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.

Our group of 10 were celebrating the birthday & life of a good friend who had passed away a couple of months ago. We had a private alcove room on the main floor that totally suited our needs. Staff service was excellent & food was delicious. Would definitely consider Burgundy Lion for future event bookings.
Thank you Nancy for exceeding expectations!

Hosted a 40th birthday party in the tea room. Beautiful atmosphere. Service was very friendly & helpful, & even very patient with the children. Service was a little bit slow but over all very happy with the event!

It was my first day in Montreal & I was exhausted & hungry at the end of the day. The staff were so welcoming & the Burgundy Lion ale beer & Croquet Madame were so comforting to me. I liked the ambience & the music too. Thank you!

I organized a group dinner for about 25 people & Nancy was fantastic to work with, from coordinating the menu to flexibility on last minute numbers. Food was yummy & servers were great. It got a bit noisy as the evening wore on but that was to be expected when the Stanley cup finals are on.

We had Bangers & Mash, Scotch Egg & Chicken Tikka Masala. BL is my go-to pub & I think that was the best Bangers & Mash I've ever had. In fact I'm still thinking about it!

Went for trivia & the host hated our team name but gave us sour patch kids so that made up for it. Good mushy peas perfectly mushed the way they do it in England innit! Wish I took a clipping from the plant wall because they were getting quite overgrown but maybe it's morally better that I didn't
