Situé au 5e étage de l’Hôtel Nelligan se trouve une terrasse sur le toit accueillant les invités et les locaux pour se détendre, manger, siroter et admirer les vues du Vieux-Port. Incarnant l’élégance urbaine nichée dans une architecture intemporelle, l’espace repensé est conçu pour rehausser votre été avec des cocktails signature, un menu élaboré et une atmosphère décontractée du matin au soir, avec des soirées DJ le week-end.
La Terrasse Nelligan offre un cadre sur le toit avec une vue magnifique sur le Vieux Port, une terrasse belle et une ambiance a la fois dynamique et détendue, ideale pour profiter du coucher du soleil et passer une soirée entre amis. Les cocktails et les boissons sont souvent salués pour leur créativité et leur qualité, tandis que le menu propose des plats d'inspiration méditerranéenne et des fruits de mer frais qui ont plu à de nombreux visiteurs, même si certains trouvent certains plats un peu chers ou parfois d'exécution inégale. Le service est décrit comme attentif et sympathique lorsque le personnel est disponible, avec des retours positifs sur une assistance rapide et efficace, mais quelques moments de service plus lent apparaissent durant les périodes d'affluence. Dans l'ensemble, Terrasse Nelligan est souvent présente comme une adresse incontournable pour admirer la vue, déguster de bons cocktails et profiter d'une expérience de terrasse mémorable à Montréal.
I don't mean to be a kill joy but this place is vastly over rated & over priced. It's nice & mildly above average because of its location & retractable roof that lets you enjoy the terrace rain or shine. The service is plentiful & friendly. My rating regarding food is a little off because we didn't eat. We only had drinks, so that's what I'm eating. The cocktails on their menu, beer, & wine are the only drinks they do well. If you order a typical bar drink (ie an Old Fashion) you will be disappointed by an unbalanced watery drink. I think the ice that was used in the shaker was dumped out in the glass because when the drink was brought over the color was very light.
When people post about the stunning views, I wonder where they were looking? Again it's nice. Average. Please save the word stunning for more appropriate usage. Overall review: Nice view, good vibe, over prized drinks, pleasant service. Would I return? No. Was I unhappy? No.
The only attraction is the nice view to the old port & little cute birds flying on the chairs & fences. BUT food is so so & pricy. & it is very disturbing that too many bees fly around & even dive into my cocktail 😓.
Food was great. The view is splendid from the Terrasse. Also, friendly & efficient staff members especially Zach who offered us a great service throughout the night. Would recommend this spot for cozy nights with friends/family or even dates.
Great night out in the middle of old port with a beautiful view on the waterfront! Valet parking downstairs so getting to the place is not a headache. The service was amazing, with our waiter William going above & beyond to ensure we have everything we need for the whole night & the manager, Kamel, personally bringing out our entree & checking up on us throughout the night. We were also treated with some amazing desserts :) The dj set was amazing & the music was just loud enough to set up a perfect atmosphere & quiet enough to be able to have a conversation without needing to yell over the music. The whole atmosphere of the place is very vacation-style! We had a very good night & will be back again!
Two stars are mainly for the view & location. The food is really average. But the main reason that makes me not want to come back is service. They have dropped a phone of my friend while putting cocktails on the table. Table wouldn't get cleaned between services & I got a cocktail with an insect inside. & after all of this when we tried to leave less than 15% tip because we did not enjoy the service, a waitress stood over us telling that in Quebec 15% is the minimum & that's what we should tip. A) It should be our decision how much to tip; B) Tip is not a given, it's a compliment for a good service that we didn't receive unfortunately
We loved the design of the terrace feels like you are in France , beautiful view, drinks were great ! & food was super good , the truffle omelette for brunch was delicious & all of our table was very happy with the food too, I have been several times here & it never disappoints!

After months of passing by Terrace Nelligan, I noticed one thing: it's always busy on weekends. Whether the crowd is spilling over from the hotel or flocking specifically to the restaurant, one thing was certain-I had to take my wife there. After all this time, I decided to drop by spontaneously without a reservation, curious to see if the glowing reviews lived up to the hype. One thing that stands out about Terrace Nelligan is the staff. They are truly one of a kind. The team is incredibly observant, anticipating needs before they even cross your mind. It's a rare skill, & it made our experience all the more seamless. What really elevates the service, though, is their attitude-warm, welcoming, & genuinely positive. For us, this wasn't just another night out; it was a Tuesday that felt like a packed Friday, thanks to our servers, Marie & Ann-Christine, who made the evening unforgettable. We initially visited just to enjoy the views from the rooftop patio. Old Montreal has its share of recommended rooftop spots, but in my humble opinion, Terrace Nelligan is a hidden gem. Whether you're seated at the back with a view of La Grande Roue de Montréal or at the front facing the Notre-Dame Basilica, you're in for a rare treat, especially on a sunny late afternoon. We ordered the "Plateau de Fromages & Charcuteries" which was beautifully presented on a wooden board, showcasing an array of cheeses, cured meats, & accompaniments. The variety & quality of the ingredients were immediately apparent, making it an ideal starter to share. Cheeses: The selection of cheeses included both local & imported varieties, each offering a distinct flavor profile. From creamy brie to sharp cheddar, the cheeses were perfectly paired with dried fruits & nuts, adding a delightful contrast to the richness. Charcuterie: The cured meats were equally impressive, with thinly sliced prosciutto, salami, & other artisanal cuts. The meats were tender & flavorful, highlighting the skillful curing process. The inclusion of pickles & olives provided a refreshing tang that balanced the savory elements. Accompaniments: The board also featured a selection of artisanal breads & mini-pickle, which complemented the cheeses & meats nicely. The fig jam added a touch of sweetness, while the grainy mustard offered a bit of heat, making each bite a well-rounded experience. Pairing: We paired the Plateau with a bottle of 2021 Gemtree Dragon's Blood Red Wine. The wine's bold & fruity notes enhanced the flavors of the charcuterie & cheeses, creating a harmonious balance that elevated the overall dining experience. Overall Experience: The "Plateau de Fromages & Charcuteries" at Terrace Nelligan is a must-try for anyone looking to indulge in a sophisticated & flavorful appetizer. The combination of high-quality ingredients, attentive service, & stunning views makes it a standout dish. Whether you're a local or a visitor to Montreal, this platter is sure to impress & leave a lasting impression.
I find myself coming back here on repeat & staying longer than I should. The views are to die for & service is 10/10! The DJ on site sets the perfect mood. They have a very kind manager that goes around trying to ensure everyone is comfortable(really nice guy). The most recent time We had a very patient & accommodating waiter Vashti, he was very attentive to our needs. They have the best Lobster roll in my opinion, it keeps me coming back. The beef tarter wasn't to my liking though, won't order it next time. Oh & don't forget to save space for the dessert, it was divine! Overall, it's one of my favourite rooftops in Montreal.
Great dinner of a few sharing plates with friends. Filet was perfectly cooked & the cocktails were tasty. Excellent view of the city. William's service was great & made the night even better. Larry the DJ's mix was perfect for the vibe. Would definitely recommend.
Magnificent terrace with wonderful views. Interesting & stylish decor. Excellent drinks, cocktails, good selection of wines. The kitchen leaves much to be desired, if you want to eat then this is not the place for you, the portions are very small & I wouldn't say that the food here is super tasty. Most likely ok, but not super. But if you want to spend a friendly evening with company in a wonderful atmosphere, then definitely come here.

The food was really not fresh The bagel was dry We changed a stage ingredient & asked instead of cream cheese, in fact we got cheese that was tasteless & without the texture of cream The price is not worth the dish, only the view is beautiful
People go there mostly for the view of the old port . Food is average, not wow but it's good. Just a little expensive. The service is ok too. My only problem was that people were smoking outside while we were eating.
I checked into the hotel about 1/2 an hour after getting off the train. Although I did not have a reservation, I did mention I was staying with the hotel for 4 nights & as there was space they gladly accommodated me. Great outdoor atmosphere with a nice view & breeze off of the Saint Lawrence River. Henry, my waiter ,was friendly, spot on with his recommendations, checked back several times to ask if everything was to my satisfaction & if I required anything else. All the staff were attentive to check for & clear or bring further orders as required. The house guacamole, salade nicoise, 2 Nelligan Margaritas plus 18% tip $109.89. In my opinion, the appetizer of guacamole is sufficient to share between two & the salade nicoise was a good portion for one. Outstanding presentation & taste. I love the outdoor setting & music was quiet enough that one can converse easily. A very relaxed & professional vibe. Thanks to Henry & the staff. P.S. better to book in advance as by 5pm nothing was available until after 7pm.
I came here for a drink tonight. I was lucky to get a seat on the bar without any wait. The Aperol Spritz was mediocre at best. After I got my drink the service was non existent. I had to almost run after a waiter to get the bill. Got a bill that was obviously wrong (120$ instead of 25$). Took ages to get the new one. & as I was finally about to leave the waiter very rudely stops me to inform me that my card got declined when he just messed up the card readers & it was once again a very obviously different amount. Not even an apology for any of the terrible service. The view is fairly nice & the vibe could be great if the staff was somewhat friendly. But it's also rather pricey with 22$ for a Aperol spritz.
It is one of my favorite spots in the city, featuring an amazing rooftop with stunning views. The cocktails are consistently excellent, & the friendly staff, along with the fantastic manager, make every visit memorable.
