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.

Busy even on a Tuesday night in January, probably because it has a great atmosphere. I also tried the grapefruit cocktail which was decent but strong. Service was quick & friendly.

Lovely bar, amazing atmosphere to be with friends but could also be a fun date spot. Service was great! My friend & I were given free shots when asked if we would consider moving to another table to make room for a larger group. 10/10, recommend :)
