Lord William Pub brings some edge to Griffintown’s drinking scene, housed in an old ironworks building near the Lachine Canal. It’s the kind of place where a Caesar isn’t just a Caesar—it’s stacked with bacon, shrimp, or a hot pepper that means business. Brunch leans indulgent (think fried chicken and pancakes with Bailey’s custard), and the pub fare hits the right notes between classic comfort and thoughtful twists.

The beer selection is solid, cocktails are dialed in, and the terrasse feels like a well-kept secret. Mondays bring a trivia night that’s anything but typical, and comedy shows round out the calendar. Lord William keeps things local, from the farm-to-table ingredients in the kitchen to partnerships that support nearby businesses. Whether you’re in for a game, a drink, or just a night of good company, this spot delivers with zero pretense and just the right amount of rowdiness.
