Came here for the Habs game & the place erupted when there was a goal. This is playoff hockey & this was a great spot to watch an away game. Great service, pub fare that you expect & a great atmosphere for a chill evening. Definitely come here for a beer & a Habs game!

What a great atmosphere for a playoff game. I got there early & had a lovely meal - good pub food. I picked the plate clean. On days like that, you may not find a seat if you don't go early. Guiness was delicious, as were the Jamesons. Service was excellent from the bartender & he was busy. 10/10 would go for a beer or a game again if I'm in town.

Large selection of draft beer, solid pub food, tons of screens to watch the game & it's only a hop, skip & a jump from the bell center! (Try the butter chicken poutine. Epic!!)

Good Irish pub. Food is ok & ambience as well. Veggie burger was quite good & they have a big selection of beer & alcohols. Nice little terrace at the front. The server , Katrina, outstanding 5/5 !

I hate to say it but the food was awful. Bacon poutine wasn't good & I swear they microwaved the pizza & poutine. Food was at our table in about 3-4 mins. Pizza takes longer than that. It was so chewy & rubbery.
The atmosphere was good. The bartenders were great. I liked the large beers. I just would not eat there again.
Sorry

Good Guinness, decent chicken sandwich but don't order the fish & chips. For a'English Pub' the fish was so over battered that it was raw where it was touching the fish. The waitress had stopped by the table to ask how we were enjoying our food but never looked at me, or waited for me to respond & I had to get her attention after. When explaining my disappointment, her response was'I don't eat the fish & chips because it has too much batter'. Not the conversion I expected to have & not the experience I've had at any other pub I've been to. I returned more than half the dish & explained that I was not interested in a replacement, that being said I would have hoped for a discount on that item. Had they even given me $5 off I would have given a better rating.
If you want to watch a game & drink a beer, stop by here & then go eat somewhere else.

Ready Set Meh.
Good place to grab beer but don't expect much if you're hungry. Fish & chips had very thick almoat pastry like breading. Fries were ok. Hubby had hot dog poutine. Gravy was good. Very little hot dog. Friendly service.
