Else's is widely regarded as a charming and cozy hidden gem in Montreal, praised for its inviting atmosphere, eclectic decor, and consistent quality of food and drinks. Patrons frequently highlight the mac and cheese, dumplings, and various taco options as standout dishes, while the house beer and well-crafted cocktails are consistently recommended. Although the venue is popular and can become quite busy and loud during peak hours, most guests appreciate the friendly, accommodating staff and the laid-back, social environment. While some visitors find the portion sizes small or the noise level challenging, the overall consensus is that the pub offers a unique and memorable experience that keeps locals and visitors alike returning for more.

Best margaritas ever! Delicious espresso martini as well. Mac & cheese was excellent, with a very flavourful bbq sauce on top. Brussels sprouts salad was pretty good. This place is small & cozy. Love the local vibe.
