3 Best Pubs in Montreal, QC

“Burgundy Lion is situated in Little Burgundy, with a rich working-class heritage.

With Burgundy Lion, they immerse themselves in the community and re-create that sense of comfort but with a modern twist. The concept behind the design and feel of Burgundy Lion is to blend a traditional British pub with a stylish lounge bar and to offer a unique twist on British pub cuisine. At Pub Burgundy Lion, whisky holds a special place in their heart.
