For the fourth installment in the Montreal Nightlife video series, I visited Baldwin Barmacie, a sleek and sophisticated bar/nightclub/lounge on Laurier, near Avenue du Parc. I spoke to Baldwin’s Alex Baldwin about designing a place reminiscent of his own living room…

Baldwin Barmacie is a great spot in the Mile End neighbourhood of Montreal that manages to feel like a cross between a pharmacy and bar (hence the name “barmacie”)…if it was located smack dap in the middle of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. It’s a perfect place for an after-work drink during the week or as part of a big night out on the town. While the décor is one of its obvious selling points, it’s a place that takes the business of making drinks very seriously. Their mojitos with champagne are pretty legendary, but I strongly suggest you try their Bourbon Punch, the perfect refreshment for a warm summer night…
