15 Best Bars in Montreal | Condé Nast Traveler
"Walk into this downtown Montreal bar and you’ll feel like you’ve time-warped back to the 1930s. The team behind Baldwin Barmacy, Whisky Café, and Balsam Inn restored a 1927 Montreal restaurant-bar, giving it a glory it probably never had. Today, booths padded in rich butterscotch leather and a dark-wood bar look storied and majestic. Signature cocktails, which are served in eclectic vintage glassware, include the Canuck, a sweet, tangy mix of bourbon, Canadian maple syrup, lemon juice, and Angostura bitters. The selection of English pub fare ranges from quick bites to full-on meals: Ploughman's platters (pâtés, pickles, and cheeses served with a hunk of bread), Scotch eggs, bangers and mash, a Sunday roast dinner, and a sticky toffee pudding served à la mode." - Isa Tousignant
