Owner and Bartender

A small bar,
not an event.

Simon opened Le Rossignol in 2018 in a former shoe repair shop on rue Saint-Jean, wanting a place small enough to know everyone's name.

Owner and bartender

Simon Cauchon

Fifteen years behind bars on Grande Allée and Petit-Champlain, then the itch for somewhere smaller where he'd know the names. Simon opened Le Rossignol in 2018 in a former shoe shop, keeping the original floor and the oak counter he sanded himself.

His rule: no smoke, no sparkle, no flying shakers. A well-balanced cocktail, served fast, and music low enough to talk over. He makes his syrups on Sundays and his tonic on Mondays.

House syrups Québec products Open since 2018

House rules

Four rules, kept since 2018

01 No smoke No dry ice clouds, no flaming glasses. A cocktail is meant to be tasted, not filmed.
02 No glitter Simple glassware, garnishes that serve a purpose and well-balanced recipes.
03 Served fast Twenty-eight seats, one counter: you won't wait twenty minutes for a drink.
04 Music low enough You should be able to hear each other talk. Even on vinyl nights, even on live music nights.
