Review Summary

Sora 45 is widely celebrated for its breathtaking panoramic views of Montreal, providing an elegant and memorable atmosphere that makes it a popular destination for both coffee enthusiasts and cocktail lovers. While many patrons praise the creative, high-quality drink menu and the friendly, attentive service, others note that the venue can become quite crowded, sometimes making it difficult to find seating due to individuals working on laptops. The culinary offerings, while generally enjoyed for their quality and unique presentation, are frequently described as having small portion sizes and premium pricing. Although some guests encountered minor service lapses or difficulty navigating the building's elevator system, the majority of visitors find the combination of the stunning scenery, curated music playlists, and overall ambiance to be a unique and worthwhile experience.

This is a great place to have a date & enjoy the city views in a calm & respected environment! The music is selected with a care taste. The drinks are really refined, & the bartenders really know how to make their drinks. The atmosphere is impeccable. Everything is to its right place me & my partner we went to this place & we got a French 75 & an Old Cuban that was recommended by the server. It was an absolute delight.

A very chill place with an amazing view. With a surprise menu & cocktails that change often. Ask the barman for any information for drinks or what they could make for you.

Vue exceptionnelle. Cadre & décoration avec belle ambiance mais pas du tout confortable que ce soit en banquette ou chaise haute. L'endroit est minuscule avec hauteur sous plafond plutôt basse. Il se peut que vous ayez à attendre pour une table. Un peu moins de 80$ taxes & pourboires inclus pour un verre de Sancerre + 2 mocktails…je vous laisse juge des tarifs appliqués. Service très moyen : nous avions commandé à manger pour grignoter & le serveur lui-même a suggéré d'en rajouter car nous étions 3. Ironiquement la nourriture n'est jamais arrivée, le serveur ne l'a probablement jamais entré dans le système. il vrai que le staff a l'air de passer plus de temps à rire entre eux que de servir les clients. Prendre note que le menu nourriture du bar est plutôt d'inspiration asiatique/japonaise.

Haven't tried anything from the cafe but the view & whole place is beautiful so definitely a stop to go even just to admire the city from the top! After 4 they turn into a cocktail bar.

This is such a cool cafe, I came here with a friend & the atmosphere is just unmatched. Super nice for a view over all of Montreal. I just wish they had more seating. The coffee was good. I can't wait to come back after 5 & try the bar.

For a Thursday night, Sora 45 is a great bar for drinks after work. I love a good citrusy drink so the Tangerine Tree was a great choice! We were seated at the bar, then walked around to get a glimpse of the entire city. Special thanks to our bartender Zach who had great energy during the evening🍸🌙

The most unique bar in the city, & one of few places that can claim that you're not just there for the view. The cocktails are incredible & well crafted, shoutout Louis for the coolest Japanese inspired menu. This is a spot where the drinks & the views combine into the perfect evening. Definitely a must visit bar if you're in the city!

Bar/café situé au dernier étage. Belle vue à 360° de Montreal & boissons/viennoiserie bonnes.
Dommage que ça ait ouvert avec 1h de retard ce jour-là & qu'il y avait des travaux juste à côté du bar, ce qui rendait le lieu assez bruyant.
Il y a également assez peu de places pour s'installer, le lieu est vite remplis.
Bravo tout de même à l'employée qui était seule pour tout gérer.
