Review Summary

Hurley's Irish Pub is a bustling multi room venue with a classic pub vibe, two floors and a cozy outdoor terrace, widely praised for its live music, broad beer and whiskey selection, and the feeling of a Montreal institution. The staff are generally friendly and attentive, though crowds and peak hours can slow service, and a few notes mention menu changes and occasional smaller portions post Covid. Food covers wings, fish and chips, burgers and beef stews with solid quality, drinks and atmosphere are a big draw for pre game gatherings and casual nights out, and many reviewers describe it as one of the best Irish pubs in Montreal, highlighting the welcoming vibe, the live music and occasional comedy nights as standout features. Overall Hurley's Irish Pub is seen as a top spot for meeting friends, watching sports, and enjoying a pint with lively Irish style, even if some dishes or prices vary by visit.

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 :)

Very nice place to walk in & sit for a few drinks. Would recommend the strawberry beer if you don't like beer as much 🍓

The staff are amazing & when a random stranger started harassing a table, the wonderful server was there to intercept & make sure that the female at the table was safe! Thank you for making your establishment a safe & fun environment.

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!!

We visited on a Saturday night & had a memorable dinner. The place was cosy & nice, the food was decent, the service was great, & the live music was AMAZING. The vibe was so good that we ended up canceling our plans to stay late till 1 am. The band was superb & the happy crowd danced to their content. Hurley's will remain a special place for us & one that we will visit whenever we are in Montreal.

Wow, can't say enough about this pub. We were on a 25-day road trip through Canada. We spent 2 nights in Montreal. We always seek out Irish pubs, & we found a gem. We had dinner at Hurleys & as always, we sat at the bar, because that is the best way to meet the local folks. Our bartender, Sam was absolutely the best. We had met Sam earlier in the day when we stopped in for a cold beer. He was so welcoming, we decided to go back for dinner. The Best decision in Montreal. We met three truly amazing guys. Kristen, Rod & Michael. We talked for quite a while & enjoyed swapping stories. Though Sam was busy, he made sure he came over & joined in the fun. They all made us feel like we were old friends. We left that night knowing that we really did make new friends. so, If you are traveling through Montreal, stop by & see Sam, & make some new friends. John & Nancy Fetter Harlem, Georgia USA
