Le Lion de Bourgogne n'est pas un pub « traditionnel » selon les standards montréalais, ni britanniques. Nous cherchons à présenter un produit supérieur aux autres pubs établis, côté nourriture, service, et ambiance. Le Lion de Bourgogne offre une sélection impressionnante de whiskeys et de bières, ainsi qu'une carte de vins et de cocktails modernes.
Les avis convergent sur une ambiance pub britannique chaleureuse et authentique au coeur de Montréal, avec une carte qui mêle classiques britanniques revisités et plats réconfortants comme fish and chips, Scotch egg, pâté en croûte, le tout accompagné d'une riche sélection de bières et de whiskies. Le service est majoritairement apprécié pour son accueil chaleureux et son professionnalisme, parfois réhaussé par l'effervescence des soirs où la musique peut être trop forte et les temps d'attente plus longs. La carte et les portions font l'unanimité, avec des mentions élogieuses pour des plats comme le fish and chips et les pies, tandis que certains trouvent que certains plats végétariens ou du quotidien manquent de saveur ou de chaleur. Les événements privés ou les soirées quiz et matches de sport créent une ambiance conviviale et renforcent le sentiment de communauté; d'autres retours pointent des espaces bruyants et un service qui peut se laisser dépasser. Dans l'ensemble, Burgundy Lion est perçu comme une référence montréalaise pour une expérience pub anglaise authentique, avec une offre variée de nourriture et de boissons et un esprit chaleureux autour des rencontres et du sport.
Une belle découverte. Tout était parfait. Comme dans un vrai pub anglais. Service chaleureux & professionnel. Une bonne bouffe. Je recommande chaleureusement.
À chaque fois que je vais au Pub Burgundy Lion, je prends les Fish & Chips & le Sticky Toffee Pudding. C'est une tradition que je partage avec ma soeur aînée. Impossible d'essayer un autre mets. Burgundy Lion, ne changez pas les recettes! On adore!

The best fish & chips this side of the Atlantic!
This English-style pub nails it. The fish was golden, crispy, & flaky on the inside-absolutely perfect. The chips were thick-cut & perfectly seasoned, & the house tartare sauce took it all to the next level.
The beer selection is just as impressive: plenty of local brews & classic English pints on tap, poured just right. The pub has that cozy, authentic feel-dim lighting, dark wood, & the hum of good conversation.
If you're craving proper fish & chips with a cold pint in hand, this is the place. Can't wait to go back!
The food was great, & the service was amazing.
The only thing that ruined my time was that there was another guest who thought that the public space was her own personal place. She had the nerve to bother other patrons who were sitting down, asking them if they were done. Then, once she did get a place to see othside on the terrace, she decided that she needed to remove her shoes & actually take a chair from another table to put her feet up. It really ruined the whole experience of being there.
Pub très fréquenté du quartier. Accueil courtois. Tout comme le service. Il faut vous attendre à une salle à manger très bruyante. Bel ambiance. J'ai trouvé le choix de bières limité pour un pub. Pour ce qui est de la nourriture, nous avons vécu une expérience en 2 temps. Le poulet était bien apprêté, alors que la boulette du burger était brûlé. Probablement oublié sur le grill. Un restaurant ne devrait pas servir ce type de nourriture.
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!
Food was just OK, although special mention on the fries which were very good. Place is super loud - very difficult to have any sort of conversation - louder than a typical pub style restaurant.
Great food at a reasonable price. Excellent service despite it being very busy that night. Cheery atmosphere, just like a pub should have. Will be back
Summary: Awesome, Trivia Night is so worth it, & order the Lancashire Hot Pot if you LIKE bland English cuisine.
Gorgeous pub! It's 3 floors high & the ambiance is very nice. We went for Trivia Night Monday & our host was Sarah- super charismatic & overall challenging & fun questions! Our waitress was also very sweet & she tried to be as timely despite being a busy night. Food came quick after ordering.
My friends (x3) & I ordered: Gnocchi, Burger, Fish N' Chips, & the Hot Pot.
The gnocchi & burger were reported to be very delicious. The fish n' chips were kinda small for the price.
My hot pot… was Very Bland. Granted, I'm not English or White. But I encouraged my White friends (who happen to be of English descent) to try a few bites. Even they were saying it was bland- that's with me adding boatloads of salt & pepper too. The salad that comes with it is also some basic Italian (North American style) dressing & it's… just so meh for $32. Oh well!
We had a great time :) Will be returning to try other dishes & down a pint of Murphy's.
I LOVE this place. Such a classic cozy'calm night' that can always turn rowdy. Always a great crowd & service. Very classic English pub, menu & taps included. I always get the Fish & Chips, this time geared toward the Leek & Chicken pie. YUM!! Wish I got the classic greasy fries though, but the mash was ok. Spaghetti was also unreal. Breakfast is always 10/10 too
Go to place to watch the English Premier League. Great vibe, cheap pints, & good crowd. Aside from soccer the pub is also just a nice place to enjoy a beer.

The drink selection here is fantastic! I loved the variety of beers & enjoyed the chill jazz music, which paired surprisingly well with the classic English pub interior. The ambience was unique & definitely a highlight of the visit. However, the food & service didn't meet my expectations. The burger was served cold, we had to ask spicy sauce just to add some flavour to meal. With some slight improvement in service this place definitely will become a #1 pub interior Montréal.
I apologize for this long write-up, but unfortunately I have to write a negative review for an establishment that's been at the top of it's game, but has been going steadily downhill :/ I live & work in the neighbourhood & have been going to the pub since it opened; my colleagues & I normally go there for lunch once in a while as well. On my last visit, I went for brunch on a Sunday late morning, with a friend. We reserved in advance. 1) Once seated we were pretty much forgotten by the waitress & had to literally run after her to get served. 2) The pub was showing a game on the TVs (which is great), but there was a group of people on the 2nd floor that were so loud that my friend & I couldnt hear ourselves talk, despite seating inches appart in front of each other & our table was diagonally at the opposite end of the pub where the soccer fans were sitting - other customers (many elderly people) were clearly disturbed by this racket as well - the folks upstairs were literally acting as if they were in a stadium - louder than loud. That being said, when the waitress brought us our food, I asked her if there was some special event going on & pointed out the inconvenience of the excessive noise.. as an answer, I got (with an unwelcoming tone/attitude).. & I quote.. ".. this is how it is here.. this is the pub experience.. you should expect this kind of atmosphere when coming here"; not even a "sorry for the inconvenience".. almost as if to say "you don't like it you can leave" - This was ON A SUNDAY MORNING For the record, I also visit their sister pub, Wolf & Workman, & there is never such atmosphere there; the staff is very warm & welcoming & even if busy, there is never a racket, at least not a ridiculous one like this time at the Lion 3) Last but not least, while the food is quite good, the presentation & portion size of some dishes is totally not worth the money; I ordered eggs benedict with salmon; while the price was within the norm ($24), all I got was a few very tiny slivers of salmon & barely a tablespoon of hollandaise (on english muffin with eggs, of course) & a little bunch of potatoes; no fruit, no effort in presentation, nothing.. it looked like it was just slapped together in a hurry.. This place is becoming less & less desirable & makes us feel less welcome. Once again, my apologies for this long review.. & thanks for having taken the time to read it.
