Great food. If you like a racous atmosphere, this is the place for you. Poutine with duck confit was great, as were the churros with caramel sauce.

J'ai commandé un virgin ceasar, une entrée tapenade de tomate & basilic & les parppadelles au champignons Pour le virgin ceasar, javais demander un virgin(sans alcool)& il m'a apporté un bloody (avec alcool). Une chance que je lui ai redemander quand il me l'a apporté parce que sinon je l'aurais bu & je n'aurais pas pu conduire. Aussi, je n'en est jamais bu d'aussi salé! Pour l'entrée, il y a salé...& il y a SALÉ! Je serais pas étonné de faire une pierre au rein après ca! Cetait beaucoup trop intense, à un point tel que le pain ne couvrait pas le goût. Ca en devenait écoeurant. Pour le repas , c'était bon

I was followed by someone for a while while walking back home late at night & came in this bar for safety & the staff was super helpful, gave me a glass of water & led me trough the back door so I could get back on my way home safely! You guys made my night so much better! Will definitely come back for an actual drink!

Sorry but we were underwhelmed by NYCS. We stopped in on a Friday & sat at the bar. We were told we'd have to leave in a short while as the bar seats were reserved. That's was new to us. We quickly ordered calamari & drinks. While the beer was good, the wine glass had at most 3 ounces. & when the calamari came, it was flavorful but tough. We bolted never to return.

This pub was such a charming & laid-back spot to relax, with such a cozy vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly, making us feel welcome, & the overall atmosphere was fantastic. Whether we were enjoying a drink or just soaking in the ambiance, it was the perfect place to unwind. We loved spending time there during our two nights in Montreal!

Burger à éviter, la viande est trop cuite & sèche, plutôt décevant pour un prix exagéré. Service ok, ce serait plus délicat de ne pas regarder par dessus l'épaule pendant le paiement c'est vraiment désagréable (1 bière, une entrée partagée & un burger partagé)

Went after Schoenberg Concert 9/11/24 w/ my older brother Bob had fantastic fish & chips @ 11PM on a Wed Nite ... we were prob the oldest dudes in the place! Felt like eating with our grad student grandchildren from McGill University! Beautiful young crowd, music, & life in Old Montreal! One of the highlights of our trip after the phenomenal art & music @ Place d'Art Symphony Fantastic... would love to go again with more family & friends!

One of my favourite spots in Montreal. Location would suggest it's touristy but far from. Great specials. Good service. Fun atmosphere

We were greeted & promptly sat down with a dual menu. Delightful. My travel buddy & I had wine & I had a burger while she had a steak & both were delightful. Its lovely to sit next to the old garage door & watch the world walk by. Recommend the atmosphere as the music was not too loud & employees were friendly. Food did not take long to come out. Would go back again.
