RESERVATIONS ARE FOR MEALS ONLY. Please advise us if you are running late otherwise your reservation will be cancelled after 20 minutes.

Featuring a plethora of interesting 1920s-inspired design details, the Dominion Square Tavern is a cut above your average downtown eatery. Enjoy simple classic fare or british dishes such as mussels and fries, Cornish hen, scotch egg or bangers and mash in a warm, inviting atmosphere. Top it off with a sinful serving of sticky toffee pudding. A full bar, cocktails, wine and beers await.

Not available on OpenTable

We are regulars of this nice "gastro pub." Cocktails are well crafted, and the food is fine comfort fare that satisfies a broad range of customers. You have to try the Prince Edward Island oysters: they are some of the best in town.

I reserved for a group of 8 and was the only one to have been here before. Arrived a bit earlier than expected yet our table was already available and everyone was glad to come out from the cold. Service was very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Food was very tasty and portion size was just right. Braised beef, sirloin and salmon were our choices and everyone enjoyed their plates. Classic cocktails were done just right! Definately would recommend this place. My guests were thoroughly impressed. Thank you!!

This restaurant tavern is absolutely, without a doubt, hands down, swear-to-God, fannnnnntastique!! I have been at least a dozen times after only discovering it late in 2019 and we are welcomed like family every time! In fact, everyone from the hostesses, to the waiters and bartenders are incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, les agencements sont fantastique, la variete est splendide! This is the complete package for anyone that prefers incredible intimacy, gentle lighting & candles! OMG, the music!!! Are you kidding! Son, it's outta the park!! as vulgar as this may sound, I've spent more $$$ at this tavern in the last 6months than I've spent in all other restaurants in the last 5 years! did I mention the drinks!?! Smoothe as silk and keep 'em coming!!! The only other thing I can think to say is that, "I wish I owned it!" Adam Brooker MUHC.

Les "fleurs" de saumon fumé qui restent à l'air si longtemps qu'elles sont toutes sèches à l'extérieur, avec une texture caoutchouteuse... ark. Un peu de Saran, gang? Un bruit assourdissant, et un serveur qui était, ma foi, exaspéré. Notez que je le serais aussi, travailler dans autant de décibels. Bel endroit, mais faut vouloir hurler pendant tout le repas.

Great place to take someone as introduction to pub food Montreal style. It was refined, quiet (as it was not during lunch rush hour) and the service impeccable. My out of town guest was impressed how lunch can be uplifting. Not for vegetarians though.
