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.

Very over priced. Chicken tenders & chips being $27…. 5 small tenders full of oil & no flavour. Chips barely salted. Bottles of beer for $12….

Apart from being seating & served / cleared. No one to check on how everything was going etc.

Guys please clean your draft taps & the plumbing .

Had a Belgian moon & was left with taste of oily mouthfeel after taste.

Definitely not worth 12 bucks!

Disappointed with the Italian Cabernet Sauvignon tasted more of a light body Pinot Noir. For the price is not worth it.

There is definitely a cool sports bar kind of vibe & an enjoyable atmosphere. The food coming out looked decent but my fish & chips were really bad. Mashed cod in a rubbery corn dog batter (seen in photo). Like…why? My wife had the classic poutine & said it was ok. Our server was friendly but we only saw her once. I don't think it was bad enough for 2 stars but barely good enough for 3. They should just take the fish off the menu. The burgers looked good & so did the nachos. Too many other choices to return but if you want classic pub food, it's decent I guess.
