I was so excited to notice Le Saint Bock when I was walking in the area with my sister. I had been here around 10 years ago with my husband and remember coming here twice while we were visiting because of the great beer selection. We sat outside. The service was fine. I have to admit that I was underwhelmed by the beer this time. But, I have to say that whatever poutine we chose-it was loaded with lots of goodness-it was definitely the right choice.
A great spot for the Quartier Latin. The entire rue Saint-Denis, is great in this spot for food and drinks, but this place became a spot for us several years ago, and it's good to return to check out. They have an outdoor seating area, a patio of sorts and then indoor seating. Rarely do people sit indoors. We did this time because it was easier and didn't require a wait, but we were still close to the garage door that was opened to the outside. For beer, they do their own and have other local selections. These are on a slate board at the entrance and outside, and on digital screens inside. There's a large assortment of great options to choose from. The menu is not extensive, but good, and general pub food. I recommend the poutine options. You're in Quebec, this is what they do. This time I had poutine, but with bacon. Bacon. Poutine. Enough said. But no, lemme explain - good poutine needs the right fries that survive the gravy and the cheese has to melt. Saint Bock gets all that right.
This place is great! They offer a variety of different craft beers in a casual atmosphere. My boyfriend and I ordered (pretty much) every house-made beer on their menu. We also ordered some eats which were good. All around a positive experience. Staff are very friendly. I speak French but my boyfriend doesn't and the staff were very accommodating to him. There are TONS of bars on Saint-Denis but Le Saint-Bock is worth a stopping in.
After dinner, we were looking for a close place to grab a drink so we decided to head to Le Saint-Bock. I've only been here one other time. We dropped in on a Tuesday evening (around 8:45pm) and the outdoor terrasse was packed. We went inside where there was a plethora of seats available. There's also multiple TV's inside. The beer menu is annoyingly only on screens but there is a food menu that they bring to the table. 44 different beers and ciders on tap. Service is spotty. - Triple brett chardo (#14) ($7.83) - Triple aux Bretts Fût De Chardonnay - CID original (#25) ($7.83) - basic cider, nothing special about this one. - Small beer mac & cheese ($9.00) - this came out piping hot. Don't touch the pan! Creamy and oozy. LSB beers aren't the best but aren't the worst either.
I read a lot a great reviews. I'm sorry to say I didn't feel that way. We ordered the pulled pork poutine and the American burger with poutine. The pulled pork was very dried out, almost like a jerky. The burger was fine but my knife, upon unwrapping, was very dirty. The waiter was sweet and when he needed to go behind the bar he said a waitress would take over. We finished eating about 10 minutes ago and still haven't see her. I really dislike leaving poor reviews. With luck our next stop will be better.
Again, another awesome bar that makes me love Quebec more, and hate France a bit more... Le Saint-Bock is a popular craft beer bar, the place was jam packed the Friday night we walked in. Luckily a couple of bar stools opened just as the wife and I approached. Thirty-something different craft brews are on draft at any given time, if you can't find something you are truly a hipster beer snob. The friendly bartender gave us a few pointers on all the stouts, belgians, and scotch ales, our favorites. Most beers are reasonably priced between $5-9, and I'm talking about Canadian dollars, so that's 20% off for us Americans. Sweet! We didn't order food, but the pub grub of burgers, nachos, and poutine all looked delicious. Despite the busy Friday crowd, the nice cordial barman gave us complimentary samples of the beers he thought we'd like too...that would NEVER happen in France. A couple locals chatted us up too... good times...I love Montreal and Quebec!
Don't let the fact that it is directly next to a strip club scare you away. They have the 4 largest collection of bottled beers so you will definitely find a beer that makes you happy, plus, they brew their own beers on site as well. The pouting is delicious. The cheese curd is unpasteurized and fresh (can't get that in the states). The gravy is beef broth and has beer mixed into it.... just don't add ketchup or they will give you weird looks, it's not accepted here. The bathrooms are downstairs and you need to go down some narrow steps...if you are drinking, you might need an escort to help you down.
Wonderful beer selection, cool vibe and friendly/efficient service! Came here on a Thursday night after a Habs game to meet a dear friend and even though it was crowded, was able to snag a table. The waiter was very quick and kept all his tables full of beer! I like how you can view their beers online (or on your phone) as well as on the screens on the wall. The screens have a lenghty cycle time so sometimes you have to wait to see about a particular beer but there's no waiting on your phone. This is a great place to have some delicious craft beers and hang out.
This restaurant was our meeting spot for this fantastic craft beer tour that we took on our first day in Montreal. We spent about an hour in here as a group, before moving on to our second stop. Our tour group had a small section of tables clustered together, close to the bar. There we sat, getting schooled on proper tasting technique and sampling two of the bar's many draft beers. The first beer was the Calice, which is an American style IPA. They say that, at least, but it's far less hoppy than the IPA's that I'm familiar with. Maybe they make that comparison because it was just about as bitter as the IPA's I get at home. At any rate, though it was bitter, it wasn't overpowering, so it was easy to drink. We had a couple of people on the tour who were not drinking, so there was plenty of beer to go around, should we need seconds (and we did need seconds!) The second beer was the Encensoir, which was a smoked beer, and probably my favorite of the night. It was smoky, yes, but not overly smoky. It didn't taste like you were standing downwind of a raging BBQ, which was nice. It was smooth and dark, and paired well with the poutine sampler we were given. The poutine itself was...not my favorite. This was our first time trying it, and had it been up to me, after this sample I wouldn't have tried poutine again anywhere else. The gravy on the fries was good (and that's why our guide had chosen the Encensoir to pair - the smokiness of the beer would pair well with the beefy gravy), but other than that, the dish was kind of meh. The cheese curds dominated the small dish, and that's probably what turned me off to it. Not that I don't like cheese curds, because I do. I just prefer them melted (or so I came to find out). The wait staff was friendly and accommodating, given that three people on the tour had taken it upon themselves to order a full-on meal in the middle of the tour, and then moved tables a couple of times to boot. They have something like 47 beers on tap, and our guide mentioned something else about a staggering number of bottled beers for sale, but it was a long time ago and I was a bit buzzed by then (he was free with the refills, lemmetellya!) We wanted to go back to this restaurant to try their food and sample some of their other draft beers, but we ran out of time. I did enjoy the samples we had, though, and would definitely recommend it for those looking for a wide variety.
Pints and poutine!! Impressive and extensive beer selection, prime location on St. Denis, tasty comfort food, and the loungy patio make this restaurant/bar a huge draw. The patio was packed any time of day the weather was nice. Inside was inviting, but who wants to be inside during summer in Canada? Children are allowed on the patio up until 8 pm, which is a good indication the party starts around then. Server was very kind and timely throughout the meal. The poutine with jalapeños and sausage was especially delicious and not as hot as it appeared. The mac and cheese was not a favorite for children with the meat and beer flavor, but adults will gladly enjoy. Glad to see some salad options on the menu to help balance the rest of the glutinous food. Ideal place to lounge with friends and drink pints for hours. Credit cards accepted.
Mostly an expensive beer bar, with a massive selection to choose from. The prices are high, but the location is convenient, the crowd is nice, and there is a large selection. I thought that they accepted credit cards, but our waitress told us it was cash only, and you have to pay as you go. This can make the entire drinking experience stressful instead of just relaxing and drinking up a larger tab. The main reason I came here.. In search of framboise. I was only able to find one bottle of chilled Peche, and I drank that and left. However, for more of the beer-lover clientele, this place would be heaven.
This place is amazing! They brew some of the best beer in Montreal, hands down! my favorites were the passion fruit and pumpkin spice saison. Veronica was amazing and provided great conversation and tips for my other beer and food adventures in the city. They also have a "beer bible" of beers available from all around the world - ask them about it!

LOVED the place! Beer- what a selection! And for your convenience all the beers are listed on their website. We had the Pineapple Express and Pot Not Pot or something like that and the NW IPA. These are some great beers. Food- we started with the bacon nachos. Portions are humongous a d two of us were full after splitting the plate. Service- awesome! Super nice, friendly and helpful Plenty of seating. read more

Le Saint Bock has over 19 drafts on their white chalk board... what to drink?? I can't think properly when I am too excited, faced with too many choices: local Quebec beers from various microbreweries. I ended up just ordering by numbers... lucky number 17 and 19 at $4.13 each. The low armchairs are quite comfy... and music quite loud... I can only see my friend's mouth moving but cannot hear a thing.....it is quite dark inside too and everyone looks good?! Maybe just a little too much to drink? Waitress is super nice and ask if we need separate checks for our beers?? read more

While in Montreal, the family decided to stop by this pub for a drink. Le Saint-Bock has both indoor and outdoor seating available. We chose to enjoy their outdoor setting. Sweet Jesus was my choice of beer. It is one of the beers made by Le Saint-Bock. Tasted great! One of the best micro brews that I have ever drank. Pulled Pork Nachos that we all shared was not so good. Meat was bland. Chips were stale. I do not recommend. My brother n'law had a flight of beers. He said they all tasted pretty good. The ladies chose some mixed cocktails. Neither was impressed. To summarize, try their micro brews especially their Sweet Jesus!! Stay away from their mixed cocktails and nachos. read more

Stumbled upon this spot on my most recent trip to Montreal and it didn't disappoint. Need to kill time as me and my boy waited for our air bnb check in and this was the perfect place. The atmosphere was great considering it was 12pm. Good music had TVs going in the background. The honey garlic wings were great and the drinks were decently priced. The bartender was really nice and accommodating. read more

Le Saint-Bock was located across from our 2nd B&B! The bartenders were very friendly and spoke English too!! Dan and I sat at their bar and ordered a Caesar salad and homemade beer battered onion rings with house made honey mustard. They had over forty beers on tap and let us taste a few before making our decision. Number 1-16 were brewed there. I first ordered a passion sour beer and I think Dan got an IPA The Caesar salad was delicious! The dressing was homemade and it came with real bacon bits. The onion rings were the best we've ever had!! Made with beer brewed there (beer battered) and the house made honey mustard, WOW!! I could see why this restaurant and brewery became busier and busier!! I even had a Kombucha they had on tap (think it was mint citrus). It's the new rage here and Montreal is into the natural probiotics (Kombucha is fermented black and green tea). When we visit Montreal, QC again were definitely going to St. Bock again!! read more

Do you like beer? No, I mean, do you REALLY like beer? Doesn't matter. Either way, Saint Bock has you covered. They have an ever-evolving beer list written on a chalkboard outside. We came here twice in a week and the list almost completely changed over. They brew a lot of their own stuff, and what we tried was really, really good. They had a great sour beer called the Abomination, which was gone the second time we showed up. Too bad. They have a beer with vanilla flavors that they serve with a marshmallow. Plus, they also have a full bar so if you want a cocktail or mixed drink, you can have that too. But really, why? They also have the famed Beer Bible, which is a list of a ton of imported and specialty beers. We had a few of those as well. Our waiter JC was a super cool guy who gave us wonderful recommendations (and also shots). My favorite was the Cantillon Gueuze Lambic. Great place to sit curbside and people watch (read; watch girls walk by in very short shorts). It's also next door to a gentlemen's club, so that's always interesting. read more

My girlfriend and I were searching out places with good beer, and found our way here one evening. However, part of that was because Yelp lists it under "Bars, Brasseries, Steakhouses". First, and foremost, it's not a steakhouse. Unless you count hamburgers as steak, I didn't see any steak on the menu. This isn't a negative take on Le Saint-Bock, but rather Yelp. We sat down at the bar, and had a number of beers from their long list. A few of their own brews, as well as a few Belgians. Having Duchesse de Bourgogne on tap is unusual for many bars. . . they had two different "vintages" of it (2016, and 2014). I had both, though honestly I couldn't tell what the difference was, just that there was a difference. Either way, everything they had on tap looked good (except for kombucha. . . that just doesn't sound like something I want). We had some nachos, and a bowl of French onion soup. Both were good. The bar staff was friendly, and seemed to answer peoples questions about the beers happily. They were happy to speak in English for us since our French is horrible/non-existent (we were happy about this, since it seemed that almost everyone there was speaking French). Overall, a great experience with a very good beer selection. read more

Le Saint Bock, where have you been all my life? This bar is fantastic! It is a Belgian beer drinker's paradise. They have quite an extensive bottled beer collection from around the world and 20 beers on tap. The on-tap beers are a combination of their own brews and other local brews. We tackled the 20 beer sampler and it was well worth it! Most of the beers were Belgian style, but there were also some IPAs and Stouts. Everything was delicious. Also, they have quite an impressive collection of glassware. (An additional note: Not everything on their bottle list was in stock.) The decor and atmosphere are very chic as well and the bar chairs are quite cozy. As is the case with many bars in Montreal, the bar tenders are pretty hands off until you ask for their assistance, but they are genuinely helpful and friendly. This is a bar that every beer drinker must visit if you are in the area. read more

I was on a mission to find a local brewery with a solid stout and an enticing menu. Le Saint-Bock did not disappoint. Their milk stout Malédiction is delicious, so I was very happy there. Factor in the beet salad, which is everything a beet salad should be, and the brewer's nachos, and you have a pub that I would happily frequent if I was lucky enough to live in Montreal. There was one blemish on the experience: service. Although I tried to learn some French before my trip, I was too inexperienced to hold meaningful conversations, and I was grateful for the server who could bridge the language gap with her excellent English. Unfortunately, her shift must have ended. We sat at the bar for 30 minutes, signaling with my limited French, trying to get the attention of any of the 5 other staff--who were right in front of us. Finally, another patron next to me intervened. I don't have the impression this is typical of Le Saint-Bock, but consider yourself warned. I was feeling pretty insignificant by the time I left...but wasn't down for long. Walking along Saint Denis in the sunshine is too much fun to stay grumpy. (Having a Malédiction buzz helped, too!) read more
First off anyone who knows me, knows I like a good pint of beer or 3, I even get specialty beers for my B-Day and Christmas. Well the Saint Bock is going to have me working for a few years trying to get through their massive menu of specialty beers. Alot of them are Belgium, but hell the Belgiums do great beer, my favorite of the night was a French beer called "page 24" If memory serves me right it came in a blond, amber and possibly a dark.... but I only had 2. At 10.00 a bottle it's not cheap, but you get what you pay for. As for the staff, awesome. I felt like we had a wine sommelier, but for beer. He made great suggestions based on what we liked in terms of day to day beers. The food was pub food but very good and well priced. The ambiance was great, and the music was not too loud. It often bugs me when you go somewhere with a group of friends and we all have to shout in each others ears because the bar has the music cranked up. all in all a big thumbs up... read more
