If you're the kind of person who likes playing pool, great drinks and great food for cheap Mad Hatters is where you should go. It’s located at the center of Crescent Street, but curtained off from St. Catherine. Even though the décor is rustic, the vibe here is still relaxed (at least until the late hours, when a DJ often appears and things become more clubby).

Great spot, ask for raven! So many specials , very busy bar on weekends, they've got pool & a couple other games which are nice, people aren't competitive & just wanna have a good time!

We entered & waited extremely long to be served & the smell was so awful me & my friend decided to just leave. Other friends have also told me this place has made them feel unsafe at times. There is always some dude trying to make a pass at you here

Excellent service, bar tender was chill. Drinks are reasonable priced with large variety. Has 3 pool tables, & lots of seating. No food served. No heating even in January, so had to stay in a hat. Cool spot though

This bar is AMAZING! We went in for a few drinks. Ended up meeting the owner who was bartending, talking about the bar life. Met some young kids who ended up adopting us. Thanks for the great time Mad Hatter!!!

Disappointed & disrespected
I came here expecting a good night out, but instead got served a pitcher that tasted like plain water. I went to the barman to mention it, thinking maybe there was a mistake, but he literally laughed at me & acted like I was crazy. Super unprofessional & disrespectful. Whether the drink was watered down or just made wrong, the attitude was the worst part. I usually have no problem when I go to mad hatter but this time , it was so crowded & how the barman replied to me was so unprofessional & mean. Also the bar smelled like puke & piss, & everything was sticky - the floor, the tables, even the chairs. It honestly felt dirty & unhygienic. Between the gross environment & the rude service, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Definitely not worth your time or money.

Wasn't bad but wasn't the cleanest place either. Came & left after 15 minutes as there was a strange smell & overall just didn't look like a place I'd want to eat. The service was great & I'm sure a lot of people would enjoy coming for some pool & a drink! Just an average bar overall in my opinion

Mad Hatter's is still one of the best dive bar in town, if you are looking to feel the vibe of the city get a few drinks, shooters & speak with the locals, this is one of the perfect place & it has been for more than 30 years (even though it move quite a few times, it remained its authenticity & charm).
I would think twice if you want to bring a first date here, but I would personally do it, I just love dive bars.
(Staff is always super friendly)

went there on a bar crawl on Tuesday 22nd March in 2005. I remember meeting a really tall 6ft 4 inch tall handsome french man who had really dark hair who was staying at Auberge Montreal Hostel at the time where I was also staying & he was on the bar crawl. I regret not getting to know him because I really liked him at the time & I can't stop thinking about him. If you know anyone who was there on the pub crawl that night, please let me know. Apart from that, I really like the pub, the atmosphere, the food & the drinks. It's a really good, fun place to go to

Perfect dive bar. Popping with people. Great crowd with soooooo many beautiful women. This spot was the ideal after dinner night spot to visit. The bartender was really cool & was on the spot every time.
The one con is the bathroom. It is pretty gross. But hey, it is a dive bar.

the bartender was really nice & courteous but there was this awful smell in the place, my friends ran away as soon as we sat down but I stayed for two shots. I'm sure it was just a mishap & it don't usually smells bad. will probably come back for a drink & a pool game.

Asides from ok food, the bar is breaking apart.
Been going for years & when someone slightly leans on a table, the table breaks in
