Review Summary

Taverne Midway comes across as a lively, welcoming spot with a constant midnight buzz where the atmosphere can be chill or high energy and the staff make guests feel at home with warm, attentive service. Drinks and vibes are repeatedly highlighted: creative cocktails and a solid beer list, popular bites like nachos and olives, quick service, and a DJ spinning a mix of modern hits and throwbacks that keep the room lively. The staff are noted for being personable and attentive, remembering regulars and going out of their way to accommodate needs, contributing to a sense that this is more than just a bar. The venue features an art deco vibe, a pool table, and a layout that feels intimate or bustling depending on the night. Some reviews mention good value and affordable options, while others point out that prices can be high for certain items and that peak times may bring crowding or seating turnover. Occasional critiques reference music taste and a touristy vibe, but the overall impression centers on a fun, welcoming space where memorable nights are common.

TRÈS MAUVAISE EXPÉRIENCE
A la sortie d'un spectacle nous y avons passé la fin de soirée. Nachos & bière.Quand est venu le temps de sortir (malgré la présence de 2-3 derniers clients), nous nous sommes fait agressivrement, non mérité, pousser à sortir par le portier qui portait fiérement sa casqette SECURITY & semblait prét à lever les points. Petit bonhomme frustré qui fera du tord à ce commerce.

Laissez faire le Central en face, c'est ici que ça se passe. Super vibe rétro & chaleureuse avec playlist des années 70. Ne commander pas les nachos, on en devient accros en quelques bouchées. Nous en avons commander 4 autres :) Cocktails bons sauf le mojito trop dilué. Service sympathique & efficace.

Je suis habitué à aller à ce bar quand je suis à mon montreal. La dernière fois, le serveur m'a confisqué mon télé car je sortais fumer une cigarette avec mon amie,(Je paie par téléphone) & quand je lui demandé pourquoi il m a répondu qu il est chez lui & sa loi (tu regarde beaucoup de film bro) . Le monde est devenu dingue . Y en que des bars à montreal si il le sais pas

Honestly one of the best bars in Montréal - no question about it! The atmosphere is always perfect, whether you're there for a chill night or a wild one. But what really makes Midway special is the people. The staff is absolutely incredible - from the manager to the bartenders, servers, & even the busboys. Everyone goes out of their way to make you feel at home.

They actually remember their customers, greet you by name, & treat you like a friend, not just a face in the crowd. It's rare to find that kind of genuine care & consistency these days. The service, the energy, the smiles - everything feels personal & authentic every single time.

Huge thank you to the whole team for always bringing that good vibe & making every visit a good memory. You guys make Montréal proud! 🍻

I came here for the first time last month & had the best time ever with my friend! My friend suggested that it was a great place for drinks & music; he was absolutely right! There are many think options & they are brought to us very quickly. They had a DJ who was playing really good music from modern hits to classic throwbacks. My friend & I were singing & dancing in our seats the entire time. The staff members were extremely friendly & were having fun as they were working; it was refreshing to see that. We had a blast & we'll definitely be back.

Was walking the streets of Montreal & happened to stumble across this place. Had a great experience here with our host Max. Very warm & upbeat personality! Constantly made sure everything was great & had zero problem catering to any of our needs.

While exploring Montreal over the weekend, we stumbled upon Midway, not once, but twice during a bit of spontaneous bar hopping. It wasn't on our radar; we just happened to wander in while strolling down Saint Laurent Blvd. From the moment we walked in, there was a vibe. The bartenders felt like old friends- laughing, joking, & welcoming everyone with ease. As luck would have it, we arrived during the bar's birthday weekend, so the place was buzzing with celebration.

What made it truly memorable wasn't just the drinks or the music, but the people behind the bar. They were genuine, chatty, & even gave us a list of other local gems to check out. Their energy was contagious - we had a great time because they were clearly having a great time.

Montreal is a city full of character, & if you're lucky, you'll find yourself in a place like Midway where you don't just grab a drink, you feel like you belong.

Nette Bar, nette Kellner… nur leider verhältnismäßig teuer. 9.50$ für ein Glas gezapftes lokales Bier.
