We bought some of the chocolate and it was very good. The owner was also very friendly and welcoming and provided great service. As for the coffee itself, I didn't really enjoy the latte I ordered because it tasted kind of off/burnt to me. Two of my family members ordered tea and also thought their drinks tasted strange, but everyone else enjoyed their drinks. Not sure what was up with that, but aside from the coffee tasting off, I loved everything else about this cafe!

Went here when coming back from Quebec City to Montreal. It's a little bit out of the way, but I…read morehad seen a news article about these "canele" and just had to try them for myself. Canele are a custard/pastry concoction shaped like little jelly moulds/cups - sweet but not sickly. I'm not sure how else to describe it. I like them, and like most pastries they are best when fresh. That being said, you can buy them frozen here which means you can stock up and keep some for later. I'll be going to get some more next time I'm up that way, just because they're so different and you can't get them in many places (I haven't seen them anywhere else). The staff that were there only spoke French, but that's normal for Quebec City (and pretty much guaranteed outside of the old town area). It's really not a big deal, as it only takes a few words and gestures to get as many canele as you can carry.

We walked in for a late lunch at 2:30 pm. The staff was very welcoming. The restaurant is not big but it wasn't busy at the time. Prices were reasonable. We ordered the most popular poutine, the gaston medium size. It came with minced steak, onions, sausages, cheese curds, fries, and gravy. I had poutine before in Illinois and I thought it was mid, nothing worth going back for. The Canadian version is way better. The cheese curds taste different than the ones in Illinois and Wisconsin. It was soft and went well with the housemade gravy. The meat and onions were fresh. The fries were soft and not too soggy. The flavor of the whole thing was superb. It's weird that the American versions of other countries' food always taste subpar and off.

Chez Gaston is the kind of hidden gem you almost don't want to tell people about. It's tiny--maybe…read moreten seats if you squeeze--but it feels like stepping into a time capsule in the best way. Old‑school charm, family‑run warmth, and a friendly vibe that makes you feel like a regular on your first visit. When it gets busy (and it does), it's perfect for takeout. I tried the Trio 3 Combo, and wow. The hot dog comes wrapped in butter‑toasted white bread and topped with creamy coleslaw--simple, nostalgic, and ridiculously satisfying. The small poutine that comes with it is loaded with squeaky cheese curds. Not a sprinkle... a mountain. Then there's the Gaston Poutine. This one is a full meal: heaps of cheese curds, crispy bacon, and ground beef all swimming in rich gravy. Hearty, comforting, and honestly one of the best poutines I've ever had. If you love supporting small, local, family‑owned spots--and you appreciate classic Quebec comfort food done right--Chez Gaston is absolutely worth the stop
