Quiet bars for conversation in Montreal

40 venues, ranked on what OpenStreetMap actually records about each one.

How this page is built. Every venue below is drawn from OpenStreetMap and scored on recorded facts — Someone wants a bar where they can actually hear each other talk. OSM records no noise level, so ranking uses proxies: outdoor seating, absence of live music, smoking policy. Venues that OpenStreetMap knows nothing relevant about are left off rather than padded in, which is why this list is shorter than the total number of bar-type venues in Montreal. Full method.

Frequently asked questions

How many Montreal bars are on this list?

This page ranks the top 40 of 353 bars in Montreal that OpenStreetMap records at least one relevant detail for. Of the 40 shown, 8 have Wi-Fi recorded and 38 publish their opening hours.

Which of these Montreal bars have Wi-Fi?

Of the venues on this page, Chez Ernest - Comptoir de curiosités, Messorem, Chez Baptiste, Bar Bara and MaBrasserie all have Wi-Fi recorded in OpenStreetMap. Wi-Fi is not tagged for every venue, so absence here means "not recorded", not "no Wi-Fi".

Which of these bars stay open late?

Yïsst, Chez Ernest - Comptoir de curiosités, Messorem, Chez Baptiste and Abreuvoir are open until 11pm or later on at least one day of the week, according to the opening hours published in OpenStreetMap.

Which of these bars are step-free?

Yïsst, Chez Ernest - Comptoir de curiosités, Messorem, Chez Baptiste and Abreuvoir are tagged as wheelchair accessible in OpenStreetMap. Accessibility tagging is incomplete, so it is worth confirming with the venue.

How is this list ranked?

Venues are scored on the facts OpenStreetMap records about them - bar rather than a pub floor, outdoor seating - a quieter option, no live music, non-smoking indoors, opening hours published - and ranked by that score. A venue with no relevant detail recorded is left off the list entirely rather than padded in. Nothing on this page is a paid placement.
