Overall, Pub Wolf & Workman comes across as a lively Old Montreal pub with a warm, cozy vibe and strong good-to-excellent food and drinks. The menu is built around hearty comfort dishes like beef Stroganoff pie, chicken pot pie, and fisherman's pie, plus delicious scotch eggs, hummus plates, and a variety of mezze starters, all paired with a robust beer list, solid cocktails, and a varied whiskey selection. The atmosphere is bustling and welcoming, with a charming courtyard and patio that are especially popular in good weather, though weekends can get loud and parking can be tricky; reservations are often recommended. Service is described as friendly and attentive when not overwhelmed, and portions are generous with many reviewers calling the pies outstanding and the brunch superb, making it a go-to spot for drinks, bites, and casual meals in the area.
A very cool place to stop & grab a drink. The experience was less than due to our first server being very rude towards us as if we were an inconvenience. After she brought us our first drink she stated that she was done her shift for the day. The second server was friendly & delightful.
Service matters, so making us feel like we were an inconvenience is why this review gets 3 stars.
Hands down the best experience we've had in Montreal. Angi, our server, & Margo were absolutely amazing-both incredibly knowledgeable about the menu & spot-on with their recommendations. The food was outstanding; the chefs truly know what they're doing. & the drinks? Perfectly made & nice & stiff. We'll definitely be back.

Food looked very tasty, drinks a bit overpriced, but solid enough. My friend & I both felt weird after having our drinks; not a normal liquor reaction but some weird chest feeling.
I never leave bad reviews, but this place was awful. Nicely decorated place but the waitress was rude from the get-go. We were a party of four, two of us were having the same thing & when they brought out the food mine was missing, after five minutes I asked if mine was coming & with a terrible attitude, she said she thought we were sharing. Mistakes happen but at least be polite about it. When we asked for another drink, she rolled her eyes. I was going to say something to the manager on the way out about the rude waitress, but then I heard the manager complaining to a different waitress that my son was taking too long to help his aunt on with her coat, so they're all like it. I kicked myself later for leaving a tip, creature of habit I suppose. There's plenty of restaurants in Montreal, why pay for mediocre food & terrible service...
I've been a loyal customer at Wolf & Workman for quite some time, but my experience last night was disappointing enough to really reconsider returning.
We arrived around 6:30 PM & were seated without any mention of a time limit on our table. We had a couple of beers & our dinner, enjoying our evening as usual. But immediately after we finished eating, the waiter came over & abruptly told us they'really needed the table.' We were a bit surprised but still trying to finish our drinks. Within a couple of minutes, he returned, pressuring us again to leave before my friend even had a chance to finish her drink.
I get that it was busy, but as regulars, we would have appreciated a heads-up or at least a bit more courtesy. Being rushed out like that really left a sour taste. Hopefully, the management can handle this kind of situation more gracefully in the future.
This place is a great experience & one of the finer Pubs in Montreal. This is a must visit for locals & travelers!
The way the atmosphere hits the right pub vibe. Small, cozy, friendly, & expansive. The wood finish & the lighting gives a sense like you have been going there your whole life.
The service was very friendly, super fast, & helpful. Our waiter understood we only spoke English & that was no problem on their end.
The food was outstanding & very creative! Arancini to start is the way to go as they were tasty, creamy, & hearty. The Chicken Pot pie was super hot but it was delicious. The seafood pasta was very fresh & filling. The presentation & portion size was near perfect. The drinks were mixed to perfection. The mixology is top tier here.
The prices are above average but worth every bit.
Overall, Pub Wolf & Workman is an amazing place to have a bite to eat or watch a futball game with the regulars that go there. This is a hometown pub up & down.
Loved this pub! Patio was super cute, service was great. Loved the atmosphere. Just stopped for a drink & some fries but would love to go back for a real dinner!

The drinks were great, atmosphere good, food bad (fries were not good & burger too thick & tough )& service worse. Couldn't recommend it, & would never go back.
My first & only review goes to Wolf & Workman, who absolutely earned it. My friend, Kate, & I spent over a week in Montréal & stumbled upon this spot on our first day. We ended up coming back again & again. The food & drinks were excellent, & the staff couldn't have been kinder to us (shoutout to Kayla!). We're already planning our return to Montréal, & the chicken pot pie & drinks alone are more than enough reason to come back. We're wondering how many visits it'll take before we earn scarf hanging privileges? Our team/place of work would look pretty good up there…
Definitely recommend trying this pub in Old Montreal. We were a group of 8 people, on Friday evening, & they were able to accommodate us at the terrasse on the back. We stayed for drinks only, they have a lot to choose from & they are all tasty. Beautiful decor & great friendly staff!
Update : came back 2 years after my first review & would still give it a 5⭐. Tried the chicken pot pie, it was good but I prefered the beef Stroganoff pot pie.
My boyfriend & I really loved the vibes here! The pub was a lively environment, beautiful setting & great atmosphere. Our server, Zev, was absolutely fantastic. Zev was personable & made us feel so welcome!
Good food
Affordable drinks
Good option for late night
Good people
Good vibes
Highly recommend!!

We came here for drinks before our dinner at a different restaurant & we regretted not booking this place for our dinner instead. We were drooling over every food that was brought to other tables, we've noticed that the pot pie was the popular dish & I can't wait to try it next time I am in Montreal!
I organiser my 50th birthday party here for over 40 of my friends. Sean-Michael & his team did a Great job organizing the drinks & food & took care of all the guests. The food & drinks were great.
We sat on the back patio which had shade & ceiling fans running. It was very pleasant out there for such a hot day. Our waitress was great but she had A LOT of tables out there. We were not in a rush & enjoyed our time. Food was very good as were the drinks.
Overall a very good experience & would recommend coming here.
