Located in the middle of the centre of the heart of downtown, downstairs we have punching bag strength tester, pool table and darts, classic arcade game, VLTs, and upstairs a 300 capacity live music venue. We love Montreal and provide relaxed, quality experience... and at night we are a spaceship come meet aliens
Reviews describe Piranha Bar as a downtown dive with an electric, eclectic vibe where cheap drinks, a welcoming crowd and a heavy metal, punk and goth sensibility draw locals and visitors alike. Staff are repeatedly praised for friendly, attentive service, the shows are well staged with solid sound for the venue size, and the place is noted for its lively atmosphere, a big terrace and even slot machines. Safety is a concern for some, with warnings to go in groups for young women and calls for better security. No kitchen currently serving food, but outside food is allowed, and the venue is known for its real piranha tank feature that adds to the unique vibe. Overall the place is seen as a standout metal-focused hub in the city, beloved by a mixed crowd and appreciated for its character, price point, and consistent live entertainment.
C'est le meilleur bar en ville. La première fois que je suis allée à un bar à Montréal c'était ici & depuis, c'est la seule place que je vais. Les barmaids sont tellement fine & le boss encore plus !!! 🩷

genuinely the worst bar in montreal. avoid. the bouncers are the worst, they police the bathrooms & forcibly removed a transgender woman out of a washroom stall because she didn't look'woman' enough. ive also seen them confiscate belongings during bag checks. not to mention their complicity in hosting problematic right wing bands that other venues won't take. avoid avoid avoid if youre a real punk.
The barmaid Alex is kinda annoying but really adorable at the same time, it's a little confusing.
She does her job really well & definitely knows how to keep the vibe going, definitely will come back
très bon bar à ambiance, à la cooooool détendue. Maria est une excellente barmaid très professionnelle, mention spéciale pour elle ☺?
je recommande à 1000%
Mon repère favori... ♥?
