The restaurant offers a nostalgic, cozy atmosphere that captures the classic essence of a traditional casse-croûte, complemented by friendly, efficient service and a vibrant, unpretentious vibe.

This place is my favorite place I've visited on my trip of 7 days . Wandered in at midnight & the tunes were rocking & the boys were absolutely killing it behind the counter !!! Had the goat burger & it didn't disappoint . This is where I will be eating the rest of the trip !!! Well done it's a 10 out of 10 five stars isn't enough

A small, cozy restaurant with a nostalgic vibe. The burger was really good & tasty, & I loved that it was grilled right in front of me with fresh ingredients. The goat cheese on top gave it a unique & delicious flavor. Another thing I appreciated, there was no bad smell of burned oil or food at all. Overall, a great experience, & I'll definitely come back to try other items on the menu. Highly recommended.

Delicious hand made'casse-croute' staples like poutine's, burgers, & hand made traditional fries. Poutines are next level, stacked with fresh local cheese curds, gravy, & your choice of toppings. The galvaude is a traditional version topped with roasted chicken breast & green peas. This one was perfect & packed with chicken & peas! Fantastic value, for Delicious scratch made food. Im having the Michigan dog next time!

The poutine was simple with good texture on the fries, & not overly salty gravy. The burger was juicy & the toppings tasted fresh.
