Occupying the space of the former Pub du Pont, Microbrasserie des Cantons opens its doors in a location that is both rich in history and has been the host of several beautiful human stories. A place that is seen as a gathering point for both beer enthusiasts and fans of our beautiful Eastern Townships region. Microbrasserie Des Cantons is led by a team of passionate and resourceful young entrepreneurs who aim to offer an alternative to the existing culinary offerings and contribute to revitalizing the area.
Des Cantons - Microbrasserie is a warm, inviting pub by the water with a beautiful terrace and a cozy fireplace, where the beer selection and the food consistently receive praise for variety and flavor; the atmosphere is lively and friendly, making it a popular choice for friends and casual dinners, and the view of the lake enhances the experience, but some visits report slower or uneven service, occasional menu item shortages, and portions that can feel small for the price during peak times, overall painting a picture of a beloved local spot worth booking in advance for peak hours and terrace seating when weather permits.
Quelle belle soirée nous avons passé avec des amis.Le serveur Mathieu était très attentionné, en fait tout le staff. Quelle belle ambiance avec ...j oublie son nom, la fille de Vincent Valieres. Je recommande votre resto. Merci
Nous sommes allé un samedi soir ensoleillé. C'était bondé de gens. Service ok compte tenu de l'achalandage & de la main-d'oeuvre disponible. La bouffe était tout à fait excellente. J'y retournerai c'est certain. Oui c'est un peu dispendieux, mais c'est devenu la nouvelle réalité dans les restos. Belle terrasse sur le bord de l'eau.
Superbe soirée improvisée! Réservation dernière minute & ils avaient de la place pour 5 personnes sur leur grande terrasse. La plus belle vue de Magog sans aucun doute ! Service excellent par Alexandre & tout le personnel en général ! Les pizzas étaient délicieuses, la salade césar grillée est un incontournable & la bavette aussi. Bref, nous y retournerons cet été !!!
La musique du band extérieur était beaucoup trop forte pour les gens assis a l'intérieur & nous devions parler très fort. Si nous aurions voulu écouter le band, nous serions aller à l'extérieur. J'ai vu des gens essayer de fermer la porte du balcon pour pouvoir moins entendre la musique.

The food at Des Cantons Microbrasserie in Magog is fantastic! We enjoyed the ribs & burgers, & they were delicious, meeting all our expectations. However, we were surprised by the beer on tap (Back Country), which tasted very different from their canned beers sold in stores. It wasn't bad, but the flavor profile was so different that I double-checked to make sure it was the right beer. It was. Unfortunately, it took 1 hour & 30 minutes to receive our main dishes, even though the restaurant wasn't full. It was frustrating to see other patrons, who arrived after us, getting their food before us. Our waiter eventually admitted he had forgotten our order & had just put it in. As compensation, we were promised that our two entrées would be on the house. However, we only received one of them-the crispy cheese, which was good. The other entrée, the "crevettes bang bang," never arrived, which was disappointing as we were looking forward to it. In the end, we were compensated with one entrée, one beer, & soft drinks for the kids. Despite the wait & the service hiccups, the food was delicious & worth it. Most servers seemed to be avoiding patrons, & we noticed from their expressions that many were also tired of waiting. This wasn't a major issue for us as we were able to enjoy the nice weather by the water while we waited. Management should ensure there are enough staff to avoid such situations in the future, as not everyone may be as patient. Despite the service issues, we loved the experience & will definitely return. The beer from Des Cantons is excellent, & we want to continue supporting this local business. Sometimes service lapses happen, & I hope management takes steps to improve. The staff seemed stressed & were doing their best with limited resources. We hope for better service next time.
Excellent service, excellents plats. La terrasse est cozy & l'emplacement magnifique. Même s'il pleuvait un peu, les gazebos nous ont protégés de la pluie. À refaire.
Loved the chicken club sandwich. Blonde beer was very refreshing on a warm evening. Service was excellent & the view was beautiful. Thanks for the wonderful evening
Many problems with our reservation. We had reserved for six by the water (the day before we saw there were 6 people eating by the river) & they told us this was not possible. It was our friend's 70th anniversary & we had requested a dessert & candle. through Opentable. No dessert arrived & the manager owner said I should have asked the waitress. Impossible as I was sitting by the birthday girl. & most importanly, my friend is celiac. We had chosen this restaurant as there was a poutine that was supposedly gluten free. When she ordered we found out the fries were cooked in the same oil as other fried food. She ended up ordering a burger wrapped in letture with a side dish of salad. The side dish had fried onions -- a no-go & the beef was half raw, My friend ended up eating 1/2 burger pattie for $24 + TAX + TIP.. The only positive of this restaurant is its location & the wonderful server that wax extremely patient wwith us. The manager/owner was of absolute no help. She does not understand gluten free & a celiac condition. SHe informed me that celiacs should not be eating fries!!! & my last statment is that noone was there to greet us ... we had to find our own table with 3 friends sitting on a bench & cushion.
Very disappointed with the misleading menu. We were expecting gluten free options as menu indicated but that was not the case. Finally my friend settled on a burger with lettuce, no bun, & a salad. When the salad came had fried onions. It was sent back. Her burger was also quite pink. A regular salad came after she was done eating. It was a very disappointing expensive experience for her. Server we had was very nice but no host or hostess at door to seat us. I think someone needs to review the menu so that it's not misleading to customers.
