Review Summary

McKibbins Irish Pub offers a classic Irish pub experience with a beautiful historic setting, warm and welcoming staff, and a lively atmosphere that shines on busy nights. The beer selection, especially Guinness, is described as fresh and satisfying, with happy hours and a broad range of drinks that attract regulars. Food is consistently praised for pub fare and large portions, with wings and fries, bison burger and shepherds pie mentioned positively, though a few reviews note price levels. Comedy and live music are standout draws, with Monday and Tuesday shows and a club vibe upstairs adding to the overall enjoyment. While some reviews mention cleanliness concerns, occasional price quirks on late night menus, and rare issues with seating or noise, the collective impression is a go-to spot for a good night out in Montreal. The venue's multiple ambiences, from intimate bar seating to a back terrace and upstairs performance space, make it a versatile hangout for sports, dining and entertainment.

Had the ghost pepper wings & had an out of body experience eating them lol! Glad I tried them (by'them', I mean just one), & be warned, they're insanely hot. Fantastic pub & great eats. Lovely staff, too. :-)

Had an amazing time, my boyfriend & I were laughing the whole show! Really recommend to anyone in Montreal. Also we left our shopping bag there by mistake & they didn't steal it so they get bonus points. Will be back!

Fun spot to watch some sports while downing some pints. Bartender James was busy but on point for everyone. There's even comedy on Mondays at 8p. Get it!

Terrible. We went into an Irish Bar & had to ask for a drink. Table service was extremely slow with ample staff so we went to the bar to ask for a drink which we were denied & told to ask our server. Lol what a joke. Got a shotty poured Guinness & decided it leave. Considering how well w e have been treated on our trip to Montreal I was extremely disappointed for a highly rated Irish pub . Nice terrace on the back side & the doorman was very friendly Guess they don't need our business. Sad. ☘?

We went for comedy & nearly peed our pants! Maybe because there was no intermission, but mostly because the acts were funny.

Montréal is not a city known for its Irish pubs, which is a shame because there is a lot of Irish history running through these streets.

McKibbons is an exception to that reality. It has beautiful decor, friendly staff, & most importantly, DELICIOUS 👏& 👏affordable👏pub👏 food.

That's right folks, not only is this some of the best pub food you'll find in Montréal, the prices are beyond fair especially considering its downtown.

Check it out, get literally anything on the menu & I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Oh & a beautiful terrace in back during the warmer months.

Shoutout to Jasmine who served my partner & I on our last visit!

Great experience. I arrived early & they took some time to clear up the table for me but the service was excellent. We were served by Hannah & she was the best. They didn't have a lot of whiskey selections but beer menu seems pretty good! We had a lot of fun & danced to the live music a little near the end of the night!

Drinks are good & so is the food. The only reason why this rating is low is because my friends & I went to the downstairs area, after being upstairs for about an hour. While my friends & I were waiting for our ride, my friends took my phone to look at something. So while they had my phone, I put my head in my hands & was close to the table because I was admiring the art on the wall, because honestly the pictures & signs are pretty cool. HOWEVER, a security guard came up to me & aggressively tapped me on the arm & yelled'You can't sleep here!!!' & when I tried to explain that I wasn't sleeping, he walked away mid-sentence. Then, a few minutes later, after being embarrassed, a waiter comes up, annoyed & says we have to order something & we say water please, & they walked away still annoyed. We can tell we didn't feel welcomed there. (The only reason why there is two stars, & not one, is because the people in the upstairs area were really friendly & nice).
