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.

When I visit cities & walk around like a tourist, I love stopping into pubs for a beer to sit, reset, & reorient myself. Montréal didn't really deliver on that-not many pub style places were opened, or everything was closed or hidden behind Québec's national emblem: the construction cone 😄

So thank god for Pub John Michael's 🍻

Exactly what I needed. Cold pint, no hassle, & a warm, welcoming vibe right when I needed it most.

The Philly cheesesteak was a bit bready, but still delicious, & the fries were crispy & satisfying.

Service was friendly & efficient-quick, attentive, & no fuss.

Inside has that great pub feel with plenty of seating & TVs, but still relaxed enough to just sit back & recharge.

Price-wise, about $58 all-in (Philly, beer, & tip) felt steep-but hey, inflation hits us all these days.

Clutch stop when everything else seemed closed. Would absolutely come back.

The poutine was good, but it was also $23. The drinks are expensive too, & my friend said his rum & coke wasn't great. My Mojito was $17💀

Also, the funniest bit was that after a song played, I heard'Want a break from the ads?' blast through the speakers. Damn, for how expensive the food is you wonder where the money goes🥀(for the uninitiated, that's what Spotify plays in between songs when you have the free tier, the paid tier is like $10)

Wouldn't recommend because of the price (good food & service but was not worth what I paid), & avoid buying drinks there at all costs.

Traveled from US for a long weekend in Montreal. We were walking to find a sports bar with NFL games on a Sunday. Poked my head in & asked if they had NFL. They were very friendly & put on the game we were looking for. Food was very sold. Draft beer was also very good as was service. Background music was pop/dance which was kind of fun to watch games. Nice afternoon. Go Birds!

A nice spot away from the weekend crowd. Not too busy but still lively!

Typical sports grill atmosphere with sports playing on big screens & groups of people talking & laughing.

Fast service & good food! The fries weren't anything special but the cheeseburger was very delicious!
