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.
An unassuming bar, nice & quiet during the day. Excellent burgers! Actually some of the best burgers I've ever had so I definitely recommend this place :) Update 4 years later: still fantastic burgers!! Sooooo good.
Hambúrguer delicioso! O melhor que experimentamos na cidade, bem diferenciado. Vale a experiência. Tem cervejas bem interessantes também, nao bebo cerveja, mas meu marido gostou muito.

Went during F1 weekend, so naturally had to wait for table. We opted for bar seats to soak in the Oilers game, & I am so glad we did. The dynamics of this place & two bartenders are a hoot. They were fluent & fun to watch, mixing up some serious beverages. I decided to hydrate with a long island iced tea, which turned into three. Unfortunately, I took zero photos but the burger I consumed was delicious. Not sure of the name, but it had bacon & over easy egg. My partner had double smashed burger with poutine. He loved it & pretty much inhaled it. I will make it a point to return here when in Montreal!
Abbiamo cenato in questo locale posto in una bella stradina abbastanza centrale di Montreal. Il posto è carino, siamo stati al secondo piano ed il servizio rapido e gentile. Abbiamo preso due panini hamburger eccellenti, tra i più buoni mangiati in Nord America. Patatine nella norma (in stile canadese, ossia paiono mezze sbruciacchiate, ma è solo apparenza, come quelle che mettono nella Poutine). Buona la birra. Il prezzo è in linea con quello dei locali circostanti quindi mediamente alto, come in quasi tutti i ristoranti canadesi, fatta eccezione per l'hamburger semplice (senza pane, salse, condimenti ecc.) preso per nostra figlia che ci hanno fatto pagare solo 4 dollari canadesi... incredibile, ma vero, ma meno di 3 euro per un hamburger comunque buonissimo e più che sufficiente per sfamare una bambina.
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
I've been a loyal patron of this restaurant for six years now, & every single visit continues to exceed my expectations. My go-to dish is the Royale with cheese, & I can't express enough how incredibly delicious it is. The staff members are consistently warm & welcoming, & the level of service they provide is top-notch. Additionally, I appreciate the fact that they offer lettuce-wrapped burgers, making it a great dining option for individuals who are sensitive to gluten, just like me.

It was my friend & I's first time traveling to Montreal. After a day of walking we said we needed a good burger. Burger Bar as a 10 min walk from our hotel. I really like how Montreal utilizes their old buildings. A lot of restaurants are two floors. We were on the second for Burger Bar & had a window view of the street. The burgers we had were outstanding. I was debating if I wanted to try one of the mac & cheese's on the menu or the Brie cheese & Mushroom burger. I asked our waiter his opinion & he said hands down the brie & mushroom burger. I took this advice & It was truly one of the best burgers I ever had. Lots of options on the menu & a great spot!
Wooowwooow & woowww meilleur burger que j'ai mangé de ma vie !!!!!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩 j'ai pris le burger 🍔 « manigances>> avec cheddar vieilli ! Sérieux la sauce , les oignons caramélisés tout tout tout étaient excellents !!! Je recommande ce restaurant à 100% . Merciiii
We tried the Jack Daniel's & the Wild shroom Burger, & both were excellent, but the mushroom one was totally different & must be tried! The Burgers came with the salad & the fries were good! & the portion was perfect too! The staff were so welcoming & nice! We sat outside & I enjoyed our experience, we will definitely be back.
I lowkey should have looked twice at the bad reviews because this spot was slow as hell on a Monday night. On top of that, we received our order after 3 other tables who were sat after us. The other tables complained. We did not. They were offered free drinks. We just got "Thank you for dining with us" The only saving grace is that my son said the Bougie Smash burger was delicious. Better than 7th Street Burgers? He said YES. However, DO NOT get the buffalo chicken poutine. The ranch & buffalo sauce & the gravy was too much. The fries themselves were soggy. The ice cream machine was out of order so no milkshakes that night. Also, DO NOT order the lemonade. It was incredibly too too sweet. Downright inedible in my opinion. It is to be determined whether we will be back. An hour for a burger on a Monday night at 630pm is not it. I almost left to go to GyuKaku down the block.
Food was amazing! We drove quite a haul to check this place out as we wanted to try something different & had seen all of their other great reviews. We were very satisfied! The atmosphere is a bit different as it's a smaller place & most tables are very very close together, where you kind of feel as if you are dining with the tables next to you as well. I do however think that this is common in cities. Our server certainly (& unfortunately) left a bit to be desired, but everyone else we encountered was very kind. All in all we would definitely not hesitate to stop back in as the meal was awesome!
