Durty Nelly's Irish Pub

Visit Tuesday December 9, 2025. Mobility impaired persons should expect a few steps. Nearby paid parking lots and on-street parking. Lovely authentic pub decor, great atmosphere. Solid selection of beverages and food offerings. Staff were attentive, friendly and professional. Just had some chicken wings and a pint of Keith's, both of which were fantastic, although the (vegetable) dipping sauce was not my vibe. Would definitely recommend.

I ordered the fish that was very tasty with a crispy batter. The Caesar salad was the highlight for me and I’ll probably order it as a main next time. My Dad absolutely loved his seafood chowder. My husband had the Reuben sandwich and fries. He had me try both and it was the best Reuben I’ve tried in a long time. The staff was beyond friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend for a great pub experience in the city.

Unfortunately we were overcharged for our meals. Also for our non-alcoholic drinks. The waitress took our bills as soon as we started to pay for it so we didn't even have a receipt to look back on and see what was charged. We did tip even though we were missing all of our gravies. Usually it's a fun place to go but we had two birthdays and left leaving feeling very frustrated and hungry.

Great little spot we went to in the summer for a friends birthday! Exactly what you’d expect good pub food, good deals, fun staff. And perfect for people watching.

This is my favourite place to stop in for a bite and a few pints when I'm killing time downtown. I usually go alone and sit at the bar or on the patio in the summer. I always feel welcomed and comfortable, which is important to me as a woman who likes to enjoy a few drinks on her own occasionally. Sometimes I'm down for shooting the shit, other times I just want to swill some beer and eat some food alone. The bartenders are great either way. The seafood chowder is my go to. And the Guinness brown bread.....the best.

First off, we came for food, not for drinks. The ambience and service looks like it would be a great place for drinks. However, the food was pretty bad. The Irish Stew was undercooked (beef and potatoes) and sour. The seafood chowder was also way too salty.

The atmosphere at this bar is amazing. The drinks taste great, and I’ll definitely come back.

The service was up and down. Likely because of the students. I enjoyed my time throughout the day but going back in the night was very crowed and hard to hear. Not saying that’s a bad thing business wise but the door service was intimidating and the inside staff/bouncers had it out for me I guess. Wasn’t allowed to take my sweater off or stand near the stage with a drink.
