| - I've lived in the US for a longest time, and now having moved to Montreal I start appreciating the very different vibe this city has.
When you come to Montreal, don't expect places to be just like they are in Chicago, Boston, Baton Rouge or whatever. Its different, and you got to take it if you want to have fun here.
Anyways, Baldwin is one of the favs on my list. Moderately hipster, moderately trust-fund, some students, some working professionals. Well lit, good music (true - a bit too loud), beautiful people.
Drinks are good. Say hi to the long-haired bartender JF. He has been there forever.
Waitresses are always montreal-hot. Alcohol is on the cheaper side. Try their munchies special - grilled cheese. Its totally worth it.
Generally, this is a good spot to go for happy hour any day or to party on Wednesdays. Thu thru Sat its too packed to be comfortable.
Reserving tables helps. Gotta call them before 9pm to make reservation. No bottle service required for reserved tables though so its a good move.
