Yer'Mad Bistro Bar

This place saved my soul. Booking.com inexplicably canceled our hotel booking (warning! don't use them!), so we headed here to make a plan. The bartender took good care of us, and the friendly clientele at the bar cheered when we found a new room. If I lived in this city, this bar would be my home away from home.

This place isn’t far from my home but for some reason it took me a long time to check it out. And I love it.
Probably the friendliest staff of any bar I’ve ever been to.
It looks dive-y but in the absolute best way. It’s a leftist/ANTIFA bar, so if that’s not your thing you won’t be happy here. Luckily there are enough of us who do care about progressive society and human rights and it’s perfect for us.

A bar. Not a bar themed restaurant.

Nice little bar right in front of Berri station. Great atmoshpere. The beers are good, the nachos are delicious, and it's a great place to meet with friends. Be aware, though: it is a cash-only bar. There is an ATM on site, but the fees attached to it are eye-watering.

Beer and food both are good but little pricey in compared to place atmosphere.

I often bike past this bar but I've never tried it until last night. It's cozy and low lit however however I wasn't happy about the fact they only take cash. Thankfully, the person I was with had cash on him. There's an ATM however you'd probably have to pay a fee. The drinks are pretty cheap so that's a plus.

Was pretty empty on a Monday night, but a welcoming barman and a chilled vibe ensured our last drink in Montreal was a memorable one. Thanks!
NB cash only, but they do have ATM.

while visiting a few weeks ago i walked into Yer Mad cause i heard great things. i ordered a beer and when i got my change back not even 2 seconds went by while i try to put my wallet back together and the bartender in front of a full bar says real loud you have to tip me before you go. everyone started looking at me. i was like of course i’m going to tip you but give me at least a second to sort my stuff out. it was ridiculously unprofessional. i shoulda just said you just lost your tip. and he had such a look of disgust, looking at me up and down. terrible customer service by that bartender.

if anything he should’ve been nice. i’m american so of course i’m going to tip. we tip way more then most countries because we are used to our tipping culture

the look of the bar was cool but the service was the worst i had my whole trip.

While passing through Quebec, I came here with a friend.
A place that doesn't look like much but it turned out to be really great.
Very cute, super adorable waitress!

Cool bar.

If it is not the dive bar par excellence in Montreal, it is certainly one of the most authentic. As soon as you walk through the door, you feel like you're entering a pirate den, skillfully hacked by a bunch of punks. But after a few minutes, we realize that we are in a neighborhood bar, frequented by friendly regulars.

The scotch flows generously, and there is always someone with whom to exchange or share a game of dominoes. It’s the kind of place you instantly adopt, and come back to again and again. Even after 20 years (this is my case).
