Review Summary

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.

Service sympa & toujours sans discrimination. 👌🏽🖤 J'y ai oublié mon sac la veille. Je suis revenue & non seulement je l'ai retrouvé, mais absolument rien n'y manquait. Bons prix, bonne musique & bon service.

I sometimes go to this venue to see local music acts, my friends & their bands often play here. Never ate the food here (didn't even know they had food here), but the drinks aren't too expensive. Will definitely come back here for more shows.

There's no food option. It's a drinks only bar.

We liked the bar, the staff was very friendly. We visited this bar because the reviews said it was a metal bar, however, there was unfortunately only very little heavy metal music played the night we were there.
