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.
McLean's Publique has a welcoming atmosphere & one of the best trivia nights in Montreal. Jesse is a dynamic & exceptionally well-prepared trivia host. Our waitress, Emily, always welcomes us with a smile & friendly conversation. Excellent service overall. Highly recommend.
This is simply the best place to eat in Montreal Downtown. Ambience, delicious meals, & great service (thank you, Emily) made this our go-to pub while we were in Montreal.
We had a wonderful time at this pub. We came in late to Montréal from Pennsylvania & wanted to find a place to grab a quick bite. The bartender Mitch was not only a great bartender, but also gave us loads of advice on what to do while we were in the city & made us feel very welcome. We had such a good time we went back for drinks the next night!

I like this place. Food is pretty good & in my opinion above expectations for pub fare. Staff is good & ambience is fun whether there's many people or not. Have never come here & not had a good time.
I love the vibe here! The food & service are amazing. The bartender Kevin was super kind & made my first experience at this bar very pleasant. Definitely a new go-to spot in this area.
Popped in on Monday night to be warmly greeted by Mitch. Took up residence at the bar, enjoyed a few pints & the juke box. It was a quiet evening so perfect to chat & catch up with friends. Thanks Mitch.
La serveuse a préféré continuer sa discussion avec sa collegue au lieu de venir prendre ma deuxième commande. J'ai attendu longtemps avant qu'elle vienne la prendre. Elle a du me redemander un élément essentiel a ma commande parce qu'elle avait oublié. Ensuite elle a oublié de me servir ma boisson expliquant que le pelisse au bar n'avait pas éboueurs sortie la bouteille du frigo. Mais elle n'a dit qu'elle s'empresserait juste pour moi .

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 😍
Makenzie est vraiment adorable. Ça peut être 1 point négatif, car elle donne envie de rester plus longtemps. Elle m'a fait goûter un shooter nommé Green Tea ... délicieux.
Les tacos aux crevettes sont irrésistibles, même quand on a pas l'appétit ! Suffit d'une bouchée & c'est parti!
The staff were very friendly & welcoming.
We were lucky enough to be there on a Saturday afternoon while they had an Irish music session happening. It was so lively.
