Can't beat the food or the atmosphere... Two thumbs up
Smells like stale beer but the food was tasty if a little expensive. Nice atmosphere of you can ignore the smell.
Occasionally hard to hold conversations over the live music, otherwise fantastic!
First time visiting. Food was great. The waiter suggested a very good local beer. can't ask for more.
Love the food
Good live entertainment, he food is decent, a fun night out for people.
Busy place but here was good live music and tasty food so I'm happy☺
Good beers on tap, friendly staff
Beauty of an irish pub .. muscles and scallops were amazing.. good service .. wish I could have been there for the bands on fridays
1 star just because we know our server at least was nice. Came in with my girlfriend and her parents. Keep in mind we both work in the industry. We got seated and were told the kitchen was an hour behind so at least we had that warning. We ordered the bucket of shrimp to start right away in hopes that 10 shrimp wouldn’t take a full hour. It took 70 minutes... Then our mains came out 10 minutes after. My girlfriends Caesar wrap came out with bacon after she said she was vegetarian and asked to sub the chicken in the wrap for mushrooms. They forgot the side to my salad. The rest of our food was dry and looked like it sat under the heater forever. I don’t mind waiting a bit for food, more than an hour is pushing it for sure. But at least if it’s gonna take that long, make sure it’s fresh and comes out right. And if it doesn’t, at the very least take the pop off and definitely don’t charge for 1 refill!
If not for the license plates, I would have thought I was in Ireland! Beautiful decor, Irish music playing In the background ! All the Irish tap beers, many Irish whiskeys and a great menu with authentic dinners and pub grove! Friendly staff and comfortable seats and stools! Live entertainment and reasonable prices too! Phil , the owner talked with the patrons and was very nice! The food was tasty and reasonable too! We're back in town in September and will definitely be stopping in here again!
Wonderful experience. They are using the RANS check in system for contact tracing, proper covid protocols and service was friendly and fast, even though they were as full as capacity would allow. Great tasting food and the live music was a great addition to feeling like a normal night out.
Food was absolutely delicious and they had the most vegetarian options I've seen on any menu in Canada. The owner was also a lovely man who gladly had the chats with everyone. And the bar staff were happy to have a chat despite being run off their feet.
Gave me food poisoning. Worst food in Sydney.
Had stew and onion rings. Both best I've had! Highly recommend!
Great time, friendly staff
Good food and friendly service
Food and service was good...could improve on wait time.
The best food. So many great choices though, need to go back a few times
Food has gone down hill since Covid.
Service is great, food tasty, waiters are helpful and beer cold!
We came to the Pub for the first time on the Labour day evening and it was full house. Covid rules and protocol are followed. Service was very fast and with the nice personal touch. We ordered heart warming Lobster Flambé and like it very much. We felt welcomed and respected. It is great place to go for a quick snack or the full meal, and Yes, they do have interesting beers. In a warm day you can enjoy patio with nice view to the shore. The pub has accessible entrance and a parking lot next to.
Live music is a bit too loud but that's true most places with live music these days. Service was great and food was tasty!
Excellent service and food. Location is well set up for social distancing without affecting atmosphere.
Ate at this establishment last evening. We were in town for a concert and not enough staff in for the crowed. Only ordered appetizers and waited an hr! Had to leave to make the concert and was treated very rudely but a waitress whom grabbed the take out tray out of my hands and threw my food in it and shoved it at me. Will not be back!!! Awful service????
Warm friendly place with an excellent selection of beers on tap and tasty food. Very friendly staff.
Staff was nice and friendly, and outdoors was nice, but $46.00 for 6 Beers is outrageous. Not sure if this tourist pricing or what, but that’s very high for drinks. Should have just bought Beers on the Cruise Ship for that price. Wouldn’t go back.
Good taps, friendly service, too long for food.
Awesome atmosphere, great food + drinks and great live music!
Awesome food grate place
Everything was great but the ceasar salad
Very good food and drinks
Really excellent menu with a ton of beer on tap.
Absolutely a good experience we were 3 customers and all of us had a good experience. Very happy, good service, good food. Is a must for all ages to try out
Had lunch the place was not very busy . Have a feeling it swings at night.
Good pub for a meal
The staff is super friendly and the food is delicious!!!
Amazing service, and a very friendly & welcoming environment
Service and food was terrific.
Nice atmosphere and beer!
Great service and great gluten friendly food????
Good food, and drinks, at a reasonable price...that old tavern feeling...
A classic of maritime entertainment, you can't go to Sydney and not hit up the Triangle. It's a really big place so no shortage of seating. The apps are good, the local beer selection is excellent and the live music is fantastic. The staff is friendly, as you might expect on Cape Breton. Absolutely worth the visit. See if you can get someone to teach you to jig while you're there!
The food was good and the staff was very friendly.
Good atmosphere, but food menu could use some sprucing up
Excellent service, even better food!!
Great as always. Tried the shepperds pie...OMG in love with it. I'm a SP fan so it was a big deal. Great music, I enjoy food and drinks with friends while someone plays a guitar in the background. Suggestion...upgrade the chairs. Nothing has really changed there since it opened and I'm pretty sure I saw plastic over a broken window piece by our seat.
Had the nachos and Irish nachos split between our table. Both were fantastic. The regular nachos are enough to feed two adults. Lots of food on the plate, with toppings mixed all through which was nice. The Irish nachos were a little smaller but just as tasty. Different chips and different toppings. Plenty of sour cream and salsa on the side. Everything seemed fresh and tasted great. Highly recommend.
Good food
Mediocre food served in a friendly and nice atmosphere.
Not so attentive waitress
We had fun listening and dancing to the live music. Good drinks at fair prices. Plenty of space. The service was okay, not great. I'll be back for sure!
Nice atmosphere, great server. Food was well prepared. Recipes were very tasty. Lamb shank was superb. Shepherds pie a tad salty, but yummy. Mediterranean board was amply satisfying, and seafood chowder checked all the boxes. Well done.
Food and drinks were great and the service was very friendly!
The STAFF is amazing. 5 stars The placement of the stage is poor. It should be on the upper level where the entertainment can be seen by all patrons. The owner was there talking to people the whole night while his (very short staffed) bar and restaurant was experiencing longer than usual wait times. No fault of the fantastic wait staff. Tje wait staff were so busy you could se the bed of sweat on all of them. This owner needs to do some soul searching, and practice what he preaches. If you are the owner of a business, you should at least be there to work, not act like one of the patrons.
Awesome as always!!
The restaurant is nice, good ambience. The food is good. open till late.
Great place. Good food. Great atmosphere
Everything was great but the ceasar salad
Had liver onions and mash potatoes. ...it was outstanding...lots of different types of beers...nice deck with heat at night
Great selection of tap beers. Meal quantities are large.
Busy spot. Very noisy. Waiter was excellent. Food was delicious.
Great food, wonderful atmosphere. Love the Irish music and dark wood decor! Service was slow but we weren't in a hurry. Had the surf n' turf and it was delicious and well cooked.
Amazing place. Definitely plqnning on returning.
great nachos and drinks. bartender was great and always checking up on us as we were the only 2 outside on the front. we had a great time.
Dined here a few times. It’s hit or miss whether you think the food is worth the price you pay, depending on what you order. Fish and Chips is pretty good, although fish is greasy. Clubhouse is not recommended, tasteless chicken between …
Food was ok. Decor was amazing and awesome music!! Service was so so.
Might be my first single ⭐ cause I never left any eatery after waiting 15 min for anyone showing any interest to ask for ordering. Actually we didn't even get the menu. There were some large groups but more than half the tables were empty. Can't imagine how this place deal when full. Sorry ????
Great food and music...
Surf and turf was excellent
Delicious food - very nice staff
Great rooftop patio with a nice view. Fantastic service and fantastic food! Make sure you try the Guinness Gingerbread, you really won't want to share it!
Great service !! Always love the food and atmosphere
Busy spot Saturday evening. Great food and live music. Really good waiter. Food was timely for how busy it was.
We had some finger foods that were Great. Our visit was on St Patty's Day, and although they were booked up, we were able to have a few and listen to some tunes for about 2 hours. The table was booked for 5, we were there at 3. Awesome Service, awesome entertainment
Played trivia, had some nice food and beers, and had a great time!
Good food and service!
Awesome service, great food and drinks ???? ???? ????
I had a really amazing steak wrap and really enjoyed it. The experience out on the roof top patio was great. The only thing that wasn't great about the experience was the amount of out of stock alcohol.
A little worried upon first impression, then the food came. I was surprised and very impressed. I will come back again.
This place is cute, food was good and the service was good. Would come here again.
Amazing service amazing ambiance amazing food nuff said lol!
A must in Sydney NS. Surf’n Turf was sensational! To tell you the truth I wasn’t expecting an Irish pub to have such brilliant food. The steak even on its own was awesome. Best so far of our trip! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Expensive, and food took too long to get to the table.
Horrible staff, was physically assulted with 8 eye witnesses and got thrown out based on a girls word over mine. I think she was hooking up with the sleezy bouncer lol. Went back the next day to check cameras, guess what, there was none! Place is disgusting, only reason it stays in business is drunk teenagers on the weekends. (Jimmy the short bouncer loves that, eyein up teenage girls every chance he gets).
Delicious and great view. Nice fusion cuisine like curried chicken max and cheese.
Have tried this restaurant in Halifax so thought since it was so close to the hotel that definitely had to try it. Got the hangover burger and it was one of the best burgers I had, was up there with some of burgers I've had in Manhattan
Good Ford,atmosphere, bad internet Connection.
Great Belfast Burger...highly recommend it !!
A great place for a meal.
Great service good food
Great food, good service. What else do you what??, oh ya there's live music too!!
We had to leave because the wait time for food was one hour.
Great food and friendly service. Live music on Saturday was great highly recommend.
Great food and selection of beers!!!
Great food.
Love the outdoor rooftop patio. Great service.
Amazing. Doesn't matter whether it is Halifax, Moncton or Sydney.... it is always an amazing experience!!!!!
I had the Ancient Mariner - very good! Nice patio overlooking the harbour. Friendly staff.
Have you ever had food that just makes you sit there all quiet and savor every bite? This is the place to come.
Had the Irish curry! Was awesome with good service and variety of draft beer.
Tasty food, great music, not so attentive staff
Perfect battered fish, amazing burgers! Server was very nice. We left happy with a very full belly!! ????
Great place, food and atmosphere. Awesome live music. And the taps! Big Spruce and Breton Breweries! Awesome local brews. Need one say more? Oh wait, I will...Sunday steak and steak special is a big fav!
Amazing
Absolutely loved that experience. Went for dinner by myself (mmm fresh fishnchips!), then the next day for supper (veggie burger). Food was delicious and so was the loical crewery beer :) Great place, super terrasse, good service, very good food. Had a blast ;) Definitely a place to discover and visit when in Sydney :) Apparently offer shows during the high season. :)
Service was slow, food was Ok
Excellent food. All protocols of masking and social distancing were met. Overall, an enjoyable experience.
Good place in town....to sit and relax little bit
Definitely try the house IPA
On our epic cabot trail bike trip we started and finished here. Probably the best liver and onions I've had were on my friend's plate. It was busy both nights, the service was good, but things were slow due to the busyness, but not to the point where it detracted from the evening. The outside patio was beautiful.
Food was good, service excellent, and great job on following Covid requirements
Nice place. Lots of people.
Great food, live music, and outdoor patio!
Great brunch, oddly quiet
Worst place I ever went to. I'd give it a -5 stars if that was possible l. Staff is rude, it's over priced, and and service is horrible if your not a girl. They have a bunch of pervert guys working, dont be surprised if a bouncer tells you to leave for no reason just so he can give your table to girls. Yes that happened.
Great food, live music!
Great atmosphere and great menu selections.
Superb food and atmosphere
Nachos and potato skins were excellent. Live band was good. Sound was good.
The STAFF is amazing. 5 stars The placement of the stage is poor. It should be on the upper level where the …
Excellent service, venue and of course beer!
This place has excellent vibe and food is great, with live music... Hit or miss on service sometimes but still a 4 star. Sometimes they close early if not busy.
Delicious food & excellent selection of local beer.
Great place for a meal
Today was my first visit to the Old Triangle. Needless to say I will be going back. Food was delicious. Very clean and nice staff
The food was good and the staff was very friendly.
The food here is good, but the service when I came in was extremely bad. We waited and waited and no one helped us. Servers here try to avoid you and instead the bartenders have to help out.
Had a wonderful meal there last night. It was served piping hot...it was delicious. The service was fast and friendly. The music was very good. Just loud enough that you could still talk. I would reccomend they jave the mac and cheese on as a special more often...it is incredible. Give this place a try.
I loving being able to sit outside. I also like the pub atmosphere. The thing I like the most right is it the only place you can get your beer is a glasses. I can not wait until the live music is able to start again ????.
This place is great! Amazing food and live music.
Good food... good beer. The bartender (sorry i don't know his name) is a really nice guy. Went one night and he remembered us the next night and what beer i drank.
Great atmosphere. Authentic Irish music. Wednesday wing night highly recommended
Awesome, great service and food. Really enjoyed the live music.
Sever did a good job but the food wasn't great. Too heavy on the mashed potato and raw green onion. The slaw was too sour and the relish too sweet. Don't think I'll go again.
Fun place
Great spot! Medeteranian platter... Curry chips.... And bartender Gord is awesome!!
Nice selections for everything..
Food is consistently fabulous! Warm, welcoming atmosphere, and friendly personal service. Best fish cakes on the island!
The service and the food were phenomenal, plus the live entertainment was excellent.
Have the steak and steak. 10/10
Great food, great service.
Very Irish Style restaurant and the lam leg is so good
Big venue, kinda slow service even though place was empty, good food, good beer, didnt stay open late on a sunday though, bummer!
Excellent food. All protocols of masking and social distancing were met. Overall, an enjoyable experience.
Great all around. Loved it
Nice place to have a beer n to listen live music
Ok food
Deep fried pepperoni!
Good food, amazing staff, highly recommend
Nice atmosphere, waiter/barman was helpful, patient and when we didn't know what local beer to try, he gave us a few samples. The food was very good too. I would recemmend.
Wings were awesome!! Nachos were loaded with lots of cheese and chicken and Jason was a perfect server!!!
This location is going down hill. Bathrooms are not clean. Entrance doors are filthy. Music has been nothing to make me want to go...Food is mediocre at best...poorly run ...it really dissappoints me .... I only go now when Evans and Doherty play....the other times I have gone have beeen too much of a disappointment...giving up this one as a favorite....
We visited the restaurant on our visit to Sydney. We were very disappointed in everything. There were only two servers for the entire restaurant which meant everything took very long. I ordered mussels, they tasted like I was licking the bottom of the ocean floor. I ordered a hot turkey sandwich and it tasted like it came frozen. The vegetables were clearly not fresh, the bread was stale, gray must have came powdered. Everything was gross, I ate one bite and could not stomach it. We were informed afterwards that they were planning on taking it off the menu. Perhaps letting us know when we ordered them would have been a better option.
Expensive. Food is no sl tasty as it suppose to be for its price. Will not come back next visit to Sydney.
Great staff. Great entertainment. And the best wings around
Awesome place, drinks amazing!!!
It was ok. Definitely better places around to get fish and chips. Service was super slow it took forever.
As I've been to Sydney before, I thought I'd try one of the restaurants that I didn't make it to in the past. The restaurant was centrally located and had plenty of customer parking. The vibe was great and the staff were friendly. Unfortunately I opted for the "Steak, Steak and Stein" special which was two 5oz steaks with one side and also coleslaw. I asked for "medium" and ended up with super well done, which kinda turned me off. The side salad was about 8 small leafs lol, and lastly the coleslaw was nothing more than shredded cabbage with a pinch of salt, a tad bit of oil and vinegar (pretty lackluster). Wish I could say something better. When you travel, you really look forward to good meals.
Great Irish bar. Friendly staff. Try the lobster avocado BLT!
Nice pub and atmospheric music and waitress was awesome, but we had to wait way too long for our food. Fish pies tasted like there was no fish (but maybe it's just me) and Shepard's pie wasn't really a pie,.low on meat
What a terrible experience we had here. I took my boyfriend there for his birthday and we'll never be back. In the over 1 hour we were there they didn't even take our order for our main courses. It took over 20 minutes for them to bring one shot to the table. The dishes from our appetizers sat empty on our table forever and they never came to take them or our main order. The food was terrible and the pop was flat. 3 servers walked by us 15, if not 20 times. It wasn't busy either, there was us, one other table of two inside and 3 or 4 small tables outside. This isn't the first bad experience I've had here lately but it's definitely the last.
Hangover burger is good
Dear Old Triangle chefs, if you read these reviews, please stop the out-dated and repulsive practice of putting muscles IN SHELLS in your chowder. Most of the best “in tune” restaurants abandoned this disgusting exercise years ago. Where are your brains? NOBODY likes this, except out of touch, obtuse chefs who think they are doing something “artistic”. This has long been rejected as artistic. It’s not artistic. Ask any real artist. Artistic is producing something people actually like. NEWSFLASH: None of your customers like it! Nobody wants to order a chowder only to have to dig muscle shells out of it, get your hands covered in chowder, because muscle shells can’t be delicately removed from a chowder with utensils, and the bottom line is, why should this be put on the customer? The whole point of going to a restaurant instead of eating at home is to have the food prepared for you and ready to eat. READY TO EAT. Any restaurant that continues in 2019 to put muscle shells in the chowder will have them thrown out in a complete mess for your staff to clean up and get a bad review for the whole restaurant. So you are doing everyone a disservice, including the restaurant itself and the staff. Especially if the rest of the establishment is really great and has lovely staff. The mess that is left on the table is not pretty and I guarantee your staff doesn’t like this extra work you cause them either. If you insist on putting muscles in your chowder, shell them first. Maybe you don’t want to do that because it is too much work? Right. It is. Too much work. Don’t make your customers do what you don’t want to do. Get with the times and stop acting like you are a backward hick joint in Sydney Nova Scotia. Do better for them.
Exactly what you expect from a good Irish Pub! Great food, good portion sizes, fair prices! Beer selection is decent - the patio seems like it would be a great spot on a summer day! Great chain if you are looking for a dependable meal
Steak was done perfectly (medium rare:more rare than medium) and the roast potatoes were excellent.
Good food, friendly waiter
An expansive menu covers all of the bases and excellent service ties it all together. Live music and a large variety of local brews on tap makes for a welcoming atmosphere.
I love going to the old triangle! The food is wonderful! The atmosphere is so original for Cape Breton. It is a definite need to visit place in Sydney. They typically have live music which is always amazing! Some time people even get up to dance! Drinks are always spot on too!
Lobster in any ways is always good. Live Irish music really cool. Great place for lunch and dinner.
Steak was done perfectly (medium rare:more rare than medium) and the roast potatoes were excellent.
Live music. Very busy place. Reserve if possible. One of the better pubs i'd recommend in Sydney
Overpriced mediocrity. I never knew a potato fry soup existed until I ordered the poutine here. The $26 pitcher with half pint glasses was also a welcome treat.
Classic pub vibe, great whiskey selection and the best beef stew I have ever had. A little too busy and loud for my taste on Friday and Saturday nights though.
Bad service, over priced drinks and mediocre food.
Another great event at The Old Triangle Irish Alehouse on St. Patrick's Day!!!
Very enjoyable evening. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The food was very nice and the beer was cold and delicious. There were good options for craft beer which I really appreciate.
Cheap prices and good food, especially on Mexican Tuesday
Best meal that I had. It was my first time and wont be my last. Awesome waiter we had. Thanks for the great customer service.
Staff very friendly. Food is ok
Good food Great views good service once they found you wipe the table off but then left it wet the place can do with the good cleaning and the men's washroom was disgusting Owner was nice and come out put on the patio heaters Overall a good place with music but they need to watch the hygiene
Yummy food, great beer and wonderful service.
A little worried upon first impression, then the food came. I was surprised and very impressed. I will come back again.
Good taps, friendly service, too long for food.
Long wait times… because things are not okay as they are.. COVID and all. Stopped by for a pint, got a few shots and a very interesting little snack. Deep fried pepperoni, I am Russian and my favourite beer snack is fried bologna …
Great. Pricey but good services and food....
Went for brunch today. Had been a few times before and it was delicious. Today was the worst food experience ive ever had. Had the jonny mceldoo. Couldn't sub out my beans for some reason. Didn't understand because it never was a problem before. Breakfast came. Eggs were not how I ordered then. Bacon was soo crispy it tasted burnt. Potatoes were black and dry. Sausages were terrible over done and had a terrible taste, ham was underdone and the toast... oh wait! It never came. My girlfriends eggs Benny came no as she ordered and the waitress took it back and when it came out "fixed" the whole plate was litterlly swimming in hollandaise sauce. It was a sad sight. Like most people would have been embarrassed to serve it. To top it all off after I paid I got short changed 9 bucks by the bartender who had to make change for the waitress. She's tries to correct it and apologized a bunch but I just gave it to her for a tip as she was really nice. I dunno who the chef they had one was but he should start looking for another job. Caesars were great tho!
Great rooftop seating. Service was hit or miss but would recommend.
Best wings anywhere!
Great food and service
Great food and excellent service!
Delicious food and excellent atmosphere
Food is ok. Service is decent. There are better places to eat in downtown Sydney.
Excellent atmosphere with local musicians, very reminiscent of a true Irish pub.
Wonderful night out...live music and great service
They had really good live entertainment
Always a great atmosphere and great bar food. Great service
Nice interior, great views from the patio. Excellent selection of whiskey. Best beef stew I have ever had, or imagined. The place is extremely busy with college age drinkers on weekend evenings though, so if you're looking for a casual meal, stick to a weekday viait.
Was disappointed how they seemed to pay more attention to the younger crowd. Bypassed me for a few orders
The wait staff was ok but the wait time for our drinks then food was way too long for how slow it was at the time.
Very disappointed with the service and the food. Used to be a good place to go and enjoy the sunset on the deck and have a drink. Instead order a drink and never get it and then get charged for it. Also forgot the wife salad all together. Hope to see some new management. Cheers
Very Irish Style restaurant and the lam leg is so good
Awesome staff with decent food and beer selection.
Food was substandard at best, service was so-so and they started the live music at a really weird time.
Huge place, good food and service. Not very busy on a weeknight.
Been here twice in 3 days- really surprised at all the gluten-free options!! Would definitely recommend it.
Great atmosphere, good food, quick service, reasonable prices... what more could you ask for?
Good food, many draft beers
great bar. good music n food
Great place to drink and socialize.
Stopped in here before catching the boat to the Rock. Did not expect such great musical entertainment. Food was excellent and staff was great to us. Need one of these in Ontario too.
Most authentic Irish pub I've ever been to! You can choose to sit near the live music and participate, or sit more towards the front and enjoy your table. Irish stew was awesome--it tastes just like mum's. My friend got the cod fish n chips and loved it. Great, friendly, prompt service to boot! Would definitely return.
A franchise but has a variety of menu items, something for everyone. A private room that can seat more than 20. Recommended
Good food and good beer
Food and service was awesome!
Good food, good beer. The service was friendly and attentive. The music was a little loud and made talking at our table difficult, but at least it was also good.
Service was excellent and the food was great. I highly recommend the irish stew!
Great pub experience
Professional service, fresh food
Good experience overall, food was excellent, really enjoyed the sheppard's pie. Although we ate out on the deck the inside of the pub had a great traditional look to it with old photos up on the wall. Server was good, could have been a little more enthusiastic but was good otherwise. I would definitely recommend this place to others.
Good food good people
Excellent Marguerite pizza and plenty of beers to choose from if you're in the mood for a drink. Live music show was great.
Very nice place. Good service, music and food.
Stopped by while traveling and it's consistent with the other branches in the chain. Irish pub feel, good music and food. Staff were friendly and the food was great.
Great food and service. Only thing that ticked me off was this one guy who I assume was a manager or owner. He was onsite and obviously "worked" at the place but yet did nothing to help out the staff who were obviously quite busy. Spent the whole time we were there chatting with random guests, during which time he would pull his mask down, assuming he had it on at all during that appearance. Come on man when you see you staff is obviously busy give them a hand. Work the door, bus tables run condiments do something. And for god sakes keep on your mask. Not only is it the law but your staff are dying in them trying to breath as the are run off their feet. At least show some support by keeping your on for solidarity, even if you don't plan on doing anything to help them
Staff very friendly, food was excellent
Friendly people and great food.
Great roof top patio. Lots to choose from on the menu. Food and service were both good.
Alot of younger people
Busy, nearly a hour wait for the food.
Nice day for patio, awful day for service. Waited for 20 minutes without so much as a glance, water or menu from the waitress. Walked out.
I love going to the old triangle! The food is wonderful! The atmosphere is so original for Cape Breton. It is a definite need to visit place in Sydney. They typically have live music which is always amazing! Some time people even get up to dance! Drinks are always spot on too!
Food, service and setting excellent.
Very nice place with good food and on the weekend live music.
Today was my first visit to the Old Triangle. Needless to say I will be going back. Food was delicious. Very clean and nice staff
Absolutely terrible. From the service to the food.
Delicious! The clam chowder is a meal on its own. And they sure know how to make a pulled pork sandwich! Totally recommend this place.
A great downtown Sydney pub and restaurant. Always stop in on my stays. Great food and service. What I enjoy best is the Harp on tap -- my favorite Irish beer.
Great atmosphere and entertainment. Food mediocre. Nachos have sparse toppings. Could not taste any curry in the curry chicken, it had a rather burnt taste.
Belfast Burger was good. Fast service. Friendly.
Great food great service
Our go to restaurant in town. Never had a bad experience
Nice venue with good live music overshadowed by slow service. 2 beer and 2 shots should not require a 25 minute in a place half full. Perhaps not fully staffed yet due to just coming out of Covid restrictions.
Awesome food and great service
Great spot and great food.
Not enough stuff, food is ok
Occasionally hard to hold conversations over the live music, otherwise fantastic!
Stopped on for a bowl of Irish stew and it was delish!!! seeing and most importantly smelling other dishes going by has made the decision of going back!! fun east coast music playing that the entire crowd was into. A must place to go while in Sydney
A little expensive but close to the lick her store
First beer on the island for me and it was a great first one! 5/5
Great food would have loved to sit on patio but eauned I will definitely be back
Great pub
It's a nice atmosphere and good food.
Service…
First time here… Service was very good…..When our food arrived, it was not even lukewarm….I could have said something to the waiter, but we were very hungry…..Dissatisfied
I loving being able to sit outside. I also like the pub atmosphere. The thing I like the most right is it the only place you can get your beer is a glasses. I can not wait until the live music is able to start again ????.
Love this place, the food is good, the location is nice and live music really helps the Irish pub vibe
Best wings anywhere!
Very nice place with good food and on the weekend live music.
Regular pub food but good atmosphere definitely one of the better spots in Sydney
it was our first time here and had the spicy chicken stir fry so tasty
Reasonable prices good selection good stop for cruise passengers
Gave this location another chance, and joined some friends for dinner. Big mistake. I ordered pan fried haddock. It was oercooked, watery and tasteless. The service was slightly better than my last visit, but not enough to recommend.
We had some finger foods that were Great. Our visit was on St Patty's Day, and although they were booked up, we were able to have a few and listen to some tunes for about 2 hours. The table was booked for 5, we were there at 3. Awesome Service, awesome entertainment
Great service! Awesome food!
Food is great and live music is great
Beautiful place for sure. Out door seating Waitress was nice and friendly The food however was mediocre at best Tasteless and not hot I ate a 1/4 of my meal
21 dollars for a dried out hamburger never again
Had a great time. Music was great and the staff very friendly
Ate at this restaurant and had a meal that was ok but the service was awful ( long wait for food and drinks ) . Decided to give it another try this evening and it was actually worse . I went with a group of 6 people , we waited close to 2 hours before receiving our order & the food was awful . All 6 of us left very disappointed with the experience .
Mains were great. The sides were bland. The rooftop patio with the view was excellent we could've sat out the all night.
Worst quesidilla I've ever had, burnt on the outsides, soggy in the middle. Half filled, just pathetic for the price
A wonderful place, with a lovely view over the water. Staff were warm and welcoming, and super helpful. Food was superb, I had the Mac and cheese with added lobster, and my wife had the seafood chowder. We were both impressed with what we ordered. The pub was well looked after and clean, with plenty of character features. Will come again if we find ourselves in Nova Scotia again. 10/10.
Great beer
Food and service was great????????
Love coming here. The entertainment and atmosphere can't be beat! They have lots of dining space, and the food is delicious. Love the irish stew!
Not bad. Slow service.
Great atmosphere and good music
Great food, great service.
Pretty good food, although you only get one free refill of pop.
I had the Belfast burger.... this was delicious...great service !!
Service was excellent and the food was great. I highly recommend the irish stew!
Loved this place, Traditional Pub , good food, good atmosphere and good service.
Great place, we were visiting from out West and we stopped in. Food was very good, service was excellent. We greatly enjoyed the music of Andrew Doyle great way to end a long day of traveling. Well done Old Triangle Irish Alehouse!
We sauntered in off the street on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch on our way to Louisburg. We were greeted less than 1 minute of arriving and told to take a seat wherever we liked. The restaurant was very clean and everything you would wanna see/feel when walking into a good pub. There was only one server working, no other signs of staff anywhere. Inside was empty all but for one table but the patio was at half capacity. We loved the menu - making a choice was very hard! We waited a little while for our food to arrive but we watched the server running back and forth and doing a very fine job on his own! When the food arrived, the plating and presentation was awesome! My husband's fish and chips was very, very good, cooked to perfection. My Newfoundland Fish Cakes were the best I've had. Our server was pleasant and checked in with us regularly. On the way out, we both used the washroom and were super impressed with the cleanliness and "modern" amenities. The bathrooms were spotless. We can't wait to return on our next Cape Breton adventure to try more of the menu and maybe catch some live music!
Good food
Really nice spot with live music several times a week. Steak and haddock was awesome.
Food was good however service was very slow
Nice place a good selection of local brews and more.
Fantastic food and entertainment
Food was delicious. Friendly staff Wait time wasn't too bad. Good entertainment.
this place is great, but what truly makes it 5 star is the bartender Ken. Young guy who really knows his sports. he is always friendly and i try to sit at his end of the bar whenever possible. Kendalls customer service and kind demeanour is what keeps me coming back again and again.
Music was awesome. Food amazing. Service was excellent. Nothing at all to complain about!
Decent beer selection.
The food was awesome and my waitress was very nice.
Will not give them a single star. My two friends were already there, I went there with my other two friends . We requested menu and tried to call them for ordering our food. The server was so busy in taking order from the people who walked in after us. I know you guys were busy but though the way you treated us like we were not welcome up there and whenever we tried to call you guys . You guys just ignored us. This was my first and last visit at your restaurant.never ever see you guys back
Friendly staff, live music, central location, great pub food (huge servings), beer and wine.
Nice restaurant ????????????
Nice Irish pub!
Amazing atmosphere!!!
We went here for St.Patricks day brunch and we weren't overly enthused. The live entertainment was amazing and the general ambience was great. But...the food was just not very good. They had a set menu for the day, which we completely understood. With that said there is a certain amount of leeway that should be given. For instance when you're vegetarian and everything on the menu has meat. K, not surprised but you'd think the simple request of some extra beans to make up for the lost meat would be a simple request, apparently not. Paying $15 for two eggs, one piece of soda bread, some hashbrowns and cold beans..no thanks. I could have made that at home several times over, and warm, for that price.
Free music from Wednesday to Sunday! Great place to go for an evening out! Great food and friendly staff
Food was delicious but wait was a bit long. Server missed the drink I asked for and missed the request I made in regards to sauces.
Had a great time and the food was delicious
Cool spot! Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Drinks are a little pricey due to the lack of door cover.
Excellent food very friendly staff and live music is a plus. Would definitely recommend as a night outing. Great selection of beer on tap as well
Excellent customer service, was made to feel like a local despite being from out of town.
Awesome burgers!
We had a nice meal there out on the roof top it was nice
Definitely try the house IPA
Wonderful experience. They are using the RANS check in system for contact tracing, proper covid protocols and service was friendly and fast, even though they were as full as capacity would allow. Great tasting food and the live music was a great addition to feeling like a normal night out.
Super friendly staff. Food very fresh and delicious. Would highly recommend this pub.
Fantastic service by Eli!
Great food. Very good local brews
Great Irish Pub for a beer & Irish nachos. Enjoyed it!!
Great service - very friendly staff - Lobster Flambe was fantastic - my husband had the muscles and said they were great. Dessert was Gingerbread Cake with special sauce - every single calorie was worth it!
Great Irish pub!
Excellent food, extensive menu. Yummy lobster sliders! Many many beers, local and beyond, lovely people
Overpriced and poor quality. Ordered an $11 poutine that should have been listed in the soup section. Swimming in less-than-mediocre watery gravy. Also almost $27 for a pitcher? I could buy a case for that.
Food and atmosphere was amazing.
Very good food.
Wish I could give them 10 stars a must if your in Sydney!!!!!great food great service
Really good nachos and live entertainment!
Our group spent the weekend in Sydney, and we had two dinners and a lunch here. We also spent the evening Friday and Saturday nights. Everyone really enjoyed their food, and the second day two more people ordered the Ancient Mariner because it was so good. The live entertainment was great, and everyone had a great time each evening. A good selection of craft beers, and the service was great, especially Eli. They were also very accommodating for our friend who is gluten free and vegetarian.
Friendly staff, a warm meal, a nice pint and some live music on a Monday night. What more can you ask for from a pub really?
Cool spot with a patio. Great pub atmosphere. Friendly staff. Food was decent pub grub.
The food and atmosphere were great. The staff are friendly and accommodating. We held our Christmas meeting in the private room and then had dinner. It was very nice and private.
Very nice place. Helpful and friendly staff. The Dirty Irish Burguer was awesome!
Have you ever had food that just makes you sit there all quiet and savor every bite? This is the place to come.
Hangover burger is the best!
Great music and alcoholic beverages
Excellent. Best steak we have had in a long time. If only The Old Triangle was closer to Holyrood, Ontario!!
Ok
This was delicious. First visit, we got there right when they opened and by the time we left maybe 1230 it was standing room only. They do have a bar area and seating upstairs. If you have the time lots of things to look at.
Good food music and crowd
Sorry to tell the truth.... but, it took close to an hour to serve our food and then 4 of the 6 meals were wrong. Two steaks were cooked wrong, the boneless chicken bites were served as wings, then when we got the proper chicken bites, one order had the wrong sauce on them. Then 35 minutes later, I recieved the 3rd chicken bites order after being asked if I'd like to have them boxed to take home???? Oh yes, I didn't mention that the 3 surf n turf dinners were cold. Great atmosphere, music, and gathering place, if only the staff would step up there service!
Great people food entertainment. And cozy
The atmosphere was great. Food excellent.
We love trying local beer where ever we go!
had the land and sea was wicked
I loved in particular the wings which were delicious.
Awesome experience... Excellent service ????
Drink service is slow but you can't beat the live music and great crowd on a Saturday night!
Great Service, excellent COVID adherence
A little worried upon first impression, then the food came. I was surprised and very impressed. I will come back again.
Excellent music, food and atmosphere!
Food was great. The group had haddock, Shepard's Pie, and flatbread. All was excellent. Really enjoyed the patio. Great selection of beer.
The live music and food are amazing.
Food was great and friendly staff. Great place to go!

Food and service was great????????
Excellent food and service
Good social spot with great service
Staff are excellent and the food was very very good
Great food and great music! We went here and got the Irish Curry and Chips, Bucket O’Shrimp, Boneless Wings, Turkey Pot Pie, Spinach and Artichoke Dip, JD’s BBQ Potato Skins, and Classic Poutine. I wrote them out most to least favourite …
Might be my first single ⭐ cause I never left any eatery after waiting 15 min for anyone showing any interest to ask for ordering. Actually we didn't even get the menu. There were some large groups but more than half the tables were empty. Can't imagine how this place deal when full. Sorry ????
Great atmosphere, great entertainment
Big venue, kinda slow service even though place was empty, good food, good beer, didnt stay open late on a sunday though, bummer!
Always a good time
Hearty food with generous portions and very reasonable prices.
Great food ... Great prices ... Great entertainment ... Great staff
Very good
Food was delicious! Patio was warm and followed six feet covid in sitting area!!
Very slow service compared to other restaurants of the same chain when it was clearly not busy. Some items that were requested never arrived but we're not charged. Several mistakes for one group order. The chowder was excellent.
Amazing apps, astounding amount of veggie options
Quick hot and delicious Waitress is terrific
Food and service was great????????
Great food
Food below average
Food was really good and reasonably priced .would recommend checking it out .They also have some gluten free options.
We had reserved the private room for 18 guests to celebrate 2 Birthdays. Our waiter was very accommodating. Our food was delicious. Entertainment was great...Music by Andrew Doyle .We will be back!
Service was great, Rick is the bomb. Food is always ok at the old T. Definitely a better spot for a few brews then food.
Great place great food great people
It was pretty great. Almost as good of food as I remember ;)
Good food, lively atmosphere, fantastic wait staff
The food and service are amazing. They play live music and the record is rustic
Irish nachos were great as was the seafood chowder.
Live entertainment, no cover charge, great meals, vg and gf also. I had the black bean burger, very tasty.
Food was delicious but wait was a bit long. Server missed the drink I asked for and missed the request I made in regards to sauces.
Love the atmosphere. The wings were amazing. I highly recommend going.
Great food with drink specials. Large menu of both food and drinks. Definitely at a premium level
Great service. Great vegetarian options. Irish pub fare at its finest
Cool pub
Irish nachos are the best!
Try the pastie. Was excellent
Their whipped potatoes were amazing
Great food and many beers on tap.
Amazing food, quick service, great entertainment. Would eat here again!
Tastes good for me
Good place in town....to sit and relax little bit
Great place for a meal
I'm here on business and decided to stop by with some co-workers for a beer and some food. I had the corned beef sandwich with real whole grain mustard on a pretzel bun. The food was fantastic and there was a great selection of beer on tap. I will definitely be back here in the future!
Excellent supper
Terrible layout, slow service, high prices. Hard pass!
Good food, nice atmosphere, but slow service.
After driving to Sydney, we had a good meal. The staff were very friendly and the food was good. They had some Nov Scotia craft beer on tap which allowed us to try several different ones. There was even live music on a Sunday!
Giant place with live music at night and a calm vibe during the day. Their gluten free peanut butter brownie is heavenly.
Great live music! Awesome food... over 4 pages of beverages (wine, beer, etc).
Slow service the night we where here. It eas very busy. Should have been more servers on. Server where very friendly. Food was very good. Long time to get.
Service is slow....... do more hiring. Severely understaffed and it shows.
The food and entertainment was great found that the drinks were on the expensive side.
1:00 pm . In for lunch and brew. Quite nice for an afternoon. Staff was great and beer was exceptional. Thanks
Hood food and great ambiance. A bit pricey but Worth it.
Closest to an Irish Chicken Curry and Chips that I've had yet in Canada. Great food all 'round.
Food is amazing. Staff is awesome. Live Entertainment has been excellent both times i have came. They offer a variety of flights which is great too
live music is a touch too loud, food is decent, prices aren't too bad. good place to sit have drinks with friends, but there are better spots around sydney.
This is an East Coast pub. Lively with local music. Who could ask for more!!
Love the feel of this place when I walk through the door...hard to complain about an Irish pub the food is amazing and they have a variety of local craft beer on tap as well as domestic and imported. I suggest the hangover burger...amazing!
Staff nice beer cold comfy spot!)
Especially good to visit during Kitchenfest! Best Irish Stew I've ever had. Good service for a busy pub.
Unreal spot. Great decor, great food. Friendly service
Great food and service
Its ok Food could be better.
Great place for either a quick beverage or a gathering of friends. Food was very good. Bar staff was attentive.
Great place to gather and relax while in Sydney.
Good prices, good food, live music
Great service and a great menu. We were in a hurry for an appointment and our server was awesome to ensure we got out on time. I wish I had the server's name to shout out his awesome service and helpfulness. (Sept 5 @ 1:30PM). Great meal and enjoyed eating on the patio.
Favorite place to eat in Sydney
Good value pub food, "typical" Irish pub styling, busy on a Thursday night, entertainment
Pretty decent pub with a great feel and atmosphere. Service was good, if a little slow but they were super busy on a Saturday evening supper rush. Nachos we're great. I was disappointed with the seafood chowder, which was more seafood stew than chowder, but I have very high and specific expectations of my seafood chowder.
Went to the place to see we were not impressed Staff could not cope with the crowd Food paid the price for there lack of experience of staff
Food wasn't great and orders were messed up, one at our table ended up with nothing to eat because they messed up order twice and just said forget it ????
Came here today while in Port on a cruise. Had beer and the Irish Nachos .Both were good. Would come here again.
We came down to the Old Triangle to see Signal Hill in Aug 2021, we reserved our table 2 months in advance and we were assured by the staff we'd have a clear view of the band for the show! When we arrived we were seated in the "Cubby" as the name describes it's a closet. These "seats" shouldn't be allowed to be sold IMO! Not for a show. Our server asked to have us moved but was handcuffed by Poor management and poor customer retention is the result. We won't return. Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Staff ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Management ⭐⭐⭐ Edit: The management engaged us before the end of the evening. We discussed the issue and found a resolution. Unfortunately it took a google review to provoke a response. I updated from 1⭐ to 4⭐
Ok but have had better.
Tremendous entertainment, great food and cold beer. What's not to love?
The live music is always my favorite ! Cant get any better then coming here with your with friends!!
Purely for relaxation
Nice vibes and good place for partying
Food was excellent and the beer was ice cold
Very personable and all fresh homemade food. Highly recommend
Friendly place. Good food. French onion soup very good.
I had the Irish Nachos. They were very well done (too done) and the cheese could hardly be found. Also, the side of sour cream equaled maybe 2 Tbs. I asked for more but the waiter forgot. Drinks were delicious though :)
Food was excellent, service good, and staff very friendly, recommend your meal here.
Gave me food poisoning. Worst food in Sydney.
Food is delicious. A nice selection, I'd like to go back and try some more stuff. The pad Thai is so good, although I'd prefer crushed peanuts but that's personal preference. Service was speedy and attentive. Brought my kids in and everyone was friendly.
To bad they weren't open later great place
Great entertainment. Food was average
Food was good, beer was cold
Good and huge nachos, good cocktails, and awesome Guinness Gingerbread!
Good food, pleasant and helpful staff. Great place for families as well.
Great food.Place is huge! Awesome atmosphere
Great music and patio.
Great food, great service.
Great live music, good atmosphere. Always had a good time here.
Slow service. Tried twice to eat there. Barely got noticed. Arrived at 6pm for Lobster night and told at 6:15 they were sold out. Really???
Lovely pub with local beers in flights.
The place is overall bad and this may just be the covid talking but for the price I could have the best party ever. Got there for a Saturday get out with some pals, took ten minutes to get seated took even longer to get a server. I've work service befor so I know how it goes a couple of dudes are the least priority. Side note there was a group of men like a frat party or bachelor party screaming and shouting. So they were priority for the staff but all that said it was a bit much. Once we got a seat and menu's it went downhill fast. The prices are wild, like shocking high. Are meals came out to 50 or so dollars for "simple" pub food. The drink we even more with tip it was near 10 dollars a beer and same for shots. The problem was the slow service could barely get glow on and the food took close to 35 minutes to come. Overall spent near 300 dollars and was sober on the way back home In the cab. Once covid is over mabey but if I we're you just buy the food and drink and have fun at home. Will return post covis to see if it's better and will review it than.
Great food and great service.
