Pretty typical pub food great fries. We got the basic poutine it was fine but nothing too exciting. The service was excellent & the patio was a great place to sit.

I suffered through this place so you dont have to. Food was mediocre at best, tables were disgustingly dirty & the place was understaffed. Do yourself a favor & find another place.

Being a local resident of Montreal, I try to avoid tourist traps in old Montreal. I knew walking in that I was going to pay way more then usuall. I ordered an overpriced I.P.A draft beer & a simple smoked meat sandwich, with salad instead of fries.The host was a young man who was very polite & friendly & gave me an available table at the far left side of the terrace. Choseing to face the North side I had a hanging plant, constantly slapping me in the back of my head. I tried wrapping it around the support piller with no long term results.The waiter was a polite young man who served me with the best intentions. Unfortunately the food could have been better for the prices that they charge.That part I didn't mind so much because you can't expect the same smoked meat quality as on the Main in Montreal. What really got under my skin was that nobody checked in on me after I got my meal. I had to wave down an other waiter, just to get some peper. After I finished my meal, & finished my beer, & I wanted to pay for my bill so I could leave.The young polite waiter who served me, was not properly trained. He was taking orders from new clients & walking away without looking around to see if his current clients needed anything.He kept walking back into the restaurant, empty handed with piles of empty dishes all around. He never looked around before leaving his area to see if anybody needed anything. I tried many times to get his attention, so that I could pay & go on my way.Unbelievably people are getting turned away because the place was full. I had to get up & walk to the front of the entrance & ask for my bill. The host said to follow him to the cash, I said no, I want to pay at my table because I want to leave. All in all I wasted twenty five minutes waiting for my bill, while they turned people away for being too busy. I let the polite young man know that I wasn't happy with the poor service. He apologized & was very humble in taking responsibility for the lack of good service. I calmly explained to him that I was a waiter for many years & I know good service when I see it. I personally don't blame him, I blame the owner & management for not properly training him for the job. His lack of initiative, could not be successful in a high paced environment like this. He deserved proper training because he is a find youge man with good manners. Manager, especially owner, do better in training your staff, its your responsibility!

I took my parents on an Old Montreal adventure & it was HOT, so we stopped here for a refreshment outside.

The hostess was VERY nice & explained the menu so well I thought she was our waitress. Kudos. We ordered a couple beers & relaxed.

Nothing to complain about.

Great option off place de jacques-cartier where you can still watch the buskers & other action going on. Bit slow & food was a bit slow, but all in all a great choice for a pub.
