- At street level, you’ll find Winnie’s bar-restaurant where you can munch on some great pub fare. And upstairs is Karina, the lounge and dance club. Thursday’s is another Montreal institution. Although it attracts a slightly older crowd, it still features live DJs and bottle service.
- And if you’re a cigar lover, Stogies is an elegant yet down-to-earth smoking lounge with rare Cubans and an extensive single-malt and martini menu.
C. Go to Soubois
So close to the Peel metro station that you can literally crawl there after you get sloshed, Soubois is a chic restaurant-bar that’s truly a stunner. The decor has been described by the management as an “underground enchanted forest” due to its large artistic trees in the centre of the dining room created with fine wood craftsmanship.

6. Partying on St. Laurent aka “The Main” for a Montreal Bachelor Party
A. Apartment 200 for pre-drink
Apt 200 is the ideal chilling spot on St Laurent, the party-central boulevard. Located on the second floor with an incredible decor, blogosphere-approved music, and huge windows that open up in the summer, the place truly gives an intimate feel as if you were at a celebrity’s house party of the year. And oh yeah, there’s an actual “bedroom.” With an actual bed. Make that the groom’s throne for the night.
Apt 200 attracts a younger crowd, so consider yourself warned if things get wild. But if it’s good enough for hip-hop’s current elite including Travis Scott, Nas, Playboi Carti, Metro Boomin and most recently, Kehlani, then it’s definitely good enough for your bachelor party.
3643 St Laurent Blvd, Montreal, Quebec H2X 2V5 | Contact Them Here
B. Or try out Reservoir Brewery or Suzanne Bar
If you’re looking for something more casual, check out Le Reservoir, a popular brewpub just steps away from Parc Jeanne-Mance that offers draft microbrews, global tapas with vegetarian options, and a rooftop patio in the summer. Completely redone last April, the vibe is laid-back and comfortable with its dark high ceilings, industrial beams and wooden-topped tables.
9 Av. Duluth E, Montréal, QC H2W 1G7 | Website Here
You can also visit Suzanne, a speakeasy and dumpling restaurant just across the street with a funky decor (the name is an homage to Montreal icon Leonard Cohen and one of his best known songs). The interior was specifically designed to have a greenhouse feel; it’s a brightly lit space that’s covered in plants and huge skylights. Combined with signature cocktails and a wide variety of music, Suzanne is another great place to start off your night!

C. Then go exploring St. Laurent
There’s so many bars and clubs on the Main that you’ll literally trip over them. A good area to start is at the corner of St Laurent and Prince Arthur Street (the Starbucks is an easy landmark to remember). From there, walk in any direction and you’re sure to have a good time.
- Muzique is a posh nightclub with multiple rooms and dance floors playing different styles of music. Overall, the atmosphere has a high-end feel to it and the spacious rooftop terrace in the summer is fun as well.
- Located just a few blocks down, Rouge Bar is another popular spot on the Main. It’s a sleek, two-story club with different bar areas playing a wide range of music, yet the vibe is less formal than Muzique.
- You can also check out École Privée (French for “private school”), which is run by the same team behind Apt. 200. The place attracts a younger crowd but is still very trendy and often hard to get into without a reservation.
- Check out Bootlegger cocktail bar and cuisine, a speakeasy style cocktail bar serving elevated bites and live music.
- But if you’re looking for something much more laid-back then you have to try McKibbin’s, the quintessential Irish pub on St Laurent with a cozy atmosphere and tons of beer on tap. Their karaoke nights are every Wednesday at 10 pm and they can get pretty wild, so don’t say I didn’t warn you!
5. Plateau Partying for a Montreal Bachelor Party
A. Fitzroy for pre-drink
Located just steps away from the Mont-Royal metro station, Fitzroy is a loft-style bar with 15 billiard tables and 3 foosball tables. The large open space has multiple beautifully-designed areas including a private room for groups of 50 or more. Similar to Kampai, it has an industrial-meets-vintage decor thanks to the exposed-brick walls, dark wood paneling, and retro floor tiles that create an intimate atmosphere. It offers a small menu of gourmet fast-food snacks (chicken wings, poke bowls, dumplings, etc), but their Instagram-worthy cocktails are really the star of the show. To reserve, send a text to (438) 365-3759.

B. Get your cowboy on at Spaghetti Western
Located on Plaza St-Hubert just a bit outside the plateau, this western themed bar is the perfect substitute to that Nashville bachelor party! Put your cowboy hat on, learn some line dancing and drink as many reverse cowgirl cocktails as your heart desires! You can even play a game of pool or 2!

C. Finish at La Banquise for some late-night poutine
You can’t go drinking in Montreal without finishing the night off with some poutine. Especially if you’re having a Montreal Bachelor Party. For the uninitiated, poutine is a uniquely-Canadian delicacy of french fries, gravy and cheese curds that both warms your belly and satisfies drunk cravings like nobody’s business. The casual diner is open 24/7, and they offer tons of unique twists on the classic poutine. Will you need to hit the gym on Monday? Yes. Will the warm, gooey french fries taste amazing after a night of drinking and debauchery? Absolutely.

4. Pick the right strip club for your Montreal Bachelor Party
Let’s make sure you don’t pick the wrong strip club for your friend’s bachelor party, shall we? That could go… really badly. Chez Parée is known for maintaining class while providing you with the sultry experience you’re looking for. It’s a bit pricey, but if you’re looking for a lush, sensual experience you’ll be happy you budgeted for it.
3. Watch the hockey game at a sports bar
Ok, time to get Canadian. Quebec might be the country’s black sheep, but when it comes to Hockey… it blends right in. If your groom is a hockey fan, you have to join Habs fans on game night and experience the rowdy, energetic atmosphere. Irish pubs are plentiful in this city, and usually a great choice for game-watching.
Ye Old Orchard (multiple locations), and Hurley’s are good places to start. These are all located downtown, with a mainly English-speaking crowdFor a taste of Montreal’s trendy, impressive decor bars, you can make your way to Fitzroy on Mont-royal. Fitzroy has pool tables, arcade games, loft space… it’s pretty much a playground. And finally, Burgundy Lion in Little Burgundy is a British pub dedicated to the craft of game watching.
2. What about after hours?
Montreal’s reputation for being a party town doesn’t stop after 3am. No way. Follow the party to Stereo Afterhour when the bars close if you want to keep your legs moving. It’s probably the best known “after” in the city, both for its music and special events. The crowd will be mixed, and remember: no alcohol is served, as 3pm is the cut-off time for sales. So make sure you’re nice and sloshed before you go!

1. Montreal Bachelor Party won’t work without a midnight snack
The highlight of your bachelor party might be the strippers, the night club, the pub crawl… but it also might be… the poutine you eat at 3 am with your new friends! Post-bar food is always the best: you’ve had an amazing night, met some new people, burnt a million calories… and need to refuel. There are a few spots that stay open late and are happy to serve you.
- La Banquise offers more varieties of poutine than you thought possible, and is open 24h a day.
- Lebanese spot Boustan, famous for their “creation” sandwich, is open until 4am, and is so popular that it has a Wikipedia page.
- And, just in case you want a fancy French meal at 1am, L’express on St-Denis is at your service.
