McLean's est devenu un bar et restaurant emblématique du centre-ville de Montréal avec son atmosphère authentique de pub irlandais. McLean's propose une large gamme de plats alimentaires et une large sélection de bières importées et nationales. Le décor de style pub du McLean offre le cadre idéal pour profiter des derniers événements sportifs sur l'une des nombreuses télévisions par satellite grand écran situées tout autour du bar. À l'étage, vous pourrez participer à une partie amicale de billard ou simplement vous asseoir et profiter de la compagnie de bons amis.
Dans l’ensemble, McLean's Pub apparaît comme un endroit animé du centre-ville, où l’ambiance chaleureuse réunit boissons, sport et cuisine de pub décontractée dans un cadre détendu. Le personnel est régulièrement sympathique et attentif, ce qui aide à maintenir une énergie positive même lorsque le pub est bondé. La sélection de bières est solide et variée, souvent décrite comme bien fraîche et bien servie, avec des classiques de pub comme le fish and chips et la poutine fréquemment mentionnés. Le lieu propose deux étages, une salle de billard et de nombreuses ecrans pour les matchs, et une localisation centrale qui facilite les visites avant ou après les événements. Des espaces propres et accueillants et une ambiance conviviale ajoutent au charme, les visiteurs notant une énergie chaleureuse qui convient aussi bien aux habitués qu’aux nouveaux venus. Bien que certains commentaires remettent en question l’authenticité du vibe irlandais, l’expérience globale se distingue par l’animation, le service et les boissons et plats fiables.
We stopped into McLean's Pub because my fiancé loves a good Irish pub, & even though it was a random, quiet afternoon, it ended up being such a memorable stop.
We ended up chatting with our bartender, Angie, & she was truly the best. We had just gotten engaged the day before, & she went out of her way to celebrate with us, she even wrote us a handwritten list of her favorite local recommendations. We had a few amazing dinners thanks to her list!
She made us feel so welcomed & genuinely excited, & it ended up being one of the first places we got to celebrate our engagement. Such a special experience thanks to her.

Nous avions un match du Canadiens en soirée & avions convenu, mon groupe d'amis & moi, d'arriver tôt en pm pour passer du bon temps au Pub Mcleans situé à proximité du Centre Bell. Premièrement, l'endroit est très charmant. Étant fréquenté par de nombreux fans du Canadien, nous pouvions sentir la camaraderie qui régnait à l'intérieur. Ensuite, la nourriture était succulente & goûteuse. Coups de coeur : l'entrée de champignons panés à la Labatt 50 & le repas de fish n chips. Pour finir, je lève mon verre à notre fort sympathique serveuse qui a été patiente, souriante & rapide malgré le nombre clients élevés sur place. À une prochaine visite!
Love the vibe at McLean's Pub. Always a great energy, super friendly staff, & the perfect spot to grab drinks & hang out. Easy, fun, & always a good time!
As someone that is Irish, from Boston & has been to an authentic Irish pub this restaurant utterly confused me. McLeans claims to be an Irish pub but one look at the menu told me different. No Irish staples like bangers & mash, Shepard's pie, corned beef, lamb, etc. Just average pub food. A little disappointing to eat at on St Pattys Day. On a positive note the food came out very quick & staff was friendly, had plenty of screens to watch games & met other customers & had very friendly conversations with them. Decent place to grab pub food before hockey games - just not Irish pub food
I want to thank McLean's for the wonderful experience!
I came on the 10th of January for my birthday with my family. My dad came in earlier in the day & asked if it would be possible to reserve a spot for our large group as it was my birthday.
The waitress (i forget her name now but I believe her name started with an S) was incredibly accommodating & made an exception for us despite them not usually doing that on game days.
Upon arriving she was incredibly welcoming, wished me a happy birthday & made the experience a great one.
The food & drinks were great, & the vibe was AMAZING! What an incredible place to spend an evening before a Habs game, & what a wonderful team of staff members that make all customers feel welcome.
Thank you for making my birthday the most memorable one yet!
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.

Came to Montreal for the first time to see a Bruins game & so happy we found Mclean's pub! It was awesome vibe & our waitress Alicia was amazing! She was our concierge with place to go & see. Solid atmosphere & service was GREAT
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!
Steps away for our hotel (Montreal Marriott Chateau Champlain). Stumbled past & poked our head in. Sooooo glad we did! What a great place for food, drinks, sports, music. Sorry Peel Pub - Mcleans is now'The spot to go' in Montreal. A special thanks to (no particular order- Ricardo, Stephanie, Nes & Kyle. Thanks to the owners for having such wonderful staff. We will be back for sure!
Thank you
Alan & Maria
Dernière soirée à Montréal au McLean's après le concert de Linkin Park au Centre Bell : on aurait pas pu mieux tomber ! Possibilité de choisir sa musique, vaste choix de bières, prix tout à fait corrects, bonne cuisine… Mention spéciale à Nes (j'espère que je n'écorche pas ton nom) qui a été au top avec nous toute la soirée. 👌

Cool pub. Has kind of an Irish pub feel. Server was great.
Pretty decent selection of beers which seems to be unusual in Montréal for some reason. For example, multiple IPAs whereas a lot of places seem to have just a couple. & often, the servers don't seem to know much about the beers. In Mcleans' case, the server was knowledgeable.
Really liked the fish & chips. Mainly the fish part. Chips were ok.
Doesn't look like much from the street but decent inside.
Prices were competitive with what I've seen elsewhere.
Price for three IPAs, fish & chips & a small pizza was about $70 US.
You gotta go & look into the men's restroom downstairs. The urinals are made from old beer kegs. Something to see. Surprisingly functional. Ladies, the men's room is down the hall past the women's restroom. Be careful. The door was wide open & you could get quite a view.
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.
To start with I got there around noon. The staff Stava, Baisa, Bobby, Shane, Cici, Luke, & regular patron Eric were so inviting. I'm from the States & 1st time to Canada & Montreal. The people I met casually at McLeans & staff treated Emma n myself like family. So good..... instead of Jazz n Jamaican festival we stayed 12 hours. One of the best times in my life traveling. Will return for sure!

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!
Last week, my colleagues & I went to Mclean's after our restaurant & the one next door had a fire. We went in, & they greeted us in such a warm way. They constantly filled up our water glasses, gave us coffee & nachos on the house. That warm gesture really touched me because they could've simply told us'buy something or you can't sit here'. People like that remind me that there is still a sense of community in this cold world. Thank you to all the employees for their kindness.
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.
Stav was the absolute best! Took care of us & the whole bar & restaurant. Great experience! If you visit Montreal don't leave without visiting McLeans Pub!
