Throwing a Bachelor Party in Montreal
As any groom-to-be can attest, bachelor parties are great ways to cut loose, get wild with your friends, and enjoy the type of night (or weekend) that is much less likely to occur after your tie to the knot. For those living in the Montreal area, you’re in luck; the city is the indisputable go-to destination for unforgettable bachelor parties. With its legendary clubs, gorgeous women, and appetite for debauchery, this city surely won’t disappoint your buddies.
Choose your naughty level
Level 1 – Not so Naughty
Travelling to Montreal
Montreal is in the perfect position to welcome partiers from most places. Have a look – we might not be as far away as you think!
Toronto, New York, New Jersey, Boston, and Philadelphia are all under a two-hour flight away meanwhile Ottawa and Quebec City are less than a three-hour drive. Compare that to other party destinations like Las Vegas and Cancun, and things just got a whole lot easier.
Staying In Montreal for your Bachelor Party
There are hundreds of hotels to choose from in Montreal that can meet any budget. If your boys don’t mind dropping some serious coin, consider staying at the St. James Hotel in Old Montreal. If you’re looking for something a little closer to the parties, stay at Hotel 10 in the Plateau Mont-Royal. If your boys are more likely to enjoy a smart yet relaxed vibe, try the Hotel Place d’Armes.
Food
Every party needs to start (and end) with a hearty meal, which you’re pretty much ensured to have in Montreal. Before the celebrations begin, you have to try the city’s infamous smoked meat sandwiches. Our go-to options? Definitely Shwartz’s. Name-drop this baby anywhere in the world and you’ll see eyes turning and mouths watering.
When the clock strikes 3 a.m., that’s your cue to discover Montreal’s best 24H restaurants (trust us, you’ll need the food). Poutine is the way to go and La Banquise on Rachel will never disappoint.
2. A little naughty
Drinking & Partying
There is a time and a place for being sober. A naughty bachelor party is neither that time nor that place. But whether you’re renting a party bus or raising the roof of your groom’s favourite bar, be sure to take the time to plan ahead for a bunch of drunk men, so that you can relax and have a great time during the extravaganza.

Don’t be afraid to mingle with the locals – they’ll want to show you a good time.
Smoking Cannabis in Montreal
For a different type of naughty, consider a hefty dose of legalized recreational marijuana. As there is still a great deal of taboo surrounding marijuana (Canada is one of the very few countries where recreational use is legal).
3. Moderately naughty
Sexy Scavenger Hunt
No naughty bachelor party is complete without a sexy scavenger hunt! Whereas the typical scavenger hunt might have you taking photos with random people doing random things, a sexy hunt kicks things up a notch. Split into teams and divide the tasks among teammates. These tasks could include:
- Ordering a drink named after a sex act at the bar.
- Doing body shots with a stranger.
- Using a cheesy pickup line on someone (bonus points if you get their digits!).
- Collecting an item of clothing from a random person.
Pics or it didn’t happen!
4. Now we’re talking Naughty
Bachelor Party Strip clubs
No surprises here; hiring an exotic dancer has become a bachelor party staple. While strip clubs have gradually earned a reputation for being dingy, depressing joints, hiring dancers to come to a private venue always adds a much-welcome dose of naughtiness to the bachelor party proceedings.
Erotic Massage
One person’s wild is another person’s mild, and that’s particularly true when it comes to erotic massages. And yet, these massages have become increasingly popular among bachelor party crowds. So, spoil your boys and enjoy a tantalizing massage from the most attractive hostesses in Montreal at Le Penthouse! A five-start gentleman’s parlour, Le Penthouse is a party destination that will make your bachelor celebration one that your buddies won’t soon forget!
