We walked in here randomly while visiting Old Montreal because we heard music as we were walking nearby. We went on a weekday, so we didn't have to deal with cover and there weren't that many people present at around 9pm. We are Americans; so I got to use my token French phrase: "parlez vous anglais?" on the bartender as she greeted us in a slew of French. She was real sweet and responded in English "yes, I speak English." Drinks were a little pricey. We also ordered spinach dip and chips, which was very obviously out of a jar, (or maybe it was just that well made, I'll never know), which was a very generous portion for only $6. The piano player performed real well. She sang a mix of french and english songs. I couldn't understand her when she was trying to engage the audience since I don't speak French, but this is definitely a decent place to go for a little live music. We were only in Montreal for 1 night and I don't regret chilling here for an hour or 2 that night.
