Originally a hotel restaurant in 1927, with a short stint as a gay bar in the 70s, the Tavern was reinvented in 2009 as an English gastropub.  The beautiful interior maintained its \"old-world\" heritage throughout the decades.\n\nThe menu screams \"English\" with classic dishes such as Scotch egg, bangers & mash and pudding.  The cocktail selection rounds up the Tavern's old-world feel with a focus on gin, rye, sours and homemade tonic.\n\nDominion Square Tavern is one of downtown Montreal's greatest additions in the last five years or so.  The food and drinks are solid, the vintage decor is unique and the mood is trendy/smart, be it for dinner or drinks at the bar.
