Our nightlife is what makes our city and I really hope the provincial and federal government get together behind some actual coordinated support for these crucial local businesses. I used to live near Hemisphere gauche and have walked by all kinds of different crowds gathered outside, it's so awesome to see how different kinds of communities can feel welcomed in live music venues and bars and I love walking by and feeling, not just unthreatened, but somehow welcomed in their midst. I've sat on the window ledge here and enjoyed a cheep beer and the people watching, and I've rolled in here with a crew of badass lady friends after another bar closed and the staff let us take over their karaoke set up and drink whiskey and sing all our frustrations out till closing time, no fuss.

We should have recorded it. Other patrons were laughing so hard and amazed by our improvisation. I really appreciate the care and diligence the staff put into making sure I was safe in Montreal especially since I was a solo female traveler. Parking was easier than other Montreal areas. I was able to dine at a restaurant prior to the show. The bar didn't have food service. I will definitely go back when I revisit Montreal. I felt safe.

When everyone went out for a smoke break in between sets, we went right up to the front of the stage area to get a great spot for the headliner. There was space in the back for them to set up the merch tables, and there's tables on the sides of the venue that are for those who wish to sit (not many, but a couple). I'm not sure what it would be like on "calmer" nights but for what it was, it was fun.

Last night at 12:30 as people pushed around the bar the tough Quebecoise old school bar back kept up a smile and did a better job of keeping track of who was due their booze next than many a trendy cocktail lounge one might name, and cracked jokes and complimented the home made muffins on the bar to boot. Jameson at $5.50, bottle of water at a dollar, bag o chips a buck fifty, ie; no jimmyriggery in the prices of things had my adorable companion declaring it her favourite bar as she prepared for a long night of shows and shows and work on shows and shows... Speaking of the show: we left the bar and pushed up front to join the crowd at the "stage" by the window wondering how the sound would be. Not least because this was no solo acoustic set but the full DIY electro playfulness of a Fixture records showcase: open computer bodies and VHS tapes being played and layered over drum machines and loops and pedals, and you know from what I saw and heard it all worked out. None of the sudden tonal anarchy we were getting from the system at Cagibi earlier in the evening where, let's face it, the wiring is way too old for amps and keys and things. Beaubien held it down and made it's smiling old folks, hustling to bring in ice and serve the kids, well proud. I hope the rest of Pop is a mad success for them and they continue to be a space for great live music up here north of the underpass. Long live Beaubien.

The first time, the music was extremely loud, and it seemed like they were short-staffed. The bar was completely packed, and there was only one bartender making drinks, so the wait was a bit longer than expected. We decided to give it another try, and I'm so glad we did. The second visit was amazing! The bartender working that night was incredible--she clearly knows her craft and made our drinks quickly without sacrificing quality. Every cocktail was delicious, and the overall experience was much more enjoyable. Overall, I highly recommend The Coldroom. My only suggestion would be that, with a space that busy, the bar could really benefit from having an additional bartender during peak hours. It would help keep wait times down and make an already great experience even better.

Most of the comedians are up and coming or starting to perform for their first few times. As for the actual bar, it could use some updating. It did not feel so clean inside and was quite dark upon entry of the venue. Not sure why this was, as when I arrived, they were getting ready for the stand up comedy show. If they focused on cleaning this place up and making it more appealing, then I would probably add another star to the review.
