Great selection of taps and AWESOME genuinely friendly staff behind the bar. The only downer on this past Friday night was the band - patrons where moving away in droves and groups walking in made a u-turn right out. My understanding is that the staff did speak to the them to adjust their levels i.e. you're at a pub not metalfest and that they got blown off. Also they were playing funk and disco classics at 45 speed when it should've been 33 1/3. Who booked them? I mean a pub equals classic rock and Great Big Sea or even Dropkick Murphys. We moved downstairs which was nice and quiet with a pretty big tv (Jays opener). I've been here a few times and it's iconic but cam on! On a bright note: The pint of Guinness was pretty good.

A staple in Montreal. My favorite Irish pub, period.

Good aesthetic and service. Shame the food and drink were underwhelming. The Guinness was badly poured and so was bitter and thin, and the poutine was smaller than explained by the waitress and swimming in a gravy soup. (Note: many of the whiskies and scotch on the menu were unavailable. :/ why not remove them then?)

My review is very specifically showing up when it was super busy and crowded. While it chilled out before we left it was a little chaotic. The food wasn't bad the, the Guinness burger was really good and the leek and chicken pie was delicious, but neither was out of this world (though the first bite of the burger was close. With all the busy the server was on top of it, while the crowd felt a little over whelming when the kitchen missed our order it was fixed quickly and dealt with by the server. I would try the place again when calmer in a heartbeat.

Went for St. Patrick's Day and it was AMAZING. Had an awesome night; beer was great, band was super fun, and the upstairs DJ played great songs. Since it was St. Paddy's day, it was quite packed, we waited in line a couple of minutes to get in, but nothing too long. Vibes were very fun!! Overall, a wonderful night!

Went here recently and it was a lot of fun. The staff were friendly and there was a decent age range to the crowd which me and the live music was good. I will definitely be going here again soon

This great pub is located in the heart of downtown. They offer a variety of nice beers and cocktails, live music occasionally, and weekly comedy shows. I also highly recommend their ciders!

A pub with bad atmosphere, careless staff, and poor management the owners clearly dont care! Not worth it at all!

Pretty awesome spot! Recently started coming here a little more often. Great for sporting events, comedy shows, live music and more. Great patio in the back, definitely one of the nicer ones in the downtown area. A good amount of variety when it comes to food. I am definitely looking forward to saint paddy’s here. Special shout-out to the manager Anna who’s been there for a while and makes the place that much more welcoming!

McKibbins is what you can expect from an Irish bar with the additional of being a student hot-spot. I've always had pleasant experiences there and it'll be a go-to for me as long as I'm in the city!

I chatted with two young strangers at the bar here for so long that my girlfriend (who is very beautiful) got very mad at me. The young strangers and I talked about life, love, the city, the future, the past, even our hopes and dreams. They were ex lovers who maintained a very strong bond of friendship. I do not remember their names, but I wish them both beautiful and fulfilling lives. The Guinness was excellent!!

We got the Mckibbins Guinness Burger with a side of caesar salad. The quesadilla, buffalo chicken wings, and an order of chicken tenders. The burger and wings were good, wings were not as crispy as anticipated, and the burger was on the oily side. The Guinness sauce tasted more like traditional BBQ sauce. The Caesar salad was really good, nice creamy sauce, that didn't overwhelm the rest of the salad. The quesadilla was good, salsa provided a good amount of flavor. The chicken tenders on the other hand left a lot to be desired, they were rubbery and very stringy. For drinks, I had a Moscow mule, and a negroni. The mule was really good, and the negroni was seemingly unmixed. The atmosphere really tied the place over, solid Irish pub, great wall art, and very hospitable. Would recommend if you are looking for a casual pub to go to with your peers. They graciously comped the chicken tenders, which was very nice of them, and accommodating.
