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.
Went for Valentine's Day & had brunch with my fiancé. Because it was a special occasion, we made a reservation well in advance. It was wonderful. Nice place, & we were sat near a bookshelf, which I liked a lot.
First & last time coming here sadly. The drinks & food were great very cosy atmosphere but you just never forget how a person makes you feel. The waitress we had, 40-something woman with pigtails- had such a negative energy I felt it in her tone of voice the from the moment I asked her what the specials were. She was clearly irritated by my question, responding to me so condescendingly, I was a bit stunned so I just stared at her for a second… super uncomfortable. Later during our drinks, she handed my friend her glass of wine & hastened her to take it from the waitresses hand. Isn't it normal for the drink to be placed on the table? We were there a max of 45 minutes. Some people just leave you feeling gross inside & it's so, so unnecessary. People have to act better.
Service très attentionné, nourriture au delà des attentes, prix selon les attentes, il faut essayer le HOWARD SCOTCH EGG & le PIE AU BOEUF STROGANOFF, 2 plats extrêmement savoureux & qui sortent de l'ordinaire,
Five star experience with exceptional service & delicious food.
We had the Pork Chops, absolutely delicious & perfectly cooked.
Also, the fall-off-the-bone tasty honey & garlic ribs with the homemade kimchi chee.
& the impressive maple salad, (it was a small portion) a scrumptious marriage of sucrine lettuce, endive, marinated beets, pears, raisins, & seasoned ricotta topped with a maple dressing.
I happily stole the ribs & salad idea from the lovely woman sitting to me at the bar - Lucy who
turned out to be the general manager,. How lucky is that?
It's the that details that made our meal so memorable.
Holly, the warm & amiable bartender, Vincent, the personable service assistant, & Lucy, the down to earth manager - each made us feel like long-time regulars & friends.
Thank you for making our evening so enjoyable.

Peak weekend evening so it was busy & loud but as expected for a gastro pub. Did not eat but drinks were good but service was slow & lighting was varied & too low on the resto side in parts.
This was a lovely pub. The food was fantastic. They specialize in pot pies & I tried the braised beef pie. The flavors were amazing & the beef was perfectly cooked. Would return for sure.
Went here all the time for several years but then noticed its marketing team started pretending it was located in the Old Port even though it's in Old Montreal. A bartender explained that they say Old Port because it has a better reputation than Old Montreal, which has become increasingly dirty & sketchy. True, but still kind of insulting to residents. So, they've lost two longtime customers.
We went in for drinks after eating in our hotel restaurant & the staff were friendly & gave us some great advice about what to see/do in Montreal. Gets really busy on weekends
Had an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, & full of flavor. The service was attentive & welcoming, & the atmosphere was perfect - lively but still intimate. Such a great spot for a night out. Highly recommend!
You'll want a reservation (walking in is almost impossible) but it's for good reason!
We ordered the chicken pot pie (to die for), the Shepard's pie (pretty good), & one of the pasta dishes (phenomenal). The drinks were great & the service excellent.
We celebrated a birthday here & the staff helped make the night special.
