Le Chic Shack

Went for lunch, insanely busy as its peak tourist season. Waiters were very nice & hardworking. We got our food relatively quick however we ordered more items after we got our meals including water for multiple people (we were a table of 6) & the water took a while to come. One person didn't even get any water despite asking. This is totally okay as it was busy & it is easy to miss one or two things here & there.

How good is the food? Depends on what you get. The milkshakes, soda, & fries are fantastic. A regular order of fries is a very generous portion. The vegan poutine is.... weird. The sauce isn't even trying to resemble a gravy, it really seemed like it was just their tomato soup poured over some potatoes & cheese curds (i asked for regular cheese curds as i am a vegetarian, not vegan. It normally comes with tofu curds). I ate it but as i was expecting a more gravy like sauce, i did not enjoy. I wish the menu described it a little better. The portion was also weird. We had asked how the portions were & the waiter showed us the bowls they would come in. I ordered a small because it looked like a solid amount for a heavy dish. The bowl was maybe a little more than half full. Lesson learned. We got a couple regular orders of fries for the table after as a few of us were still hungry.
I would absolutely go again, but will be opting for something else for sure.

I ordered the garden burger (vegetarian) with fries & a homemade raspberry soda.

Let's start with the burger. The patty was mostly rice & pumpkin seeds-an interesting concept-but it completely fell apart. I'm not sure what the binding ingredient was (if any), but it didn't hold its shape at all. I ended up eating it with a knife & fork, which kind of defeats the purpose of a burger. It came topped with tomato, lettuce, marinated onions, & beets on a brioche bun. I had to add some Firebarns lime & jalapeno sauce just to bring it to life-it was bland overall.

Now, the fries? Fantastic. Freshly cut, cooked perfectly, & topped with a unique salty-sweet seasoning that really worked. & the homemade raspberry soda was a winner too-fresh, tangy, & not overly sweet. Both the fries & the drink were standout items.

The atmosphere was also a big plus-welcoming, laid-back, & with a cool, original vibe that made the experience feel thoughtful & intentional.
Overall, I'm giving it 4 stars. The burger needs serious improvement-if you're offering a vegetarian option, make it one worth coming back for. & only accepting credit or debit? That's a bit of a letdown in 2025. Still, the fries, the drink, & the vibe saved the day

Delicious place, enjoyed the food & homemade sodas. The fries were crispy & just right. Great stop for any tourists going on the bus tour or watching the live entertainment.

The Forestiere poutine is one of the best dishes I've ever had in my life (plus handmade sodas & milkshakes)--I had to go twice!

The resto is small & usually crowded but comfortable. Expect wait times to be about 30mins when busy. Burgers are great but not huge - good buns, soft but didnt get soggy, gravy was odd, possibly too thick. Milkshakes stole the show, the house made sodas are great too. Everything looks homemade. We all preferred the fries over the chips but both were good. Washrooms are not accessible (like most of Q city)

I got the Sugar Shack poutine bowl, & it was some of the best food i have ever had. The raspberry soda was amazing & really refreshing. i don't understand how they make it from scratch like that. For dessert, we ordered the maple caramel milkshake to share with the whole family, & it was STUPENDOUS. Best milkshake of my life, & i've had a lot of milkshakes. Overall, this place should be a 5 star restaraunt, & i would 100% recommend it.

Ambiance & serveurs sympathiques, les burgers sont petits & les poutines « régulieres » copieuses.
Preferez l'original pour avoir le goût classique.
Les frites à la truffe sont trop grasses.
Les sodas maison sont bons

Sat on the patio for lunch. We had burgers & a chicken salad, both were excellent. They make their own sodas here & they were refreshing & delicious.
