Came for the food, stayed for the vibes!

The bacon poutine? Next level amazing. We tried the butter chicken pizza too--sounds wild, tastes awesome.

Kudos to Angie the bartender--super friendly, made us feel like regulars, & had some top-tier drink & food recs.

Also... Kilkenny on tap. I'm obsessed. Pretty sure I could take down a whole keg solo (don't test me).

Awesome spot, killer service, & just a good time all around. Can't wait to come back!

Not my favorite bar in Montreal. It's good to watch a game but that's it. Atmosphere is meh & the service is passable.

I wouldn't come back unless I don't have another option to watch a game.

They do have a decent selection of beers on tap tho

I was in Montreal for a day & stopped in at McLean's for an early lunch. It was a weekday & I was the first patron. Warmly greeted by the gal behind the bar. Ordered the bacon poutine (DEFO!!) & 911 wings. A definite do over, would highly recommend!

Best Irish pub in Montréal. Had the honour to visit this lovely gem of a pub in the middle of January this year. Wonderful staff & a really cosy bar with welcoming regulars. A special shout out to the bar lady Kristy who made you feel like a regular the moment you sat down on the barstool!

Perfect pub atmosphere. Football was on, dim lighting, good beer. Bartender was friendly, as well as some of the regulars.
You'll wanna try the chilli dog- it's delicious.
Watch out for the beers though, some of the prices can sneak up on ya.

Stopped by last night on our way through & I'm so glad we did! Not only was it a cute little place but our bartender Brenna was phenomenal! She was incredibly personable & it felt like speaking to an old friend! Not to mention she pours a mean Guinness! Will definitely be back to see her!

A mix of student/sports bar. Service is ok. Gets pretty busy & has poor ventilation. Food is what you would expect. Overall a good place to catch the fight.

Good venue & location, average food...ate better elsewhere, table service terrible...only one person covering whole front of house...the poor lass was run off her feet, needed support from bar or a second server. After we were served, at least 2 other groups sat then left due to excessive wait to be served. No tip ❎

A great Irish bar in town. It's been around for many years. They have their regulars, they have a nice terrace, a two-story bar, food is available, TVs if you want to watch sports. I'd recommend it!
