Taverne Midway in Montreal is described as a lively, welcoming spot with friendly, attentive staff and a warm energy that makes each visit feel personal. Reviews highlight a strong bar scene with a retro, stylish vibe, a varied playlist, and good value during happy hour, along with tasty options like nachos and a cheese and charcuterie board, though one note mentions the cheese plate price being a surprise. The atmosphere can be bustling or noisy at times, especially with larger groups, but the overall experience is consistently enjoyable, with many praising the service, the energy behind the bar, and the sense of belonging created by staff who remember regulars. It is a place where cocktails shine and music, conversation, and a lively crowd come together, and many say it is a reliable go-to in Montreal for a night out with friends or after a concert.
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.

La musique, surtout country & autres, était vraiment à chier. Un bar à touristes. & les pintes de 14 oz pour le prix de vraies pintes c'est inacceptable. Le serveur était bien par contre
Fantastic place for 2am food & drinks.
Staff is amazing, food is delicious & extremely fast. Drinks are strong in the best of ways. Couldn't believe the low prices for this upscale bar!!
If you need late night service, this is the spot!
Great happy hour. Mojito was nice, beer was macro. The olive order was huge! & I love that it came with sun dried tomatoes for me since I hate olives 😂
J'ai passé une excellente soirée hier au Midway. L'ambiance était chaleureuse, les cocktails étaient bons, &, surtout, une mention particulière pour le service attentionné de Julien. Merci pour la double ration de haricots!
First time in Montreal, we came down just for the weekend & spent both nights here for drinks. Absolutely love this place! Shoutout to bartender Paul & Ben & all the other hard workers there. Customer service skills 10/10!!
I must say very disappointed as an American . They try to take Advantage of you . Steal from you. Was suppose to receive over 20 dollars & change & the waiter ask if he can give us 8 dollars back lol . Did not allow us to make tip decision after they included tip spent 92 dollars on wings & three drinks. Be aware
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.
