Coq-O-Bec draws guests with a casual, inviting vibe and lively dining atmosphere. Plenty of praise centers on the fried chicken, described as crispy, juicy and among the best, along with consistently strong poutine and dessert options like a Tuxedo cake. Service is described as friendly and attentive, with staff checking in and a clean, well lit space where tables are easy to find. Some reviews note great value and generous portions, while others mention smaller portions or longer wait times for fried chicken. The ambience includes TVs, music, and a lively yet relaxed dining scene that makes it good for groups or casual outings. There are mixed comments about ownership changes and inconsistent experiences over time, including a few critiques about dessert or restroom conditions. Overall, the place stands out for flavor and price, with multiple reviews recommending bringing friends for a satisfying meal.
*update* management change, not the same owner anymore, quality dropped below zero, save your money ✌?
*Reply to owner: I've been buying the 3 & 4 piece fried chicken meals for years now. Your fried chicken is burnt & doesn't even look or feel like real chicken. It's quite sad because I used to love this restaurant.
Came home late on a Saturday night & decided to eat here because i was starving & it caught my eye the inside of the place , i went in & IMMEDIATELY got a table . I sat down , scrolled on the menu & decided the poutine was great . 5 minutes later my food was served .It was delicious, perfect temperature, perfect amount & perfect deliciousness , it was so good i ordered second's . After my delicious dinner , i decided to get some dessert & again it was a delicious Tuxedo cake . I payed my check & left feeling full & relaxed . Highly recommend coming here with some friends cause it was really good

Amazing food ! I tried the fried chicken as a starter & it was delicious, the waiter was super polite & kind & constantly checked up on me to see if i needed anything . Service was great & the place looked really good & clean & there were a lot of TV & entertainment & there was music playing while eating . It was a nice & relaxing session & highly recommend coming here with a few friends to brunch here !
The new owner is great. The reviews from a month ago are from the old owners apparently. The lady on the phone was really nice & the delivery is very cheap. The food quality & portions are really generous. Chicken is crispy, but also juicy. I really recommend getting a dessert with the meal. It was really good.
Nous sommes déçu, ca ma coûter 90$ pour 3 poutine au poulet & une assiette de filet de poulet.. ce qui est décevant cest que le poulet était trop cuit & sec dans les poutines mais en prime nous avons eu des os parmi ca!! On aurais pu s'être étouffer! Les frites était du rechauffer , & peu de fromage. Ma fille n'a pas apprécier ses filet de poulet encore une fois trop cuit & des morceaux dur a l'intérieur ! Auparavant on a souvent commander la bas mais la cetait la dernière fois! Vraiment déçu & d'avoir payer ce prix pour ca!
Ne reponde pas au telephonne pour commande! ce qui me fait croire que c'est rendu quasiment une obligation de passer par skip ou autre du genre! & c'est pas la premiere fois que j'essaie d'appeler pour une livraison! si vous ne repondez pas enleb'ver votre numero du panphlet!
Really enjoyed their demi poulet plate. Last two evenings I've gone over ti but take out again & they were closed at 830pm instead of the advertised 9pm.
