Wonderful addition to the Jean Talon Market neighbourhood! This 'Pub Festif' has a ground-level covered patio on the north side of the market, and a second floor with wide open windows overlooking the sprawling vegetable stalls and nearby church spires. The interior is simple and lovely. The staff are bilingual and super friendly. The fries and poutine are tasty, and the pints of beer are most welcome. The rest of the food is a little underwhelming - maybe the presence of all that surrounding local goodness made me set my hopes too high, but I would love to be able to go to this pub and see new items on the menu featuring seasonal goodies and shoutouts to the farms and craftspeople being featured.
