Overall Roch le Coq is seen as a popular stop for fried chicken and poutine with generous portions, juicy crispy chicken, solid fries, and tasty sauces, plus friendly, attentive service and a welcoming Plateau vibe; most reviews praise the flavor, the value, and the quick service, and highlight standout poutine and popcorn chicken, though a few dishes fall short and a handful of comments point to occasional uneven service or timing.
We didn't want to wait 40 minutes in -20 weather for La Banquise & came across this place. THANK GOD WE DID! the poutine is absolutely delicious. Great portion size, friendly service, absolutely delicious poutine.
Will come back for sure!
MI had a great experience at the Plateau location! The staff were super friendly. The chicken & fries were delicious. I was already craving it again the next day!

We had a wonderful time at Roch le Coq! My family & I visited Montreal for a day & needed a quick lunch before continuing our adventure. Happened to come across Roch le Coq & honestly we have no regret! The staff were incredibly kind & accommodating. They even helped my partner & I with figuring out where to pay for parking. As for the food, their classic poutine was hands down the best poutine I have ever tasted in my life! I ordered the popcorn chicken separately & it was amazing!! The chicken was juicy & tender & crispy even a few hours later! (Sister ate the leftover chicken on the way back to TO). Their burgers were so filling & had a harmonious mix of flavours & it also came with fries that were absolutely delectable! Will definitely come again when we get the chance to visit Montreal next year!!
Extremely nice staff!!! & I personally really enjoyed the poutine base, but I felt like the popcorn chicken (while amazing on its own) kind of doesn't pair well with it. The big portion is generous & was enough for the two of us

I mess with their chicken popcorn poutine! The sauce is unlike anything I've had before, the fries taste like they're fried in butter. Chicken is crispy af, yumm put in me mouf.
De très loin le meilleur poulet frit en ville! À titre de comparaison, J... le coq vient loin derrière! On parle ici de poulet de grain! Tout est fait maison & avec amour! Fraîcheur absolue garantie! Gravy savoureux, frites délicieuses, sauces hors pair (leur hoisin & celle au miel en particulier!) Personnel accueillant & souriant. Service impeccable. Goût & qualité étaient au rendez-vous sur TOUT ce que j'ai pu essayer à ma première visite aujourd'hui! Un incontournable sur le Plateau qui laissse un agréable arrière goût de revenez-y! Mes papilles vous remercient d'exister!
