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.
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.
Amazing burgers & service! 🍔
The staff were super friendly & the food came really fast. The burgers were juicy, flavorful, & came with a choice of salad or fries. We picked the fries & they were perfectly crispy & delicious! Highly recommend this place if you're craving a good burger.
We ordered Royal burger & super cheddar bison & I really liked the tastes of bison meat
This spot came highly recommended by locals & thankfully so. Burger Bar Crescent delivered a fantastic meal right in the heart of the city. The burger selection was impressive with something for every taste, & the drinks were just as memorable. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, making it a perfect place to relax & enjoy. If you are visiting Montreal, make sure this place is on your list!
I just had poutine for the first time at Burger Bar Montreal, & it did not disappoint! The combination of crispy fries, gooey cheese curds, & rich gravy was absolutely delicious. I can see why it's such a popular Canadian dish!
The flavors blended perfectly, & the portion size was generous. If you're new to poutine like I was, I highly recommend trying it here. A must-try experience in Montreal!

I've been to Burger Bar Crescent many times before. Tonight I had the supersonic burger & after finishing it I told my friends it's the best burger I've had in my life! The fries & onions rings were amazing too! The wait staff was friendly, attentive & efficient; not overbearing at all! The wait time wasn't too long either. I would highly recommend!
This was my first time at Burger Bar Crescent but had heard such good things so we went as a group of five for my birthday. The service was really good - our server was friendly & prompt, & had a great sense of humor. The atmosphere was great, with lots of people & good music but not too loud. & the food was absolutely delicious! I had the Jack Daniel's BBQ wings (spicy) to start & the flavor was so good! The classic double smash burger for my main was incredible! The char on the edges was perfect & it was so juicy! I would highly recommend! Their fries were a rustic style & perfectly salted. Super good! I will absolutely return. 10/10 would recommend! 👌
It's location & service were amazing. Imagine you're sitting under the Leonard Cohen mural... Plus, servers are super friendly. I order smashed burger with fries, & enjoyed it. Highly recommended
Absolutely incredible food, everyone loved every dish. We went there with our 3 year old, 5 year old, wife & myself. We liked it so much we went back during our vacation. We had a minor issue the first time & it was taken care of immediately, the staff are very attentive & go out of their way to make your visit special. Would highly recommend for any age group!

Bartender Sebastian was so fun, he was very efficient & helped us get to our next location very fast because we were in a bit of a rush. Food was amazing & chose to go here more than once on our short stay because the food & service were so good. Highly recommend
Great, friendly staff that went above & beyond. Delicious fries, both normal & in their poutine (which was also excellent). They have a great selection of both thick patties & smaller patties in their smash burgers. Would highly recommend!
I've been to Burger Bar a few times in the past & always had a great experience however I was very disappointed yesterday.
For one, it was F1 weekend. Of course, we were not expecting it to be five star service seeing as it was intensely packed & noisy outside on Crescent. We entered the restaurant which was not as full as we thought it would be. The hostess asked how many people we were & my boyfriend replied 4. She immediately shook her head & said she would not have any room at all (which was odd because we did not see many people waiting upstairs or on the terrace) My boyfriend kindly replied that he did not mind waiting (this was probably due to our great past experiences there that we were willing to wait). The hostess was VERY cold & just looked at us & told us it would be a 45 minute wait (as though it would turn us off & we would leave because it was 9:15PM). We moved over to the bar area. We were seated in 15 mins so it did not take 45 minutes.
Our food was good. The spicy Jack Daniel's wings were not spicy at all. My Quebecois burger was delicious. We finished our meal & the restaurant was not so packed (there was 2 free tables near us). My boyfriend & I were super excited to have a dessert. We kindly asked the waitress for a dessert menu & she said we could not have dessert on F1 weekend. I didn't think anything of it until 3 women near us ordered the fried Mars bar. I was extremely angry. I explained to the waitress that it was very unfair to lie to us & she used some lame excuse & said that their waitress happened to be the manager & the manager had told the staff earlier that night no desserts allowed & she was essentially breaking her own rules.
She asked if I wanted to order dessert. I did not want to stay there any longer. We were ready to pay for dessert & a few more rounds. We took our money & tip somewhere it was much more welcomed. I was very disappointed & still am. I will not be going back because I feel like the staff was just annoyed with us. They were not friendly & were willing to let us go & due to bad service they just lost a regular.
I would highly recommend a change of staff. The bartenders however were extremely friendly (two women with glasses, one with shorter hair) they were great! The rest just treated us horribly.
