| - fantastic beers - OOH the seasonal is full of such rich, spicy flavors, and the cherry porter has a perfect deep & tart balance - good music, and dim lighting. a girl couldn't ask for much more... except maybe get rid of the only uppity french speaker i encountered in my entire 5-day stay in Montreal! we visited twice and loved the place. the staff was generally friendly and helpful, but they must admit they have an odd payment policy: debit cards only, but not Visa debit. when my husband went to pay, he was clearly not understanding this, clearly getting frustrated, but rather than explain things in any other terms or find someone else to help him, the bartender threw her hands up in the air and walked away from him. left him standing there, confused, embarrassed, fuming. while he walked to the gas station up the street (which was out of order) to get cash to pay the bill, i watched her curtly correct another patron's French as he ordered for his 4 friends. how rude! and she repeated herself in case he didn't hear the first time!! otherwise, had a great time here. just a shame to end on such a sour note. i really wanted one of those sweet t-shirts, but i wasn't about to spend another minute/dime talking to that snippy girl.
