I've been here a few times with large groups during the Habs playoff games, & each time Kev has been our server. He's been absolutely fantastic-friendly, attentive, & made the experience so enjoyable. We've had an amazing time on every visit, & the atmosphere is always lively & fun. Highly recommend!
This was a late night spot to try while visiting Montréal. It was pretty empty so it was quiet. Service was great & helpful & attentive food was really good

Recently took a trip to Montreal & McLean's was my first stop & boy did they set the tone for what was a great vacation. Was warmly greeted by Abby who was not only attentive but kind & wonderful to talk to. Food was flavorful & filling. It was a bit slow but it didn't take away from the atmosphere. My only minor critique of the food was they need to crisp up their fries a bit more but their flavour was outstanding. Went the next night for The Blue Jays game & the vibe was everything you would want it to be. On my next trip to Montreal I will DEFINITELY be coming here for a pint & some food.
Ps. Love how they repurposed old kegs into urinals. A unique & quirky touch 😁
Mitch was our bartender & he provided such a fun familiar service to us. He was very attentive to our drinks & always kept us full! Judy the owner was also there & she was very friendly & my husband & I did not want to leave! We stayed for 3 hours! Would recommended this bar to anyone passing by wanting to grab a friendly drink!
It was my first time visiting this pub, & I have to say, the atmosphere was absolutely outstanding! I was lucky to be served by Chloé, a new staff member, whose customer service was both attentive & impressive. The entire staff was friendly, & full of energy. As for the food, it was simply delicious! Generous portions, & the smash burger with homemade fries was a real treat!!!Definitely worth a visit!
Great ambience, food was well prepared & served quickly. Servers were attentive & offered good suggestions. Depending on the sporting events on the TVs, it can be a little loud.
This is the new MacLeans (just a year & a half in), & it's everything you'd hope for! Greeted by an incredibly welcoming, kind, & genuinely attentive staff. They all make top-notch cocktails: expertly crafted with no overload of sugary fillers. The decor: a perfect blend of modern with warm, traditional touches. & a nice large « terrasse » for those long summer evenings. It's official-this is my new go-to local. & cherry on top? They play the 6 Nations rugby games 😍
Lexie was an amazing waitress, bringing great energy & service. We were here for a montreal canadiens playoff game & she was very attentive during such a busy night. Great atmosphere overall, definitely recommend.
We stopped by for a beer & some snacks. Ordered: • Drunken Mushrooms • Samosa Both came in generous portions, were fragrant, well seasoned, crispy outside. Staff are attentive, fast with serving & friendly. Location, pub style. If you sit at a hight table, it may get tight with the neighbours at the table next to you (back to back).
