Great cocktails & friendly service. Complimentary bar nibbles were very welcome & tasty!
A good excuse to go inside the Chateau Frontenac!

Beautiful bar for a quick cocktail. I got the Fanta-Barbara, it was a delicious tequila/mezcal drink that was like a Paloma & a margarita had a baby. The atmosphere was so beautiful, loved the black beams & wainscoting along the walls. Stunning!

We had two of their signature cocktails & the flavor was amazing. Probably the most elegant drinks we've had & highly recommend stopping by to experience it. The service by Jérémie was excellent. He was knowledgeable, friendly, & his recommendations were shot on.
