The atmosphere here is great! We enjoyed some fancy cocktails & mixed drinks on a Thursday night. Our waiter was very friendly & attentive to us. We didn't leave until almost 2am on a Thursday. Nice to have some night life within the hotel mid week. We would return for drinks again during our next visit. Highly recommend!

Had the most amazing gin & tonic at Bar 1608 in Chateau Frontenac. They make their own tonic. The drink is presented with a sprig of Rosemary, cucumber soaked in gin & juniper berries. It was the most refreshing gin & tonic I have ever had. Complimentary potato chips & popped corn are served with the drinks. & a special treat was seeing the chateau at night. Highly recommend.

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.
