Superbe speakeasy. Les cocktails sont très bons & l'ambiance est agréable. On peut laisser nos coordonnés à l'entrée & recevoir un texto pour être avisé qu'une place nous attend. C'est bien plus pratique que de devoir attendre en ligne. Pour y entrer, c'est une porte sans écriteau près des arches de fleurs avec une sonnette discrète.View more
Atmosphere: 7.5/10
Tucked away in Old Montreal, The Coldroom is a true speakeasy with an unmarked entrance & cellar-like vibe. The space feels like a wine cave meets cocktail den - casual & dim, with a long bar counter & multiple group seating areas. Music was slightly too loud, but still manageable for short conversations.
Drinks: 6/10
Recommendation: Sallerac
The menu is themed around a fictional 1970s Montreal rubber duck squat - playful, creative, & packed with personality. Each drink includes its flavor profile, ingredients, & glassware shape, making it easy to navigate. While the menu concept stands out, the drinks themselves fall a bit flat. Presentation is minimal, with no garnish, & the bar uses below-average glassware & no coasters.
Service: 8.5/10
Water was served on arrival. The team was friendly & attentive throughout. Prices are average for Montreal, with a balance between standard cocktails & more premium, exotic options that are fairly priced.View more

We visited the Cold room last night & loved it. Such a nice speakeasy with great cocktails. The staff members were very welcoming & made it a great experience. One of them even wrote a card with recommendations for our stay in Montreal. Thank you so much.View more
The Coldroom provides a great speakeasy experience! Drinks were delicious & quite complex tasting. We had the following drinks: Rice to Meet You, The Musket & The Cold fashion. The mixiologists were great & very friendly! My partner also got a hoodie to remember the experience! I highly recommend you to go, ring the bell & wait a bit! It'll be worth your while!View more
Keep your eyes open for the duck above the door outside, ring the door bell & you're suddenly transported to a prohibition era speakeasy. The cocktail list & whiskey selection are intricate & well crafted. Whether at the bar counter or at a table, the service is always fantastic & we always have a good time with the staff.
There is usually a wait list especially on weekends but that's to be expected. It also gets pretty warm down in the basement during the summer which could be uncomfortable for some.
Make sure to try the severely underated grilled cheese with bourbon butter!
Overall this is my favourite bar to recommend to friends & tourists. It's one of the best bars in Montreal, you won't be disappointed!View more
Classic speakeasy.
Reasonably priced drinks & amazing service.
Perfect vibe. Music wasn't too loud & you could carry a conversation even with it being about 50% full.
Drinks are subjective but their take on the old fashion was a chef's kissView more
The cold room is an amazing experience with the best staff. I can't recommend this place enough.View more
The friendliest trendy speakeasy I've ever been to. Told the bartender my spirit of choice & the flavor I felt like & he worked his magic. Will return.View more
Ordered Joe Peachi, shotgun wedding which was really good. Espresso Martini was terrible & so was the service . The server gave us an attitude since the moment we sat down & kept waiting for us to finish our drink faster & leave the table. By the end, her behaviour went worse. Recommended for drinks or dates but service is poor.View more
Cool place, great service & drinks. I was with a bachelor party that probably shouldn't have been there but they took care of us anyways. Definitely suggest a visit!View more
J'aime trop l'ambiance, pas trop bruyant comme certains bars, la lumière est parfaite aussi. Trop bien de choisir ce bar si tu veux y aller pour un date ou avec des amis!! Mais on n'a pas trop aimé les trois verres qu'on a commandé, rice to meet you est un peu trop sucré, joe peachi n'est pas du tout creamy comme décrit, dans l'ombre est un peu spécial avec le goût de café en arrière.View more
Cocktail sans trop de goût, soit trop alcoolisé ou sucré ! Le serveur n'a pas été de grand conseil sur les choix.. aux vus des prix, nous avons connu de biens meilleures expériences dans d'autres bars de ce style !View more
Très discret si on ne connaît pas on ne sait pas qu'il y a un bar là. Beaucoup de variétés de whisky, bourbon…… Serveuse très sympathique qui a pris le temps de nous conseiller.View more
