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).
Mad Hatter Pub is described as a lively dive bar with pool, ample seating, and cheap drinks that attract a big weekend crowd and a city vibe. The vibe is often praised as fun and authentic with friendly staff and good service when things run smoothly. Some reviews warn of long waits to be served, crowded nights, and inconsistent or unprofessional service, and a few patrons mention feeling unsafe or uncomfortable due to other guests. Cleanliness issues are noted, including a persistent odor and sticky surfaces in the bathrooms, and at times there is no food offered or heating in cold weather. Overall it remains a popular spot for drinks and games, though guests advise caution about crowding, cleanliness, and safety.
My friends & I were looking for a place to eat after having a few drinks at a previous establishment. We really weren't satisfied with the menu so we unfortunately left. I guess food isn't their thing & just provide a few options for those who need a quick bite. This is not to say that this is a bad place. It's definitely a funky atmospheric environment & I will definitely return to have a few drinks & enjoying the ambiance. 👍😎

Last week I paid less than 10$ for a burger & today it costs almost 18. I understand that the price was very cheap, but to increase the price so drastically in a week?
Très content de la soirée, dans la plupart des bars je ne peux y accéder ma minorité. Cependant, le portier de sa gentillesse m'a fait découvrir le monde des grandes. Amen

On the day of my reservation, besides not having any food at the pub, there was no table reserved for me, I had to get the table by myself, & if I arrived 10 minutes later, there would be no space for me & my friends. as it was getting crowded
Superbe bar pour manger sur le pouce & passer du bon temps entre amis. Les prix sont vraiment abordables & vous pourrez jouer au billard au jenga ou encore au ping-pong. Je recommande!
Music is as too loud at some points & the tables need to be washed more often way to sticky, tips to the waitress she's top notch you should promote her.
Olivier s'est super bien occupé de nous tous tout au long de la soirée avec un sourire & une super bonne vibe! Le service peut être difficile quand les gens d'un groupe arrive à différentes heures, mais il a tout géré comme un pro! Merci encore!
It's a very cool little bar with great staff, great atmosphere & great music.
If you are looking for a place, to be a poser, take selfie's all night with bottles of champagne, while listening to autotune pop music - find somewhere else :)
Great place to go to for drinks & to hang out with friends. It can take long for the waiters to come to you, but nonetheless, great ambiance at the Mad Hatter Pub.
