Local75 Bistro Pub comes across in reviews as a warm local gem with consistently friendly and attentive staff, a lively yet cozy vibe, and a menu that mixes comforting pub favorites with creative specialties. The food is frequently praised for flavor and freshness, with dishes such as wings, ribs, burgers, smoked meats, duck, crab cakes and more, described as delicious and well presented. Drinks are a highlight as well, with strong cocktails and a good beer and wine selection, and even mocktails available, all offered at reasonable prices. The atmosphere suits casual nights out and informal gatherings, with bar seating, a lively dining room, and a pleasant outdoor patio. While service is often top notch, occasional issues arise, such as a dine-in misstep where an entree was forgotten and a dish with a hair in it, leading some guests to choose not to return. The no reservations policy can make seating tricky during peak times, but overall the reviews describe a neighborhood staple that delivers generous portions, solid value, and a welcoming, energetic environment that keeps people coming back.
I'm honestly shocked at the treatment we received at Local 75 in Monkland Village.
We walked in with the intention of grabbing drinks & politely asked if we could use the bathroom before ordering. Instead of a simple yes or no, the manager responded by asking what we were going to use the bathroom for which felt sarcastic & completely unnecessary. It was an uncomfortable way to greet potential customers.
We then said no problem, we'd order drinks first but instead of resolving the situation, she told us to leave & kicked us out.
No explanation. No professionalism. Just instant hostility.
If that's how they treat people who are about to spend money there, I can't imagine how they handle actual issues. There are plenty of other great spots in NDG that know how to treat customers with basic respect. I won't be returning.
Candice was absolutely wonderful! Best drinks I've ever had & the most wonderful energy. The food was absolutely amazing, music is the perfect volume for a pleasant conversation & the atmosphere is divine. Will be coming back for sure! Truly a hidden gem on monkland ✨💕

Delicious food & ample drinks!! BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!
Go here & enjoy the amazing experience. Ribs are fall off the bone. Chicken is moist. The fries are crispy. Like everything was just perfect. Drinks sure to get you tipsy.
Whether it's a night out amount girls or a date night, the vibes are there. What a wonderful experience I had there.
Gabrielle was our waitress & did a great job with our group. The food was good, so were the drinks. The wait time was acceptable & the ambiance was very pleasant. Very nice NDG bar.
I went on a Monday evening. It was beautiful day so both the inside & patio were packed. It took a little time for us to be seated, but no worries it was busy & understandable. We ordered drinks which were good, & it didn't take too long despite how busy it was but we had to re order one because it was forgotten. I also ordered 12 wings for the table. Unfortunately, it never arrived. It was taking a little while so I tried my luck & asked, it was never sent to the kitchen. I was offered the option of the kitchen doing it as soon as possible but it would have taken an extra 15 minutes on top of the 30 minutes minimum we waited already & I did not have time to wait anymore. We also wanted to order the parmesan fries, but no fries. I was really looking forward to trying the food here, but I will not be returning due to my disappointing experience.
A charming little place that had excellent food a very nice service. There isn't an abundance of indoor seating so we had to wait a bit before being seated inside. We were able to order drinks & sit in the covered patio until a table became available. We tried the sausage & cauliflower appetizers (the Buffalo sauce is my new favorite) & a chicken burger & half chicken with rice & beans. All of it was excellent. I'm certainly returning here in the future.
