I went to the Brasseurs de Montreal last week with a group of friends to take advantage of the first warm terrace worthy night of the summer. Truth be told I've been here a few times before with about the same results every time.
To start this place has a nice terrace, in the middle of Griffin Town. I'm not sure how many it can seat but it's allot since we were ten at our table and there were quite a few other tables with groups around us and we still felt like we were the only ones there.
The service always seems to be a little slow but nothing too bad and since I'm always there with friends it's nice to have the time to talk. I would like the wait staff to be quicker with the first round drinks. I wouldn't suggest Les Brasseurs de Montreal if you're in a hurry but if your out for a nice night with friends it's a fun place to be and you might not even realize that the service is a little slow.
Being a microbrewery this place makes a full compliment of beers that will please any beer drinker. I must admit that I am not a big beer drinker but every time I come here I find a beer that I like, last time we shared pitchers of sangria and that was also good.
The food is your typical pub fare with burgers, bavette, nachos and sandwiches on the menu. The food is OK the quality average, it really isn't bad but you wont rant and rave about it the next day. I realized the food here was nothing to write home about when the day after I couldn't remember what I'd had for diner.
Nothing about Les Brasseurs de Montreal stands out but that's what I like about it. It's a nice neighbourhood spot where you can go grab a drink and something to eat with friends on a nice terrace or even inside when the weather is cold and if the company is good you're sure to have a good time.
