Honestly, I had more fun at this place than a lot of other higher rated bars in Montreal. Maybe it was the proximity to our AirBnB, or maybe it was because one of the few unpretentious, overpriced bars that we found, but we Angelenos felt right at home here. If you're looking for a solid dive bar with good service and clean restrooms, I'd give this place a try :)

Booze is normal price at $6 for mixed drinks. Everyone is easy going and the music is pretty good and loud (rock, punk, psychobilly,etc). The selection depends on whose the bartender that night since there is no juke box. The only thing significant I noticed is it doesnt pickup till about 10PM till 1030 PM. If you show up before that dont be surprise if it seems dead. But come the "magic" hour the place will fill up in like 10-15 minutes. Pretty impressive. Its off the Mont Royal Metro stop if your riding the subway.

I can't speak to La Tulipe as a club since I've only been here for shows, I've seen Bluelight Burlesque productions here and recently came to see Daniel Ash and Kevin Haskins of Bauhaus/Tones on Tail/Love & Rockets fame and it was just the perfect place to see them for what turned out to be an amazing show full of nostalgia and tunes I thought I would never hear live again. There's an area near the stage where those who want to take in the show in general admission form can go and stand (be careful because slam-dancing always inevitably breaks out) and tables further back where you can sit, sip your drinks and take in the show leisurely. Drinks are reasonably priced and the crowd is pretty chill. I'll have to come here some Saturday night so I can check out 80s night.

I wasn't disappointed with La Tulipe (if you don't count the remixed version of Miami Sound Machine's Conga). The music was eclectic, from U2 and New Order to B52s, Human League, The Cure, OMD, Joan Jett, and aforementioned MSM, plus a few cusp acts like Boney M, Michael Jackson (when he was still black), Deee Lite. It was like going back to my students days :). As I also spent a year in France at the time, I enjoyed hearing a smattering of hits by Les Rita Mitsouko, Niagara and Indochine. The crowd was also eclectic: with people who were there in the 80s, their kids, and those in between, as many English speakers as French speakers, I'd say. There was a pick-up vibe I have rarely seen in Montreal, but nothing overly intrusive. Still, if you are looking to hook up with someone, the chances are you could... Entrance fee is now $8, and drinks were regular bar prices. Service was quick and friendly. I'm definitely going back!

The crowd on the dance floor was as mixed as the music they played - 70s, 80s, 90s, hip hop and top 40s. The bar also offers a pool table where you'd also get an occasional dance up from the players and tables and chairs in the back to put your stuff down or to take a break. It's dated, divey and drinks were flowin because they were cheap. Thanks Paul for being born and having a reason to celebrate! We will definitely be back!

**Une expérience cauchemardesque - à éviter à tout prix !**…read more Si je pouvais mettre zéro étoile, je le ferais sans hésiter. Notre passage à **L'Abreuvoir** a été, de loin, l'une des pires expériences de bar que nous avons vécues à Montréal. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis avec un service exécrable, des regards hautains et une attitude méprisante du personnel. Jusque-là, on aurait pu mettre ça sur une mauvaise journée... mais la suite a confirmé qu'il s'agissait plutôt d'un **manque total de professionnalisme**. Nous avons également été victimes d'un comportement **clairement discriminatoire** sous prétexte de notre apparence, ce qui est totalement inacceptable en 2025 ! Comment un établissement peut-il encore tolérer ce genre de pratiques ? Côté prix, c'est une **arnaque pure et simple**. Des boissons surfacturées, des verres mal dosés et une addition salée qui ne reflète en rien la qualité du service ni des produits. On a presque eu l'impression qu'ils ajoutaient des frais au hasard, en espérant qu'on ne s'en rende pas compte. Mais le pire restait à venir : l'ambiance du bar était **tout sauf sécuritaire**. Entre une foule agitée et un videur à l'attitude agressive, nous ne nous sommes jamais sentis en sécurité. Quand un membre du personnel **se permet d'exhiber une arme à feu**, il est clair qu'on n'est plus dans un cadre normal. Honnêtement, c'était suffisant pour qu'on quitte les lieux immédiatement. En bref, **évitez cet endroit à tout prix**. Montréal regorge de bars mille fois plus accueillants, sécuritaires et respectueux de leur clientèle. **L'Abreuvoir ne mérite ni votre temps, ni votre argent.**

I've never gotten food but I think they do have some. I think the side tables and high chairs aren't too comfortable but unless you show up early, you won't get the prime tables in front of the stage. It does get a bit hot inside and sometimes there is a cover charge so keep that in mind. I think the location is great for live music, the sound is clear and you see clearly.
