I walked in, completely uncertain if I would be able to get a vegetarian poutine. But the host was gracious enough to arrange one for me. And, it was delicious! The best poutine I’ve ever had!

Pointed to HopEra by our B&B host. We had the California pizza which we have seen on menus before but had never tried. This version was reallly good; the balsamic drizzle added a bit of zing which we enjoyed. It was Saturday night and quite busy but service was quite good in spite of the crowd.

The place was pretty busy, however the service was good enough. The pizzas are awesome and the burger Big Joe was delicious. I drank an orange stout, it was an excellent beer. I highly recommend this restaurant which I'm fond of going there.

We came just before the kitchen was supposed to close by few minutes and Jeremy was kind enough to give us all the time to order whatever we wanted and got us to try different beers they brewed. Loved the the chilli flavoured beer. Food was very good and portions were sufficient. Vibes are warm and cozy. We loved the experience!

We ordered the cheese stick as appetizers and were super impressed with what came out. Delicious bite size cheesy and bacony goodness omg. The pizza was delicious with the option to use their hot sauce armoire. The carbonara was different yet good.

Although there were several people serving, only one employee (super nice though) seemed to do everything and therefore had difficulty (long waiting times, people at the door waiting without anyone arriving and the phone was ringing). The place also didnt have many customers at that time. Two beers never arrived and we had to cancel them as we finished eating. For the food, the pizzas were undercooked and very ordinary (I dont remember such a bad experience for a place that has such a nice oven), but the hamburger was very good (but arrived with onions when requested without onion). There were two cooks and they really didnt seem overwhelmed. The waitress would have told them the pizza didnt look cooked, and they would have said they were ok (clearly not from our point of view). For the beer, nothing to complain about, super good. We thought we would like the place a lot, but for the experience at this price, we wouldnt go back.

Very good place. Only tasted the pizza which was very good and which seems to be their specialty for food. Cooked in a stone oven over a wood fire. The beer was okay, but only a kind whose name escapes me. I recommend and will definitely return.

A must-see microbrewery in Jonquière. There are often special (periodic) beers. As the name of the brewery indicates, it favors hoppy beers. It is also one of the very good restaurants located in downtown Jonquière. Every week there is a gourmet menu offered on the blackboard.

Unable to get served the one time weve tried this restaurant. One guest in our party has mobility issues and we were unable to get accommodated and were told its our problem. Before we even left the staff was pushing us out - the staff clearly has learning to do.

December 22, 2023

A wait of almost 40 minutes for a very simple dish. A waitress who ignores her customer and who asks questions in a hurry (its up to you) for forms sake without listening to the customers response which tells her no. An error in the ordered dish. And then for a second time I am completely disappointed that we are reinventing basic classics... Doritos which literally flood a mac and cheeze... in their defense it is listed on their menu. I agree that I didnt think it necessary to read the full description of such a simple dish. Doritos....seriously? Bad experience all round.

Ah, Hopera! If there is a rival on rue Saint-Dominique for Voie Maltée, it is this micro-brewery. Its atmosphere, which has not changed for ten years, remains charming and warm, no complaints about that. The decor is also much more pleasant at the end of the dinner hour, therefore between 1 and 2 p.m., when the customers become rarer. When it comes to beer, on the other hand, it hurts. Over the last 10 years, I have had the chance to travel through many regions of Quebec, always trying local IPAs along the way. If Hoperas old classic IPA was easily in the sure value category, the current one, unfortunately, did not reflect the image of the establishment. Pointed by a simple bitterness and a taste of hops tolerable only when eating, it is not recommended... even less when the eclectic at 6.5%, despite the more present taste of alcohol in the mouth - what a surprise - tastes more nuanced and complete. If IPAs are your beers of choice, be sure to ask for tasters, mistake on my part. If the rating is 4 stars overall, it is purely because of this beer unworthy of the reputation of the establishment. Regarding the pizzas attached in photo format, nothing to complain about, except for a suggestion whose availability was confirmed by the server: if you choose the truck-stop, with its BBQ sauce and pulled pork, you you will easily notice the sweetness that emerges after the good taste of the dough cooked in a bread oven. To counterbalance this, order, and this is no joke, ARUGULA! Its slightly bitter, even peppery taste gracefully accompanies the sweetness of the pork, creating a winning combination. To confirm this combination, request to try, then you just have to order. Special mention for the waiter who, despite a bad description of the IPA of the moment and forgetting to serve the beers before the pizzas, was like the Saguenéens and Saint-Jeannois: friendly and easy to approach.

The food was okay but if you compare it with other brewpub you will feel unsatisfied. The waiting time was so long like one hour for one pizza, which make no sense on the earth. If the restaurant is too busy to keep customers waiting then owner should consider if you are understaffed or your kitchen is out of capacity. I also understand that the brewpub always has loud music and people talking around, but this restaurant has uncomfortable environments.
