Don't Shit Yourself at Bifteck
Don't be fooled by those that frequent Mad Hatters, this is the best dive in town.
$20 will get you a pitcher of Boreal Blance and 5 shots of five star, Canadian whiskey.
Drop your shot in your beer and slam it back, you have just done a Bif Bomb, my friend...welcome to the club.

Good place to go with a group of people and split too many pitchers and eat free popcorn. Also a good place to end the night..

We opened this awesome little dive on a walking tour of the Mont Royal / Plateau neighborhoods. The bartender was great and took a few pictures of us enjoying some beers and people watching. We got a pitcher for $8? This place looks like it could be a lot of fun at night. Free WiFi makes checking in on Yelp not a problem, just get the wifi code from the bartender.

From what I remember of this place (which, admittedly, isn't much--it was my last stop for a night of booze cruising around the city), it was good. We were a large group and couldn't find space elsewhere, so we headed to this place and arrived right when they were opening the upstairs. Because of that, we all got to sit and were quickly enjoying a pitcher and popcorn. Some ill-advised person also decided we needed shots and got a tray of those, but beyond drinking too much and all feeling miserable in the morning, it was a good time. The booze was pretty cheap by Montreal standards (as someone has already said) and there was a lot of room so it didn't feel like a sardine can in there despite the fact that the second floor quickly filled up.

Cheap drinks (Montreal standards), good tunes, plenty of sitting room and awesome laid back "dive bar" environment that I miss so much from L.A!
Pool, Foozball, free popcorn, pitcher specials! Only negative: CASH ONLY!
Oh, and everyone speaks English there which can be nice for some. -

Great bar. Went there two times over the span of six days because there was not much to do in Montreal on labor day weekend.
First was on a Sunday before labor day Monday, drank pitchers and hung at the bar as the college kids rolled into it (which was fine, people were all normal). Then again on a Wednesday around 5pm. Chilled with the bartender and laughed with and at the locals that came in for a while. Good times around.
Pitchers were $10 each which where what we only drank. A good deal if you ask me.
Will definitely becoming back here next time I'm in Montreal. -

Cozy, dirty, cheap, fun. Pretty much all my bar-needs are filled at Biftek. Very mixed crowd, weirdos are usually there earlier in the day, and by night fall the bar is filled with dischevelled hipsters, college students and sports fans. Two stories, lots of tables, pool tables, etc. The drinks are cheap, but the pitchers of beer are on the smaller size for the price.
Fun sometimes. -

Bifteck was a rather interesting place. It definitely was the bar with the best drink specials that we found and the barmaid knew what she was doing unlike elsewhere.
The crowd was mixed with some younger people sitting outside and a few older folk sitting toward the back near the pool tables. One, named Tito (see photo), a regular, lost four times to me in pool, but thats beside the point.
Seems small if you're downstairs but apparently there is also an upstairs with a second bar (not sure about this). Tables in the back as well and free popcorn.
Closest Metro station is Sherbrooke, but the walk up and down Sainte Laurent isn't bad anyway. -

This place is the epitome of diamond in the rough. Back in my underage days, a few girlfriends and myself ventured to our friendly neighbor to the north for spring break (we couldn't afford sun) and made it to the city of Montreal. We met a local on the Metro and he gave us the suggestion to hit Bifteck.
I can safely say, we had one of the most fun nights of all time. This bar was amazing for making new friends, Molson Export flowed like water, and the drink specials were unreal. I'm not sure how they are now, but screw it, they have free popcorn and plenty of TV's. They had these 5 for $5 shot specials going on with risque names for the shots, which only got funnier the more you drank them.
Also, to all the womenfolk, this bar for some reason attracts the best looking men. This bar was SO much fun, that the next night we went out dancing, and all we wanted to do was go back to Bifteck for more drink specials, friendly great looking people and awesome bartenders. This is a bar that I will never forget and fully intend to revisit each time I travel back to Quebec. -

A cool place to split

Boréale, with friends. -

Definitely seemed like a landmark bar for local McGill/Concordia students... small little tables packed with students drinking their body weight in beer.
Great screens for hockey watching, think there may have been a pool table in the back of the bar.
I can just picture this place being fantastic with snow storms outside- very cozy/collegiate atmosphere. -

If I ever elected to become a drunkard I'd move to Bifteck, because it would be the ideal place to achieve my goal.
It is one of the closest you get in Montreal to a dive bar. The pitcher deals are awesome, the waitresses take no crap from anyone (a much needed skill) and the hard liquor specials ensure fun nights for out-of-towners who flock to Quebec for its lax drinking age enforcement.
Try to hit the pool tables before you are drunk off your rocker, as I might be waiting for one. When you want to hole yourself up for at least 3 or 4 rounds, go upstairs whenever you can. It's a little quieter than downstairs and there's more seating.
My recommendation, as always, is to drink Boreale only in case of dire ethanol deficiency and having exhausted all other means of solving said problem. When doing so, pick the Rousse first, and drink the Blonde only if you think Budweiser is passable.
If you can get any pitcher other than Molson Ex or Boreale, go for it! -

Cheap beer. Good people. Pool tables in the back and plenty of TVs. Everything you'd expect from a good dive bar. Oh, and there's free wireless.

#1 to review, #1 in our hearts!
so again my international travelers, we have ourselves a hidden gem. ok, to be honest, this is not a hidden gem, but it is a gem. what can i say, if you are up in this area and like to be around (and are you sicko) 18-28 or so, this is your kind of bar. on the cheap side, free popcorn, right in the thick of RSL, action, college kids (mcgill) all that and a bag of poutine!
i believe this bar has also been featured on a bunch of 'bar' completion/clip shows, like best of and up all night and the likes. i cant blame them, its a fun time without the expectation of a bar-brawl (piels pub, im looking at you!) with enough hockey to watch and beer to imbibe.Listed in: when in rome

The Canadian term for hipsters is dorks. This is where you'll find them.

For the amount of diversity of bars out there too much time is spent at bifteck. It's the place everyone ends up at and after a while everyone continues ending up at , wishing they had spend time somewhere new. Variety is the spice of life! Try bifteck but try other pubs nearby too!
