Such great service here! I asked to sit somewhere quiet, & they had the perfect spot. The waiter was so polite & friendly, she was fantastic. I ordered a wolf & workman ale & dinner. Get the chicken pot pie! It's a showstopper.

We have been here twice since we arrived for a conference in Montreal. The staff are friendly & welcoming & the patrons were friendly. I really enjoyed the chicken pot pie & the old fashions were spectacular. Highly recommend this establishment to people are wanting to experience the Montreal culture.
Great food the wife had the huge chicken pot pie was very hot & delicious, I had the W W burger was very tasty !!The old fashion with
Makers Mark 514 was great we would definitely come back!!
Love this place, there is no crazy huge menu, what they serve, they do it well! I would highly recommend the chicken pot pie, OMG- Sooo good!! We have brought several friends here on different occasions & seasons & they have all enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. Cheers!
Good pub atmosphere, should have stuck with pub fare. The swordfish special was underwhelming & small. The pot pie looked very good. Very limited G options.
Cauliflower salad was great; lamb korma pie was under-spiced, & pork croquettes were mushy & uninteresting inside. The presentation, sauces & salads are excellent. Service was cheerful & polite, but could have been more proactive about navigating the minefield that is the cocktail menu (i.e, point out clearly that a drink has a weird ingredient like chocolate or banana liqueur!). Tonic was flat.

Absolutely lovely place, very friendly service & great ambiance. I am somewhat irked that a place that has great scotch eggs also has an incredibly delicious mezze platter. Marvelous hummus, wish I knew the secret. Would recommend to anyone looking for a delicious meal. The pot pie also has a fantastic presentation.
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.
Great spot for lunch! Fast, friendly service, prices ok (for Old Montreal, anyway). I ordered the chicken pot pie, & it was very good. The sauce was maybe missing a kick (more white wine, maybe?), but the portion was generous & filled with juicy, tender chicken & the pastry was phenomenal. Some kind of side (steamed veg, green salad) would have been welcome for the price. Nonetheless, highly recommended!

The chicken pot pie is the best I've ever tried. It was suggested by the man seating next to us & he said it was his favorite chicken pot pie & that he went to this place every week to have it. He was right, it was amazing, & the price was fair considering the amount of food. We also had drinks (Lysa is a must try) & the smoked sturgeon as an appetizer, which was really good as well. It gets pretty crowded, but it was easy to get a table for two (Thursday dinner) & the service was so lovely they even managed to get us a table in the backyard, which is adorable!
