Review Summary

Across reviews, McLean's Pub comes across as a lively downtown spot with a welcoming vibe where drinks, sports and casual pub fare come together in a relaxed setting. The staff are consistently friendly and attentive, helping to keep the energy upbeat even when busy. The beer selection is solid and varied, often described as cold and well poured, with crowd pleasers like fish and chips, poutine and other bar classics frequently mentioned. The venue features two levels, a pool table, plenty of screens for games, and a central location that makes it easy to drop in before or after events. Clean, well kept spaces and a convivial, social atmosphere add to the appeal, with guests noting a mix of energy and warmth that makes it feel welcoming to both regulars and newcomers. While a few reviews question the authenticity of the Irish pub vibe, the overall experience shines through in the lively crowd, good service and dependable food and drinks.

Traditional Irish Pub. We had fish & chips & a beer. Everything was good. Great atmosphere. Our server appeared to be working alone. 6-8 parties came in just after we did. She really hustled & got everyone served with a smile. Reasonable prices

Stopped at this pub for drinks & was not disappointed. The cider was pretty good & the waitress recommended a great beer for my friend.

Maclean’s Pub is a fantastic spot! They have billiards on the second floor, which adds a fun dimension to your visit. The service was top-notch, & it's a great place to unwind with a beer. While the music can get a bit loud, it contributes to the vibrant ambiance. Situated on a bustling street, the presence of security at the door gives a sense of safety that's reassuring. I would wholeheartedly recommend it & look forward to returning for more enjoyable evenings.

Nice old rambling pub to in Montreal. Very friendly staff & interesting view from the patio with Dorchester Square park right across the street. Convenient to the metro stations & St Catherine St.

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.
