An absinthe bar hidden away in Old Montreal

Immerse yourself in the warm, intimate ambience of Sarah B., a cocktail bar hidden away in the heart of Old Montreal, where history and flavor meet. Named in honor of the illustrious actress Sarah Bernhardt, who walked these very walls, this discreet venue, located within the InterContinental Montreal, invites you to savor refined cocktails in a unique atmosphere.

The setting, with its velvet alcoves and subdued lighting, pays tribute to the timeless elegance of the actress and the audacity of her era. Let yourself be seduced by a menu of fine dishes, such as our fresh oysters, tuna tartare, gourmet burgers and Caesar salads, designed to perfect your evening.

Review Summary

Reviews describe Sarah B. Bar d'Absinthe as a cool, intimate spot with a great bar, solid food, friendly service and pleasant decor with a light jazz backdrop. Cocktails such as The Côte d'Azur, Sarah la Divine and Phocéen are praised, while the gin Stratton is not recommended for an unbalanced profile. An issue in the men's washroom with lotion but no soap was quickly addressed after being signaled, a rare misstep at a high end venue. The atmosphere is classy with outstanding drinks and attentive, knowledgeable staff; absinthe is introduced in a clear and enjoyable way, the burger is described as outstanding, and the place is regarded as a hidden gem worth recommending.

A hidden gem inside the InterContinental!
Sarah B. is a super cozy, intimate absinthe bar with a fantastic atmosphere. The drinks are not only delicious but also beautifully presented, & their selection of absinthe is truly impressive. If you get hungry, you can conveniently order food right from the hotel's restaurant.
I highly recommend this warm & welcoming spot! Pro tip: if you are with a small group, definitely try to snag one of their two small private alcoves (the'provocative' salons). A perfect night out!
