This is one of my favourite places to go when I want to wind down from my work & also see a comedy show! It's really close, near the Guy-Concordia station in a cozy spot on Rue Mackay. All of the bartenders are great & they all know you by name, which makes it really personal They also have a really great comedy night on Tuesdays that features a variety of local Montreal comedians & occasional famous person.

What I love is that they take risks with experimenting with different types of cocktails each week, often offering them as specials. They have this new cocktail called'noire & epice' which is a type of pumpkin spice espresso martini that I HIGHLY recommend.

I met up with a friend at NsurMackay for a couple of beers, & it was my first time visiting, so I had no expectations going in. We arrived close to suppertime, & the place was quiet, which made for a calm & relaxed atmosphere. The space itself is quite inviting - the decor is a tasteful mix of modern & classic touches, with warm lighting & comfortable seating that makes it easy to settle in & enjoy a conversation.

The bartender was friendly, welcoming, & attentive without being intrusive, which added to the relaxed vibe. The beers were cold & refreshing, exactly what I was hoping for after a long day. It's the kind of place that feels low-pressure, where you can unwind, catch up with friends, & enjoy a few drinks without feeling rushed.

Overall, NsurMackay made a very good first impression. The combination of the inviting decor, attentive service, & quality drinks makes it a spot I'd happily return to. It's ideal for casual meetups or just a quiet evening out to enjoy a couple of cold beers & good company.

Feels like a neighborhood bar where everybody comes together to meet for a drink... & it was a Sunday. I felt like i intruded & the bartender was sassy as hell. The beer & tequilas shots was good though.
