Love the vibe here - had dinner during the Habs game which was awesome. Didn't care to be in the basement beside the washrooms but the place was full. Food was good. Sangria Blanca was fine. Our waiter was nice but I think he must've been really new. Kinda bummed we weren't offered any popcorn but I should've asked once I realized. I'd come back.
Great service & delicious meals! Fun place to watch our Habs play an away game!!!
So The waitress got mad because of the tip in exchange of bad service but she doesn't know it's part the worst experience I had in recent years.
Service was too low & too slow.
First step at the door a waiter quickly told me all the tables are reserved (suggesting there aren't any seats left for me) but I had a reservation & they gave me one of the worst seats possible. Funny thing here is that During the 2h I spent there almost 2/3 of the place was empty (but all the seats were reserved & I wanted to just have a first experience at cage au sport & wanted to be optimistic)
Then I ordered 2 drinks , the mini burgers & another entree. I got the drinks but it took them around 40-45 minutes to bring the meal. But I wanted to stay in a good mood check a game, I didn't say anything & just ordered a third drink since i waited that long etc . ( even tho i was bothers by the long wait but I was mostly being polite at the moment) & if course I had trouble having water plus I had to wait & then decided to go to the front desk to get someone to bring me a bill etc
But what shocked me is that she was forcing a 15% gratuity on me. I offered 10% instead & politely explained to her my experience wasn't that great (& i still was in a positive mood because i really wanted to have a simple & relaxed afternoon )
But the girl got mad at me as if she won't accept less than 15% (while 10% I offered for the bad service was around 10$)
So I had to take it as a joke & shove my 10% back in my pocket.
She probably thought i would feel embarrassed by her comment for my 10% but in the end refusing the 10% was the most awesome part of her service to me. I just wish she was polite when refusing it in still happy with it. So this is why I'll give 3 star instead of 1.
& food was ok (on the lower levers of ok but it's ok, maybe I would do 2 star instead of 1) but I think it should be the norm to refuse tip when there is no good service
Thanks for reading!
Nous sommes allés souper avant le show du Cirque du Soleil. Excellent service de Marie-Michele, très attentionnée & de bonne humeur! On retournera au prochain spectacle ou game de hockey!
Great service. Our server (Kariane) was friendly, welcoming, pleasant, helpful & honest! Two hours after dinner, I realized I had lost my credit card. I returned to La Cage (where I had last used it) & was amazed that our server had found it & kept it safe for me. The ambiance is nice for a sports-themed restaurant/bar, & especially for fans of the Montreal Canadiens. After all, it's connected with the Bell Centre. The food was fine for this kind of place. Fried cauliflower appetizer. Burger. Poutine. We kept it simple. be honest, the poutine was lacklustre. The gravy was lukewarm & weak. The cheese sat there, big & chunky; it wouldn't blend with the fries or even slightly melt as I stirred it up. I've had enough great poutine in my life to know this wasn't representing Montréal. Perhaps the cook had an off night? It happens. The goalie can't always block every shot. Anyway, the free popcorn made up for the poutine & the cold Murphy's Irish stout & Griffintown craft beer made it all quite alright. We were there at 5:00 pm on a Friday (non-game) night. It wasn't too busy when we arrived, but it was becoming busier. We walked by on a Saturday (game night) & it was super-busy, but looked like people were having a good time. Good drinks. Cold beer. Fast & friendly service. Decent sports-bar food. Nice ambiance. Great location. Honest staff. All in all, a good experience. We'd return.
William est le meilleur serveur God dam le service avec le restaurant remplie qui nous as donné insane juste avant une game du Canadien!!
The food & drinks are okay. The games on the screens are great, but it is hard to understand one another. 😅
Super belle dîner pour une super belle game des canadiens. Service ça coche 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
both of the stars are for the big screen they had during the Euros (football game). service is not so good. food is, somehow surprisingly, edible.
Je vous conseille l'expérience La Cage Centre Bell. Équipe incroyable, ambiance de folie & nourriture comme on l'aime. Il y à même un accès direct à l'arèna du centre Bell lors des pause des games. Merci pour votre accueil!!!!!
C'est une Cage au Sport. Le service était bien, c'était propre & l'ambiance était correcte. Il n'y avait pas de game des Canadiens ce soir-là alors c'était plus calme.
Excellent place to hang out & watch sports. I was in Montréal on vacation & was worried I wouldn't be able to watch my college football team play but not only did they have the game, they put it on very quickly. La service & la nourriture étaient très excellentes & je reviendrai ici la prochaine fois que je suis à Montréal. Merci beaucoup! 😊
Was in a pinch to find a spot close to my hotel & open late & found this place!! There was a line to get in since it was right after the Bruins game but got in quickly. The wait staff was friendly & the atmosphere was chill. Ordered the whiskey chicken sandwich I think & it was DELICIOUS 😋 was super filling too. The drinks were cool
Great location & great atmosphere to watch a game on their giant TV. Unfortunately, service was slow, servers paid no attention to us & we had to chase them down all the time. The Brie mushroom burger was disappointing & the chicken club was simply awful. Cold too including the fries. I would avoid completely as there are so many better places downtown Montreal.
