Benelux has been a favourite microbrewery for me for over fifteen years. They're conveniently close to McGill. They have a nice warm ambiance and the music isn't too loud—it does not at all interfere with conversation. Best of all, their beers are delicious. I think they made me start to enjoy beer really. Their snacks are pricey but tasty. If you're a fan of olives, try those! Their hotdogs are popular—large with a crunchy bun. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Great place to meet a friend or colleague, and an ideal choice for a first date.
Spent 4 days in Montreal recently and this pub local to our AirBNB was my Wife & I favorite spot, great music, not too loud, great atmosphere and clientel, drinks were fantastic including the variety of micro brews and cocktails, very friendly and helpful staff. Next time we visit Montreal this place will be our first place to visit again.
One of the superior brewpubs in Montreal and the best one in the west end. Terrific enlarged beer garden on corner of Sherbrooke St. and Jeanne-Mance. The American Brown paired nicely with my Rueben Sandwich plate. I first asked for the Weizenbock but the server said that the keg had just been changed and he felt that it was not up to standard. Without my asking, he brought me a taster of it and I thought it was fine. But they are sticklers for quality here. Over the years, the beer quality and range has just better and better. I took a can of Saison to go to watch a soccer game. Also, top quality. This is a required stop for any brewpub traveler and I make sure I am on its terrace every month during our fine summer season.
Very nice beers, locally made, very nice staff, the seating area is chill and central in Montreal!
So nice to have such a good spot close by!
Great place for beer lovers. They have the weekly specials.
Only thing is for parking if you go before 9 it’s only pay parking on SHERBROOKE.
It’s a classic in the city for local beers.
They have WiFi so good one for tourists.
Nice place to chill open till 3 am. Good beer but prices could be lower for other drinks than beer. Amazing service. Reduced 1 star for prices but if u live close by it's a really good place to go.
Benelux is one of my go to bar in Montreal. The beer is good quality and the staff is very educated on explaining each beer and their ingredients.
The one which I'll recommend to try is Lux Blonde (white beer) and Placebo (Lager). Both of them taste good and have a good alcohol ratio too.
A must place to add to your "places to go" if you're visiting Montréal.
Stopped in to Benelux on a Saturday afternoon with friends for one beer. For an hour or so we had the entire place to ourselves. It is typical Montreal brewpub with a great selection of decent beers, and one fantastic hot dog.
After consuming 3 beers, a bachelor party showed up and calamity ensued. After another two beers there was some inappropriate ass grabbing from a few of the bachelor party participants and our party unfortunately had to leave. But not before having one more beer. Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm can't wait to get back to Benelux this Summer. Man we couldn't even figure out how Uber worked when we left this place...good times.
This is a cool historical building with a story to be heard. Ask the server or manager to give you the breakdown of where they came from. The micro brewed IPA"s are awesome. I believe you'll enjoy the journey.
Have been here a few times with always a great experience to be had!
