Les avis sur The Coldroom convergent vers une expérience de speakeasy caché et chaleureux, avec une entrée discrète et un décor en briques et en bois qui crée une atmosphère intimiste et underground; les cocktails obtiennent des éloges pour leur créativité, leur équilibre et leur variété, certains menus thématiques conférant une touche ludique et des boissons signature comme Death Mark ou Rice to Meet You; le service est souvent décrit comme attentif et compétent, mais certaines expériences signalent un service inégal ou des temps d'attente importants, surtout les soirs de week-end; l'emplacement dans le Vieux-Montreal et l'ambiance sombre et cosy séduisent et donnent envie d'y revenir, en particulier pour les amateurs de cocktails avertis; il faut toutefois noter une offre alimentaire limitée et des prix parfois jugés élevés, ce qui n'empêche pas que The Coldroom reste une destination prisée pour une soirée raffinée et originale, malgré quelques bémols.
We visited Cold Room Speakeasy on Friday after having an amazing experience with Sarah at el Pequeno. We came to Cold Room just to be served by her again, even tho she was a hostess she did not disappoint. Despite the long line & impatient guests, Sarah was warm, welcoming, & made sure we were well taken care of.
The drinks were fantastic expertly crafted & definitely worth the visit.
The only downside was our server, Lilie, who came off as rude & arrogant, which was a bit of a letdown.
Cold Room is definitely worth checking out, especially for the drinks & Sarah's hospitality!
Highly recommended. If you go Mon-Thu, it will be less busy. Drinks from menu are great! The bar tenders are highly attentive to detail & service. The only reason for they are not getting 5 starts from me (someone extremely picky when it comes to the hospitality industry), I ordered a gin & tonic after ordering some of their amazing drinks from the menu, & the g&t wasn't what I had hopped for.
FYI, best g&t I have ever had are served in the Basque Country.

Really cool speakeasy craft cocktail bar with very skilled bartenders. It can be a little hard to find, but all you do is ring a doorbell & wait for staff to come & add you to a waitlist. In the meantime there is a pre-bar to the main bar next to the entrance.
I got the Smoking Gun, Joe Peachi, & then an Espresso Martini. & my sister & I both got their long sleeve T-shirts. They're all balanced & decorated well. The menu also has descriptions for each drink. & they have some non-alcoholic mocktails too!
It's got a very cozy vibe despite the juxtaposition of a boiler room/cellar aesthetic, & the bathrooms are pretty cool!
Also, I pulled Narita Brian in Uma Musume during her banner event with one roll, so you know this is a lucky spot! Definitely coming back next time I'm in Montreal & gets a big recommendation for all my Mixology friends.
Incroyable 😻! Speakeasy ❤?❤?❤? L'ambiance est tellement bonne. L'endroit était bondé de monde. Les drinks excellent ma fois ;) Le service incroyable 🤩.
Beautiful little hidden gem, with old beautiful details. It's one of a kind cocktails experience, a must have. They ask you questions about our tastes, then they crate a mix for you. We loved every drink. I highly recommend
Fun speakeasy because you get to press a button to get in. The music was a lot of fun. Crowded & boozy drinks. Took a while for us to order & get our drinks. Interesting crowd.
Pour les fins connaisseurs, ce sont des drinks bien particuliers qui nécessitent un goût développé pour les drinks. L'ambiance est très bien. Attente très longue avant d'avoir une place meme en debut de soirée.

Went to Coldroom last night with my bf & we loved it. The drinks were amazing, the vibe was super cool, kind of underground & dimly lit. Our server Evelyn was really attentive & friendly. We will be back next time we're in Montreal!
Quite enjoyed this place. Didn't take long to get in (weekday early evening), loved the service & selection (drinks at the bar). Not too loud, not too bright, not too expensive. Good stuff.
Pretentious is an understatement. Staff is rude & too used to shitting on tourists as a form of being hip. Drinks were average & overpriced. Bar Big In Japan & even a nice restaurant like Mon Lapain which is more wine focused put this place to shame in cocktails for 30% less cost. Solid MEH

I'm visiting Montreal for the first time & had a fantastic experience at the Coldroom. The drinks were delicious, & most importantly, our server Lilie was excellent & made sure we had an enjoyable experience. Lilie had tailored cocktail recommendations for each of us & also provided helpful information about Montreal. I highly recommend getting a cocktail at the Coldroom, but make sure you ask for Lilie!
Press the doorbell & wait for someone to open! A hidden gem with a stylish, laid-back vibe, this speakeasy delivers a solid cocktail menu & an even better atmosphere. Drinks are good-well-balanced & creative without trying too hard. Great spot for a chill, low-key night out.

Good drinks & a fun atmosphere. Dim lighting, intimate setting. The menu was adorable! I really enjoyed the back story of each drink. The'play the field' was my favorite drink. Attentive service.
Luis was outstanding! He took the time to tell us about all the cocktails & delivered the most amazing drinks to us. It truly was an unforgettable experience.
First things first, press this doorbell for the bartender to come let you in (see picture). We absolutely loved this hidden gem. Bartenders were super nice & experienced. I asked them to make a gin based drink that was a bit fruity & mildly sweet & they delivered! We did the same thing when we asked for a shot so don't be afraid to ask the bartender to surprise you with an original creation.
One of our favorite speakeasies in Montreal. Secret entrance way (press the bell & wait patiently!), friendly servers, creative cocktail menu, & a very'cool' vibe - the perfect mix for a speakeasy!
Each drink is unique in its taste & presentation…it is always fun to try them all or just name your flavor note & the bartender can come up with a surprise.
