The butternut squash dish was wow, something else. Had no idea what to expect but that totally wasn't it. It was so so good. My wife & I had a lot of food while in Canada/Montreal/Quebec City over the holiday weekend & this was the best meal we enjoyed the entire trip. We are so glad & thankful that LCP was our last meal of the year. Cheers to the bartender as well! Our cocktails & mocktails were great! Thank you!

We had dinner there. Loved the place. Just 4 or 5 appetizer, 4 5 mains, 3 dessert. The waiter will come to the table & explain the whole menu ❤️Interesting dishes, & very well executed. Butternut squash with duck ham & egg. Crispy bacon with shrimp & kale salad. Blood pudding, apple & potato. Atlantic cod with cauliflower, swiss chard & radicchio. Good cocktails. Reservations highly recommended.

Favorite restaurant of our whole trip! The atmosphere, service, food, & cocktails were top tier. I’ve been daydreaming about this pasta since I had it last week.

Nous avons passé une magnifique soirée bien installé à une belle petite table. L’ambiance est classe, sans trop en faire & le service était convivial tout au long de la soirée. Vous avez droit à une jolie vue sur la cuisine où vous pouvez voir œuvrez ces artistes culinaires. Au niveau de la nourriture, nous avons dégusté de magnifiques saveurs toutes très bien équilibrées. Le gravlax de saumon était à tomber. Pour les repas principaux, nous avons partagé le canard & les pâtes cassarece. Je n’ai jamais mangé un repas aussi bien balancé & bien apprêté que le canard. Toutes les bouchées étaient parfaites. Les pâtes étaient goûteuses & bien crémeuse. Les cocktails étaient très très biens d’osés. Honnêtement, lors de l’addition, je m’attendais à bien plus cher pour l’expérience que nous avons eu. Le prix est à 1000% valable. Merci pour cette belle expérience que nous avons hâte de renouvele

We really enjoyed our dinner at Le Clocher Penche. They have great cocktails served in vintage barware. We share a bunch of dishes. I would definitely recommend the tuna tataki & the duck. All the food was very well prepared. The service was good & the atmosphere was very cozy. A neighborhood gem!
