A bit pricey but The poutine bacon was delicious.

You don't go there for the decor or to count your calories, but as long as you can afford good comfort food, you might as well do it the right way. In my opinion, one of the best restaurants of its kind in Quebec. We don't skimp on the amount of pizza topping (try the Bessons special which comes with a side of meat sauce). Their half-brown, half-bbq poutine sauce with just the right amount of spices is really out of the ordinary and does honor to the city that saw the birth of this dish so popular with Quebecers. And what about the service, efficient and fast but without making us feel rushed, and above all, very friendly. An address to remember!

Took 45 minutes to get a poutine and hot dogs a Sunday at around 1pm. Hearing then talking, they were low staff and the kitchen couldn't keep up. However, looks like an isolated case as I went previously and it was ok. I definitely recommend their poutine with specifically the bbq sauce, it's delicious!

Super good little CANTEEN!! The Pizza is super good and what can we say about the delicious Poutine with 4 choices of sauce. The only small problem is that the restaurant is very small. I highly recommend this Canteen. In addition, the staff is adorable and ready to do anything to give you impeccable service. Parking: Small parking lot

I just saw what poutine from this place looks like. When youre saving money on sauce and cheese, youre better off just selling petates.

We ordered a pizza to bring. Thank you for the reviews because we came here thanks to your comments. Nice welcome with a smile. Fast service. Succulent pizza with lots of pepperoni and cheese. Retro-style restaurant with benches. The restaurant was full of customers on a Friday evening. There are several picnic tables outside. I recommend.

Wow . On the way to Montreal from Quebec, the whole family decided to stop and eat at the Cantine Les Bessons. Very good decision . the table d hôte Lasagne was my choice served with an excellent homemade cream of carrot soup The lasagna was huge and delicious with a surprising homemade spaghetti sauce. And the desert, a hint of homemade wild berry tart . The restaurant is small but wow seriously you want to eat well while passing through Drummond town and went to grab a bite to eat at the Les Bessons canteen.

Fast delivery, lack of sauce in the poutine and cheese not as good as usual. The $2 delivery fee I have difficulty understanding this again because due to inflation we support our restaurants but 1 poutine and 1 chessburger + taxes + tip to the delivery person total $34 is still expensive? Where does this $2 fee go?

Good I was tested because I got some good reviews I had 2 toaster hot dogs and 1 poutine. The sausage would be well cooked, Mayo ketchup, ok, but the bread . Half cooked. 20 minute wait The poutine was hot, sauce ok. Clean dining room But I dont think Ill come back, finding it a bit dull 20 minutes of waiting for the half-cooked bread on the other hand the service was excellent

I heard about this canteen via Facebook. Saying it was THE best poutine in Drummondville. I dont know if its THE best but its excellent! Very good value for money. Their mixed sauce is thick and succulent. I recommend this canteen 5/5 Update July 30, 2023: Prices have increased enormously, almost $6-7 more for poutine and their mixed sauce. I dont know if the recipe has changed but it is much sweeter. I wouldnt go back unfortunately

December 22, 2023

I ordered 2 pizzas. No sauce, too much pepperoni literally 1 inch thick, very monotonous taste and the pizza was extremely greasy flooded in oil.

★★
December 22, 2023

I must have ingested 1 pound of pepperoni, it s mind-blowing. It should be illegal to put that much meat in like that. In addition, the pizza arrived FLOODED with oil. Terrible

I paid 25 dollars for a medium hamburger and onion poutine and I tasted a medium well done fries and my hamburger tasted burnt.

Quite ordinary. Excellent poutine, poor service. A single customer has to wait outside (we forget that they have no customers)... so comically take the time to tell me that you have to wait outside, of course by lowering your mask below your chin.. I understand, Im going to go elsewhere only customer can wait inside sheltered from bad weather Addition: ordered a pudding at 5:56 p.m. because no time to wait. I arrive at 6:08 p.m. and they cant find my name. Finally, they found my order. I had time to wait, I have to leave Getting worse and worse I removed a star
