Taking the title Canada’s smallest bar @elpequenobarmtl definitely delivers on its accurate name. A very intimate setting where you will most definitely make freinds as no conversation is private in the 9 seat, rhum focused bar.
It has been voted (we’re not sure by who)
#7@canadasbest100 and #29@50bestbars in North America in 2022 (they did not make the 2023 list).
But, honestly…we’re not very sure why.
We did enjoy our drink and experience meeting mostly tourists there. However, the cocktails we had were nothing spectacular. Surely not worthy of those rankings.
Paired with a bartender with a less than amicable attitude (probably due to the fact that there can really only be one, very stressed, employee at a time) we felt more like we were in a waiting room for @thecoldroommtl with which it shares a stairwell. (As were all the people we talked to)
