About

N sur Mackay functions as a lively hub for those seeking a straightforward pub experience centered on communal drinking and hearty comfort fare. The establishment prioritizes an unpretentious atmosphere where patrons gather for classic bar staples like crispy wings, loaded nachos, and artisanal burgers paired with a robust selection of draft beers. Exposed brick textures and dim lighting define the interior, creating an environment focused on casual social interaction rather than formal dining rituals. High-definition screens frequently display live sports matches to maintain a dynamic energy throughout the space. The menu emphasizes shareable plates designed for groups, while the drink list highlights local microbrews and standard spirit mixers. This venue serves as a functional neighborhood anchor for those prioritizing convenience and a consistent, no-frills social environment in a central urban setting.

In 2020, I was wondering around Montreal & stumbled into this small bar. Little did I know the would become the bar I would frequent on all my trips to Montreal. The atmosphere is laid back. The cocktails are tasty. The service is stellar. A special thanks to Sabrina who even went above & beyond in December when us out of towners needed it. Thank you N sur MacKay We will be back.

Great drinks - but the service was not good, sadly.
Very slow, very bored like we had interrupted their conversation by showing up. Quite uncomfortable unfortunately. Otherwise great vibe & decor...but this is the 3rd time we've come & the service was notably not good so i don't think we'll be back.

Cool vibes & tasty drink. If you want to go to a place where you can just drink & chat without super loud music, that is a very good place to go to!

Such a wonderful establishment. ❤️ Tried the Premiere of the signature Mocktail by Jasmine; Amaretto Amore (AA), Launching tomorrow at'N sur McKay' bar. For a little something sweet that even the salty, savory preferred patrons would love, you'll want to check this out. A hint of Chocolat Aztec Bitters, Amaretto & Coffee mix. Well done ✔️. #JDP3_official approved. Check out their listing on p. 79 of the Kaitlyn McGInnis guidebook, 111 places in Montreal that you must not miss. ISBN 978-3-7-7408-1721-3 Avail at the N bar 🍸 or online.

Feels like a neighborhood bar where everybody comes together to meet for a drink... & it was a Sunday. I felt like i intruded & the bartender was sassy as hell. The beer & tequilas shots was good though.
