Stylish Cocktails & Vibes in Little Burgundy

Salon Badin is a cool, contemporary cocktail bar located in Montréal’s trendy Little Burgundy neighborhood. Known for its elegant interior, inventive drinks, and welcoming energy, this spot is a favorite for those looking to sip something special before heading out to a show. With vintage-chic décor, moody lighting, and a laid-back crowd, it’s the kind of place where you can relax without losing the buzz of the night ahead.

Why Concert-goers love it

Salon Badin is just a short ride or walk from several of Montréal’s top concert venues, making it an ideal spot to start your evening. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between energetic and intimate, so you can enjoy conversation without shouting over loud music. Service is quick and attentive, and while it's primarily a cocktail bar, there are light bites and shareable plates that make for a satisfying pre-show snack.

Who this Restaurant is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a fun pre-show hangout

• Fans who want a lively but not overwhelming pre-show space
• Budget-conscious music lovers who still want quality cocktails and ambiance

What People Say

Reviewers rave about the creative, well-balanced cocktails and the stylish yet cozy interior. Many mention the friendly bartenders and the curated playlist that keeps the vibe just right. Guests appreciate the unpretentious feel despite the upscale look, and several note that it’s a great find for a chill night out before a show.

Areas for Improvement

Salon Badin doesn’t offer a full dinner menu, which might be a downside for those looking for a hearty meal before a concert. Seating can fill up quickly on weekends, so arriving early is recommended if you want a good spot.

If you’re after craft cocktails, cool ambiance, and a laid-back pre-concert vibe, Salon Badin delivers in all the right ways.
