This establishment maintains a commitment to the fundamental principles of British pub culture by emphasizing quality ingredients and substantial portions. Every element of the service aligns with the traditions of a standard public house.

Review Summary

Burgundy Lion is widely celebrated as a staple of the Montreal community, offering an authentic British pub experience characterized by its warm atmosphere, extensive whisky collection, and consistently popular dishes like fish and chips, bangers and mash, and high tea. Visitors frequently praise the vibrant, cozy decor and the staff's dedication to hosting lively sporting events and private functions. While many guests describe the service as exceptional and friendly, some experiences have been marred by inconsistencies in food quality, noise levels, or service attentiveness during peak hours. Despite these occasional drawbacks, the establishment remains a go-to destination for locals and tourists alike, appreciated for its welcoming spirit and its ability to function as both a casual neighborhood hangout and a reliable venue for memorable group celebrations.

There is a reason why The Lion is shoulder to shoulder during sporting events. Even threw the quiet times i,d much rather travel out of my way to enjoy a'Couple' of Guinness & a meal.God help my bank account if I rent an apartment near by!(lol)

First time to burgundy lion, we had great service, the waitress was very nice & very helpful. The drinks & food came quickly.

However…… the food was so salty (we had fish & chips, curry & the burger ) & the curry was inedible , the salt overpowered everything. The fish & chips portions were so small they should rename it to fish sticks & chips. The fish had half decent flavour but for the price we should have definitely gotten another piece as it is not given away. The portion of fries was very small as well.

I went here after many years for a first date; the place was packed, we just ordered two drinks, no food because we had a lot to talk about & the staff let us be, very charming no pressure to order food at all, Non alcoholic Guinness was great.
