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.
Server was so attentive. Harp beer on tap & nice & cold. Rustic decor indicates a well used & well loved facility. Nice place to have a quick pint. Centrally located to downtown.
McLean's is hands down one of the best bars in Montreal, & without question one of the top places in the entire city to watch sports. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere just feels right. The beer is always ice cold, consistently poured perfectly, & exactly what you want whether you're stopping by casually or settling in for a full game night.
The staff deserve special mention - they are genuinely some of the friendliest people you'll find anywhere. Always welcoming, attentive without being overbearing, & clearly happy to be there. That positive energy really sets the tone & makes McLean's such an easy place to relax & enjoy yourself.
The environment itself is fantastic: great music playing, a lively but comfortable crowd, & a space that always feels clean & well taken care of - including the bathrooms, which are spotless (something that definitely doesn't go unnoticed). The food is also excellent, with solid options that pair perfectly with a few beers & keep you fueled through a long game or night out.
& when the game is on, McLean's truly shines. The atmosphere becomes next level - energetic, engaged, & electric without being chaotic. You can tell everyone is there for the same reason: to enjoy the game, the company, & the vibe. Screens everywhere, great sightlines, & a crowd that actually reacts to what's happening makes it an unbeatable sports-watching experience.
All around, McLean's delivers every single time - cold beer, great food, amazing staff, & a welcoming, upbeat environment. If you're looking for a top-tier sports bar in Montreal, this place isn't just good - it's one of the very best in the city.
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.
