text: AtmospherennStogies is a Montreal bar located downtown Montreal on Crescent street center of all the action in Montreal during the summer It is one of the very few cigar lounges that Montreal still has but they sure have one hell of a collection In my personal opinion when you go to Stogies you go on the second floor considering it is where the cigars are available and where the ambiance is at its coolest It does not have the most spacious nor the most luxurious environment however the atmosphere is pretty relaxing on the balconies Also if you stay inside the smoke of all those cigars will soon give you a pretty intense headache Unfortunately if you do go outside do not go with a big group because the balconies are very small and it can soon become annoyingly crowded The view you get on the street of Crescent is pretty good and it is an amazing location during events such as the Grand Prix because you get to see everything that is going on In general the atmosphere of Stogies is worth starsnnDrinks FoodnnWhen it comes to drinks Stogies has a wide variety of martinis to be exact and of single malts around Do not be worried if those drinks are not quite in your liking because they do serve all kinds of drinks from Champagne to beer they have pretty much everything I have tried a couple of martinis and I have to say that the one I prefer is definitely the litchi martini The prices are relatively expensive but they make up for it in the amount of alcohol they put in each serving Unfortunately they do not serve food so you might want to go eat diner somewhere else first I would like to give Stogies stars for their drinks and cigarsnnServicennThe service provided is kind of slow depending on who you get and on the night you go but they are always very friendly I would like to recommend one of the waitresses that I try to get at each of my visits however I forgot her name If you do spot her though she has an Arabic tattoo on her arm that means forever She is very friendly very fast in her service and she engages in conversations like no other waitress I have met I will give the service of this Montreal bar starsnnLocationnnStogies is perfectly located in the middle of downtown on one of the busiest streets of the summer and right next to the metro Guy Also it has little balconies so you can still bathe in the sun while enjoying a cigar and a pretty view A definite stars for this onennThe total amount of stars I would allocate to Stogies in general would be
