We wanted an authentic pub experience & not'pretend Irish/British' for tourists. Pub L'Oncle Antoine looked perfect. We were not disappointed in terms of ambience. The history of this charming cellar pub, with low, rounded ceilings, & brickwork is cozy & authentic. Service was friendly & fast, & the draught pints were cold & priced right. If you're a pub, the first two priorities are pints, & pints. They nailed it. Food is the 3rd priority & at L'Oncle, was a dismal disappointment. Start with French Onion Soup: French chefs (& home cooks) everywhere weep tears of sadness at L'Oncle's mozzarella massacre of this iconic dish, claimed by their menu to be'authentic.' It is definitely not. The cheese layer is a solid 1.5 inches thick...more gluey that gooey (as if'gooey' is good either - which it isn't!) We scraped a half pound blob of cheese off the top & there was another half pound left. Yuk. The open-faced ham & cheese sandwich was another disaster. The culprit (what a surprise!) was the mountain of mozzarella cheese plastered all over it via the cook's brick-layer trowel at least 3/4 inch thick. If you think to bring your own trowel, you can maybe dig through the layer of cheese to find a sandwich somewhere. Don't get me wrong: I love cheese. The chef needs to ditch the cheap mozzarella on the soup & use Gruyere/Emmenthal instead - & like 50% less. Charge more if they have to. It'd be worth it. Even if I'm half-Italian, which I am, I'm not gonna adulterate onion soup with mozzarella. Ham croquettes love cheese. How about cheddar? Swiss? Raclette? Anything but mozzarella! The wings were OK. Cooked nicely. Under-seasoned & no dipping sauces.

My partner found the place, reviews said it looked like a cave, The stunning historic stonework & arched ceilings create a beautiful, unique atmosphere. We visited three times with friends during our trip, & the staff was fantastic every single time.

We got recommendations for other places from the bartenders & when we asked where we should go next from those places we were told this Pub L'oncle Antoine. The bartender network is strong here. Trust your bartenders, Thank you for some great experiences

Carful of the maple whiskey.

Great pub in Quebec city with a chill/ fun vibe. Servers are great, drinks are fairly priced. A great spot to hang out after a dinner in the old town! I also had the French onion soup one night & it was great!

Chuck was lovely. Great service, good recommendations for places to visit around the town. Recommend for small bites (though the French onion soup was delightful) & pints with side shots of maple whiskey. Atmosphere was chill, games in the back if you want to play board games with your peeps.
