I hadn't been in years, & I was glad I went back. We really enjoyed our time there. Our waitress was attentive & never rushed us. The drinks were nice, & the food was good. Not too loud so we could enjoy the conversation.

Only come for a few drinks before meeting up with friends, but the fried pickles are a must try! My husband had his reservations about it, but in the end he really liked them! I loved them, great service! Great atmosphere! Highly recommend!
Like always, Had an awesome time with friends at McKibbin's. The Bison Burger & a refreshing Harp hit the spot perfectly. Our waitress was fantastic & very friendly! We enjoyed great food, great drinks, & plenty of laughs. Highly recommend!
A lovely Irish experience, the food & drinks were delicious & you have some tasty choices. The service is meduim, but great friendly warm ambiance. Crazy music & bands in weekends.

The bartender was pleasant, & was very helpful guiding me which drink I should have. We sat at a table & ordered food. I ordered the spicy fried chicken & I asked to please place a tomato. I only found out once I received my bill they charged me $1.00.
When I asked the waiter he replied well when we buy groceries we need to charge people how do you think it works. I did not appreciate that! He never advised me it was an extra charge. I have never been charged for asking for a lettuce or tomato especially when it's a chicken sandwich. He was rude & I only asked a question.
I wouldn't go back.
Had a wonderful time drinking with friends & vibing to live music all night long!! Thank you to Ariel for the amazing service & hospitality! Definitely will be coming back! Cheers !

I went to McKibbin's Irish Pub in the West Island with some friends, & we had a great time. They have a solid beer selection-I tried the apricot beer, & it was really good, nice & refreshing. For food, I had the honey-cut fries, which were delicious, & everyone in my group enjoyed their meals as well.
There was a solo artist playing live music, & he was really talented. It added to the Irish pub atmosphere, but depending on where you're sitting, it can get pretty loud. some tables are right up to the stage, so if you're trying to have a conversation with friends, it might get a bid loud. Not a bad thing but something to be aware of. Overall, though, it's a great spot with good drinks, tasty food, & a fun vibe. I'd definitely go back!
I've been many times over the years & it's always a great experience. Good food with the drinks more reasonably priced than most places, friendly service & solid live music. Great spot

I rarely write negative reviews, but I was quite disappointed here. The food & service were certainly OK, but the quality of the food has gone way downhill (I've been coming here for literally decades but hadn't been back in almost 10 years). Furthermore, the prices are now extremely high. $200 for 2 ppl with 2 appetizers, one meal & a few drinks. Not worth it anymore in my opinion.
McKinnon Irish Pub is a fantastic spot that captures the true essence of a traditional Irish pub with a modern twist. The ambiance is warm & inviting, with a beautiful blend of rustic charm & contemporary touches. The staff here are not just attentive, but genuinely friendly, adding to the welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The food & drinks are top-notch, with a great selection of classic Irish dishes & perfectly poured pints. Whether you're stopping by for a quick drink or settling in for a hearty meal, McKinnon Irish Pub offers a delightful experience that's hard to beat. The combination of excellent service, delicious food, & a cozy setting makes this pub a true gem.
