Coming from overseas, I had never tried poutine before, so traveling to Québec made it only a matter of time. While driving through the Cantons-de-l'Est, I stayed one night in Magog & discovered this small roadside spot, Cantine Chez Paul, filled with local customers - always a great sign.
I decided to try the smoked meat poutine & wow, I was not disappointed! Absolutely delicious. The friendly service & the sweet elderly cooks made the experience even more authentic & memorable. A true Québec gem off the beaten path.
Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ordered the smoked meat poutine (medium) combo which comes with a drink. Smoked meat was absolutely amazing & so was the poutine. Hearty portions, plenty of meat & cheese. Was well worth the stop! Will actually try & visit again while we are in town.
A tiny little cantine (aptly named) on the Main Street in Magog. Not sure why it is so highly reviewed. Food is basic & underwhelming although portions are huge (if you are into stuffing your face with poutine). We ordered a smoked meat sandwich with fries & a hot dog. Again, nothing to write home about. I guess it is worth a visit because it is such a landmark in Magog with the tourists lined up around the corner (it caught our attention). Prices are quite cheap. It is very small with only a few tables, so take out might be more recommended. Note: they don't take credit cards so bring cash or debit.
Fries are delicious!! Smoked meat sandwich & burger were also delicious.
Fast service, great atmosphere, very clean.
