A big bar with a laid-back soul, Church St. Pub is a newer player in Verdun that feels like it’s been part of the neighbourhood forever. Taking over the old Chez Anas spot, it kept the tropical bones and added some rowdy spirit—think Dorito-crusted burgers, deep-fried Mars bars, and a rooftop terrace that comes alive in the summer. The menu’s playful, the drinks are cheap, and the crowd’s a mix of regulars, quiz-night fiends, and live music lovers. Inside, there’s a quieter back room with a pool table if you need a breather. Out front? It’s all about cold pints, solid pub fare, and bartenders who actually seem like they’re having a good time. Whether you’re coming off the metro or rolling in by bike, this is a reliable bet for casual drinks, rowdy nights, or just a fish-and-chips fix that won’t disappoint.
