Montreal, Québec
Village sports tavern and karaoke bar on Rue Atateken since 1981.
Le Normandie is an old-school gay tavern and karaoke bar on Rue Atateken (the former Amherst), open in the Village since 1981 and one of the neighborhood's enduring fixtures. The interior is classic tavern, vaulted ceiling and a long, well-stocked bar, while the real signature is out front: two of the busiest summer patios in the Village, with seating that spills toward the street on warm nights. Karaoke runs most evenings to a loud, generous crowd, and during hockey season the bar hands out free shots whenever the local team scores. The room is unpretentious and the drinks are cheap, which keeps a steady mix of longtime regulars and visitors fresh off a nearby stage. A kitchen turns out burgers and seasonal plates, though hours vary. For a traveler it's the antidote to the polished clubs down the strip, a place to settle in on the terrace and let a Montreal summer evening run long.
