All in all Milky Way Cocktail Bar is regarded as a must visit for cocktail lovers, offering top tier drinks, a stylish playful setting, and a memorable night out.
We stopped in for drinks before dinner & what a fantastic experience! The staff was friendly & the bartender was genuinely interested in making recommendations based on what we like to drink. Our bartender was Louis & he made the whole experience so enjoyable.
I gave him some drinks I like & he suggested the Side Salad SVP & it was so delicious! The next round, I told him I liked Brown Derbys so he said he'll make me one with a few of his own tweaks. It was the best Brown Derby I've ever had!
The vibe is fun, relaxed, & doesn't seem to take itself too seriously.
Definitely put this place on your must go list in Montreal!

What a lovely ambiance provided to you at Milky Way, from the comfortable booth-like seating, to the friendly & professional service, you're assured to enjoy your night here. The drink list is ample & the menu has a cool vibe to it, plenty to choose from & great help from the servers there. Bonus points for the late night pizza deal, nice thin crust pizza to end the night was a great addition. The spicy margarita was delicious & my friends loved their cocktails as well. Music is nice & not too loud.
Milky Way is an absolute visual treat. Beyond the incredible atmosphere, the drinks are reasonably priced & the service is surprisingly quick given the vibe. I ordered the Pisco Sour & it was fantastic, highly recommended.
However, the real highlight is the food. The $5 pizzas after 11 PM make the trip completely worth it. Do yourself a favor & order the Calabrese Hot Honey Pizza; it won't disappoint. I'd argue it's one of the best pizzas in Montreal. This place is definitely a hidden gem!
The atmosphere here is absolutely enchanting! I recently visited with a friend, & let me tell you, the cocktails are nothing short of exotic & unique. The vibes are incredibly high-energy, & I absolutely adore this place! My friend mentioned it's the perfect spot for someone as artsy as I am, & I couldn't agree more. The artistic flair is everywhere, making it a fantastic venue for a casual get-together with friends or even a special celebration. I can't recommend this place enough! The drinks are phenomenal, & the ambiance is simply stunning. You've got to experience it for yourself!

A unique & outstanding cocktail bar! Excellent craftsmen behind the bar! Very welcoming attentive staff! Relaxed vibe! They use some obscure & interesting rums!
Really good atmosphere & amazing drinks. Only issue is that the DJ was so so bad & the music was deeply loud, kinda ruined the vibe tbh. Like I'm having a fancy drink, why are they playing Africa by shakira & wiggle wiggle??
Loved this bar! The 5$ pizza is actually so delicious & so are the drinks ! The staff is really friendly & the atmosphere is chill . Good music . Love the decor & vibe , nice little getaway from your usual bar scene . Would go again for sure

You have to come here. You need to try this place. It is worth the line to get in. Once inside you are met by this beautiful decor of neon, a dj who spins regaeton & other songs that what to make you get up & dance. We'll we were dancing in our seats & the cocktails, crafty & delicious.. I started with one drink & ended up with 4 cocktails.
Definitely coming back this place is a vibe.
Otherwise, if you're hungry, you can order from Fugazzi pizza below . If you don't drink ,they also make nice mockails.
I wish i could rate this place higher than five stars! Absolutely out of this world on all levels (pun intended) To access you go through this side door & up a flight of stairs with neon decor & black lights. Once inside it is a tropical jungle meets astrology lounge. The place is relatively small & tables are quite close together but it does have an intimate vibe. Cocktails were very tasty & they even have the option of getting the bartender to whip up a cocktail according to your preferred flavours & spirit. They no longer have the swan boats for their peach cocktail which is a bit disappointing so just a heads up if you were looking forward to it. Food was delicious, we got the inglewood pizza which is your classic margarita & the crust was nice & thin & well balanced.
