Ce bar à cocktails est vraiment unique & original, offrant une ambiance hors du commun. Les cocktails sont absolument délicieux & de grande qualité. Cependant, il est important de noter que les prix peuvent être assez élevés, il faut donc s'y préparer.

Creative concept & imaginative drinks. I'm so glad my boyfriend found this place. The atmosphere was fun & the staff were very helpful.

We were those people who couldn't figure out how to get in! Finally saw a review with a picture of the door. The drinks were amazing, & the ambiance was perfect for a relaxing drink after work. The architecture is gorgeous.

A unique experience at The Cold Room! As a true speakeasy, finding it was quite a challenge, which adds to its charm. The key is to look for a black door with an emergency exit sign featuring a rubber duck. Ring the bell & wait... it's worth it! The cocktails were well-crafted, but what really impressed me was the extensive selection of whiskeys, especially Canadian ones. The place was spotless, very professional service, & although the prices are on the higher side, the quality makes up for it. Definitely a spot to return to!

When I arrived at the set address for a friend's birthday, I got lost & ended up in the smallest bar restaurant in Montreal! So one thing about The Coldroom, is that it maintains the essence of what it means to be a speakeasy! When we arrived, we were escorted to our seats by our server for the night, our server was quick, efficient & told us all we needed to know about speakeasy culture an the menu items for the night. I opted for a drink similar to a Bloody Mary & I thoroughly enjoyed it! The snacks on the other had were just okay. The atmosphere was lovely & it's definitely a place I would return to with friends!

This is one bar I love. You have to look for the plain black door with a doorbell. Once inside you are escorted down a flight of stairs & into the bar. Atmosphere was perfect with the right balance of music. Everyone there is very friendly. Don't forget to bring your duck.

The Coldroom is a must-visit hidden gem in Montréal! Tucked away behind an unassuming door, this speakeasy-style bar offers an unforgettable cocktail experience. The moment you step inside, you're greeted by a warm, intimate atmosphere & an incredibly knowledgeable staff. The cocktails here are nothing short of amazing! The menu offers a wide variety of creative & expertly crafted drinks that cater to every taste, whether you're into something fruity, strong, or completely unique. Each cocktail is made with precision & flair, making the experience even more special. What I love most is how they mix classic cocktails with innovative twists, & they're always ready to whip up something off the menu if you're feeling adventurous. The hidden location adds to the charm, making it feel like you've stumbled upon something truly special. If you're in Montréal, The Coldroom is an absolute must for anyone who loves great cocktails & a unique, secretive vibe!

2024: friendly efficient service on a Tuesday. Drinks were great, I had the Money Talks & Rice to Meet You which were balanced & strong. Love the cute duck menu but not sure where they're going with the uninspired decor. Music wasn't memorable either. 2019: Great service & decent drinks but was a bit disappointed considering the amazing Christmas pop-up bar was created by the same people. Despite being a speakeasy, it didn't really have any sort of classy loungey vibe like all the others, & felt more like a pub atmosphere.

Fun little place. The speakeasy part of it just means they have an unmarked door (look for it across the street from Bevo) - they're not snooty or exclusive in any way. Good cocktails, full & with hip music, but not overly packed/loud - they keep a good balance.
Carrie
Terrific cocktail experience. Bartender had wealth of knowledge & was so helpful. The vibe was top notch.
Leanne
A dimly lit, super cute speak easy that wasn't easy to find but not impossible! Loved the vibe inside that had quite a bit of seating both at the bar & table. Drink selection was unique & you'll want to have a bit of an adventurous palette.

Aube, Camille & Francis made our visit the best experience ever. They are super friendly, helpful & a lot of fun. The atmosphere is cozy & a great vibe. Francis is very knowledgeable on all things whiskey. Wish I lived closer, I would be a regular for sure!
