| - This is a fun little dive bar with a dance floor, old arcade cames, and a hipstery vibe to it. My boyfriend and I came here to celebrate his birthday on a Sunday night, which is always a tricky night to celebrate. Overall, we had a good time. It was exactly our type of place.
The beers on tap were generally pretty awful, but I wasn't expecting much. I'd stick with the enormous bottles of PBR for sure. The bar tender was attentive and friendly, though he asked my boyfriend what he wanted for a birthday shot, and I'm pretty sure he charged him for it, which seemed kinda sneaky. He provided us with ample free popcorn though, so we forgave him.
We switched back and forth between the dance floor and the hockey arcade game for the night, which was a blast. The music was great, all the way from the 70s to the current day. It's always fun dancing at a place that appreciates older music.
I forgot that the drinking age in Quebec is 18, which to me, makes a big difference in the crowd. There were a lot of drunk younger kids there, which was kind of annoying, but they were just having a good time so I had to remind myself not to be such an old snob. But the crowd was pretty varied, and it doesn't really get busy till 11 or 12. It cleared out pretty quickly too though, I imagine because Sundays are slow in general. I would love to see what this place has to offer on a busier night!
