Brutopia spans three floors, and on each floor is a bar. This Crescent Street brewpub offers both familiar and exotic ales, but specialize in full-flavoured English ales: Nutbrown, Raspberry, Extra Blonde, Honey Beer, Porter, Blackout Stout, as well as its unique India Pale Ale.
Brutopia is described as a lively downtown Montreal pub with a solid lineup of house brewed beers, some guest taps, and a welcoming casual vibe. Reviewers note frequent live music and open mic nights that add a friendly, neighborhood feel, a small stage, and a bustling yet accommodating atmosphere. The beer selection is praised for freshness and variety, with favorites like nut brown ale, a West Coast IPA, and stout mentioned, and overall quality described as reliable. Food receives mixed but generally positive comments, with crowd pleasers like burgers and poutine, though a few dishes are noted for consistency. Service is described as friendly and efficient on many visits, though some experiences mention delays or order mix ups during peak times. The space is portrayed as cozy and intimate yet busy, with a welcoming vibe and clean facilities, and the patio is suggested for a quieter experience when the music is loud.
Do bands ever play here? Website advertises bands at 10pm. Waited & waited & waited. Bands setup, & then just sit & chat to themselves with no sign of playing. Who knows if they ever actually play. Perhaps at 12pm? Go to one of many other venues where bands actually perform on time.
Je suis allé au moins 5 fois au fil des ans , les bières sont toujours bonnes & des spectacles surprises à l occasion se donnent , meilleur place dans ce coin...
We came here for some beers & had the loveliest waiter who helped us with some recommendations for some small beers to try everything of the menu. Although he had to extend his shift because of the many guests orders he was so patient, kind & funny :) Really enjoyed our stay & the homebrewed beers 😌

We were here last night for supper. We were sat at the bar as there wasn't any other tables available. The bartender Jackie was absolutely amazing! Even though she was busy, she always made sure to check in with us & update us on the status of our food order. I had ordered the cheeseburger & forgot to ask for it to be well done (100% on me & I took full accountability for that) & I got the burger & it was probably more of a medium which is too rare for my liking & I just can't stomach pink meat so I unfortunately asked if I could send it back & felt terrible about it. Jackie said it was not an issue at all & she never once made me feel badly about it & she herself took full accountability even though it was my mistake! Furthermore, she asked the kitchen to prioritize the new one being made! Outstanding customer service!!! I really appreciated her kindness & professionalism. Oh, & all of the food & brew were absolutely delicious! 10/10 recommend this place & will definitely be back whenever I am in the area again!
Nice little spot to grab a drink & enjoy some pub food! Definitely recommend the poutine. The prices are reasonable & portions are generous. The drinks are definitely quite strong! The atmosphere is relaxed & chill, & overall just has great vibes.
