Lovebird

Lovebird is a cocktail bar and music salon set within the stone vaults beneath Hotel Nelligan in Old Montreal, opened in spring 2026 by Corner Collection, the Antonopoulos family's hospitality group, and designed by Atelier Zébulon Perron. The space runs on a focused cocktail program, rooted in classic foundations and built around seasonal ingredients and house-made infusions, alongside curated live music from 8 p.m. nightly, spanning jazz, soul, and acoustic performances. Three sets play each evening, led primarily by local artists. A performance fee applies per guest once the music begins: $20 Wednesday and Thursday, $25 Friday and Saturday. The food menu leans into small bites, from smoked oysters and lobster rolls to beef tartare and a Siberian caviar service. The wine list runs to Champagne from Veuve Clicquot, Ruinart, and Dom Pérignon, while the spirits menu puts a notable emphasis on Quebec producers, including Cirka, St-Laurent, Sortilège, and Menaud.
