If you're looking for a place to drink, eat and just sit back and people-watch, then the patio on Crescent are the right place. This street is nearly always busy. It has some good pubs (Wiston Churchill) and good restaurants (Pino).

If you're looking for nightlife, this is where the tourists hang out. There are a lot of college age people making rounds at the various bars and clubs.

A must see!

TIP: parking can be difficult. Try to look for reasonably priced parking on Ste-Catherine (away from the busiest part). There is usually parking on the street close by on Ste-Catherine (you can pay at the meter and update the meter if you decide to stay longer by using your phone -- just remember your parking number). It's only a few minutes to Crescent.

This seemed like the happening place to be on a Fri/Sat night! Lots of clubs and pubs to check out! A little on the young side (18+) but overall a good vibe!

This street tends to be over-priced and touristy- a great place to go if you don't feel comfortable in the more French areas because it is definitely an Anglo area. But it's also boring in that way- pubs are just like they are everywhere else. If you really want to enjoy the real Montreal, go elsewhere.

As a local, I have to do a public service and tell people to stay away from this area. It's horrible. If you want bad food, scenesters of all ages, over crowded bars\restaurants, then by all means go. Other than that, this area is junk. Sure you have some savings spots, like below St-Catherine you can find a couple of fun pubs such as Hurley's and Brutopia, you can actually have a good meal if you go to Devi, and the best shish-taouk (Chicken Shawarma) in the city. Don't believe me? Maybe you'll believe the picture of the owner and Prime Minister Trudeau.

Instead of wasting time here, go to old montreal, Quartier Latin, Plateau, Mile End, anything but Crescent.
