Hurley's Irish Pub is the premiere Irish pub in Montreal. Since it opened in 1993, the friendly staff have been serving 18 draft beers, a selection of more than 40 single malts and 8 whiskeys. A selection of hearty fare awaits you. With two floors, there is live music played every night, a fireplace, a game room and a quiet snug.
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.
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.

Our server was really friendly & the vibes were nice! Can become quite loud inside as any place with alcohol is. Definitely would visit again! & btw I don't think you have to wait until being seated she just told us to sit anywhere we wanted :)
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.
Doug & Zak & Erin are the primary reasons I come here & spend my own tips earned from working the bar next door (i really miss the saturday sessions with Belfast Andi though) but THANK GOD there's live music every night, even on a monday night !!

Just came for drinks on a Friday night & had a blast!! Live music was incredible & made for such a fun atmosphere. The trio they had was fantastic & so talented!! Great service too : )
Great place to grab a drink with friends & enjoy live music! The service is great, although can sometimes slow down in a big rush (as can be expected).
Waited 10 minutes to be seated only to be told by a client that I could sit wherever. Chose a table & it took another 5 minutes to receive the menu. I waited another 45 minutes. Nobody came to take my order, so I left.
