Info & Location
About us
In Old Montreal, just south of the Financial District, sits The Farsides. Brought to you by John Edward Gumbley (Bord’Elle) and the Jegantic team, the Farsides is an edgy new take on the restaurant and bar scene. Our blend of culinary styling sets the exotic far eastern flavours of Thailand’s shores crashing into the far Western Beaches of Hawaiian cuisine. The result of this fusion is something we like to call Thaiwaiian. A sumptuous combination of authentic Thai and Hawaiian delicacies, merging familiar flavours with elevated function.
Not only do we consider the Farsides to be a unique take on cuisine, we also aim to please with a brand new re-imagining of the Tiki bar concept. Our mixology program features no less than a dozen modern interpretations of classic cocktails you would normally only expect to find on the Islands.
Stepping into the Farsides will be like walking into our version of an alleyway in Brooklyn circa 1992. Complete with brick walls as high as the eye can see, fire escapes, graffiti laced facades and believe it or not our very own hand painted basketball court. Add a touch of the exotic with jungle like overgrowth set to the beat of 80’s & 90’s hip pop and nostalgic memorabilia from the golden age of rap and what you’ll find is The Farsides. Montreal you might not know us but we know you very well.

Je vous recommande ce restaurant où l'ambiance est chaleureuse & classique. Le menu des repas ainsi que des boissons sont diversifiés chacun trouvera son plaisir! Ce qui a embelli ma soirée a été le service de la serveuse attitré à ma section. Geneviève à su me guider dans cette aventure culinaire ses propositions ainsi que son écoute m'ont permis de vivre une belle expérience. C'est une place à visiter avec des collègues, la famille & les amis. Il donne un bon service & est à l'écoute de sa clientèle. ✅View more

The food is good, a little on the pricy side bur you definitely leave the restaurant full. Cocktails are good too. Service on the other hand is not great, servers are not very friendly but not the worse. I would definitely recommend the pineapple chicken & the fried chicken. Steak & fries are mid, other meat dishes are pretty good too.View more
