Travel Back In Time, Where Every Bite Has a Story

Located in the Ville Marie borough in Montreal, Soup Zen Hot Pot is housed in a Victorian structure built in 1889. This building has undergone several changes over its 150-year history and has played a significant role in downtown Montreal's development. Originally owned by Charles Phillips, it served as a luxurious private residence with an intricate Victorian architectural style and hosted high-society events during the 18th and 19th centuries.   

The building is located at 1238 Bishop Street, close to Bishop Street south of Sainte-Catherine Street West in the Central sector of the city. After World War II, local entrepreneurs purchased the building to restore its former glory. However, everything changed at 5:20 a.m. on March 24, 2018. A fire broke out in an upper-floor unit in the southern neighborhood above the Irish Embassy pub, causing significant damage and leaving all three buildings vacant since that day.

  Today, the building has been renovated and reappeared six years after the fire. This nearly 150-year-old building remains a beloved landmark in Montreal, making Soup Zen Hot Pot a living testament to the downtown development and the historical city's ongoing evolution. It symbolizes resilience and renewal, having weathered the changes of time and representing the city' s ability to honor its past while embracing the future.   

The building retains its original gray stone facade, adorned with intricate carvings and decorative elements typical of Victorian architecture. Many original features have been preserved, including the grand staircase, hardwood floors, and stained glass windows.   

Recent renovations have included the installation of modern amenities such as central heating and updated plumbing while maintaining the building s historical integrity.
