Her zaman gittigim bir yer müziklerini seviyorum hep çok yo?un kalabal?k yer bulmak biraz zor oluyor kafa dinlemelik de?il müzik çok sesli oldu?u için muhabbet etmekte zorlan?yorsunuz ve bu yüzden insanlar çok sesli konu?uyorlar biraz gürültülü bir ye
Bonne ambiance, mais le Fish & Chip était atroce. C'est une insulte d'appeler 3 pogos de poisson sur une poignée de frite ça surtout a 30$. Mais bon, c'est un peu de ma faute aussi d'avoir commandé de la fine cuisine dans un pub au vieux port ......
Good professional bartenders that know what they are doing. Great atmosphere with some Irish music. This is a real Irish pub & not a pretender. Did not try food so I don't know. Bathrooms are clean. It's a good stop. It does get crowded with college kids later on but they are fun.
Great atmosphere, very good food & beer, the waitress was not impressive, no water or check up at the table, & it was very quiet at lunch time on a Wednesday, so it was not that she was overly busy!

I went there twice before concerts, good spot for sure, but compared to the others bars & restaurants nearby, it's pricey for sure, when you pay over $60 for 2 beers & 2 appetizers.. I didn't experience the live music, this review is just about the pricing, everything else is great!
A tall blonde waitress/bartender at the bar tonight (Friday, April 24) had a very rude attitude from the beginning. She was pushing people just to get through.
While people were dancing, she pushed two people at the same time, & it was so hard that one of them fell into me. I also fell to the ground & hit my head badly against a chair.
She didn't even come to apologize or check if I was okay. Her behavior was extremely disrespectful & unprofessional.
I've been to this place a few times before & I always found the atmosphere & staff polite & professional, but this employee is absolutely not suitable for working in such a small & crowded place.
I strongly recommend that if you see her, do not take service from her.
Quelle belle découverte! Je suis allé dans ce bar avec des amis par hasard. Les musiciens sur place étaient incroyables. Chapeau à eux. Je reviendrai assurément & je recommande à tous!
This was an amazing authentic Irish pub we visited a couple times while on our trip to Montreal. Great pub food great drinks & an amazing Irish band that pled both nights we were there. Will definitely be going back here again when I return to montreal again!!
