Poutine presque parfaite. Franchement, tout ce qui manquait c'était légèrement plus de fromage (mais bon, c'est un peu l'éternel problème avec les bonnes poutines), sinon c'était vraiment super. La déco aussi est très cool, ce qu'il y a de mieux niveau'diner'.
Bref, je recommande à tous les curieux.

Wow que dire de la poutine elle est excellente les frites fraîches & croustillantes La sauce n'a pas trop le goût de BBQ malgré la couleur c'est une bonne sauce gravy & que dire du fromage frais. Le hot dog 🌭 etait aussi délicieux décor rétro & ils font même leurs propre bière d'épinette un grand coup de coeur ♥?

It should be illegal to order a poutine without their spruce beer.

Came here for The poutine & beer, the poutine gravy & cheese were very good, it had a tiny hint of sweetness to it which I loved.

Got disappointed when I tasted the beer & realized it's not actual beer, it's a kind of root beer 🤣😭
