Had an amazing lunch today with the croquettes, classic poutine & maple syrup pie for dessert. Paschal was an excellent server & went above & beyond to ensure we would have an authentic Québécois experience! It made our day!!

Une cuisine québécoise traditionnelle avec une décoration typique & un service au top. Très bonne soirée à La Bûche où nous avons notamment partagé « la cochonne », une assiette réunissant plusieurs recettes phares comme la poutine, les côtes levées (ribs) ou encore la cuisse de canard. Bon & copieux,

- shepards pie (pate chinois): a refined take onto the quebecois dish. the mashed potato was creamy, the beef was irrefutably soft & tender, the corn was a nice addition bcs it added some creaminess. but i like the fruits ketchup a lot- it added a contrasting sweet & sourness to the otherwise mostly creamy & rich palette.
- duck wings: they were hella crispy but while i appreciate the thought, they didnt add any flavour.
- crepe quebecois: while very nice, it's just your crepe.
- pouding chômeur: leave room for dessert bcs the portion is very big just for one person! the cake was crumbly, buttery & tender & can be eaten just alone. the maple syrup cream along w it is very good too.

An interesting to dine & have a drink in what can be described as a truly Quebecois experienece The atmosphere of the folks there in a very well decorated interior if one can say in that it is a bit like a cabane a sucre or sugar shack There is plenty to eat & the staff are super friendly Highly recommended if you are in Quebec City Worth a visit !!!!

This place definitely has a nice old style aesthetic, but expect it to be quite loud, & sort of touristy feeling. The bar is quite nice & I actually met some people too, you can see that their kitchen gets quite busy.
My server was pretty good, wasn't left for too long but felt rushed occasionally, but I did meet some nice people at the bar.
I got the shepherds pie which was really good, & the corn on it was very buttery & the beef was done very well, quite elevated. However it was quite expensive for what it was, & doesn't really live up to the Québecois uniqueness hype, very similar to a standards shepherds pie.
The dessert was a poor mans pudding however which was amazing & loaded with maple syrup, & something I've never had before. Felt quite sick after that but I don't regret it.
So if you come here maybe just get one of the maple based desserts since I feel the mains are very good food, but not worth the price & not all that unique. But the desserts on the other hand are amazing.

Belle expérience québécoise dans le vieux Québec. Sans doute un peu trop cher pour la qualité des plats

Went for brunch on Easter Monday with my family (3 adults & 2 kids) & really enjoyed it.

The service was excellent: La Bûche is lucky to have servers like Yoan & Audrey. Yoan recommended the Cassolette du bûcheron, & it was really, really good - eggs, bacon, ham, sausage, mushrooms, béchamel, potatoes, spinach, & cheese curd in a mini cast iron. There was something special about it that set it apart from a typical breakfast plate. Also, the toast was like eating a cloud.

The menus are printed in old-school Canada workbook style like the ones we had in school growing up. & yeah, everyone wears flannel, but I don't know anything more Québécois than bathroom soap dispensers made out of Labatt 50 bottles.

Hearty, tasty food, fun vibe, good service. Definitely going back.
