POUTINE WEEK 2025.
- 2025 Poutine Week - Pot Roast Poutine – $16.00: Generally, the poutine was standard, medium quality, but perfectly balanced with all the elements. The fries were medium to thick cut and mediumish quality fries. The white cheddar cheese curds were great, but might have been better on top so they don’t melt since the squishy texture is what makes the curds special in poutine. The beef and gravy were succulent. They also added two cooked carrots which I think matched and added a great robust homestyle flavor. The onions were not as noticed but good.
Comparing this to other contenders, I sit on the fence. While the quality is not there, it is the largest portion I tried so far, though not by a wide margin.
Water was served in glass containers with straws.
- Service: It was table service, but it was a bit distracted. We did not get menus, but that was probably because I was wearing my Poutine Week shirt and quickly ordered the poutine. Everything was as ordered and we had our water filled at all times. The poutine was served VERY quickly.
- Atmosphere: Fairly standard bar with loud music. It was very difficult to talk, but that depends on why you are there. It was a bit looser atmosphere, but still clean for how busy it was. We sat at a table with a bench seat and chair. They also had standard tables and chairs, taller tables with chairs, bar seating, and outdoor seating.
- Conclusion: If you like a place to hang out, listen to loud music, and be whatever, this is your place.
