We went here on a Sunday night when the bar was basically empty. Getting there was tough with all the construction. The espresso martinis were watered down. At one point, the whole bar came together to enjoy a song (Iris), & the small bar started to create a beautiful vibe. Everyone was singing. Then the bartenders stopped the song halfway through, killing the vibe. Maybe we would have stayed if the vibes were good, but this bar does not know how to create or maintain one. We left as soon as this happened.

Philemon Bar in Old Port, Montreal, offers a chic & vibrant atmosphere, perfect for a lively night out. The bar's modern, industrial design combined with its cozy ambiance makes it a great spot to unwind or catch up with friends. The music selection is excellent, often featuring live DJs, which enhances the overall experience. The drinks menu is well-curated with a variety of cocktails, beers, & wines. The bartenders are skilled & friendly, always ready to recommend something new if you're undecided. The crowd is generally upbeat, contributing to a fun & energetic vibe throughout the night. However, the bar can get quite crowded, especially on weekends, which might make it challenging to find a spot to sit. The prices are also on the higher side, but the quality of drinks & the ambiance justifies it. Overall, Philemon Bar is a fantastic choice for those looking to enjoy a lively evening in Old Port, offering great drinks, music, & atmosphere. It's definitely worth a visit, though be prepared for a bustling crowd & slightly steeper prices.

We had a great time sitting at the bar, listening to great music (90s, 2000s hip hop) & people watching.

Nice little spot situated in the old port. On the downside, it is VERY VERY small & it gets unbearably hot, drinks are cheap enough & staff are lovely.

Love this bar!! The staff is very friendly & they play 2000s music, the vibe is 10/10. The drinks are a bit pricey but that's the case everywhere. Will definitely come back

Only stopped in for a drink, but the staff was so nice & the music was not super obnoxious. Could be a little cleaner, but I think it's a bit of a dive bar anyway :)

We had a corporate retreat in Montreal & ended up at Philemon for one of our nightly parties. It was awesome! Welcoming intimate space, great music & dj, friendly bartenders. Go often & have a great time! ✨
