Bistro Coqlicorne in Gatineau

The food was extremely greasy. Both servers were very rude with bad attitude, partly because I asked for English menu, which they did not have. Despite spending $70 for lunch, I felt extremely unwelcomed.

Friendly atmosphere. Top service, cuisine, creative. And good beer.

After eating there for the second time I have to give this place 1*. I wouldnt recommend it to anyone. I ordered one of the single worst things Ive ever eaten at a restaurant, fruit defendu. I stopped eating after two bites and cannot comprehend how its even offered. Its like a mixture of 4-5 different non-complimentary flavours that make it excessively rich. Ok, thats my opinion, fair enough, but at least communicate with your customers a bit more considerately. I told the waitress I couldnt eat it, the manager (or owner?) approached and couldnt comprehend how someone couldnt like one of their menu items. I dont know what she was expecting? Perhaps me to request a refund because I didnt care for one, but I think the way she handled the situation overall was very poor, particularly her defensiveness and arrogance about the whole situation. Shell probably respond to this and state oh well we tried to provide you an alternative by giving you some French toast, but I didnt want that either. I didnt want anything, actually. My appetite was spoiled at that point. Ill say they in all of this, the waitress was very sweet and I cant fault her for any of this.

Thanksgiving Sunday, we were going to dinner. Unfortunately the menu was brunch style, but everything we ate was very good except for the lukewarm and mediocre coffee. However Our waitress was kind enough to take it back. Besides, she was fantastic with a sense of humor that made us laugh. The second floor was a little noisy for my liking, but otherwise, great outing!

One of the best restaurants in the region at very affordable prices considering the quality of the dishes.

Very good food but the menu is awful and has a lot of mistakes. To review.

I had the most delicious blueberry sauce. It should be made from wild blueberries. It doesn t have an industrial taste. The potato cubes are also delicious, sweeter than anything I ve ever tasted in Ottawa. The food combination here is also very unique. The brunch in Quebec really beats the brunch in Ontario.

The service is still excellent, but the food has become bland. However, it was very tasty before! This is the second time Ive been there and weve tried several dishes, all disappointing.

Had a great lunch but the male server is left to be questioned. When I asked for the bill, he brought the machine and then completely disappeared and never came back. I asked a female server where my server was, she responded by saying that he is probably busy inside. Normally a server completes all transactions with their customers which is considered good client service. As a restaurant owner, I certainly was not impressed with this server nor will I ever return or recommend. I even contacted your restaurant regarding this situation and never received a return call. Very bad service.

I took the portion of tuna tartar, no taste, it tasted practically nothing, plus the portion was minimal, I can understand that inflation affects restaurateurs but $21 for a tiny portion and 6 croutons is not worth it the price.

Very cute and cozy restaurant with tasty food!

Way too loud, they have a sound problem. The sound keeps bouncing around. They had 15 people on second floor and it sounded like 100. Not pleasant and not comfortable to eat their delicious food. Sorry but I spend my money somewhere more comfortable. Merci

Great options and service.

Delicious unpretentious

I loved this restaurant! Our waitress was really nice! All of us who had tartars took half home! It was delicious!

Food was just alright for what it costs. Service not the greatest.

We greatly enjoyed our experience (group of three), as part of a Sunday brunch this summer. Two of us chose the bobbinette (bagel with salmon in partnership with Bobino Bagel) while the 3rd person opted for the Vegetarian version of the Fruit Défendu dish. The dishes were delicious, the service was fast, professional and friendly. On the terrace, there were several wasps, but the staff very kindly offered us a cocktail to keep them away. The atmosphere of the place is very pleasant due to the fact that the street is blocked during the summer period. The Coqlicorne bistro is an excellent alternative to big chains like Cora, Allô mon coco TuttiFrutti and much more. In short, we will definitely return!

Different cuisine. They play with flavors. Friendly atmosphere. We will return with pleasure! A fan for so many years!

Great patio

Wish weather didnt keep us inside. But inside was wonderful. Warm welcome great cocktails delicious food casual but excellent service. Merci beaucoup

The Coqlicorn s enviable reputation continues unabated. Tasty dishes, friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. Its worth the detour!

I ve been here 4-5 times and have been very impressed each time. Their poutine and Sunday morning brunches are delicious. Definitely a place to check out!

Always good!

Everything was perfect! It was delicious, the staff is on point! You have to be patient because its definitely worth it! THANKS ! We will come back!!!

First time at this restaurant. I was impressed with the service and the quality of the food. Right from the start, the usher told us that there would be a delay before the waitress came to see us, which I appreciated! Great service and she was able to help me make a meal choice since I was hesitant. As a starter, the fish acras which were excellent! As a meal, I was tempted by the tuna tartare and Im very happy with it! It was a little spicy/hot. The accompanying fries were very good!

A beautiful brunch with welcoming staff and a chef willing to make exceptions for even the most radical of ketogenic diets!

This place delivers on all fronts. The brunch was delicious, the service impeccable and the atmosphere superb. The team developed a Keto dish for our friend on the job and it was exquisite (according to him). The passion and dedication of the employees is palpable and leads to an extremely pleasant experience.

We were a group and they were very accommodating. Was a great experience.

Very nice discovery! The portions are generous and well prepared!

Some dishes were slightly unbalanced but the experience was really good! One of the cocktails served at our table was very bland and they replaced it with great kindness!

Amazing experience we had here! We came back even next day food is delicious and people are very nice

The dishes are delicious, the terrace superb. The 2nd floor is sometimes very noisy. The service can sometimes be long, but always friendly!

Nothing wrong with the place. Just overly expensive for what it was. 40$ without a beverage other than free water...for a lunch!

Their Poutine and their frida Kalo salad ate the best...im in live their food

Excellent beef tartare!!

As always, the meal was delicious and the service impeccable.

Very poor reception at the beginning. The man told us that he had no room in the restaurant. We could sit outside if we wanted, but who knew how long we could. It was very useful because it was very busy. Instead of welcoming us and giving us the hope of having something to eat, we went to eat at another restaurant, they seated us right away with good service. We still waited two hours for the meal but it wasnt that part that bothered us, it was the fact that there was no service at your restaurant. Too bad when all the other times we went, it was great.

I had heard a lot about this restaurant and we decided to try it. I must admit that we were disappointed. The atmosphere was okay. The service was disappointing. Although our waitress was smiling, she did not take our order, because someone else saw that we had been waiting for a long time, she did not come to check if we wanted anything during the meal, this She wasnt the one who cleared the plates or filled the glasses. The arancini, however, were delicious and the duck was good. The fried chicken burger was dry, but the presentations were beautiful. In short, we will possibly return there to find what everyone is talking to us about.

Brunch is great. Service is very good. Had several meals here and they were all very good.

I am Mexican, I entered this restaurant by chance and was fascinated by its fantastic food and atmosphere, I ate there as many times as I could, its employees were very friendly and did their best to understand my English and Spanish, without a doubt I highly recommend it, fantastic restaurant I highly recommend thanks for its amazing food and attention, merci!!

This place is amazing !! Awesome food, great vibe, great service, prices are reasonable, great terrace... What more do you need?

Great service, relaxed atmosphere, beautiful terrace, generous and delicious portions, nothing to complain about! To try

Best restaurant in Old Hull since forever

First time at Bistro CoqLicorne for brunch, there were 6 of us and we all loved our dishes. Tasty, original and hearty. Friendly and attentive service. A superb discovery!

Great chill atmosphere and the food is succulent, an explosion of flavor, a party for the taste buds

Been here 3 times, never again. At best, its mediocre and overpriced. At worst, the food is greasy (the wienerschnitzel was disgusting) and bland. Service was slow and curt (not rude, but the wait staff made it seem like they were doing us a favour just by being there). Waited more than 20 minutes to place an order to go at the bar the second time I came. The atmosphere felt like the staff didnt want to be there, the music was loud so hard to hear the conversation, and all of us wanted to leave even before we finished eating. There are way better places close by (Troquet, Pizaza, Pêle-Mêle, etc.) and theyre much better value for money.

Delicious, menu with creative and simple notes! To try!

Very good restaurant with efficient and welcoming service. The staff is attentive and attentive! The food is excellent. As a cocktail, I recommend the Caesar, which is worth the detour for fans. As a starter, the naan bread with candied tomatoes, eggplant and feta cheese is delicious To try!

Unpleasant

I recommend this friendly restaurant without hesitation. The food is excellent and the service friendly and professional.

Nice meal. I tried two different menu items and both were good. Not a ton of choice. Good service.

Our first visit was superb. We loved the restaurant. Good menu choice, nice location. Efficient, very courteous and friendly staff.

Good food. Sunday brunch is excellent. Watch out for Poutine Tuesday!

Excellent

Fantastic vibe, amazing food - well definitely be back!

Good warm and friendly restaurant. The food is very good and the portions are still big. Friendly and generous service.

I enjoyed my supper, food was good and service was too. Small cozy place but it is very small and our table was right by the kitchen so we had quite a bit of traffic.

A small place with amazing food/coffe and staff. The sunday brunch options were of amazing quality. The house made boudin was one of the best I had in years and came with perfect toppings. Food

Great Sunday brunch. We made a reservation and glad we did because the place filled up quickly. We ordered the fried chicken and waffle, and the huevos rancheros. The portions were generous and everything was delicious. I would only suggest that they get an actual espresso machine rather than a Nespresso.

Great foods vs quality tasting foods with friendly service

Very nice place in an old house typical of old Hull. We had the Valentines Day menu and it was delicious. Sophisticated dishes, good portions, impeccable service and very resonable prices

Delicious !

Very warm atmosphere which is pleasant and very very very friendly staff. The place seems small but dont be fooled: there is plenty of seating even for multiple groups. Bistro cuisine at very affordable prices and good portions. The dishes are fancy and authentic. I have already been there for dinner but also for lunch and also in summer.

Meal taken in 2018 but it seemed important to me to point out this: I found a hair in my salad, I hope it was a beard hair (you know, the kind that still has the root). I point it out to the waitress (I show her). She leaves with the salad and comes back 30 seconds later. They just took the hair off my salad and brought it back to me and charged as if nothing had happened. I didnt say anything because it was a dinner with my team, but Im still traumatized by it and I never went back.

Warm atmosphere and staff. Reasonable price for the quality of the meals.

Very good experience, best mac and cheese Ive eaten in my life, Im going to drive 2 hours to come back!!!

5 stars, food, service and location. I highly recommend.

Very nice discovery at the end of the week! Attentive and friendly staff. Very good food, good mix of flavors. I will surely return there on my next stay in Gatineau

Amazing food ! Highly recommended!!!

Absolutely delicious, incredible service and atmosphere. Local eatery. We are visiting from Toronto and we loved it!

I recently ate at CoqLicorne restaurant and was extremely pleased with my experience. The service was incredibly fast and efficient, and the food was simply wonderful. I opted for the poutine which was available on the menu, and I have to say the flavors were perfectly balanced and worked very well together. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised to see that my water glass was always refilled without me having to ask. Even though the restaurant was crowded for a Saturday, the hostess and waitress managed to maintain excellent service, which is quite impressive. I highly recommend CoqLicorne restaurant to anyone looking for a place to eat with a pleasant ambiance, exceptional service and delicious food. I look forward to returning to this establishment in the future!

Excellent food and service! 100% recommend

Unique experience. Really great customer service. 5 star place to go!

Excellent! Very good service. The brunch was excellent! I recommend the unicorn croque and the forbidden fruit.

One of the best restaurants in town. Great atmosphere and fiery staff

Excellent food and drinks. And great service.

Positive point: good service and good unconventional nachos, it was pleasant to discover in the mouth. The correct white sangria without shine. Negative point: I didnt like the poutine, the sauce is sweet and cold? There is the Chicken Burger, the chicken is correct but without flavor, very disappointed with the main course, the recipe should be reviewed in my opinion. The coleslaw on the side really isnt my taste either... I didnt like it enough to come back, a little disappointed.

Food was simply bad. I had the haddock, and it was too oily. Fries were oily, burnt and cold.

The duck breast salad is excellent! My kids loved the tacos from the childrens menu. The patio is quaint and comfortable. Kid-friendliness: Small kids menu, but my kids meals were a hit!

Very honestly, it s one of the top 3 best restaurants of my life and God knows I ve tried it! There is taste, flavor, a real impact on the palate, I thought I was in a gourmet restaurant with a good atmosphere! Above all, remember to book! We rush inside , all the waitresses are really adorable, bubbly and smiling. I would also like to give Valérie a big hug, an overflowing joy of life and an incredible chat! A colorful character, who will also detour you to come across, just like this incredible restaurant! My review had to be on par with this restaurant. Thank you again for this moment and a big thank you again to all the teams!!!

Very not welcoming place.

Extremely poor service. Felt like they pay us money to come here. Do not recommend

On service, good food.

I think 5 stars is not enough. We had a Sunday brunch and the lunches are really famous. Revisited and gourmet lunches for the pleasure of eating. Great service too

Had a wonderful evening out with colleagues. The staff were all wonderful. There were plenty of options for drinks. The food was delicious. The outdoor patio was very pleasant.

Delicious, fresh food. Waiter was very patient to help us understand the French menu.

I loved my tartare (the best of my life, and I eat it every time I can), the menu is superb, all the employees are friendly and seem happy to serve us, clean, relaxed decor. I highly recommend

A very nice place with a very good atmosphere, excellent food!

An excellent discovery! Beautiful place, relaxed atmosphere, super friendly and warm staff, and the food...best cod tacos and fries I will return there regularly, and I am told that they have a great brunch - all in all, a great discovery!

Very nice terrace, good microbrewery beer and really good food. The staff was really great!

Left before eating..

Excellent meals!! There are three of us and everything was SUPER good! (Including the brownie! :-). Im not from the area and I will come back with pleasure!!

Great food!

We have eaten at Bistro Coqlicorne twice so far and we really enjoy the food! The first time we were seated inside at the bar and the service was wonderful, 10 out of 5 stars!! Today we were on the terrace and the waitress was quite busy. We didnt want for anything and she was friendly, but we didnt get the attention on our first visit!! We will definitely return there, at the bar or on the terrace!

Excellent restaurant, one of the best! Explosion of flavors well done to the whole team

I got the smoked duck salad and my wife got the poutine. Both were delicious, creative, and fresh.

Amazing brunch! Impeccable service! So friendly staff, great team! Great discovery, we will definitely come back! Thank you for this great experience!

Wonderful food presented artfully, amazing service and a great place to chill.

A must in the old hull fantastic kitchen very courteous staff

Very delicious, fresh tasting food and a nice selection of beers, wine and cocktails. Our server was really lovely although it took a long time after we were done eating to get our bill.

Really perfect delicious! Deserves all the good comments written

Nachos to die for, i am an amateur nacho kinda guy (try ALL nachos every where) but these are to die for, i had the duck meal was also soooo good .. food amazing service could be lil faster I mean meal prep time. Vegetarian options: Many options I was shocked.

Great food and exceptional service.

Excellent, tasty meal and great service considering how busy and understaffed they seemed to be. Reasonable prices, especially for the quality of food. Highly recommended!

Exceptional food, very friendly staff

great food, the staff is very friendly, the atmosphere is a little noisy during peak hours but its not a big deal, I recommend!

If I could give more stars I would!!! Beautiful patio. Food was amazing - service was impeccable, personable and friendly #Chloé is a Gem Food

Nice little place.

We went to dinner last night, we left at closing time. For the first time in a long time we were happy to give more than 15% tip. All the food was super good (I had the salmon tartar and my partner the arancini) Best amaretto sour I have ever had in my life. So I had to drink 3 Excellent crème brûlée Service by people who seem happy to work (this has become rare)

I had a craving for a poutine and the Poutine club des 100 watts really went beyond my expectations. What a fantastic poutine. Highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for a good lunch near Place du Portage.

Quick dinner on a Thursday evening! Lovely welcome, delicious dishes, fast service!

Excellent service, great food and what an atmosphere!!

Atmosphere, service, cuisine, if we lived closer we would be regulars there. 6/5 .

Always excellent with super good service. I love the new terrace.

Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff

The Rooster saved us from the storm today! What a gem in Hull! Dont miss the cod tacos!!!

The delicious Joe Montferrand BBQ d Ribs with Kimchi are highly recommended! A clever creation by Chef Rafael

Friendly service.

Too expensive. + $30 with tip for a salad (no drink) not very big.

Friendly and quick service, wonderful food and a good selection of cocktails/mocktails. Located along a string of open patios that just add to the environment!

The terrace is superb, the atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant and our server was a connoisseur of the menu as well as the cocktails and its wine list. Not only does his appreciation of the dishes show in his explanations but he was able to sell us his dishes that we might not have considered. Thank you for such good service and wonderful food. As mentioned to the waiter, I will definitely come back with my teenagers on Tuesdays for the special poutines!

One of the best places in Old Hull!

Fish and chips excellent...fries too. Were lucky to get a table, its best to book.

The food was alright. Nothing out of the ordinary, but it was good. Portions are on the smaller side, but still satisfying. Service was really slow. A few times we were without drinks for a while before our waitress came to check on us. Its a super cute little place.

The hostesses/waitresses are certainly nice and well-meaning, but customer service is clearly not their strength. The terrace is good, and the food is quite decent. We will not return.

We simply loved our experience. The food was excellent, the service was quick and friendly and the atmosphere on the terrace was very pleasant.

What a pretty bistro, with friendly and dynamic service! What can we say about the food: fresh and delicious! A restaurant not to be missed.

Menu original!

Such a cute place. Had their special, octoberfest sausage with a hot pretzel and small pasta with cheese sauce. Oooh, that cheese sauce is exactly how I make mine. So delicious will be back.

I loved my dish! Everything was well balanced and in perfect harmony.

Great restaurant! We rarely drink cocktails, but we let ourselves be tempted by their rather original menu and we were not disappointed (apples of api and espresso martini with autumn spices). We also tasted the magic of the forests as well as the poutine, it was very good and plentiful. The waitress was very smiling. We had a great time, thank you!

Excellent food, warm friendly service.

Delicious, plentiful, very good atmosphere, warm and top quality price!

unique menu, great staff, and food they care about.

Favorite! Must try restaurant in Hull! Cute little spot tucked in an unassuming house on the main strip of bars and restaurants. Pumpkin spice martini here needs an award - I never get seconds of the same drink, but I couldnt get enough. The poutine and duck dishes were so flavorful, all the pieces were well paired. I couldnt think of one thing that could be done better. The staff was really nice as well.

Good food - excellent german-style poutine and duck breast with risotto. Service was fantastic. The atmosphere was cute. Loved the artwork for sale!

Very good service and meal, except that it is not quiet.

Superb dining experience, the menu is very well adapted to the seasons. The beer is excellent and local options are available. The service is courteous and efficient, the waitresses and waiters know their products. Sometimes it may be better to reserve. The tables are distributed over two floors and there is a terrace outside. The breakfast menu is sublime. Definitely recommended!

One of my favorite restaurants in Gatineau!!!

Excellent brunch, very original, attentive service. Our grandchildren were welcome.

Both meals were excellent. Highly recommend the duck. Friendly staff.

Wonderful French resto in Gatineau with warm, funny servers and a delicious Sunday brunch. The mimosa with Cava and grapefruit juice was a dry starter and helped wash down my messy, cheese toast with a pile of tomato/veg mix and crunchy potatoes.

Friendly and warm atmosphere. Excellent food, fresh produce and fair prices. We recommend!!!

Good food with original menu. Friendly staff.

I loved eating thanks to the excellent service from our waitress. She welcomes people as if we have known each other for a long time. This makes us comfortable and we feel at home. Wheelchair accessibility: The terrace is on the street which is pedestrianized during the summer months.

The food is cooked to perfection! The cooking of the dishes is perfect. The quantity on the plates reflects the prices very well and is even generous for a hungry person. The dishes are original and the blend of flavors is exquisite. The employees are very friendly. The service is impeccable and the atmosphere is refreshing and relaxing. Its worth the detour!!!

Parking: On street parking. Wheelchair accessibility: Cafe patio fairly flat.

Food: everything was excellent!!! Original cuisine. Good service! No air conditioning.

We discovered this nice restaurant-bar quite by chance after a Cirque du Soleil show and we entered without any particular expectations. We were very impressed by the quality of the dishes served there (e.g. duck breast with risotto), by the generous portions as well as by the unbeatable quality/price ratio, especially in these times of inflation. It is good to note that the staff is also very friendly and the service efficient. It was undoubtedly one of the best dinners we have enjoyed in a restaurant in Old Hull where we rarely go. This restaurant alone is worth going to. Strongly recommended!

We absolutely loved the food which was super tasty and beautifully presented. Good and friendly service, we enjoyed the cute backyard

Excellent!!

Goüter des sirènes and the Onion Soup is amazing and delicious but the best is the service. Aldrey is an amazing hostess.

Delicious and good atmosphere and fast services

Excellent food and service Vegetarian options: Great tofu options

My new favorite restaurant! Delicious!

Beautiful dining experience, very good service and my fish taco dish was excellent.

Great place to grab a bit. The food was great and our waitress was awesome giving suggestions on what to get.

Very kind, competent and patient waitress.

Everything is great here. Food and service are wonderful, and the vibe is fun Dietary restrictions: Celiac friendly Food : 5/5 |

Menu has all the classics with a few unique items. The real magic of this place is how they handle the details. The classics are done to perfection. Service is impeccable. They run this restaurant with 1 server and 1 bartender, more efficiently than most restaurants do with 5-10 wait staff. Well done!

Everything tasted fresh and wonderful. Perfect service.

Location and ambience is amazing! However, the quality of food definitely needs some improvement.

Great taste and excellent service! We had lunch here yesterday - the food was fresh and tasted great. Good size portion. We ordered poutine with chicken and a Frida Kahlo - a salad with mixed green, chicken, and corn served in a baked tortilla bowl. The waitress was patient and gave us details of several items on the menu before we ordered. We will return!

Food is absolutely ridiculous delicious! Everything I tried there has been great

We found this place randomly on google maps, and we were so glad! You cannot leave Ottawa without having a meal on the Quebec side! Very tasty and original

Phenomenal food & drinks. Would come back again!

Go, superb cuisine, superb restaurant. Brunch was mental!

Amazing food, super friendly and welcoming staff. Great experience!

First time coming here and the breakfast for Sunday brunch was delicious definitely recommend it and I will come back! Staff super friendly

Beautiful selection of privately imported wines, impeccable service, varied and seasonal menu with very generous portions and honest prices. A must-see in Gatineau!

Busy but so wonderful. Great service and amazing food. We had a large group and everyone (including our vegetarian) was very happy with their selections. A hidden gem for sure! If your an English speaker you will be made to feel welcome so dont hesitate! happy I got to experience this! will be returning often!
