Review Summary

John Michael's Pub is widely regarded as a welcoming destination in the heart of Old Montreal, frequently praised for its vibrant atmosphere, spacious patio, and accommodating staff. Guests often highlight the generous portions of comfort food, such as the popular poutine, burgers, and fish and chips, alongside a solid selection of beers and cocktails. While most experiences emphasize efficient and friendly service, particularly from attentive bartenders and servers who go above and beyond to assist guests, a few reviewers noted inconsistencies regarding pricing, noise levels, or occasional service delays. Despite some mixed feedback on costs and specific menu items, the establishment remains a go-to spot for travelers and locals looking to enjoy live sports, a relaxed drink, or a satisfying meal in a classic pub setting.

Bof, une trappe à touriste. $20 pour un simple poutine. De plus le serveur ne parlait pas français. On y retournera pas.

The staff is absolutely nice. The guy who served us was really helpful & nice. We asked for nachos but they weren't that good compared with the price, but for the main dish we asked for Philly cheese & John Michael's Burger & they were amazing!! Big portions.

Un petit bijou au Vieux Port. Je cherchais un endroit "cozy" pour manger une poutine & prendre une bonne bière. Très content d'avoir trouvé le Pub John Michaels. Service impeccable & bonne poutine. Merci à Mathias & Nicolas pour l'excellent service. Nous reviendrons, c'est certain.

Stopped by for a quick beer, inside is really nice & cozy & during summer it has a patio outside, classic pub I'd say, location is great & prices are fair, didn't try the food but it looked good even though some items were a bit on the expensive side, would try it out if I'm again in the area, beers were great!
