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.
Very delicious fried chicken. Tried their burgers: Classic Jack, Jack Miel, & box of 8 chicken pieces. Also tried the poutine, I would prefer the poutine to have more sauce, because mine didn't have enough sauce & the cheese wasn't able to melt.. but I guess that's personal preference.

Bonne bouffe, livraison ultra rapide, mais à chaque commande on oublie d'inclure au moins un article dans notre livraison. J'ignore qui oublie quoi dans la chaîne. Au moins, ils offrent compensation monétaire ou re-livraison. Par contre les livreurs doivent être contents qqch de rare d'avoir à livrer deux fois à la même place en 30 minutes.
It was good chicken, it was tasty. I took a classic burger & the 3 chicken combo with fries, the burger was ok but the chicken itself was very crispy, definetely would come back for that.
This place used to serve great fried chicken-I might have had the best fried chicken I have ever had in this place about two years ago, right when Covid was wrapping up its vicious end. Unfortunately, the food is no longer what it used to be. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it's just not the same. That said, it's not bad food, but it certainly used to be a lot better. I hope it will return to its former glory. We will certainly continue visiting this place.
Je m'attendais à mieux. Certais très chère & les portion etait minuscule. La poutine avait 4 morceaux de fromage à l'intérieur...si c'est pas trois. Le goût du poulet était bon par contre. On c'est aussi prix deux petit pain à part & il goûtait le vieux. Je ne retournerai plus à ce restaurant...
Mais qu'est-ce qu'il se passe donc... Pain froid, sauce insuffisante, ognon grossièrement coupé. Ce n'est pas à la hauteur de leurs standards... ni de leurs prix (cela devrait coûter 5-6$ & non pas le double!)

Sommes allés ma femme & moi aujourd'hui 28 février, journée de bordée de neige à votre établissement (Jack le coq) pour la première fois & avons bien été servis très bonne qualité pour le poulet croustillant à souhait mais peux pas dire la même chose pour les frites que nous avons trouvé très ordinaire genre Benny's. Nous souhaiterions que vous goûteriez aux frites de Costco qui sont d'excellentes & croustillantes frites tout comme celles du IGA pour leurs repas sur place. Si vous pouviez remplacer vos frites pour celles mentionnées ça vaudrait une étoile de plus !!!
This is the third time I've had chicken from this place. The food is delicious. There is plenty of seating available & there is a small parking lot. I ordered takeout & I was a little surprise how long I had to wait for my meal . As I've seen people coming in after me, & receiving their orders & leaving while I had to wait.. The staff are friendly & helpful. But it's not cheap, I find it a little expensive for the portion. Because of this, I only order occasionally.
Before posting my review, we had first done take out & then dined in a month later in order to be more accurate with the review. Sandwiches were very good! Chicken was moist & crispy. Service & atmosphere was very good. All in all we enjoyed the food & the experience!
