Also known as "Le Vieux Dublin," this cozy spot between St. Catherine Street and de Maisonneuve Boulevard was going strong while other Irish pubs were still a twinkle in their owners' eyes. The décor is practically non-existent, but the ambience is real, with none of the hype that sometimes makes you cringe at the mention of Irish pubs. It is here that the traditionalists gather on St Paddy's, packed in tighter than sardines, to listen to authentic music or to make as much noise as possible.
