Review Summary

Nyks Bistro Pub comes across as a bustling, welcoming Montreal spot with a solid pub menu, strong drinks, and attentive service, with many reviews praising flavorful dishes like duck confit poutine, mussels, steak, and burgers, plus standout desserts and thoughtful specials; the atmosphere blends a stylish urban pub with a comfortable dining vibe, though it can get loud and seating tight during peak times, and service quality can vary when very busy, but the overall impression is of good value, consistent quality, and a go-to place for drinks, quick bites, and lively evenings that feels like a hidden gem to locals and visitors alike.

Stopped here for lunch. I experienced good service during lunch & my Cesar was tasty & spicy as I like. Sadly I picked a special milk or cream ceviche dish that was pretty awful. If you see that running on the menu please skip it. Those flavors with lime just don't mix well together. Next time I'm in Montreal I'll give some of their standard fair another shot.

Le service y était attentionné, mais la cuisine était défectueuse malgré notre réservation. Un appel pour nous avertir aurait été apprécié compte tenu que nous avions un spectacle le soir même

Duck confit poutine was amazing. Plus the waitress of 20+ years had perfect recall evrrytime we ordered food in our party of 8!

Absolutely awesome! It's one of the coolest restaurants/bars I've ever been to. The space was super clean & inviting. The Duck Confit salad was incredible, as were all the beers we had. Staff were generally friendly. They were super quick & attentive. Will definitely be back next time I am back in Montreal

Their food is fantastic for a hang out bar. Went for preshow drinks, had their lobster roll, it was sizeable, the fries were crispy. Everyone else enjoyed their meal as well. It is a bit loud but we had a booth & we were able to talk. Probably want to make reservations if possible next time

I ordered the special bison burger. Single handedly the worst driest burger I have ever had. Beer was good service was good food was not good.

Standby near le Quartier des Spectacles. Good & varied menu, & generous portions. I just wish the patio was bigger, it's almost impossible to get space outside & the tables are small.

NYKS Pub is fantastic! The service is excellent, with incredibly kind staff. I had the onion soup, which was amazing, & my husband had the Dutch poutine-OMG, sooo good. This super cute pub has a great vibe & atmosphere. Plus, they have the best cocktails in Montreal. Highly recommend!

Wow, un vrai bistro pub avec des vrais prix de bistro pub & ce même si c'est ultra downtown. Service d'Audrey & Max au bar power rapide & très cordial. Le gravlax est généreux & frais tout comme la salade de canard. Incroyable d'avoir trouvé un endroit aussi chouette dans un Cartier Des Spectacles aussi surpeuplé. Merci gang !

3.5 stars . Located near me I figured I would give this place a shot for dinner. I ordered the tartare of the moment & it was beef. Good enough but lacked a bit of oophm. My boyfriend got the burger with bacon & cheese but the cheese was not melted so it looked overall cold, he said the taste was alright. The fries & side salad were really good in my opinion! So next time I think I'll try the poutine. The service was great & friendly! I recommend reserving in advance because the place is a bit small & it fills up quick!
