old metal machines out front at the corner & plenty of patio space in the summer!

There is a lot of varaity for beers. My fravorite is'le petit jus de mort' which is basically a sour beer smoothie.If you are into trying creative beers, it is the place for you.
The atomsphere js very cheerful. There is a lot of sitting inside & outside but usually it is hard ti find a free apot during summer weekends outside.
Best brewery/terrace in the city. Great vibe, excellent beers, & delicious food. Can't recommend it enough, especially in the summer. Added bonus of being dog friendly!
Favourite brewery in the summer! Fresh beer, tons of options. Food is delicious especially the chicken sandwich (ask for hot sauce on the side). Great atmosphere & family & pet friendly.
I've been to Messorem multiple times, & each visit has been a great experience. The atmosphere is lively & welcoming, making it a perfect spot whether you're hanging out with friends or on a date.
During the summer, their outdoor space is absolutely beautiful & adds to the overall vibe. Even indoors (during colder months), the setting remains enjoyable. The staff are fantastic-friendly, efficient, & always bring positive energy when taking orders & serving.
As for the drinks, the beer selection is solid, & the pricing is fair. The food is decent, though I think there's room for improvement.
Overall, Messorem is a great place to relax & enjoy good beer in a fun environment.
One of my favorite bars in Montreal. The atmosphere is great & their outdoor area in the summer is fantastic. They have a great selection of beers & their smoothie beers are quite tasty. Definitely recommend.
J'adore ici. It was such a cool vibe, beautiful design with live music. There is a dozen choice for your beer. We got sour beer( number 18 & 19) 18 is with Matcha & 19 with fruits. I loved the beer. Also the price was sooo reasonable. Best choice to pass a summer evening😍
Great atmosphere & the perfect summer terrace close to the Lachine canal. It offers a smaller, more refined version of terrace Saint Ambroise. The beer is the clear winner & the food is also quite tasty. Highly recommend coming with friends, or on a Tuesday summer evening to go have a quiet pint & read a book.
Messorem hits the spot! Awesome beer selection, & the vibe is top-notch. Staff are so welcoming! The petit jus de mort is a summer staple-can't wait for sunny days to sip it by the canal. Cheers to good times ahead! 🍻☀️
