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.

We went to McKibbins to see a comedy show & the whole experience was great!

The people are welcoming & friendly. The MC was hilarious.

We didn't try all the appetizing food that is on the menu. We did try the nachos & they were delicious. The only disappointment was there was no Guiness beer available. Bummer! However I tried the Irish red they had & it was good.
We will definitely go back..

This sports bar is everything a true fan needs. They offer a comprehensive range of pay channels-at least all the ones I could think of-which ensures you won't miss a game. The service is both friendly & efficient, & the beer selection is excellent. I especially enjoyed their onion soup-a real standout dish. With its vibrant atmosphere, this is the place in Montreal to catch a game, or even two!

Even if the crowd is mostly older people, it is a great spot for anyone especially with the live music. It is a must for everyone in Montreal.

It's good that there are multiple ambiences in the bar. I was on the 3rd floor & the music was weirdly mixed & very loud. I was with friends, so it was ok, but music could be better (at least in the 3rd)

The food was good, we really enjoyed the popcorn shrimps next to our drinks but the music was really loud & we had hard time hearing each other.

An Irish pub in a university town near McGill University. The atmosphere realy brings you to Irish… at the least the Irish I imagine.

The poutine is too salty, but great fires, so I will just order fries next time. They have limited selection of local beers, otherwise lots of differentdeinks to offer. I would like to see more local craft beers in the future!
It's also a bit pricey. One poutine plus one beer coated me $35 in total. This will make me think twice going again.

Loved the music, mostly songs we didn't hear for a long time from the 80s & 90s & the full vibe with live concert if you're into that. Great place where we can talk intimately with friends with some nice beer selections. It's easily a favorite Irish pub in Montreal.

I have been eating bison burgers & drinking Guinness at this bar for over 10 years. They have a great selection of both Irish beer & food. The live music & comedy shows are always a great experience. The only thing I recommend customers avoid are the chicken wings, it's not worth the free T-shirt.

Great Irish pub. Came on a random recommendation while looking for food, was expecting just fine, but was genuinely surprised by the quality. My partner had stew & I had a beef dip, & both were excellent. Nails the pub vibe without overdoing it, will be back.
