The Coldroom fonctionne comme un établissement de type speakeasy mettant l'accent sur des cocktails artisanaux de haute qualité et une sélection spécialisée de plats à partager. Le lieu utilise une esthétique industrielle et tamisée pour favoriser un environnement axé sur la discussion et l'appréciation des boissons. La clientèle choisit parmi une rotation de créations de mixologie saisonnières qui équilibrent des profils aromatiques complexes avec une précision technique rigoureuse. L'axe culinaire repose sur des tapas, privilégiant des assiettes de petit format conçues pour une consommation décontractée dans un cadre partagé. Des murs de briques apparentes et un éclairage feutré définissent l'architecture intérieure, créant une séparation distincte avec l'extérieur urbain environnant. Chaque aspect de l'opération souligne un engagement envers les techniques classiques de barman et une approche raffinée de la consommation sociale. Cet espace constitue une destination privilégiée pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience sociale définie par une préparation minutieuse des boissons.

You ring the door at the'secret entrance' & someone opens the door for you. The dude looked serious but it is part of the experience. The bartenders are amazing with great knowledge & repertoire. The drinks are great & they have the perfect snacks. Part of the magic is when you're drunk & you get kicked out & wow where am I? Suddenly at the'Rue Saint-Paul'. Amazing experience!
The atmosphere was amazing, & finding the bar itself was quite fun. Millie was an amazing server & gave so many recommendations about what to enjoy in Montreal. Definitely will be coming back!
Would have loved to leave a full review on everything from drinks to ambiance, but unfortunately were stopped at the door. After ringing the bell, we were told they were on a wait. We put our name on the waitlist & gave the hostess our contact information, & when pressed for a timeframe, we were told'it's hard to say,' which was frustrating, especially knowing that the industry standard is to always give a time range even something as absurd as anywhere from 15 minutes to over an hour. We waited with increasing frustration as party after party were allowed entrance while we were overlooked. I rationalized that some of these people were already on the waitlist ahead of us & must have received a call or text that their seats were available, however there were others let in that clearly didnt know where the doorbell was as it was their first time visiting. After waiting for over 45 minutes, we left the area. During our wait, the hostess saw us sitting there several times but didnt give us any updates, & was seen darting in & out of the side entrance as she left her station & had to rush back to answer the doorbell which took away from the mystery of the speakeasy. Even after we left, we received no updates, not even to let us know that they would not be able to accomodate us before the bar closed. This has lead me to believe one of four conclusions: 1) the hostess is incompetent 2) bar's standards of hospitality are below that of the industry standard 3) we were dressed inappropriately for the venue, in which case we should have been informed of the dress code (although there were others allowed entry who were dressed as casually as we were) 4) we were discriminated against by, nationality, ethnicity, or sexuality (in which case management needs to adress these issues with their staff).
Vibes & everything was absolutely top tier!!! Staff, drinks, service everything was great. Shout out to Nico for getting us in & Ben for taking care of us! Thanks for the lovely night!
The Coldroom was such a fun & memorable speakeasy experience in Montréal. The hidden entrance, intimate atmosphere, & stylish décor made the place feel special from the moment we walked in. The cocktails were creative, beautifully presented, & expertly made, with plenty of unique flavors beyond the usual bar menu.
The bartenders & staff were friendly, knowledgeable, & made the experience even more enjoyable. It's a great place for a relaxed evening, a date night, or drinks with friends while exploring Old Montréal. Definitely worth visiting for the atmosphere & inventive cocktails!
