Absolutely brilliant. Can't say enough good things about it.
We walked in on a Wednesday evening & had immediately received a warm welcome from Adrian. He was super helpful with talking us through the different options on the menu & advising us what we might like - both with the food & especially when talking my partner through the vast selection of beers.
The burgers were amazing - I genuinely can't remember having a better one anywhere else. Top class sweet potato fries as well, & I highly recommend the coleslaw; it was unlike anything I'd had elsewhere, & not drowning in mayo like you get in so many places.
Overall, absolutely top marks. Can't fault it in any way. Even the music was great.
In fact, I do have one complaint: that there's only one of them. Normally this would be a massive plus point as I always want to support independents, but I'd happily make an exception for these if it means they open a branch in Liverpool in the UK!
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.

Je recommande 😁🍁
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.
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.
Loved it! It was my first time coming here with the team, & the food honestly surprised me - everything was so delicious. The server was super friendly & attentive, & the atmosphere was great. I'll definitely come again & recommend it to my friends?
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
Great spot & good to take a family. The food is fantastic & a ton of selection. Really really good burgers. A variety of drinks as well - Labatt 50 on tap. Incredible. Would recommend the Quebecois burger or roadhouse. Both fantastic! This place knows how to make a burger.
Our server was great, but overworked. Would see him & then wouldn't for quite sometime. We sat on the street patio. Our server was serving the street patio, inside & the second story patio as well. That's a lot to cover & unfortunately it took away from the service experience.
French Review:
Super endroit, idéal pour une famille. La nourriture est fantastique & le choix est vaste. Les burgers sont vraiment excellents. Il y a aussi une variété de boissons : du Labatt 50 pression. Incroyable. Je recommande le burger québécois ou le restaurant de rue. Les deux sont excellents ! Cet endroit sait comment préparer un burger.
Notre serveur était super, mais débordé. On le voyait souvent, puis on ne le voyait plus pendant un bon moment. Nous nous sommes installés sur la terrasse. Notre serveur servait aussi bien la terrasse de la rue que celle à l'intérieur & celle du deuxième étage. Ça fait beaucoup à dire & malheureusement, ça a gâché l'expérience du service.
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 like going to burger bar crescent to order their buffalo chicken Mac & cheese. It's so cheesy & delicious! & it's so good! I always order that every time! & i definitely recommend this dish to anyone! They have the BEST Mac & cheese ever!
Always my favourite burger place to stop; the bison burgers are to die for! Such a cozy vibe & excellent service. Some nights can get super busy so I recommend calling ahead to ask if there's any tables available.
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!
Well, probably one of the best spicy burgers I have ever eaten. I recommend this place to everybody who likes to eat good! They also have nice selection of local beers.
This place has some of the best burgers in the city. The service can be better. The burgers are all worth the dollars paid. They are delicious & size-appropriate. My personal favorites is the shenanigans burger & five cheese Mac & cheese. The service can improve. Before the pandemic, I would have recommended going to Burger Bar, but since closing a reopening, the service is a hit or miss. I attempted to order out after a hard work day. I was told 10-15 minutes, & I stepped outside to avoid blocking the entrance. I returned to be told the order was never sent to the kitchen. The only way my order would have made it to the kitchen was because the person who took my order never put it into the system. I was extremely upset & did not leave me wanting to return. I did return recently after another day of work & decided to dine at the bar to avoid another hangry situation. The barman was great. He greeted me with a smile & provided excellent service. Luckily, he restored faith in me that the restaurant hasn't gone down the tubes, & I will happily return to increase my rating to 5 stars in the future.
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! 👌
