Almost immediately after this place opened, we became regulars. The servers were fantastic, the food was really good and we loved the courtyard terrace. Over the years we brought lots of friends and family to Wolf & Workman, and I always recommended it to people. So, why only 2 stars? We stopped going when we noticed it was claiming to be in the Old Port. When we asked our server once, she said: “Yeah, we know it’s not but it’s for tourists, I guess.” As longtime Old Montreal residents who supported Wolf & Workman (including in the slower winter months), we were ticked off. If they’re lying to attract tourists, then maybe they don’t care about residents. A neighbour who used to be a regular said he stopped going, too, because “if they’re lying about being in the Old Port, what else are they lying about?” It’s a shame that Wolf & Workman have decided to alienate Old Montreal residents. If you choose to go (and you should) you will likely get seated easily because there are a few less regulars using up tables.

I had a fantastic experience at Pub Wolf & Workman in Montreal. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the service was excellent from start to finish. The hanger steak was cooked perfectly tender, flavorful, and exactly how I ordered it. The General Tao ribs were outstanding such a great balance of sweet and savory with just the right amount of kick. Everything about the meal hit the mark. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m in Montreal!

I was here the other day and had a terrible experience. The staff were obviously drunk and not just one person, but it seemed like everyone was intoxicated which felt super unprofessional. We waited on our drinks while they did shots together and ignored us. Not to mention we overheard the staff (including who I assume is the manager) openly talking badly about other clients. Overall unprofessional and not worth the money they charge for simple items like a normal burger with fries. I’ve never gone out of my way to leave a bad review before but it was THAT bad.

Had a wonderful dinner here. Nice and cozy and the pot pie was killer! Great on a cold winter’s day.

Stopped in at Wolf & Workman for lunch between two client meetings and honestly… this place understood the assignment. I walked in and immediately got that warm,chill,cozy feeling. Perfect indie rock at the right volume vibes. The kind of music that says “stay a while, but don’t panic if you have emails.” The manager was at the bar doing some work, bartender greeted me right away, and when I asked for a quiet spot with a plug to get some laptop work done, they both made sure I was set up properly. Small detail, big win. My waitress had a serious, slightly cold demeanor but in a good way. April Ludgate energy, minus the chaos. Dry. Professional. Zero nonsense. I loved it. I ordered an Old Fashioned. She made sure to confirm it was their version (slightly different than the traditional one). I said yes. Excellent decision. It was fantastic genuinely one of the best Old Fashioneds I’ve had in a while, and this is my go-to drink. Then came the W-W burger (burger of the day). Caramelized onions, jam, cheese the works. Quality ingredients, cooked right. The brioche bun initially felt firm, but it turns out it was just preparing me. That crunch ended up being exactly what the burger needed. The patty was perfectly rosé… but let me be clear: This burger was actively trying to escape. Like a raccoon realizing the trash lid is loose, the patty kept making break attempts from the bun. This is not a burger you casually pick up, put down, and reflect on life choices. No. Once you lift it, you commit. Setting it back down becomes a high-risk maneuver. I foolishly attempted to pause mid-burger. Bad idea. Quick reassessment. Napkin deployed on lap for safety. Second pickup. Final pickup. No turning back. Despite several escape attempts, I managed to keep it together and enjoyed every bite. The waitress noticed my struggle and, without breaking character, quietly brought extra napkins for the aftermath. Respect. Am I mad about the inconvenience? Not at all. It’s a burger. Deal with it. And more importantly ... it was phenomenal. Cozy, classy, busy but still quiet. A little expensive, but expensive in the right way. I’ll absolutely be back next time I’m nearby.

Wood & Workman is an incredibly beautiful pub with a great atmosphere. The staff were friendly and quick to serve us when we first arrived. The mushroom soup was hands down the best we’ve ever had, and the hummus was delicious — though we wished there was more naan to go with it. Unfortunately, getting additional drinks later on took an extremely long time — it felt like we were waiting for the moon landing. Overall, it’s a stunning spot with amazing food, and with a bit more attention to drink service, it would be outstanding.

A very cool place to stop and grab a drink. The experience was less than due to our first server being very rude towards us as if we were an inconvenience. After she brought us our first drink she stated that she was done her shift for the day. The second server was friendly and delightful. Service matters, so making us feel like we were an inconvenience is why this review gets 3 stars.

We had an exceptional visit to W & W during a snowy Monday night. Started off with a drink in the bar. Yes Happy Hour specials are available! Decided to stay for dinner. Our meals were excellent. Pork chop was one of the best I have had!! All service was friendly and personal. This was our second visit and we will continue to come back! Considering that it was packed on a Monday night says a lot about this place!

One of the best pubs/bars in the Vieux Port area of Montreal. The decoration was lovely, a mix of old school pub vibes with a classy bar. The prices were very reasonable, we were dumbfounded that you could still get a beer for 8.50, even more so in this area of town. There was a few TV’s to watch sports, but not too many to lose its charm. The service was solid, even when it was busy, the people serving were kind. This has now become my go to pub in the area, you get a little bit of everything without taking away anything. Would definitely recommend.

Hands down the best experience we’ve had in Montreal. Angi, our server, and Margo were absolutely amazing—both incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and spot-on with their recommendations. The food was outstanding; the chefs truly know what they’re doing. And the drinks? Perfectly made and nice and stiff. We’ll definitely be back.

Food looked very tasty, drinks a bit overpriced, but solid enough. My friend and I both felt weird after having our drinks; not a normal liquor reaction but some weird chest feeling.

5 for lunch, third time going there… it’s a pub, pub fare, pedestrian, our server was awesome, mushroom soup excellent, hard for us to find something on menu to work with.. over $300 for lunch and there are far better options in the area at the same price point. Amazed how busy it is, usually a wait time, location is the primary draw.
