B Side

Montreal | $$ | Map | Website

Good music, unpretentious bar staff and reasonable prices are all highlights of this St. Laurent stalwart, only a few years old but already a favorite with the early twenties to thirty scene. B-Side is one of those places that, even if it’s not the newest or trendiest club on the scene, you can always fall back on it. Dance if you want or don’t, dress up swanky or not, Grey Goose-it or grab a beer, no biggie either way – everyone’s here for the tunes anyways, which famously tip their hat to 90s high school favorites and old rock and roll classics.

On the downside, the club is carved from a small hallway-style space, so B-Side can get pretty crowded and the coat check/bathroom areas downstairs frustratingly shoulder-to-shoulder. If you can put up with it – or better yet, take good advantage of the club’s summertime vibe and terrace – friendly B-Side is a great bet, any time.

B-Side and Moonshines

Well B-side is a favorite for many of my friends and has always been the first stop on my way down St Laurent. Its a small bar with great bouncers and bartenders. Not to mention that its free pour which makes the drinks a lot better than any other place on St Laurent. One thing people have to remember is that Free pour means more Booze! We all know that more booze is the way to g1o not matter who you are and what you like to do. At least from my experience it seems to be!
Hit this place up say Hi to Jeffy and enjoy the terrace located on the 2nd floor!

Never seems to fail

I use to never be a fan of B-Side but I guess it just grew on me. When you can’t figure out where you want to party, B-Side is a safe choice with tunes ranging from 70’s rock, 80’s Pop and some good ol’ dance tunes! The club can get crowded fast because it’s very narrow and it gets annoying trying to shimmy your way through to either go to the bathroom or upstairs to the second bar. Not much of a dance floor though, but then again you don’t need to be on the dance floor in order to bust out some moves!

The bartenders are hot (women) and so are most people who party there. It’s a bit of an older crowd, mid-20’s to early 30’s, which is a nice change from other clubs close-by.

Great Music!

If you’re tired of the music playing in ordinary clubs and lounges or just consider yourself a music buff then this place is for you. With an original mix of old and new, B side is a great spot to chill out and enjoy good music or get up and dance. What I found awesome about the atmosphere of this place is that no matter if you plan on dressing up or down you’ll fit in. It makes for a great first stop of the night yet I’ve had so much fun there some nights that I have on occasion changed my plans just to stay.
