Craft cocktails & choice nibbles in a contemporary hotel bar


























"Don’t be fooled; despite its location inside a massive chain hotel, Nacarat makes some of the most thoughtful, well-executed cocktails in the city. Bartenders spend months testing recipes before they make the menu, if they even make the cut at all, making for long menus that are equal parts classic cocktails and personal inventions." - JP Karwacki


"Nestled inside the Queen Elizabeth Hotel this sophisticated bar offers a considerable selection of wines, spirits, and cocktails, plus small plates to nibble on. The terrasse, with DJ sets and barbecue food, is where to be in the summer months." - Erinn Blicher

"Nacarat and its sun-soaked terrasse atop the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth Hotel have been charming cocktail enthusiasts with classics, originals, and an overall hefty selection of spirits for years. They’ve even got some zero-proof options made with non-alcoholic Seedlip." - Tim Forster

"Hotels are always a good bet for solid A/C, and the swanky Fairmont Queen Elizabeth (which also houses a large artisan food hall full of high-end goodies) is perfect for a lazy meander on a sweltering hot day. While you’re there, stop by Nacarat, the Queen Elizabeth’s classy cocktail bar with a creative, flavour-forward menu (on which the drinks are categorized by flavour profile)." - Holly Tousignant


"Inside the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth, Nacarat in Montreal puts concerted effort into its alcohol-free cocktails, though it otherwise serves alcohol." - Tim Forster
