    Walk in here knowing what you're getting yourself into, and you're going to have a hell of a night.

    It doesn't matter if you're a college student out for post-exam libations or part an older pack, just here for the pool tables and slot machines.

    The staff are fine. They keep the beer flowing! Even better, they'll mix you combat juice (a pony juice combo of about 10 different kinds of liquor) until the sun comes up. If you and your buddies have inhaled enough combat juice to begin your own impromptu dance party? That's fine, too.

    It's low-lit, but the pizza is decent enough, there's a few pool tables to go around, and it's got a great location. My favourite dive!

    I've been to Garneau Pub a few times. It's a really good place to have a birthday or to gather with a group of friends. It might look like a bit of a dive, but it's actually just a no-frills, laid-back atmosphere, which I really like. The place is pretty dark, and they place some okay music. The food is pretty good, especially the pizza.

    The staff is really nice. When it was my friend's birthday, she really wanted a warm alcoholic drink, so the waitress congered up something that they wouldn't normally serve.

    In the Winter, you might get confused as to where the bathroom is, because a heavy rug works as a sliding door that covers the hallway entrance to the bathroom. It's to keep the cold air from getting into the pub.

    I think Garneau Pub is one of the best neighbourhood pubs in the city, and it's an excellent place to gather for great conversation over some great food.

    Garneau Pub has pretty good pizza but I didn't have a great experience.

    The staff was really rude.. that might not be the right word actually. They just seemed like they didn't want us to be there or they had some place else to go. We felt really uncomfortable. The place is pretty laid back and simple. Could be a good spot to go with friend's.

    I have heard good things about it so I am willing to give it another chance.

    I come here for the pizza. One side of the establishment is the pub itself; the other side is more of a family dining area serving pizza, pasta, and a few other entrees. The pizza is very good - I generally get a personal sized one with a few vegetarian toppings. The crust is crispy and the toppings are piled on. The pub part is kind of dark and not huge - a great place to grab a meal and a few drinks with friends. It is quite a popular place to hang out, and stays a lot more quiet than other pubs and bars in the area.

    Every once in a while I get a craving to go to Garneau Pub. It's a pretty regular place in terms of the space and crowd. But their food puts me in my comfort zone if I'm feeling under the weather, or I've had a good workout and deserve a treat. They have awesome pizza, a thicker crust with tons of cheese. And, it's cut in squares, not triangles, which I LOVE because the huge pieces in the middle with crustless edges are SO good. Their lasagna is also really good, it's huge and cheap. This is a good place to come for a few drinks. They have two pool tables, but other wise, I wouldn't want to spend a whole night here. It'd get kinda boring, in my opinion. The crowd's not rowdy, but rather quite low-key. It gets really busy on weekends, and it's not too big of a place, so it gets pretty full. There's a pretty large row of VLTs and always people popping coins into the slot. The place is OK, but bordering on dinge. But it's been a neighbourhood fixture for over 10 years. I'd say it's 'cause of the food.
