This cute and dainty place has a great outdoor area for you to lounge around and enjoy your gelato, making it an amazing experience! The pricing of this place is very fair, and you can load up and try a variety of flavours given their big cup sizes. I ordered the four flavour size and happily chose blueberry, raspberry, strawberry and mango. In the Quebec region, blueberries are very popular and known to be the best, and the blueberry gelato did not disappoint. It was very fresh and tart and had a genuine fruit flavour. Mango and raspberry was the same. However, with strawberry, I could tell that it wasn't made with real fruit, but syrup or some artificial fruit. I would skip out on that flavour if I were you. I am a fruit lover myself, but they also had a wide selection of chocolate flavours! My friend got the Ferrero Rocher flavour and it was decadent and true to its name! I've had some of Vienna's best gelato, and this place can seriously match up to those flavours! Well done!

Fresh produces. Public bathroom. Pre-made sandwiches are fresh. The bad: Alleys very narrow. If there is a line up in front of the cash registers, expect congestion. Prices usually more expensive at IGA. One of the outside doors was locked both times we went. There is nothing special about this place, but there is nothing bad either.

Stopped here on the way to the Saguenay Fjords National Park. Very good food, especially for bar…read morefood. These people take their food prep seriously. Note to Anglophones ~ they don't speak English here. Hey, that's ok, it's their country, but keep that in mind going in. I've found that once you get out of Montreal and Quebec City, most people speak French only. I was fortunate that my wife speaks some French. We ordered the mac n cheese, duck poutine, sausage platter, and Caesar salad. The mac n cheese was quite good. The sausage platter was very tasty, but petite for the price in my opinion. The duck poutine had an awesome flavor, but the fries were a little overdone. The Caesar salad had a very mild flavor, perhaps too mild, but I like my Caesar salad to be strong. It might just be my taste. I also tried one of their in house beers. I'd definitely recommend trying one if you visit. Overall, the food here is tres bien. Bar food in the US usually consists of fried everything, so this was a nice contrast. If you're in Saguenay, it is certainly worth a stop.

Food and drinks were amazing, staff was very friendly and we got by speaking English just fine.read more

One of my local business contacts mentioned this was the place to come for delicious prepared food…read moreitems. He mentioned you must try a tourtière du Saguenay. I asked what the hell was that? He said just get one. With a beer, blueberry pie du lac St Jean, you can't go wrong! "It's a Boucherie next to a dollar store". "Just go" he said! Also mentioned was when it's the December holiday and Christmas time they need to prepare all their tourtière du Saguenay three months in advance as demand is so high. So my intrigue and curiosity was on super high alert!!! I was travelling with a cooler as I'm always looking for new food adventures. For sure I needed to stop by! We entered the store and the people there gave the look of you definitely are not from here! I explained what we were in search of and they showed us lots of local treats. Really they felt honoured we were told of their shop! One guy even spoke English to me (a rarity in the region). Fresh home made jams........Wow the strawberry when I brought home I wish I bought 4 more of! After perusing around I ended up buying three toutieres and some turkey jerky. This is the kind of place where I could seriously do some decent damage. The toutieres were in many different sizes and I bought some that were $12.49. Sure you may think expensive but these weighed like a brick. We froze them when we arrived home and I ate one tonight and it was fantastic. Big cubes of potato plus pork morsels, beef cubes and ground beef. It was a tad salty but overall a delicious meal. Easily enough for three hungry people or four moderate eaters. I'd consider it more of a cold weather comfort food but today it was delish! The turkey jerky was amazing. Not too salty and smoked turkey chunks very flavourful and meaty. Many other products were available. A full butcher shop plus seafood, jams jellies and other prepared delights like toutiere of salmon and chicken. If you are in the region and like food you must come here! If you don't you are missing out. It's an experience of a lifetime!

Locals rave about this place as "the best ice cream to grace the earth" but since i'm from Toronto,…read morei'm afraid to say that i've had MUCH better gelato before. However, considering this is such a small town with no other ice cream place in sight, I guess this place is worth trying if you're in the area. There are many flavours of both gelato and ice cream, as well as delicious and creamy soft serve. Many of the locals ordered a unique unicorn shake that had a bright blue colour and cute toppings. Honestly, not the best for a foodie like me, but cute and quaint shop for locals in the area.

Walking through the town, we saw Smokey, but with all the Elvis memorabilia, we wondered if it was Memphis style bbq.

So juicy, cokes with three processes- according to the chef- cured, sous vide, and steamed! Was it delicious! They were so friendly, and So much meat I had to take off half to eat with a baguette!
