The Top 4 Cocktail Bars Near Restaurant Alentours
-
Rank 1. Kebec Club Privé
Creative
A converted hairdressing salon with industrial bones hosts ten diners nightly around a single candlelit table, where chef-owners Cassandre Osterroth and Pierre-Olivier Pelletier cook a shifting ten-course menu rooted in Quebec ingredients—cod in smoked oil, scallops in herring bone jus, roasted quail—each plate marked by precise technique and restrained elegance rather than flourish.
-
Rank 2. Torii Izakaya
Japanese
A narrow izakaya where the open kitchen and bar counter set the rhythm: lunch brings dumplings with salmon mousseline and karaage, while evenings add blackboard specials of market fish and eel treated with quiet refinement. The room feels properly lived-in, neither precious nor casual.
-
Rank 3. 1608
Cocktail Bar
A circular brass bar in a historic turret overlooks the St. Lawrence River, where the cocktail menu pivots seasonally through literary references and Canadian terroir—maple gum, verjus from Île d'Orléans—rather than resting on the Scotch-and-cigar mythology that once defined the room. The refinement lingers, but the ambition has shifted toward what grows nearby.
