| - imagine a huge sports bar which focused its atmosphere more on music instead of sports. such is an apt description of Pub St. Paul. I mean, they have a giant painting of "the Last Supper" with John Lennon as Jesus, flanked by Alice Cooper, Bob Marley, Janis Joplin, David Bowie, and other legends. IT IS AWESOME.
we dropped in for a late lunch; I had a beer and poutine. not the best poutine I've had, but not bad. the option for a spicy pepper gravy with your poutine is clutch. Caroline had a grilled chicken salad - I sampled the chicken and it was nice and spicy!
service was good. considering we came in the afternoon, it wasn't very busy. it looked emptier than it really was because this place is HUGE - two floors! holy crap! the main floor has tables which overlook the port, or tables which overlook the streets of Old Montreal (we chose the former).
I liked this place, though I feel it would be much better at nighttime. pool and foosball tables in one corner. they have live bands play, open mics, jam sessions, and of course, drink specials (like 3 dollar shots of Jack...sign me up)!
definitely gonna check this place out again on future trips to Montreal!
