"Enter this semi-secret bar by ringing the bell next to the big, imposing black door at the corner of Saint-Amable and Saint-Vincent streets, and one of the bartenders will let you in. Head down the stairs and through the low-ceilinged hallway and voilà: you've made it to Coldroom, an underground—literally—hot spot. This stylish speakeasy, by Kevin Demers of Flyjin fame, has charmed not only Montreal's clubbing elite, but also an ever-growing list of international superstars. Much like the décor, the drinks are classic with next-level twists. Try the Japanese Highball (Toki whiskey with lemon zest and soda) or the savory Kingfisher (Citadelle gin with Lustau sherry amontillado, Cocchi Americano, caper brine, and turmeric)." - Isa Tousignant
