This Montreal restaurant has a new 5 à 7 with cocktails, Mediterranean bites and live music

The summer season is already heating up and things are about to sizzle even more thanks to brand new 5 à 7 in Montreal.

Améa Café has officially launched its very own social CINQ@SEPT, which will take place the first Wednesday of every month (with the possibility of it becoming a bi-monthly event).

Located in the iconic Maison Alcan on rue Sherbrooke, Améa transforms its stunning open space into a bohemian escape with live music, fresh cocktails and mocktails, and a Mediterranean menu to choose from.

For those looking for a refreshing drink, Alejandra (the lovely Améa bartender) can craft a mocktail that can only be best described as summer in a glass. Made up of lemon juice, orange syrup, and ginger ale — this beverage won't disappoint.

The food menu includes fried halloumi and caponata, spiced lamb sliders with pickled eggplant and mint labneh, French fries with feta and garlic aioli, as well as the hummus bowl topped with roasted chicken, turnips, chickpeas and pita.

Améa's CINQ@SEPT also offers a variety of live music. During its Grand Prix 5 à 7, guests were able to enjoy the sounds of DJ Laura Scavo, who set the vibe just right.

The best part? Entry is completely free. So you and your friends, work pals or date can enjoy a lively event without breaking the bank.

Make your calendars, 'cause the next CINQ@SEPT at Améa Café is taking place July 3.

See you there, Montreal.
