Jack Le Coq is widely praised for its fried chicken, with many reviewers noting juicy, crispy chicken and a standout poutine, along with generous portions of tenders and fries and a range of sauces that keep flavors lively. The atmosphere is described as warm and retro, and service is generally quick, friendly, and the space is kept clean, making it a reliable choice for chicken lovers in Verdun. While the chicken quality is celebrated, some reviews point to price increases and occasional inconsistency in texture or flavor, changes after ownership shifts, and issues with orders such as missing items, delivery glitches, or fries going cold. Some diners prefer spicy styles like Nashville and report that the regular version can be bland without added heat, though others praise the bold sauces and the variety of menu options including burgers and mac and cheese. Overall, Jack Le Coq is viewed as a standout option for fried chicken in the area, though a few guests feel value has diminished on recent visits.

Outstandingly good food that's completely overshadowed by how ridiculously small the portions are. Consider more as a "Snack" than a "Meal" if you're eating thete.
We've order plenty of times for Jack le Coq. Normally great, but today we got these "four" tenders as part of the belle famille box. VERY small pieces, not typical for them.
Loved the Fried Chickens! I was looking for a good fried chicken restaurant that is Halal, & to my surprise it was just 5 minutes away from my home. So happy to find this. Totally worth it. The chicken was crispy on the outside with a lot of flavors, & inside it was juicy & also full of flavor. Would definitely go again. One thing that can be improved is the coleslaw salad. It wasn't the best as it had very little seasoning. But for chicken I give it a 5 star.
Such good chicken. The tenders are the best, & the pink lemonade slushie is soooo yummy. We had a waitress named Robin & she was such a sweetheart, one of the kindest I've ever had. I definitely recommend this place!
THE BEST fried chicken in Montreal! I had their Jack burger & it was so crispy & full of flavour, their fries are delicious & crispy as well! Not to mention how cool the place looks!
One of the friendliest, grooviest places to eat delicious fried chicken. What the place lacks in finesse it more than makes it up with staff (Robin & Evelyn FTW!) that really care about the place & their clients. It is one of my favourite Wellington haunts to spend a late eating enjoying an always satisfying meal in such a cool dinner atmosphere. & kudos for the Gen X playlists chaining classic 80s hits!
Fast food joint with good fried chicken. We only came in because we missed our bus & the store was brightly lit. The service was a bit slow though because there was only one person at the front desk taking orders & serving the food. The bathrooms weren't entirely clean & the tables weren't clean either.
À défaut du voyage, La croustillance du poulet mérite le détour. La bouffe est honnête pour le prix & le personnel est bien serviable & bien attentionné.
Jac Le Coq! Need I say more? This place serves fried chicken, fried chicken sandwiches with fries an various other sides like corn or macaroni salad. In my eyes, there aren't many chicken places that can compete with KFC (or with Korean friend chicken) but Jac Le Coq is definitely up there, or perhaps even beyond. I got the Pickle Jack (Look Morty, I'm a sandwich!) to go, & it was still warm when I got home 10 minutes later in -6 weather. Personally, I think the chicken could use more salt but I'm a smoker so my taste buds are not at their full strength. Super good chicken, give it a try ! The atmosphere is cool, its like a modern version of a 50s diner & while I don't drink, they do offer 2 kinds of beer to drink while eating your chicken. The employees are super nice, speedy & efficient. Especially Robin & the other multi-haired girl working with her on this night (1/15/2024). I'm sorry I didn't get your name ! All in all, as a Verduner its weird seeing a chicken place where the Dunkin was forever, but if something has to replace it, I'm glad its Jacs !! Try it out today !
