Duke & Devine's Pub Irlandais feels like a cozy neighbourhood pub with a welcoming vibe and a rotating seasonal menu. The menu earns strong praise for its Irish nachos, fish and chips, and flavorful fish tacos, with burgers and brisket sandwiches also highlighted. The terrace is described as a nice option for summer and a good setting for catching up with friends or dining with family, while the inside can feel a bit cramped in the winter. Service is often described as friendly, quick, and attentive, though a few reviews note occasional lapses or that staff can be overwhelmed at times. A robust beer selection and live music add to the atmosphere, and many visitors say the pub remains a reliable go to that they would return to. Some comments mention room for improved variety in drinks, including mocktails, and a few perceive the pricing as high for certain items.
I took my mother for dinner Friday night & we sat outside & listened to Shinebox, whose music was great. The food, fish & chips for her & the Sammie something or other for me, the one with the fried chicken & lobster, were fantastic, as were the french fries & soup du jour, cream of mushroom. But, the most impressive & satisfying thing about our evening was the staff, all of them, but especially our waitress, were fantastic.
Not only were they friendly but they were super efficient & took good care of their customers. Too often, service is a let down in a lot of restaurants but the staff here were exceptional.
We were here last night for dinner & had a wonderful time.
Our server was kind & brought a good energy to our evening.
By chicken BLT was scrumptious & I enjoyed our corner booth.
Good Job!

We hosted a private party at D&D & the experience was perfect from start to finish. The set-up with appetizer stations was exactly what I had in mind, & it created a great atmosphere for guests to mingle, eat, & drink throughout the evening. The food was excellent - as always, people were raving! The selection & quantities were spot-on: wings, nachos, crab dip, mini burgers, fish & steak tacos, sweet potato fries, fried chicken bites & the most delicious desserts. The two staff members were outstanding: great attitude, communicative, & totally on the ball. Everyone had a fantastic time, & I'm so happy I chose to host the party here.
The food was so good, Irish Nachos were the best Irish no his I have ever had.
But there's more, the service was exceptional.
If you have thought about going here…..STOP thinking & GO.
We were served by a very nice waitress by the name of Taryn, who suggested some amazing food fair. We tried the soup of the day, which was a Cheddar Bacon & Jalapeno, & it was so delicious 😋. We also had the Fish & Chips that hit the OMG spot & the Brisket sandwich. It was a spirited dinner out & a guaranteed return & assured patronage to this pub. Bravo to all here 👏 & thank you.
I dined at this pub for the first time this past Saturday & I couldn't be happier with my experience. The food was excellent. I had the Caesar salad while my friend had one of the burgers, & we finished with the brownie for dessert. We also ordered a pitcher of sangria, which was visually pleasing & delicious! The service was also fantastic & our server was very friendly. As luck would have it, the power went out due to weather conditions, but that didn't stop us from having a nice evening. The musician present that evening, Jeffrey Waters, lifted everyone's spirits as we sang along with him. The next day, one of the owners, Cary, sent me a kind message following up & apologizing for the inconvenience the power outage caused. While I didn't see any reason to apologize, it was still a lovely sentiment. All this to say, I will be coming back 😊
