We are in Montreal working a conference and another attendee recommended Nyks.  After a 13 hour day on our feet we trudged there from our hotel.  Once in, we knew we were in the right place.  Seated in a cozy booth with drinks delivered quickly we perused the menu.  Everything ordered was great, but to us the standout was the fish and chips - what do they do to make cod so good?  Drinks were well done and service just right.  If I lived here this would be my go to pub.
