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.

A great place to start your day, we came early in the morning; the view is amazing, you certainly will enjoy your coffee with that view. The coffee was good, even the food but what made me surprised is when I asked to heat my croissant, they don't have an oven for heating the food. This is not acceptable in such a place. I have to try it at night next time. I will definitely go again.

This place is where I proposed my wife. What a great view at night! After eating some unique delicious sushi & caviars while drinking some cocktails, I asked the staff if it was okay to wander around the floor. He said'Sure! Go ahead!' so me & my wife went to sit by a comfy table in a very quiet area all by ourselves & as soon as she looked by the window to enjoy the view, I awkwardly positioned myself on my knee extremely nervously until she turned around & tadaaaa ring in finger. It happened so fast. Don't make my mistake. Take your time LOL!

You're really only paying for the view. The service was nice, & the music was good, although a bit too loud.

The disappointing side was the cocktails. You could tell they were trying to make them complex & thematic, but the flavors fell flat & weren't balanced. They looked great, but overall they were quite tasteless & didn't live up to expectations. The esspresso martini was perty good.

C'est dommage.
Très mauvaise surprise au moment de recevoir la note.
Un supplément de 20$ a été ajouté « coverage » pour la band sans mon accord.
Dans le fond je trouve ça normal de rémunérer des musiciens mais pas au détriment du client.
Aucun signalement in-situ, le personnel me dit m'avoir informé à l'entrée & « tout le monde sait que le mardi c'est 10$ », non.

Je cherche a contacter la direction car indisponible hier soir.

Nous cherchions un rooftop pour admirer le coucher du soleil lors de notre passage à Montréal & c'est sur recommandation d'une connaissance que nous avons choisi Sora 45. Un choix que nous ne regrettons absolument pas !

La vue est tout simplement magnifique & une fois la nuit tombée, elle prend une toute autre dimension. L'endroit idéal pour terminer une belle journée en beauté.

Côté dégustation, tout était à la hauteur : les cocktails sont excellents & la carte fait honneur à l'adresse. Un coup de coeur particulier pour les Bao au canard, savoureux & généreux !

& pour couronner le tout, l'accueil était chaleureux & attentionné. Merci à toute l'équipe de Sora 45 pour ce moment suspendu au-dessus de Montréal. Une adresse que l'on recommande les yeux fermés !
