Even those with more casual interest in beer probably know that DDC makes really great drinks. And yep, they were excellent. I wasn't there to do a long session, so I got a couple tasters, one including Peche Mortal and the other a NEIPA. Two very different styles and both extremely well done. Beyond that, the space had a very old-fashioned look. Really nice wooden fixtures and a very warm, welcoming vibe. The server was also attentive and friendly, but also knew when to let people sit back and enjoy their drinks. You probably don't need me to tell you, but yes, you should go.

When planning my brother's bachelor party weekend in Montreal, I kept him out of the major event…read moreplanning but asked if there were any high-level things he wanted to hit while we were there. He expressed interest in hitting up some breweries, so I did some research and compiled a few we could potentially visit. Brasserie Dieu du Ciel was one of them, and it just so happened we were in its vicinity after our Mile End food tour concluded. That being said, we made our way over. While I am not a beer person myself, I'll have a round or two if I'm with a group, and can appreciate a good brewery. My first impression of Dieu du Ciel was just that - the vibes were on walking in. The space is pretty large - kinda separated into semi- compartmentalized spaces with tables throughout. There's not much decor, but medium-toned woods throughout which gave it a sort of upscale feel. They offer a food menu, but we were just here for drinks. They have a really wide selection of beer - again, I'm no connoisseur, but I could tell that the selection was way more than other breweries I've been to. I ended up getting a cider for the first round and a stout for my second round - both very good. Service was great, and overall we enjoyed our time at Dieu du Ciel. Their selection and comfortable setting made it a standout brewery for me out of the ones I've visited in Montreal - I wouldn't hesitate to return.

I have discovered something extremely important about Montreal:…read more There are pubs where I am allowed INSIDE. Brutopia is practically next door to our temporary Montreal headquarters, so I suspect I will be conducting extensive research here over the next two weeks. Our first visit happened on a rainy evening, which immediately demonstrated Brutopia's greatest feature: DOGS. ARE. ALLOWED. INSIDE. Finally, a country that respects my social calendar. Brutopia is much bigger than it first appears. Once inside, there are multiple rooms with different types of seating, giving it that cozy, rambling pub feeling where you could easily find your own little corner and settle in for the evening. But despite the rain, Mum and Dad decided we should investigate the upstairs outdoor patio. Excellent decision. It's a really cool space with a huge colorful mural, hanging plants and a slightly greenhouse-y feel. Add in the fact that they sometimes have live music, and I can already tell this is going to become one of our neighborhood hangouts. Mum ordered a Caesar salad with bacon. I would like everyone to focus on one particular word in that sentence. BACON. I positioned myself appropriately. I stared. I waited. I even wore a hoodie to dinner, so frankly I don't know what more was expected of me. Meanwhile, Mum and Dad enjoyed a couple of drinks while I relaxed and took in the scene. Brutopia isn't trying to be a fancy dog restaurant with pup menus and elaborate canine amenities. What makes it special is actually more useful: I can come inside with my humans. On a rainy day--or eventually a chilly Montreal evening--that is a HUGE win for anyone traveling with a dog. And since we're staying practically next door... I believe I have found my local. Dogba's verdict: 5 paws out of 5. Dogs allowed INSIDE: Rain ruining our plans: NOT TODAY Cool upstairs patio: Giant mural: excellent backdrop for important dogs Live music potential: noted Drinks for Mum & Dad: plentiful Bacon on Mum's Caesar salad: I saw it. Distance from temporary headquarters: dangerously convenient Would return. In fact, considering the location, there is a very strong possibility that I now work here.

A few of us made a quick stop at Brutopia for a round of beer and food before heading back to the…read morehotel. We were originally over by the Jean-Talon Market, and since we were staying downtown we wanted to find somewhere on our way back. Brutopia fit the bill, so off we went. I really liked the vibes as soon as we entered - the place isn't too large, but still spacious enough to have two semi-split up rooms. We stayed in the front room that housed the bar, some tables, as well as a small stage where (I assume) live music plays. The decor had somewhat of a music theme, as one of the walls was covered in pictures of famous artists. We had a round - I'm not the biggest beer person but had a cider which was good. We also split a poutine - we opted for the popcorn chicken one which was tasty. Everyone was really friendly, and we were even talking it up with a fellow patron who was also from New York. Service was great, and although it was only a short stay, I had a good experience at Brutopia. I wouldn't hesitate to return next time I'm in the area.

My wife had a veggie burger with fries. While a bit messy, she also thought it was very good. Service was friendly and around when we needed it. After eating, we walked inside and around the taproom and windows where you can see the brewing area. Highly recommend!

It has 3 slices of ham (good and cooked in maple syrup I think), crispy bacon, sausages, eggs, baked beans and breakfast potatoes. The eggs were runny and solid at the same time which I didn't like while the potatoes were seemingly undercooked on the inside but fried on the outside. Their sausages were alright. Basically, only the beans, bacon and ham were good. The duck poutine beer sauce was delicious but heavy as you can imagine. The beet salad was fresh and nicely marinated. They offer a generous pint sized glass of cider based mimosas. On weekends, they offer an all you can eat breakfast for $35 with up to 10 drinks. How it works is they bring your table plates to share. We didn't try that since we weren't that hungry.

Ever so sea-salty and the texture is chewy like squid. Delicious. SMOKED SCALLOPS?! Divine texture and delicate sweet taste. The rillettes were incredible. So was the smoked salmon. A smear of butter or cream to put on the bread along with the smoked salmon is the only thing I would add to this dreaminess. The price was very good for such elegance, around $24.

We made a stop at Siboire during a Mile End food tour. As is typically customary with other food…read moretours I've been on, there is at least one stop where we sit down - and for this tour this was it. Walking in, we were greeted by a large space. It looks really stunning - everything looks new and clean with plenty of seating in the large dining room. When we arrived it wasn't too crowded and were seated towards the side of the dining room close to the windows. At its heart, this is a brewery and they have a good selection of craft beer. We were given the option of beer if we wanted to pay on our own, but we were really there for poutine which was included in the tour. I'm not much of a beer person so I passed, but did partake in the poutine. It was pretty good, though I wouldn't say it was too noteworthy. I have now had poutine from several places in the city, and this would be middle of the road for me. It was tasty and quality, but nothing too exciting. I don't really fault them though, as poutine is not the star of the show here. Service as good - overall I had a fine experience at Siboire. I need to return to explore more of their menu - and possibly a beer.

He said our group wasn't lucrative and disorganized without any more info. He said concession were made for the fact we didn't have any fixed menu or minimum per head while a the time of reservation, none of this was on the website. I see today that it now have different option depending of group with the special menu we received. I was told it was because it's during Christmas season and that's why we changed the date since it's not a Christmas gathering. Anyway, in the end, the person simply ban me and my group from any reservation at 3 brasseurs. Talk about good customer service! That's not how you get back a customer that had a bad experience.
