Review Summary

Overall, Hurley's Irish Pub comes across as a Montreal institution, offering a welcoming two floor layout with cozy corners, live music, and a festive Celtic atmosphere that works for pre game buzz or a relaxed night out. Reviewers praise a tremendous beer selection and an impressive whiskey list, along with solid pub fare and standout dishes like beef stew or a hearty fish and chips, though some meals have been noted as inconsistent and portions as smaller since Covid. Staff receive frequent compliments for friendliness and attentiveness, contributing to a warm, engaging vibe across multiple visits. Two levels, a downstairs intimate space and an upstairs area with music, plus a terrace, are highlighted as great features that add to the original charm, though crowds can push seating and service during peak times. While prices can be on the higher side and a few menu items have been cut back, the overall sentiment is that this pub delivers a top notch experience for beer lovers, sports crowds, and fans of live Irish music. Many say they will return, making this a go to spot in Montreal for those seeking good drinks, lively entertainment, and a friendly crowd.

Hurley's Irish Pub is a cozy spot with great drinks & charming little corners. We picked a perfect spot to sit, but unfortunately, a few inconsiderate sports fans briefly disrupted the experience-not the pub's fault, of course. Once they left, we fully enjoyed the warm atmosphere. The food & drinks were excellent, making it a great place for a romantic date or a casual get-together with friends.

Hurley's Irish Pub has long been a Montreal favorite, & my recent visit reminded me why. Catching up with an old friend over a couple of pints, I was reminded of the pub's enduring charm.

Stepping into Hurley's is like stepping into a traditional Irish pub. The decor is warm & inviting, with plenty of dark wood & cozy nooks. The staff are friendly & welcoming, making you feel right at home.

While Hurley's offers a menu of traditional pub fare, we were there for the Guinness. & Hurley's certainly delivers on that front. The Guinness was perfectly poured & tasted just as it should.
But Hurley's is more than just a place to get a good pint. It's also a great place to catch up with friends, relax after work, or enjoy some live music. The atmosphere is always lively & convivial, making it a great spot for a night out.

If you're looking for an authentic Irish pub experience in Montreal, Hurley's is definitely worth a visit. Just be warned, it can get busy, especially on weekends. But that's just a testament to its popularity.

Pub impeccable ! Souvent des concert & beaucoup d'espace. On retrouve bien l'ambiance pub. Jeu de fléchettes gratuit où d'ailleurs je gagne très souvent contre mes amis.

Great pub in downtown montreal! Very close to the Bell Center so its a good option before heading there. Fish & chips is pretty good, just a bit too greasy. Also tried there regular burger & it was delicious! Very decently priced for downtown

Bon choix de bières, plats de bonne qualité, déco sympa. Comme tous ces genres d'endroits, la musique est beaucoup trop forte ! Obligés de crier pour s'entendre... Quelques dB de moins feraient du bien à tout le monde sans transformer le pub en speakeasy.

You know you found the right Irish pub, when there's a firmly handshake with the super friendly owner, you tell each other's names & do smalltalk over some pints of Guinness or good IPAs with whoever is sitting next to you. There's also nice live music & terrace seating.

The food is classic pub food but quite decent. The atmosphere is charming & the waiters super cool. We went for comedy night & it was cozy & fun. Cobb salad was ok, the sweet potato fries were a massive bucket with curry mayo sauce that was yummy. The smoked meat sandwich was small but good. Would go again for drinks & entertainment :)

I love this pub so much!! It's seems like being in a tavern in Middle Earth drinking with Dwarfs & Hobbits . Excelent food & cold beer but the best is the music....ooohhh, they make the atmosphere perfect!!
