Un vrai bon spot au centre-ville pour passer une soirée entre amis ! L'ambiance est conviviale & détendue, avec un décor classique de pub irlandais très chaleureux. L'été, une petite terrasse permet de profiter du beau temps, & à l'intérieur on retrouve deux étages : le rez-de-chaussée pour boire & manger, & un étage avec des tables de billard pour prolonger la soirée.
Les girafes de bière sont offertes à très bon prix, la bière est bonne & je ne manque jamais l'occasion de m'y arrêter pour savourer un délicieux Black Velvet quand je suis dans le coin.
Le service est toujours au rendez-vous : rapide, courtois & sympathique. Côté nourriture, on reste dans une cuisine de bar : simple, savoureuse, avec des portions généreuses & des prix honnêtes. Ce n'est pas un restaurant gastronomique, mais c'est toujours bon & satisfaisant.
Une adresse que je recommande chaleureusement pour boire un verre, jouer au billard & profiter d'un bon moment entre amis au centre-ville, sans se ruiner.

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.

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!

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!

Our last day in Montreal & we were looking for a pub for some food & atmosphere. McLeans's Pub did not disappoint. The staff were overly welcoming & helpful with suggestions on food. The atmosphere was exactly what we wanted for a pub night out. I would recommend McLean's Pub for anyone looking for a great night out.

Great pub fare. Close to Bell Centre for before & after games with little to no wait. Highly recommend this spot! Kat served us, she was superb. We went back 2 days in a row because service & atmosphere was exceptional. THANK YOU KAT YOU ROCK!
Emmanuelle
Le pub est très agréable. Les plats & boissons variées. Je ne mets que 4 étoiles car cela peut être extrêmement bruyant parfois (soir de match). Je recommande pour l'ambiance & le service !

Mon ami & moi avons été mangé avant le match des canadiens. Lambiance est bonne, le service rapide & courtois, mais la nourriture est ordinaire. Ça pris seulement 10 minutes & on était servis. Pour prendre un verre & manger rapidement avant un match de hockey ou un spectacle, je recommande.
Q
We initially tried to dine at Maison Publique McLean, but a friendly staff member let us know that their kitchen had closed & kindly directed us to their sister property, McLean Pub, just a few blocks away. When we arrived at McLean Pub, the place was packed due to a UFC night. Despite the crowd, we mentioned to the doorman that we were sent over from Maison McLean, & he graciously made an exception, finding us a spot. He did warn us about the noise & the fact that the kitchen was about to close soon, but we decided to stay. The service was impressively fast & efficient, especially given how busy they were. On top of that, the food was fantastic. I have to say, they serve the best buffalo wings I've ever had! The whole vibe of the place was fun & lively, adding to the overall great experience. Highly recommend McLean Pub for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, & a unique, energetic atmosphere.

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!

We were a group of 12 dudes cruising / predrinking before bachelor party shenanigans ended up at Mclean's . We watched game 6 Stanley cup finals upstairs.to start , location of Mclean's is unreal . In the heart of the city!! The service : Huge shout out to the bar staff upstairs - Steph & Tim were absolutely swamped but managed to juggle multiple large groups along with many smaller groups & keep the service top notch . They were proactive & helpful when it came to drink request & food request . Other staff member up there were helpful with clean up as well . Great job to all the staff for sure! Food quality : top notch . I had chicken wings & burger ... delicious ! Kudos to the chef !! Price point : extremely fair . Was expecting to pay a premium for the drinks I was ordering & to my surprise it was lower then anticipated ! Atmosphere : it was great . We played pool, watched the game , good music I highly recommend this place . Thank you mcleans pub . Steph thank you , service was exceptional!

Our hotel concierge recommended this as a good place to grab a drink. We sat at the bar & were greeted & taken good care of by Greg. I told him I like bourbon but didn't know what I wanted so after a little chat he created a cocktail for me - which was delicious & should be on the menu! We enjoyed our cocktails & talking to Greg who was very friendly & helpful! Food looked good but we weren't terribly hungry so just shared some sweet potato fries.
Christopher
Wonderful, old pub. Great atmosphere. The butter chicken poutine was excellent. Highly recommended for a casual afternoon visit.

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