Review Summary

Reviews of L'île Noire Pub highlight a deep selection of whiskies and an extensive drinks menu that many find impressive, paired with a cozy, British-Scottish vibe and a setting that works well for dates or evenings with friends. Service receives a mix of praise and criticism: attentive, friendly staff and solid overall service when not overwhelmed, but reports of understaffing on busy weekend nights leading to delays and miscommunication. The atmosphere is described as warm and convivial, with pirate-inspired decor and a terrace that offers a pleasant view, though music volume and crowding can vary and affect the vibe. Food options are available and generally acceptable, with some noting good value for drinks and snacks while others find the bites not aligned with prices or gluten-free options limited. Overall, the pub is viewed as a top choice for whisky enthusiasts and socializing, offering a classic Montreal bar experience with notable night-to-night variation.

A well-done pub that brands itself as a whisky bar. Whisky selection was not sprawling but better than an average pub. Our server was great, I enjoyed her style & attitude. Lovely local beer selection at reasonable prices. More mature crowd than the student-dominated bars along St. Catherine.

Reservation: We ended up with a smaller group than expected (5 instead of 7). The restaurant staff had difficulty providing us with a table big enough for 5 people. We had to sit at a table of 4 & it felt very uncomfortable. I did raise the concern with the staff & they said there was nothing they could do, even If I did reserve 2 weeks in advance. I felt the reservation & sitting were poorly managed.

Service: The staff knows their products, & when they are not sure, they work as a team to get the best recommendations for whisky tasting. A+ on that!

Food: Food is tasty but quantity is deceiving for the price. Avoid the red velvet cake, it tasted like an expired frozen cake. However, the staff was understanding & did not charge it.
