McKibbins on Bishop is the original, &, in my opinion, the best location of this beloved Irish pub, & it's my go-to spot in Montréal for a good pint of Guinness. Housed in a beautiful turn-of the century mansion, it serves solid pub fare (don't miss the wings or the chips with curry sauce) in a lively, traditional setting. Swing by on Monday nights for the weekly comedy show upstairs(in English) & be sure to grab a seat toward the back unless you want to become part of the act! Come St. Patrick's Day, the entire place is packed from top to bottom, making it the city's marquee venue for the holiday.
Sláinte!
So I have come to Mckibbins twice this trip. Once to support Bar Star & then tonight.
Saturday night was amazing & the service was top notch.
I went in tonight to grab a bite to eat, & when I got the late night menu it said that 6 wings were 12 dollars according to the menu & inlcuded fries from what i read at no extra. I was charged 16 dollars for the wings that come with fries, a carrot & two small celery sticks & just over 10 for 2 pops.
Getting charged a different price than menu price is extremely annoying. I tipped because 1. It's what you do for the servers & cook, & 2 because of the service on Saturday. But please correct your prices rather than surprising customers were a 4 dollar extra charge which came as a surprise since I thought I was gonna spend 20 instead of 30.
Edit: Additionally the late night wings are small, while for their size they have a decent amount of meat, for how much I paid that wasn't worth the price.

I went to Montreal on a business trip last week. Whenever I go to a new city I look up what the spiciest food available is & get it. In this case, I kept seeing the rim reaper wings at McKibbin's come up.
There were two sizes, 6 wings for'the curious' & 12 for the challenge.
I usually end up underwhelmed but not this time. When I got the wings, honestly they didn't look that impressive, looked just like regular buffalo wing sauce. Ate one wing. It was pretty spicy, & actually it had a really good flavor.
If I hadn't gotten the 12 wings, I would have been satisfied with six. After 8, I felt a gut punch. This is actually one of the best parts of it. When I've gotten it before, it usually happens a few hours after a challenge. So the wings & my body were letting me know before it's too late that I'm going to be having a bad time later if I continue. Knowing you're going to feel bad later is sort of an abstract concept, but that gut punch brought back some vivid memories.
I sat there for a bit, deciding whether I wanted to try to power through the last four, or give up. I have a plane to catch in the morning, I don't want to be sick while I'm dealing with that.
The pub was not too far from my hotel. I came on foot which wasn't bad, & I left on foot, which was. Every step was just making everything in there slosh around. It got to where I couldn't walk, I had to go into an alleyway & just sat on the ground breathing for a bit, unable to move. I didn't know how I was going to make it back. But after sitting still for a bit I managed to recover enough to make it the rest of the way. Once I got into my room I just laid on the bed sweating. I was thirsty, but the only thing to drink was water out of the bathroom faucet, & I couldn't justify moving just for that. Eventually I fell asleep.
I woke up some time later in the early morning, &... it was like nothing happened. I was really glad about that. I've never had the capsaicin fever in an airplane toilet & I don't ever want to.
So all in all, a worthwhile challenge that actually tastes good too. If I find myself back in Montreal I will have to make arrangements & try again... or maybe just get six.
A great atmosphere Irish pub. They have on the menu - unfortunately, only on the menu anymore - a challenge for their Guineiniss record book hot wings. Dear management: please, either make it worth it & give some reward for the challenge or remove the challenge from the menu.
Anyways, the Guinness record book hot wings were really good. Very hot spicy, but tasty spicy & good too. I'd highly recommend trying it. They have live music during the evening.
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. :-)
We tried the rim reaper challenge but just the six wings. But couldn't finish them..We went as a group of 4 to try the spice level, but at the end there are 2 more wings left, it was extremely spicy..
Great place to see a hockey match. I recommend to arrive early to catch a table. The potato soup is a must & of course the chicken wings. If you are like spicy, the spicy sauce it's good, not so spicy but it helps.
They say that at 10 pm a group plays & it gets even better so I'll have to come back.

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.
McKibbin's is an institution here in Montreal. I have been coming here for 20 years & have so many fond memories of nights out here. The atmosphere is lively & they often have live music. Even more remarkable is that they are one of the few places in the city that seems to offer happy hour specials. That seems like a rarity in 2024. I generally find the quality of the food to be consistent. They have your standard pub fare & for the most part it is usually satisfying. If you are courageous you can always try their famous Reaper wing challenge but be warned those are some very spicy wings. McKibbin's is a great option if you are looking for a pub in downtown Montreal. You're bound to have a great time while you're there.
Went there yesterday with colleagues. I took the Rim Reaper Challenge. Those wings are from hell. I'm used to eat spicy food but this his beyond spicy. My saliva was still hot last night ;-)
On a culinary critique, those wings are undercooked. Meat still attached too firmly to the bones....
On the beer side, Murphy's all you need to know. Taste a Guiness, taste a Murphy's & most of you will return to the later.
