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.
The staff seem to compete with each other so when we moved to a bigger table once the rest of our group came we technically moved to a different servers section which caused the two servers some conflict which shouldn't be the case...
Merci à Éloïse, super service incroyable, aucune attente & l'envie de venir dépenser son argent ici. Agréable d'être servit de la sorte dans un cadre très cool. Merci beaucoup.
5/5 atmosphere & food, try the Cajun wings & pulled pork flatbread! Tonight was Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final. Little note about the service: I've never seen a bartender have to come out from the bar to serve customers while the waitress sits at the barstools with customers to watch the game. We waited 25 minutes for our waitress to take our food order but that never happened so I got up & waited at the bar. I think it was the busboy who kindly took & entered our order; he & another waiter served us after but it was the same waitress who came to collect the bill & her tip. I'll regret leaving that tip if it isn't shared by all the staff. I'd come back again & don't mind ordering from the bar for the Cajun wings. Would love to see bigger screens for the sports too.

This bar quickly became our favorite spot in Montréal! Initially just searching for a place for a drink, we stumbled upon it conveniently close to our hotel. Inside, ample seating & a stylish industrial-retro décor greeted us. Our French server was not only friendly but also efficient, adding to our enjoyable experience. The pricing for beer is excellent, especially during the happy hours until 7pm, making it a fantastic deal. The ambiance is enhanced by tasteful, classic music selections. Despite having six beers, we found ourselves reluctant to leave. We're already planning our return on our next visit to Montréal.
