The McGowan Inn opens its doors to a living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a bar, where you can enjoy a drink or a good coffee. The adjoining dining room, completely glazed, and the large terrace offer a magnificent view of Lake Memphremagog. The Inn also offers a private room that can accommodate a group of 12 people for a meeting or for a meal taken in complete privacy.
Local products are featured, including fine herbs from the Inn's garden and organic vegetables from the Jardin du Quartier, which holds a farmers' market on Saturdays in Georgeville.
Overall, reviews describe Auberge McGowan as a stunning lakeside setting with refined decor, delicious food, and attentive service, though several notes mention high prices and occasional slower or less flexible service and some vegetarian menu limitations; many guests praise the terrace dining with a view of the lake, the recently renovated interior, and the ambience, while standout items such as seafood chowder, a lobster roll, and calamari appear repeatedly and diners say they would return to enjoy both the scenery and the cuisine.
Bel accueil, très belle terrasse, calme & vue sur le lac. Petit menu, mais choix intéressants . Très bon. A la table d'à côté, le serveur a présenté les plats du jour dès le début, notre serveuse ne l ‘a pas fait. Petit détail qui ne change rien à l ‘agréable moment que nous avons passé. Nous y retournerons pour le brunch en octobre.
Merveilleuse découverte que nous avons faite en prenant un succulent repas au McGowan. Nourriture excellente, le service était professionnel & attentionné. Nous y retournerons c'est certain.
Merci à toute l'équipe & bravo au chef!
This was our second time in the beautifully renovated Mc Gowan. This location is unique & magical. Although we have some nostalgia for the old rustic McGowan, we feel the new building & decor is a great addition to the area & a wonderful tribute to Georgeville. The food was excellent, fish was cooked just right, as were the companion vegetables. However, there remains much room for improvement on desserts. The sound level is a bit too high for comfortable conversation
