Review Summary

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.

Entre par hasard au détour d'une rue, Nous ne l'avons pas regreté. Des plats copieux & savoureux des tarifs compétitifs. Une déco pub anglais. Musique un peu forte pour avoir une conversation feutrée.

I recently visited Else's, & while the food didn't quite hit the mark, the service & atmosphere made the experience enjoyable overall. Apart from the pulled pork sandwiches, the dishes I tried weren't very flavourful. That said, the staff was incredibly friendly & attentive, & the ambiance was warm & inviting-perfect for a relaxed evening out.

Incroyable! L'ambiance est tamisée, parfaite pour un rendez vous amoureux ou une rencontre discrète avec un partenaire de crime. La nourriture est à tomber par terre surtout le poulet au beurre & le macaroni au fromage. Finalement, c'est aussi le bar avec un des meilleurs espresso martini. Délicieux & généreux.
