I didn't eat, but what my friends had looked all in all delicious & plentiful, especially the Indian chicken. The burger looked average & the fries burned. Friendly service & nice outdoor seating in a court decorated with little light chains.

It's a great spot in the Old-Port. I really liked the atmosphere in their backdoor terrasse & their prices are good for the Old-Port . I had the opportunity to go for the Happy Hour which you can grab a drink at a good price. The W&W Burger was juicy & tender served with crunchy tasty fries. The caramelized onions bring an interesting taste to the burger. The fisherman's pie is also great, tasty & probably one of the best I ever tried. You really feel the taste of the mussels & clams & everything is well balanced. Both plates were well presented & good. As regards the decoration it really feels like a typical pub that you can find in the UK. An excellent pub in the old port where I enjoyed my experience & where I'll probably go back.
Food is good, but nothing crazy. For some reason our waiter "changed" 3 times , they(the waiters) were all quite nice , but its a bit confusing. All dishes are beautifully plated, but some would benefit from(better) sides, for example the fish is said to come with a puree, but the puree is such that it blends with the sauce. When I read puree I expect a minimum of consistency. Also despite it not being indicated I could taste something akin to dill, or anise in the fish's sauce. The burger's fries are quite great, The caprese too. I was disappointed in the pasta, they were overly salty, I never did that ever, but I requested them to redo it, & from my understanding it was impossible to do, since the pasta's sauce is done in "batch/great quantity" (not that it isnt fresh), I ended up changing my dish to chicken, but I genuinely did not want to eat an indian dish that day. Also we came at around 5 , & were a group of 3 but, it took a while for our dish to come , some people came after us, & had the time to receive their drinks & dishes before us. Overall everyone was quite nice, but I cannot say it was my best experience. Small tidbit, our first waiter spoke english & french, but seemed to struggle a bit(with french), but I applaud their choice to come back to make sure of our order instead of taking it wrong. Strongest point of this place, is the ambiance, the decor, & the art, & sort of terrace behind, which is isolated from the busy streets.
Really cool place for evening drinks & a bite to eat with good music. On the night we did have a significant wait on the food which we were not informed about but it was fine. The potted chicken, fish pie were good but the fries which accompanied the house burger were burnt which was a shame as they were nicely seasoned. Price wise probably a bit pricey for what is obviously pub food but the venue dictates that to some extent.
Daily burger with fries & a fresh salad for two people was more than enough for us. The fries are so flavourful all on their own & the salad was not an'afterthought' at all but a selection of crisp tender greens, salty olive halves, tiny slices of sweet peppercinos & a fresh in-house herb vinaigrette- all topped with fresh goat cheese crumbles. Divine. We'll be back :)
Great friendly service. Pleasantly surprised by the Mezze & the burger was fine. Loved our round table in a secluded nook, felt like a VIP. Would come again
Samedi midi. Salade & burger . Tous les deux bien préparés avec une touche créative. La déco est superbe & l'ambiance est agréable. J'y retournai pour souper.
Excellente bouffe, essayer l'entrée hummus avec pain... Saveurs délicieuse avec une bonne recherche de goût, les falafels très complexe en saveurs...dans le bon sens... & quoi dire des drinks🤤, moi je suis du genre mocktail & bien ils ont quand même des bons choix même ceux pas sur le menu.Le seul hic que j'ai, mais sans trop s'acharner sur ça, un burger & un pied stragonoff, 40 min. avant le service...une chance que l'on avait eux entre d'humus avant qui je redis était beaucoup plus de ce que je m'attendait.SVP faites vous plaisir & essayer ce resto/pub/bar a tout prix... oublié pas la sublime terrasse l'été

Love this place. Bartenders are awesome & always a great scene. Locals & tourists alike. Too many fries with it but the burger is one of the best I've ever had. No frozen patties here.
Great little English pub with a twist! Scotch eggs to die for! One of the rare place you can order your burger medium rare! & a friendly staff that makes you feel right at home!
Belle endroit, superbe terrasse !
Très bon burger ! Goutu & généreux
Prix élevé mais lié au vieux port & son tourisme
Service correct, j'ai eu à date une soirée avec une expérience moyenne & un dîner nickel :)
Mention sur le fait que le soir c'est extrêmement bruyant
Went there for a quick snack. Enjoyed the schnitzel, just wish it had a little carbs on the side or something. The jalapeno margaria was great & very refreshing.
Husband said the burger is ok.
