Founded in 1945, the restaurant Au Petit Poucet will introduce you to Quebec flavors through a typically Quebec menu.
A rustic and comforting decor, where you will feel like you are at the chalet. The huge central fireplace will ensure a warm atmosphere throughout your meal. Everything is there to give you a unique culinary experience!
We are located in Val-David, a charming village in the heart of the magnificent Laurentides region. You will also find a wide range of recreational and cultural activities nearby, which will certainly make you appreciate the region.
Au Petit Poucet is described as a warm rustic Quebec breakfast and lunch spot in the Laurentians, with a cozy chalet vibe, a large open fireplace, and a roomy waiting area where complimentary coffee and hot chocolate are offered to help pass the time. The menu features generous portions of traditional Quebec staples such as ham with maple syrup, baked beans, tourtiere, cretons, and house made breads and jams, with a noted emphasis on pork dishes and sugar shack style specialties in season. The overall experience is praised for friendly and attentive service, good value, and a family friendly atmosphere, making it a go to for brunch or apres ski moments, though waits can be long on weekends and reservations are rare or limited to large groups. The place is considered an institution in the region, delivering comforting homemade flavors and a memorable ambiance that is often worth the wait.
Excellent french Canadian cuisine. Their specialty is their ham, homemade smoked slowly with maple syrup. Yummy. Very good menu & reasonable price. So popular, there always a waiting , but they built a cool lobby with a central wood, chairs & free coffee as you wait.
It's a comfortable spot with a large comprehensive menu. The food is hearty & homemade. A warm fire pit in the foyer & chalet architecture give it a chill apre-ski vibe. The service was very attentive & super friendly. Their service team shared duties seamlessly & the meal was flawless.

Le petit Poucet n'a plus de preuves à fournir, c'est une véritable institution dans la région avec son immense salle à manger dans un chalet en bois rond. La cuisine généreuse en portion, le personnel accueillant & sympathique ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus fabuleuse. Les repas sont arrivés rapidement & sont chauds. Les prix sont abordables & le comptoir charcuterie est vraiment accessible & donne envie de tout acheter. À prévoir dans vos déplacement au pays de Séraphin
Menu déjeuner/diner original & portions généreuses.
Personnel très serviable & attentif.
Temps d'attente assez long.
Serait intéressant d'offrir la possibilité de faire une réservation pour réduire la file d'attente.
Amazing breakfast spot! Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, & delicious food. Everything was fresh & flavorful, & the coffee was excellent. A must-try if you're in Quebec!
Un vrai bijou pour un brunch typiquement québécois ! L'ambiance du restaurant est extrêmement chaleureuse, avec une magnifique salle d'attente qui donne déjà le ton. La nourriture est délicieuse & très abordable, offrant un rapport qualité-prix exceptionnel. Petit bonus : pendant l'attente, avant d'être placé à sa table, le restaurant offre du café & du chocolat chaud avec de petites douceurs
⚠? Petit conseil : il n'y a pas de réservation & l'attente peut atteindre jusqu'à deux heures. Il faut idéalement venir en début ou fin de matinée, ou en début d'après-midi pour profiter au mieux de cette expérience.

Really enjoy Au Petit Poucet for breakfast. Was looking for something different than the usual spots in Montreal & decided to try this restaurant on the recommendation of a friend. Everything was delicious from beginning to end! We both took the Ogre dish which came with eggs, sautéed potatoes, bacon, ham, beans with ham & pain ménage. Portions were generous & left the restaurant extremely satisfied!
