Monsieur Ricard gets high marks for a warm, convivial ambiance and a welcoming atmosphere, with attentive staff and an owner who is involved and passionate, creating a standout vibe in Montreal. The space shines on sports nights with many screens, a fired up crowd, efficient servers, and plenty of Ricard, and it is praised as a top spot for watching finals with solid beers. Some reviews note a caution about crowds during games and advise checking what is on before visiting. Others describe a less positive experience for English speakers, citing a not great vibe, digital darts and a weak pool table, and issues with change that lead some patrons to say they would not return. Overall, the reviews present Monsieur Ricard as a strong sports bar with hospitality that many value, balanced by caveats related to language comfort and certain amenities.
Fan de l'Olympique de Marseille & en vacances sur Montréal. J'ai passé un super moment devant l'olympico ( victoire de l'OM au passage) avec des fans venant de France & du Canada. Serveuse agréable & souriante. Je recommande !
Excellent bar pour se retrouver entre amis pour une après-midi foot. Le nom porte bien ses racines. Bar olympien où on y retrouve les ambiances les plus chaudes lors des classico.
This place is hands-down the best bar in Montreal. The atmosphere is always welcoming, the drinks are top-notch, & what really sets it apart is the incredible staff. The employees are super friendly, attentive, & make you feel right at home every time. You can tell they genuinely care about creating a great experience. The owner is also fantastic-super involved, down-to-earth, & clearly passionate about what they do. You won't find a better vibe anywhere else in the city. Highly recommend!

Excellent spot pour voire la finale du Top 14. Des écrans partout, un public en feu, des serveuses efficaces & souriantes.
On a vu passer des mètres de Ricard, ça fait plaisir. Bonnes bières pressions.
Ah man this was a disappointment. Probably best to avoid this place if you're English speaking. Did not get a good vibe at all. Digital darts & a useless pool table if the bar doesn't hold loonies... & if they did have change but didn't want us to stay that says it all. Won't be going back.
Super belle place ! L'ambiance est tout simplement parfaite lors des matchs de foot ou de rugby. Les burgers de boeuf sont très bon. Je recommande fortement.
Beau décor avec un super Ricard, en revanche, la serveuse française fait une erreur sur le TPE carte bleue en me supprimant les pourboires, & me prend de haut en me disant « la prochaine fois tu saura qu'on tips ici », le premier serveur était plus agréable, c'est dommage
