About Renard

Renard is an inclusive cocktail bar directly opposite Beaudry station in Montréal’s Village. The main room serves carefully made cocktails, spirits, beer and casual food in a lively but approachable setting, with a terrace in warm weather. Its attached Motel Motel room becomes a compact, DJ-led late-night space. Happy hour makes Renard useful early in the evening, while the annex and extended weekend hours carry the night later.

What to expect

Cocktails and casual food in the main bar, then louder DJ energy in the intimate Motel Motel annex.

I had the absolute pleasure of rolling across this place on a trip a few weeks ago. Not only were the drinks and snacks fantastic but the accessibility was top notch. We had a wonderful afternoon!

The terrace is spacious and very comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax. The staff is wonderful, attentive, and always ready to help whenever you need anything. The sharing plates are generous and pair perfectly with a drink. A special mention for the Spritz cocktails, which are excellent. A great spot that I highly recommend!

UPDATE BELOW Honestly TRASH service. There were two people behind the bar, one appeared to be training, yet no one offered water or even acknowledged me properly. I ordered a drink, and as soon as it was served, they immediately cashed me out, which made me feel like they didn’t want me there or assumed I wasn’t going to pay. Is that normal? This happened Friday July 24 @5pm I’ve never felt so unwelcome at a bar before. The overall experience felt dismissive and uninviting. I wouldn’t recommend coming here if you expect friendly or attentive service. UPDATE: I know what cash and carry is. Your response completely missed the point. The issue wasn’t your business model—it was the dismissive service and the assumption that I wasn’t staying. Had anyone simply asked whether I wanted to keep my tab open, I would have stayed for more drinks and tipped generously. Instead, assumptions were made. Thanks for confirming customer feedback isn’t taken seriously 👍

I really love the atmosphere here. The staff is very kind and cocktails are delicious. Also vibe music terrace is awesome. Everyone does their own thing it’s awesome. It’s one of my faves now and I think I’ll come back when I’m craving a cocktail in the summer :)
