Five distinct Mile End bars—Bar Henrietta, Dieu du Ciel!, Taverne du Pelican, Bar Kabinet, and Le Roseline—featuring vibrant interiors, signature drinks, inviting terraces, and stylish decor that reflect each venue’s unique atmosphere.

From sticky summer days to snow-covered evenings, Montréal always finds a reason to raise a glass. In the Mile End, natural wine is endless, craft beer is readily available on tap and top-shelf, innovative cocktails are shaken with precision. For unhurried conversations, date nights or a spontaneous 5 à 7s, these are the best neighbourhood bars to enjoy a well-poured drink with a plate of something exceptional.

Often loud and always lively, Bar Henrietta feels like entering a mid-century modern home—dark wood panelling, brass mirrors and even a spiral-corded vintage phone (yes, it does ring). The cocktails are refreshingly simple (the Belle Jaune is a must-try), and the snacks are far from forgettable. Our favourites? Towering spiced popcorn with manchego, beef tartare, gnocchi and the staple Portuguese bifana. On the beverage menu, you’ll find an extensive list of privately imported bubbles and wines, with local options and many imports from France. If you manage to snag a seat at the bar, you’ll catch a front-row view of the open-concept kitchen in action. Keep in mind: they have a no-reservations policy, so arrive early or be prepared to wait.

Dieu du Ciel!

People gather on the bustling outdoor patio of Dieu du Ciel, a popular Montreal microbrewery, beneath the bar’s recognizable sign on a lively city corner.

For a laid-back 5 à 7 or long overdue catch-up with friends, Dieu du Ciel! is consistently a good time. All beers are brewed on-site, with seasonal picks rotating through the year, making it a go-to for craft beer enthusiasts. Both casual and inviting without ever feeling generic, you can expect bold, experimental brews ranging from a cocoa and vanilla stout to a pale ale fermented with koji, along with a tight list of classic cocktails like their Gin Cirka & Tonic. As for food, think comforting pub fare—aged beef burger, fish and chips—but also options with a twist like panko chicken filets and salmon tartare.

Taverne du Pelican

When you’re in the mood for something simple and affordable, Taverne du Pelican is where to go. No frills, no fuss, just a menu that’s unpretentious and thoughtfully created, featuring a small selection of good-quality wine, beer and cocktails. With the crowd as varied as the overheard conversations (longtime locals, students, nearby cooks fresh off their shifts), you’ll spot frosty pints sweating on the metal bar and crisp vodka sodas in short glasses. Since the bar houses a popcorn machine and pool table, it’s easy to see why people tend to linger longer than planned (in the best way possible).

Bar Kabinet

Bar Kabinet is the kind of place that makes you want to dress up—no matter the day of the week. It’s sophisticated, intimate and slightly indulgent. Their luxe cocktails range from a zesty Brazilian lemonade to a Dark & Stormy with homemade ginger syrup. Their impressive wine list features bottles from Italy, France, California, Spain and beyond. With caviar bumps and French-inspired aperitifs like a chicken liver mousse dusted with sea buckthorn gel, there are artful details in every plate, pour and velvet-draped seat. Kabinet was designed for lingering, celebrating and ordering just one or two more rounds, guilt-free.

Le Roseline

Some bars only get better as the evening goes on and this is one of them. With live jazz in the air, dark leather booths and never-ending oysters, Le Roseline has the essence of a chic hotel lobby, with the warmth of an upscale dinner party—serving up dishes like shareable charcuterie, charcoal-grilled octopus and escargot. The wine list leans natural while the cocktails—like the sparkling French ‘75—stay classic.
