This one is a tricky review. I went there looking for a sports bar with the Habs & the Jays ALCS game 7 on the TVs. I was welcomed & seated at a great table with views of both games. Service was excellent & very accommodating (downstairs). I decided to move upstairs where they had the Jays game on full time with audio. There was NO service upstairs. It was self serve bar only with one bartender who was head down & scrolling when I went to get a beer. Most people (a packed house) had empty drinks, empty plates, etc. The wings were great, & atmosphere was very fun. But there was no service upstairs. The staff member who was wearing a black t-shirt & clearing tables was the hardest working guy there & deserves tips.

McLean's holds a special place in my heart!
I was there Sunday night receiving perfect pours of Guinness from Ricardo. A bartender serves drinks. A good bartender serves people! He was the perfect host & kept community front & centre. Great bar with great staff & great patrons alike! Will be back!

I am a little late with the following comments & well-wishes, nonetheless, I am writing in order to express my sincere gratitude to Dave & Nes, both bartenders & all -around good guys at McLean's Pub located at 1210 Peel Street in Montreal. I was in a bind. Thirteen friends of mine were in town ready to watch the final games of the EPL season-May 25, 2025-with a real focus on the Chelsea v. Nottingham game. All of the places suitable to watch the game could not accommodate such a crowd when I came to them, the day before (not my fault), seeking to make a reservation for 14. I went to McLean's & made a request for a reservation, expecting yet another rejection. Much to my surprise, Dave & Nes, were friendly & professional in the way that they handled my time-sensitive request. They understood the importance of football as central to family & friends coming together. They took care of the logistics & were able to hook it up & get us a table.
In short, we had a great time. Dave was great at quickly quenching the group's thirst & ensuring more than adequate sustenance. Couldn't have asked for better guys to help out. Food, drink & service-all excellent. Dave & Nes are the primary reason I continue to visit the location when friends are in town. I highly recommend McLean's with a special emphasis on the service Dave & Nes provided for a'proper' viewing of football games-EPL or otherwise. Cheers to them for their courtesies.

Brenna (Beans) was the best bartender/server ever! We had a great time with the juke box & free pool! Awesome food as well! 10/10
Matthew
Great stop for a pint & excellent food. Staff were friendly. Gentleman behind the bar has great taste in music, the female bartender was kind & considerate. Would recommend for anyone interested in Canadian vibes dipped in Irish sentiment!

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!
Shelby
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!

Samantha
I love McLeans so much, me & my friends go there on a weekly basis! Such a great vibe, bartenders are super friendly & provide great/fast service! Only thing is the pool tables, a lot of our friends come here to play pool but the machine can get jammed sometimes & eat the money...I still come here every week because I know it'll be a fun night but upping the prices for a pool table that doesn't even work that well, the pocket for example has been broken for a few months now, otherwise it's great but makes it a little disappointing.

Where do you begin Service was horrendous! They seemed too busy having a good time in the service area to come serve us. When she did finally serve us, drinks took another 15 minutes to arrive. Seems as though the bartender had more time to chat to guys at the bar than preparing drinks.
Finally returning to take our food order, another 10 minutes, her attitude was just bleh. We had already sucked up enough of this crap so we decided that hopefully the food would save this experience. OMG!! How much was i wrong about this. Chicken brochette. Bland & dry. Rice was old & had to have been reheated 3 or 4 times before we got it. Fish & chips. Oh my. I cannot believe they actually had the nerve to serve it. Should have been thrown the garbage. Chilli. The chilli. Awful.
After asking around I found out even worse things. I do not reccomend this establishment, for anything or any reason.
If you value your tastebuds & your digestive tract, you'll steer well clear of Mclean's pub.
