La Cage est une chaine de restauration sportive québécoise présente à la grandeur de la province avec plus de 40 établissements. Avec son décor moderne, son menu toujours actualisé et sa technologie de pointe, le réseau bénéficie d’un positionnement unique, s’appuyant sur la bouffe, la bière et le sport pour offrir une ambiance unique à sa clientèle.
La Cage is described as a lively sports bar with large screens, where the atmosphere is energetic and the food is generally solid, with many reviewers noting attentive and friendly service, especially during busy game nights, while a minority report slow service, billing or app issues, and occasional gaps in consistency; the staff is praised for handling large groups and accommodating allergies, and the overall impression is that La Cage remains a popular place to watch sports and have a meal, though prices can feel high and experiences can vary by night.
I genuinely did not think restaurant service could be THIS bad until I came here. You usually expect bad service from random restaurants, not from a chain this established like la cage.
We came to La Cage to watch the Habs game & ended up spending over 2 hours watching this restaurant completely fail at doing the bare minimum.
After ordering, it took 15 minutes for our waitress to come back just to tell us that one of the meals we ordered was unavailable. Fine, mistakes happen. We changed the order. Then we waited another 45 minutes for our appetizers, while tables around us that arrived later were already halfway through their meals.
When the nachos finally arrived, they somehow had NO SAUCE at all. Just dry nachos. Minutes later, my chicken tenders arrived while the other 4 people at the table still had absolutely no food.
When we asked where everyone else's meals were, we were told there was a'system issue' & that the food was'coming soon.' At this point it was already around 8:30 p.m. We had arrived at 7.
The manager eventually came after another long wait & offered us two free desserts as compensation. Sounds nice until you realize the disaster somehow continued into dessert too.
Our meals finally arrived around 9 p.m., some with burnt bread & cold fries, but honestly we were too exhausted & hungry to even complain anymore.
Then came dessert. We asked for cheesecake & pain perdu. Fifteen minutes later, we were told the pain perdu wasn't available. We replaced it with a half-baked chocolate cake. FIVE minutes later, the manager comes back AGAIN to say they don't have that either, & instead drops off a tiny mousse au chocolat with TWO spoons for a table of FIVE people. & no cheesecake.
So after over 2 hours of waiting, missing menu items, burnt food, forgotten orders, terrible communication, & one of the most disorganized dining experiences I've ever had, the compensation was basically two bites of mousse.
I usually don't leave bad reviews unless I've had an actually terrible experience, & this absolutely was one of them. I'm honestly shocked at how bad the service was from beginning to end.

Restaurant-bar sportif. Nous avons été impressionnés par le menu! Ma salade Capitaine Tao était tout simplement extraordinaire. À l'arrivée, du popcorn est servi gratuitement - une touche agréable. Le poke au saumon est super bon! La bière est bien froide & servie rapidement. Le stationnement est facile, & l'endroit est également accessible à pied depuis le métro.
Food quality is mediocre at best - it is just not worth the price.
1) 33 bucks for peppercorn sauce steak - perhaps the worst steak of my life. All the things that were wrong with it:
- it was lukewarm (ew!)
- not seasoned enough
- did not have the'smoky' flavor
- was very hard to cut + chew.
- Fries that came with it were soggy & extremely salty.
2) 29 bucks for salmon tataki - fish was way too salty for my partner's taste.
3) MOST IMPORTANT THING - the beers! I found they tasted great - but it took forever to bring them to our table (even though we ordered them right away). To give you a better idea of a waiting time - they came 1-2 mins before food! & that is for a sports bar setting ;0 Our server asked if all is good with our meal by the time we were half finished with it. Again, that is a very long wait time based on my experience.
4) As for the atmosphere - The floors were very dirty - popcorn droppings everywhere. Also I found there were too many kids on that particular evening.
Très grande Cage, stationnement assez difficile à trouver. Écrans géants impressionnants, y projeter du curling n'est pas très excitant. Des menus sur code à barre, assez ordinaire. On essaie de délcrocher de nos téléphones. Pour les prix, compter 9 à 11,50$ la bière. Sinon, pout manger, ajouter un minimum de 22$. Donc oui, la facture monte rapidement. Côté servicr le personnel est souriant.
Fantastic wing night thursdays. The app is great. This place is a wonderful option for sports. Biggest tv in the area. Phone chargers built into the bar is a nice touch.

Je recommande à fond !
Merci Emna & le grand costaud au bar !
Ma deuxième visite a cette succursale & certainement ma dernière . La première fois on nous a assis au bars pendant 1h le temps qu'ils préparent notre table (nous avions une réservation). Une fois assis, notre serveuse est venu nous voir 1 fois pour prendre notre commande & elle à disparu le reste de la soirée. Après 40 min j'ai du me lever & aller voir le manager pour demander où est notre bouffe. On m'a alors expliqué qu'il y a eu une erreur & que la cuisine n'a jamais reçu notre commande. On nous rien offert de complémentaire à part de médiocres excuses. Je suis retourné hier pour le match des canadien. On nous a assis dès notre arrivée a 7h20 mais nous avons seulement reçu notre nourriture en 3ieme période. La serveuse est venue prendre notre commande (aucun sourire ni émotions ) & est revenue avec la nourriture & c'est la seul vois qu'on la vue. La pizza que j'ai eux n'était pas cuite entièrement (pate planche voir photo) & tellement molle que j'ai du la manger a la fourchette. Honnêtement mis à part l'établissement & les télés cette endroit a rien de bon à offrir. Allez ailleurs.
Excellent service from the greeting & service to the bar area. Excellent service by Camille, friendly & accurate. Unfortunately, i wish the food was up to the usual standards: I ordered the spicy chicken burger like always, but this time the bread was a little stale & the chicken was dry, strange considering there is coleslaw in it. Apart from that , I still recommend a good service & atmosphere for a Habs game. Just attention to the kitchen on the over dryness of the burger. thanks & cheers!

Clean & kid-friendly sports bar. The food is good. Crispy wings, good burgers, hot fries, ... Decent choice of draft beers. The service is good every time we go! The atmosphere changes whether sports events are going on or not but even when nothing is on, they play highlights & it becomes the perfect place for lunch or even a relaxed first date.
La Cage Sports Bar hits the mark! The food is exceptional, every dish is a culinary delight. The service is top-notch, with attentive & friendly staff. From appetizers to desserts, La Cage delivers a winning experience. I'll definitely be returning! 🌟🍔🏈
I just had the worst experience at Cage aux sports on rue des jockeys. Not only was the service terrible, so terrible our drinks came after our meals. The manager - Jhonny is completely useless, the 2 waitresses on staff were obviously a bit busy & he did absolutely nothing to help them. In fact when we asked for the bill, he didn't even apologize, he yelled at the waitress to bring it to us; when I then asked him to give it to us he ignored me completely & went to talk to his friends at the bar. Absolute worst service (& I know it's not great with covid - but this was really terrible) & the food was not good either. I will not be going back!
