Nestor

Bar Nestor has been many things over the past seven years, but above all, it’s the neighbourhood pub of Plaza St-Hubert. Run by longtime friends and collaborators Benjamin Desautels and Raphaël Léger (also behind Chez Baptiste), Nestor pulls off a rare balance: a casual, drop-in-for-a-pint vibe downstairs, and a second floor built for private events and late-night chaos when needed. The crew behind the bar has been steady since the beginning—friendly, hands-on, and quick with a pour or a playlist. There are over 20 taps of microbrews, 22 Québec gins, and a cocktail list that surprises without showing off. Open 7 days a week, it’s the kind of place where locals come to stay and first-timers feel like regulars. Game for a Tuesday whiskey sour? Maybe a packed Friday party upstairs? Nestor holds its ground as a no-nonsense, all-welcome anchor of the block for every occasion.
