Review Summary

Le Chic Shack is a highly regarded destination in the heart of Old Quebec, known for its vibrant atmosphere and prime location near the Château Frontenac. The restaurant consistently impresses visitors with its juicy, high quality burgers and unique takes on poutine, which feature hearty, cubed potatoes and flavorful, slow cooked toppings. Guests frequently praise the extensive selection of refreshing, house made sodas and decadent milkshakes, particularly the salted maple variety. While the venue is often busy, resulting in potential waits, the service is generally described as friendly, fast, and accommodating. The combination of fresh ingredients, creative menu options, and a beautiful setting makes this a popular and satisfying choice for a casual, gourmet meal while exploring the historic city.

C'est un petit snack type fast food qui sert de bon burgers. Si vous allez tout au fond à droite vous aurez directement en face la vue sur le château de Québec. De nuit c'est magnifique & là ça vaut vraiment le coup !

Ate here as a walk-in: had noted it was the closest restaurant to Chateau Frontenac where we were staying & the menu looked interesting.

Got seated without issue & ordered a burger, chicken burger & a poutine to share. We also ordered two boozy milkshakes (although we found out when the bill arrived that only one of the two contained alcohol - the Maple shake on the menu has a boozy cousin which is the one I ordered, but not the one I got).

The burger was good, but unfortunately the chicken was overcooked & chewy to the point I couldn't finish it. The poutine was very good - in a super savoury mushroom sauce & served with grated cheddar.

Service was OK but largely absent (I think tables in the window where the customer is facing outward can cause this unfortunately).

For a view of the Chateau & some great milkshakes this is good! The poutines was not my favourite but the burger was solid!!

Les burgers sont excellents & d'une grosseur normale. Les frites étaient bonnes & les sodas maisons sont bien (personnellement je mettrais plus de sucre). La poutine classique n'était pas une poutine : des patates grelots avec de la genre de sauce au vin & du fromage en grain. Étrange, pas tellement bon.
Puisqu'on a mangé à côté de la cuisine ouverte, l'ambiance était bruyante & on est ressorti en sentant la friture à plein nez.
Je recommande surtout pour les burgers, mais essayez de vous asseoir dans le palier du haut, plus loin de la cuisine.

Deuxièmement visite : Burgers toujours décadents! Limonade délicieuse. Les tables sur le bord des fenêtres, donnant directement sur la rue, offre la meilleure vue sur la rue, les passants & même un bout du Château.

Nice spot for good food near to the Chateau Frontenac. The fries are excellent, as are the hot sauces.

Great spot. Very low key atmosphere. Awesome view of the Château. Nice patio with heaters for the evening. The food, cocktails, & beer were excellent & the prices were great. Definitely a good spot.

You simply must stop at Le Chic Shack if you're in Old Quebec! We were right near the Château Frontenac & spotted their charming sign. Had to try their famous poutine, & it absolutely lived up to the hype-the gravy was rich, the curds were squeaky, & the chopped herbs made it feel extra gourmet. & the milkshake? Pure perfection. Creamy, cold, & topped with a mountain of whipped cream. An awesome spot for a delicious comfort meal. Highly recommend!
