Tally’s Take

Known for highly sophisticated, food-friendly beers and an extensive foeder-aged sour program in the heart of Montreal.

Ownership & corporate history

  1. Owned by Marie-Pier Veilleux2014 – December 2025

    Partly settledCurrent evidence supports this, but the record is not fully resolved.

    What the sources say

    Veilleux is documented as owner/co-founder and personally announced the closure; The Main reports last service December 22, 2025.

  2. Owned by Cynthia Santamaria2014

    Partly settledCurrent evidence supports this, but the record is not fully resolved.

    What the sources say

    2022 source explicitly identifies Santamaria as shareholder/co-owner; current closed-place profile still calls Veilleux and Santamaria co-founders, but exact equity at closure was not independently established.

Ownership history is kept as dated events, so a change of owner never overwrites the one before it.
