This might have been our favorite bar in Montreal.
The atmosphere here was relaxed, composed, swank, inviting. It wasn't as loud as most places on St. Laurent, which was a welcome change. On average, the crowd was may 10 years older than that of most other places we went. The interior design was interesting and hip without being overdone. I really liked the lighting arrangements.
They serve a handful of beers and spirits and some well-crafted cocktails (there was one with scotch and a bit of maple syrup that was particularly tasty), but the menu is composed mostly of wines. The bartender was very friendly, entertaining, and patient.
My travel companion and I stopped here relatively early in the evening. We were only going to get one drink, but ended up staying for most of the night, and would probably have gone back the next night if they were open.
