Located in the heart of Crescent Street, Burger Bar Crescent offers Gourmet Hamburgers, Mac & Cheese, Sweet Potatoes and many other Burger delights. Our upstairs area offers groups for sports nights or parties of any kind the privacy and atmosphere to relax and have a good time.
Burger Bar Crescent is praised for juicy, well-balanced burgers and a diverse menu that runs from smash burgers to Wagyu and bison options, with standout picks such as the Quebecois, Roadhouse, Supersonic, and Firestorm, along with excellent fries, poutine, and a solid beer and cocktails list. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as cozy, lively, and family friendly, with a convenient terrace and fast, friendly service noted by many, though a few visits mention busier times leading to slower service and occasional mistakes. Food quality gets glowing remarks for freshness and flavor, while some reviewers call out rare misses like veggie burgers that are too sour and salty, dry mac and cheese, or a burnt burger, but these are framed as exceptions rather than the rule. Overall, it comes across as a top Montreal option for burger lovers seeking generous portions, plenty of drink options, and a vibrant, easygoing setting in the heart of the city, with many planning to return on future visits.
Really great spot for burgers. The atmosphere is nice & relaxed. Dining room clean & comfortable. Waitstaff very helpful & nice. Drinks & desserts are great too.
Stopped in for a bite while in town
Probably the best smash burger I've had in a while (BBQ smash w pickled jalapenos & caramelized onions)
Everything from top to bottom bun was perfect
10/10 for flavour & textures
I didn't put the sandwich down once
A must try if you love burgers & are in the area.
Will definitely return every time I visit MTL
We stopped by around 8:30 pm for drinks & dessert as the restaurant was winding down. Unfortunately, it felt like our table was being avoided, & after waiting for some time without service, we decided to leave.
Absolutely loved this place, finally found a place in Montreal with real French fries & not those damn cavendish knock offs. I had the Nordiqes (mostly because I have been a die hard Nordiques fan my whole life & couldn't resist). I had no idea Quebec had their own wagyu beef! I was not disappointed, it was amazing. All 4 of us had a different burger & we all loved it!
Will definitely return on my next visit to Montreal!
Party of 6, everything was great pre game dinner. Half party got food, others waited for a bit. But server made it right. Definitely comeback. Very busy, stuff happens. Highly recommend.

Incredible food quality. I was with a party of four. We all loved our dishes. The quality of the burgers! I had the Quebecois. Delicious. The fries are outstanding. We shared the mac & cheese! Probably the best dish you would ever have!
I had consistently good experiences at this restaurant from 2019 to 2024, & it was one of my favorite places, especially because of their vegetarian options. I've always recommended it to friends & family visiting Montreal.
However, during my visit last Friday, the experience was disappointing. The veggie burgers were overly sour & salty, & the mac & cheese was very dry. While I don't mind the pricing, taste & quality are equally important.
This visit was a letdown compared to my past experiences, & it has made me reconsider whether I will return in the future. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously & improves the food quality.
When last night, the atmosphere here is amazing!! The friendly staff & the food was great!! My husband had a massive burger & it was so good! Best French onion soup ever!!
Don't come here unless you want the server demanding tips. Bare minimum customer service provided by asking what we would like to order then waiting 30 minutes for it. The entitled server Liezel had the audacity to demand a tip. You're not entitled to anything. Extremely unprofessional & hostile language used by her. Train your servers to have better communication & interpersonal skills if they wants to work in costumer service.
Excellent place to have GOOD burgers. I asked for the doble patty with poutine, instead of French fries aside. Delicious. & a Sangria to drink. Nice place to have lunch or dinner. Excellent service. I recommend it a lot. Not expensive either.
