Review Summary

Overall, Taverne Midway is described as a warm, welcoming venue with a retro, art-deco vibe, brick-wall ambiance, and a varied playlist that suits both relaxed evenings and lively nights. The staff are consistently praised for friendliness, attentiveness, and making guests feel at home, creating a personal, genuine vibe that many reviews say makes you want to return. Drinks and food receive strong praise, with a wide cocktail selection, solid beer options, and standout nachos, though a few notes mention a mojito that was too diluted and prices that can be on the higher side. The atmosphere stays upbeat and social, with fast service, a bustling crowd, and amenities like a billiards area contributing to a sense of belonging. Taken together, the reviews position Midway as a go-to spot in Montreal for drinks, music, and a welcoming crowd.

This is an absolutely beautiful bar & great place for billiards / pool & beer.
The staff were all so incredibly nice. The beer they recommended was delicious, & the pool area was nice & & secluded from the rest of the bar. The one downside to the pool table is that it is near the washrooms.
The atmosphere is what elevates this bar as a spot to recommend. See the pictures for an idea, but the music selection fits the art deco vibe they have going perfectly in my opinion.
Other than the price of the beers which was a bit high, this is definitely a bar worth going to if you can afford it.

J'y vais régulièrement après le travail pour leurs offres 5 à 7 à prix imbattable! Les serveurs sont réguliers & super sympathiques. Parfois la musique peut être un peu forte par contre. Il y a une table de pool à l'arrière. C'est un bel endroit pour aller prendre un verre! Je recommande cette place pour vos 5 à 7. N'oubliez pas de réserver si vous venez en groupe.

My favorite bar in my favorite city! Large space with lots of seating & there's a pool table in the back. Fast service at the bar. They have one hot looking crew of bartenders & they all make great drinks. Merci beacoup! A bientôt!

Went here for drinks two times during the week. There's always place at the bar & few tables available. It's candid place & the ratio of alcohol in the drinks are fair for the price. People at the pool table are usually welcoming & friendly. Going there alone isn't weird , will come back.

A place that has been operating since 1927 (& we shamefully had no idea about) where we wandered one Friday night after a show nearby. A lively atmosphere complete with a pool table, wooden high tables, neon signs & a tiny hint of art deco as a nod to its roots. Our drinks were somewhat adequate. Good but nothing to write home about. The service we experienced on a busy night was very amicable & prompt.

Cool bar which I've been passing by for years & finally checked out. Love the interior design & the nod to old school taverns with the jars of pickles & pickles eggs on the bar. Great skylight in the middle & a pool table towards the back. Good & quick service. An amazing happy hour special which appears to be every day? Will be back if ever we're in the area & looking to grab some quick drinks.
