McKibbins Irish Pub delivers a warm, authentic Irish pub vibe with a solid drink list and hearty classics on the menu. Service is consistently friendly and efficient, with prompt seating and steady drink refills. The atmosphere is lively yet easygoing, perfect for catching a game or enjoying live music, while the crowd includes students, travelers and locals. Food and beer receive strong praise, from traditional stews and bangers and mash to fish and chips, with generous portions and satisfying flavors.
Food is always excellent & perfectly adapted with the ambiance & drinks. Service is good; if it's really busy it's ok, but it's never bad. I have a lot of good memorie at this place. Even the time I tryed to eat the most spicy chicken wing (so spicy you have to sign a discharge) & couldn't stop even if I felt my stomach turning. Yes there chiecken is THAT good! Don't worry they have regular chicken wings as well ;)
This bar has grown up-but hasn't lost its soul. I used to come here years ago, & now that it's moved to a bigger venue, I was curious to see if it still had that magic. It does.
No lineup outside, but inside it was packed. The live band was fantastic, playing high-energy covers that had the whole crowd singing along. The atmosphere was loud, joyful, & full of life-perfect for a night out with friends or just letting loose. Lots of young people, dancing, mingling, & yes, a bit of bumping & grinding. It's a party spot, no doubt.
Despite the crowd, service was quick & friendly. The staff kept things moving with a smile. Great place to grab a pint, belt out some tunes, & soak in the vibrant energy. Bigger space, same heart. I'll definitely be back.
This is my new go-to pub after years of going to that other pub on Prince Arthur. Their menu includes many pub favourites including an excellent Irish stew & their beer selection has my St. Ambroise Cream Ale. The playlist is great, lots of rock classics.
