I have never been to a bar in Montreal that has given such terrible service. We kept being ignored for drinks & the servers forgot our food after we had talked to both of them & they had even confirmed the order twice. After asking multiple times the waitress admitted she forgot but then by the time we got our food they did not even bring it all & we had to wait almost an hour for them to come back. The fries I got were stale & all small like it was leftovers & while we were waiting we could see both servers chatting & visiting behind the bar. We barely were checked up on all evening & had to flag them down to get a drink. I'm frustrated we even had to pay full price for cold food & waiting nearly an hour to be served & even having our order admittedly forgotten. The overall experience made felt dismissive & made us feel unwelcome by the staff. I don't recommend anyone go here especially with the location there are better options with much better service & food that's actually fresh & hot

Went with a couple friends. Waitress came twice in 5 minutes to get drink orders which is ok but then once an hour to take food order & to get water, but came right away when we asked to pay. Got sweet hammy tasted good but overpriced for what you get, it was just a hot dog with toppings & too much bread for about 10$ & small jar drink for 10.25. Not going back. The menus were so scratched up could barely read. Also got carded by bouncer after he saw us drink our cocktails & when we told him we showed the waitress, he said'she's not the boss'. It's not worth going.
Came here to watch an NFL game, have some drinks & eat some pub food. The Moose Bawr did not disappoint. The game was on the TV, the drinks were reasonably priced, & the food was better than expected. I recommend this place for a casual night or game day.
Expérience décevante. Certaines boissons ne sont jamais arrivées après la commande. De plus, le TPE était hors service & nous n'avons pas été prévenus en amont. Ainsi, au moment du paiement, nous devions payer cash (un ATM était disposé dans l'établissement pour retirer de l'argent, avec frais bien sûr). Suite à cela nous avons décidé de fournir un pourboire faible à l'image de la qualité du service proposé, ce à quoi le gérant s'est mis à crier sur notre groupe, ce qui est absolument inadmissible. Je rappelle que le pourboire est à l'image du service proposé & non acquis par défaut. Je ne recommande pas.

Watched the Blue Jays win world series game 1 there. Great night. A server helped us find a seat when we thought there were none. English speaking, no attitude, great vibe.
An old school bar with old rock & roll playing & large glasses of icy cold draft beer being sold at a reasonable price. I didn't have any of the food. Maybe next time.
