About

Sample Listening Bar operates as a dedicated space centered on the intersection of high-fidelity audio and balanced drink pairings. The menu presents a selection of sharp, citrus-forward cocktails alongside savory, bite-sized snacks designed for easy consumption. Polished wooden surfaces and carefully positioned speakers define the room, creating an environment where the playback of analog records shapes the atmosphere. Low lighting enhances the textures of the space, allowing the focus to remain strictly on the sonic clarity and the nuanced flavors within each glass. The environment functions as a sanctuary for focused listening sessions complemented by a thoughtful, minimalist approach to bar offerings.

We had a wonderful time at Sample! It was our first stop upon landing in Montreal, & I'm sure we will swing by again before we leave. Our bartenders were fabulous, & gave us an extensive list of bars & restaurants to check out on our trip. Such an amazingly kind gesture, especially since they were very busy with other customers at the same time. Great vibes, great drinks, great music. Highly recommend!

Amazing new gem in mtl. The entire staff was filled with kindness, especially our waitress Kuini. She was fantastic & recommended some of the most unique & delicious cocktails we've ever had. The vibe was so cozy & welcoming & the music choice was immaculate!

Really enjoyed our visit to Sample. Not only is the vibe & sound system (immersive yet not too loud) immaculate, but the drinks were some of the most interesting & unique I've ever had.

Our waitress was especially helpful & friendly as well which made the experience even better. Easily the best customer service we received all week.

Highly recommend checking out Sample for a drink or two while in Montreal.
