Commitment is going to La Distillerie when its -35degrees outside, or its raining and you don't have an umbrella. I have done both and I can safely say, when the mood calls for good cocktails- this is my go to place.
This place has tons of cocktail varieties on and off the menu, unlimited goldfish crackers is a bonus (before 7pm). They have all kinds of fruit based cocktails which is my favourite, their Pina Colada is unique and a must try.
This place is packed during weekends, they have board games, and BYOF? (just realized yesterday). They mention the alcohol taste intensity (which I found is useful while brainstorming choices).
Watch out for the front cover of the menu, its usually snaps of their staff!
This is a Montreal must try! Highly recommend this place to everyone (even drag your friends who don't drink)
