Les avis sur Jack le Coq montrent une nourriture appréciée pour son poulet frit croustillant et juteux, ses tenders et burgers, avec des portions généreuses et des sauces variées, mais le tout est frappé d'un rapport qualité prix souvent jugé élevé et de constantes préoccupations liées à l'hygiène et au service: tables et toilettes sales, ambiance parfois bruyante, lenteur et erreurs fréquentes dans les commandes, et des soucis d'approvisionnement ou d'ustensiles. Certaines critiques soulignent aussi une éventuelle contamination croisée avec du porc qui peut poser problème pour les clients halal. Malgré ces points négatifs, la saveur et la fraîcheur de la viande restent réconfortantes et font revenir certains clients, surtout lorsque le personnel est aimable et efficace et que l'ambiance rétro est agréable.
After one year, I came back & am changing my review & rating. The chicken is excellent. Great choices. My Favourite is the Pickle Chicken sandwich. My son keeps coming back for a box with pieces of chicken. The service has greatly improved & was fantastic. The restaurant is very clean. Big thanks to my son for insisting I try this place again.
Great alternative to St Hubert. Decent prices & while you need to wait 10 ish minutes for your food, it's fresh & not frozen. The burger was a little difficult to finish because of the size of chicken piece. The burger fell apart early on. Great 50's diner atmosphere.

We tried their fried chicken & fries. The breading was crunchy, but the chicken itself was dense & lacked enough flavor to make me want another piece. The fries were tasty, especially with the light & peppery gravy that goes with the fried chicken. The diner's interior has a cool, retro style. Overall, it was a good experience.
First time eating at Jack Le Coq. Chicken was really crispy, salty but not extremely like some other restaurants. I find it was big portions. The ambiance feels like & old dinner but with pastel colors. Its cute!
Fried chicken Is ok, a bit dry. Cleanliness of the place was horrible tho & I'm not talking about the kitchen. The dining area was a bit dirty but the washroom... Worth a try for the food but do a take out.
Food ordered: Honey chicken combo, with 2 red tenders & gravy on the side. Review: Place has a funky style, staff friendly. But I care about the food. The fries? Bad. Tiny, cold, slightly overdone. Tenders? Bad, under seasoned, not spicy. Dryyyyyyy as the dessert. Gravy? Didn't go with the fries or the tenders. It's decent gravy. But doesn't match the flavour of the other menu items. Sandwich was probably the best hot honey sandwich I've had. Like. It was so weird having such garbage sides & then an amazing main. The quebec style coleslaw was perfect, lots of pickles, good hot honey & the chicken was tender & had some moisture. It honestly carried the visit for me. I'd probably go back for just the sandwich next time.

So aesthetically pleasing inside this place! The decorations took me as soon as we entered, it was so cute. I'm always looking for a good fried chicken & this place did NOT disappoint. The chicken is crispy with a good crunch once you hit into it the breading is flavourful but not overpowering & the chicken is cooked to perfection not dry actually pretty moist. I got the Jaq Fromage which the rest of the sandwich was just ok nothing crazy special. It came with (McCain) fries & a small drink. If you go there for the chicken alone you won't be disappointed
Popped in here for lunch right at opening time. Delicious food, friendly owner, & generous portions for main chicken meals. My mom had the wrap, which was enormous.
I finally tried Jack Le Coq fried chicken. The chicken itself is brined giving it flavour & "juiciness", however the batter leaves a lot to be desired. The batter itself is unseasoned & too thick. It is a wet batter so if applied too thick it just makes a doughy crust with a slime layer between it & the chicken.
The pieces themselves are very strange. I don't know who's cutting these pieces or if they just buy pre-cut chicken pieces. I bought an 8-piece & I had two tails & a neck?! I find that very odd & frankly, lazy. I have photos, but it seems I cannot post them here. For the price you pay, you should expect them to be a little more discerning about what they feed you.
Lastly, there were only 2 customers there on a Saturday at 11:45am, yet the bathrooms were dirty & smelled awful. I opened the door & just backed out of there.
One & done for this diner, sorry.
2-stars because the Franchise Business plan & branding were on-point. Unfortunately their product is more the branding rather than the chicken. Nice boxes.
