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.
Probably my favourite pub in MTL. The food is very good (relative to pubs) - I've had their Shepherd's Pie, Burger, Fish & Chips, & Tikka Masala. So far, my favourite is the Fish & Chips. The Tikka Masala was average, the burger is quite good although inconsistent, & the Shepherd's Pie was tasty. I love their Murphy's Irish stout. It always tastes great & they're generally poured well. One small critique would be bubbles in the head. Otherwise a great pint. I recommend this place to anybody who loves a pub with good food, beer, ambiance, & old-style decore. It doesn't disappoint.

Noisy, crowded, waiters are super busy, food are okay but for example toast on my onion soup was black burnt, with almost no cheese on it. Can not say it was my favorite place but might come back for the atmosphere
We went there with a group, the service was pretty good. The drinks were average, but I guess this is the kind of place where people drink beer. The fish & chips was good. The salmon wellington was also good with the mushrooms & the sauce, it was perfect for that dish.

Before you book a large group know this ... We all ordered meals, appetizers & were heavy on the contrails ... The birthday girl blessed us all with beautiful Gourmet cupcakes..they then charged everyone at the table a 3$ "cutting fee". That's something that should be mentioned upon booking & asking if we can bring birthday dessert!
We had the chance to host our masterclass of whiskys at Burgundy Lion ! It was a huge success, the staff was great, efficient. We had excellent pairing with our tasting. We will defintely come back for other events ! Thanks Toby !
First time trying the afternoon tea. The service was excellent but the food was okay. Wished that the scones were warm. One side of the sandwiches were dry, the other side was soft. Compared to the Cardinal Tea Room & Gryphon D'Or, they're are at the bottom of the list. Sorry, for me, it wasn't worth the $45 + tax + tip for each person.

Generally nice & the service was good. We had the Burger, Fish Cakes & Fish & Chips. Unfortunately the fish in the fish & chips was a crispy chewy overcooked hollow shell. I was going to ask it to be re made or get something else but didn't want to distract from the nice moment I was having with my family. I would go back & probably get the burger but there are plenty of other food options to choose from.
Was there for High Tea. Great atmosphere, great tea, but lacking in the food ( small bites). Both the cucumber & smoked salmon bread on the cut sandwiches were dry, I was told by our server, they make them earlier in the day? So by high tea at 4pm - I am to expect to eat dry bread? Another food comment, the scones were cold, room temperature. I've been to other high tea rooms & the scones are warm to slather on butter & jams. Overall I would dissuade anyone from high tea at Burgundy Lion, the food doesn't match the beautiful atmosphere or the lovely tea itself.
Was delicious as always. Their shepherds pie hasn't changed a bit since I was last there & was the main reason for going. Service was impeccable & waitress was nice enough to give us a great wine recommendation.
Nous étions six à table (à l'étage) pour un High Tea. Le point très positif: notre serveuse Elsie était vraiment charmante & serviable! Elle a d'ailleurs accepté de réduire le son de la musique, à notre demande. Quant aux bouchées servies, elles étaient franchement décevantes: le pain des sandwichs était très sec, les quiches étaient fades & les scones salés manquaient de saveur & de moelleux. Quant aux bouchées froides, les tartelettes aux pacanes étaient sèches. Seul élément vraiment apprécié sur le plateau: les petits pains aux pétites de chocolat.
Fun pub atmosphere. I have been there twice now & will definitely go again. Beer selection is good & I've yet to try something I don't love from the menu. (we've tried the onion soup, scotch egg, fish & chips, cod, & my favourite so far is the shepherd's pie). This year I plan on trying their whiskey tasting & high tea. Staff is fast & friendly.
