Decidedly average. If you're looking for some fuel for the day, definitely worth visiting. But you won't be talking about this meal for days to come. The coffee was surprisingly good, though!

Nous étions 4 personnes. Nous avons aimé le foie de veau, le manicotti ricotta & le boudin noir sauf la bavette de veau de lait (viande coriace). Service impeccable. Un peu chère pour les plats choisis.

We've been to Cochon twice. Once at each location in old Quebec City. Both are comfortable locations, although we liked the one in Petit Champlain a little more. Had lunch once & brunch once. Coffee drinks are good, but the brunch/breakfast is definitely the star. Lunch was just okay. No offense to the restaurant, but they felt like plays off of American food, instead of truly being French food. Also, & this is small, but if customers like us are trying to order, converse, etc. in French, please let us try instead of just switching back to English! Otherwise, how do we get good at speaking more French when we visit!?

We ate breakfast here every morning for the 6 days we stayed in Quebec City. The food & service was wonderful so we never had a reason to switch! Magnificent!
