Pub Victoria comes through in reviews as a lively, welcoming pub with a vibrant atmosphere and a strong beer selection, where the terrace and rustic charm are regularly praised and the staff are described as friendly and attentive, making it a great spot for after work, casual meals, or private events. The place can be noisy at times but remains convivial and well laid out to avoid crowding, and the overall pricing is considered reasonable for the neighborhood. Food gets mixed signals: some diners highlight tasty options like poutine, fish and chips, and burgers, while others report uneven quality and dishes that do not meet expectations, with a few notes about long service times. Despite these inconsistencies, many reviews mention excellent service and a fun, engaging environment, including themed evenings and puzzle pint nights, with the feeling that the pub is a local gem worth returning to for drinks, atmosphere, and the chance to chat with staff and fellow patrons.
?If you find yourself in Montreal & feel the sudden, inexplicable urge to punish your arteries, Pub Victoria is the place to do it. I arrived as a confused tourist & left as a man who has seen the face of Canadian culinary madness-& liked it.
?I ordered the Poutine, a dish that looks like a high-speed collision between a potato farm & a dairy factory. It's a heap of fries smothered in a gravy so thick it could probably be used as engine oil, topped with'squeaky cheese' that sounds like a frantic mouse every time you take a bite. There were chunks of meat involved, too. I have no earthly idea if this is how it's supposed to look or taste, but it was, frankly, delicious.
?Wash it all down with a Guinness, & you have the perfect'working lunch.' By which I mean, you will be utterly incapable of doing any actual work for the rest of the day. It's heavy, it's messy, & it's magnificent.

Best tap beer in the neighborhood with plenty of choices. The service is always impeccable. The food is good & well executed, but nothing is homemade.'
No complaints! Came here to drink & have a snack & we got both! Prices were reasonable & food was tasty. Solid spot & definitely the most affordable in the block.
Nous sommes venus boire un verre dans ce bar avec des amis. Le service est agréable. Beaucoup de choix à la carte ! La place est bien agencée & permet de ne pas être collée aux uns aux autres. Le lieu peut etre toutefois un peu bruyant ! Les prix sont raisonnables ! Nous reviendrons.
L'ambiance dans ce pub est vraiment cool, ce qui en fait l'endroit idéal pour se détendre & décompresser. Le service est top & le personnel est incroyablement chaleureux, ce qui garantit de passer un super moment du début à la fin.
?Vous pouvez y déguster plusieurs types de bières tout en profitant de l'atmosphère vibrante. & si vous avez un petit creux, leur menu varié propose de délicieuses options, comme des burgers juteux & l'incontournable fish & chips.

On a passé un samedi soir extraordinaire au Pub Victoria lors d'un événement privé. On était 90 personnes & grand bravo au chef & son équipe. C'était délicieux & servi chaud a tout le monde en même temps! Vraiment un bon moment vécu au Pub Victoria
We had a lovely lunch here out on the terrace. My husband really enjoyed the cider & my kids loved the fish & chips. Adam, our server, was very friendly & helpful with our food selections & ideas of what else to do in the city. Definitely glad we stopped in!
