Review Summary

Hurley's Irish Pub is widely considered a staple of downtown Montreal, celebrated for its authentic atmosphere, live musical performances, and an impressive selection of Irish beers on tap, including perfectly poured Guinness. The establishment features a variety of unique seating areas, ranging from cozy nooks to a pleasant back courtyard, making it suitable for both lively gatherings and quiet conversations. While most guests praise the friendly and professional service, experiences with staff can be inconsistent during peak hours. Opinions regarding the food are mixed, with some patrons enjoying quality pub staples like fish and chips and wings, while others find the menu limited or the pricing high for the portion sizes. Despite occasional crowds and noise levels, the venue remains a beloved local institution where many return for the festive energy and consistent hospitality.

Went for trivia & the comedy show. Trivia was pretty sparsely attended but that did not stop the host from leaning into it. Great time & what you would expect from comics with five minutes of material. Some were strong others struggled & that added to the fun. Great draft beer selection & Luke took care of us.

Transparency- We went to eat but the primary reason that Hurley's was selected was because the serve Murphys Irish Stout :). So, the beer was delicious 😋. The location us a bit of a labyrinth & the inside bar/service staff were really not much help, as a result had to guess our way to the back courtyard as we wanted to be outside but we made it. There is outdoor seating that is covered out front as well as all kinds of space inside to sit. The back courtyard was nice, more of a private,the staff outside were far batter than the inside, based on our experience. The pricing was very fair, drinks were good, small food menu when we went but good quality & plenty of food on the plate. 2 of us had the club sandwich which was served on sourdough bread (very good). It had real chicken breast as well as crispy bacon & a large serving if fries. The other two meals were the fish & chips (large portion & 1/2 pound of chicken wings which were covered in sauce. The wings were full wings & the slats were still attached to the drumstick, bbq sauce was tasy & came with a side of cut carrots & celery. There was a TV on out back & inside playing the FIFA World Cup games. Overall, we would go back, pint pours were done well, cocktails were very fairly priced food was decent & it did not break the bank! Cheers

Music everyday. What more could you want? It's a bit pricey but for a downtown bar it's nothing crazy. For a $10 (cost for a beer) concert any night of the week I'd say that's pretty good

We had a large party of 15 so they gave us a room off of the main room. It was perfect! The service was amazing! The food was good but limited. Lots of beer to select

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!

Cozy pub with brick walls and carved wood, and a patio to enjoy draft beer, single malts, food and live music.
