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 warm, welcoming spot for craft beer lovers and live music, with a solid lineup of house brews, a lively but cozy atmosphere, and friendly staff. An upstairs space works well for groups, weekends feature live music and open mic nights, and the downtown Montreal location is convenient before events. The beer and food receive praise, including wings, nachos, and poutine, with good value for the price. Some caveats include occasional beers that feel slightly watered down, a few dishes that were overcooked, and moments of loudness during busy periods, but the overall impression is of a dependable, neighborhood brewpub experience with strong hospitality.
We were very badly served, they treated us as if our table didn't exist, we almost had to beg someone to come. Then, we ordered drinks that didn't come & at the time of the bill the waitress was rude for not receiving the tip that she didn't deserve by the way.

Our server was excellent-attentive, friendly, & ensured we had everything we needed. The pub had a comfortable & inviting atmosphere, making for a pleasant setting.
Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. The nachos were topped with spaghetti sauce, & the quesadillas were stuffed with it as well. This unexpected ingredient completely overwhelmed the flavors, making the dishes unappetizing.
We went on a Sunday evening & it was quiet. I hear it can be a busy place. Service was fast & friendly, food was great & price was good. A great selection of beers made on site added to the uniqueness of this pub.
Mon bar préféré pour une incursion dans le monde « Anglo » de crescent. Personnel très accueillant & spécialement Bill le gérant. Musiciens, souvent inconnus & parfois surprenants. Belle carte de bières & bons nachos
We were in town for the F1 Race & made a special trip down to Brutopia to try out some local craft beer. Good service but a bit busy (it was F1 - everywhere was busy). Beer was ok.
Excellente surprise pour nous, bonne bouffe & bonnes bières, & pas si cher pour un restaurant proche du centre Bell. Si vous allez voir un spectacle & chercher une bonne Microbrasserie pour manger avant, c'est pour vous 👍
