New | The aPero Buvette: office during the day, refreshment bar in the evening

Rue Ontario Est quickly acquired a small neighborhood refreshment bar and a design office. The particularity: the two are located in the same room!


The aPero Buvette is the project of Tania Perreault and Melisande Lefebvre, partners in business and in life. Tania Perreault was inspired by her family name and her passion for aperitifs to create this new identity, after the three partners of the Lovasi firm (of which she was a member) each took different paths.

The premises, formerly that of Arte & Farina, serve as his office during the day — under Pero Studio — and are transformed into a wine bar on Thursday and Friday evenings.

  • Much of the furniture, including the bar and wine rack, was inventively made by the owners themselves.  The merino wool lamps are the work of Atelier J. Le Fabre.

It serves a range of wines carefully selected by Melisande, accompanied by platters of cold meats and cheeses in a 5 to 7 formula, all in a warm environment created from scratch by the owners, from the bar to the banquettes through the furniture where are exposed the bottles, consisting of mesh for pouring concrete.

Psst: if you have a crush on a vase or a plate, know that most of the objects found in the decor are also for sale.
