I attended the Whisky Café for a bachelor party last weekend on the suggestion of a friend and I was not at all disappointed.
From the minute you walk in, the atmosphere and the mood of this place is great. Very classic and luxurious. Nice dim lighting and low level of mood music add to the incredible experience.
We decided to have some cigars with our Scotch so we were seated in a booth in the cigar lounge. It was very comfortable but could be a bit cramped for bigger fellas.
I ordered a Laphroaig 16 year old and Montecristo 4 and slipped away to heaven for the next hour. It had been so long since I had a great scotch and cigar I was in a state of euphoria. The scotch is served in a proper Glercairn glass and the cigar was fresh and obviously kept properly as it was a nice even slow burn.
Two very minor trivial complaints. One, it was a bit pricey but not outlandishly high. About $70 for my cigar and Scotch. Two, we were content and did not require anything else from our server however, he popped his head over once in an hour and did not even ask if we needed anything else. Come to think of it, that's not such a bad thing. This is the kind of place were you just want to sit and not be bothered.
The washrooms in this place are really cool too. The men urinal is basically a waterfall wall. Clean and well kept.
We arrived in the early evening and the crowd was low so it suited us nicely but by the time we had left, the crowd had picked up and was getting a bit loud so I'm glad we arrived when we did.
Overall I would love to be able to go this place often but being from out of the Montreal area and the price makes it a place reserved for special occasions. Here's to hoping for many more special occasions.
