The food was amazing!!!! However…….the girl at the counter, on the other hand, lacks customer service skills completely. There were 2 of us waiting for food. When my order was ready the cashier called out a number in French and she clearly knew it was my order because the customer in front had ordered a meal and I had ordered one item only. After calling my number she stood there with the most idiotic look on her face and purposely did not make eye contact with me but kept talking to the other French customer. (I’m clearly not French). I had to go up to her and show her my receipt to confirm my order was ready. Does the owner actually condone such poor customer service? Is this how you treat customers/tourists? In a world where reviews are so critical as a form of advertisement and marketing it would be beneficial to have your employees take a crash course on how to treat customers….especially the girl at the cash!!!! Imagine going to a foreign country on vacation and being shunned by locals because you don’t speak their language? Pathetic, right? Come on Quebec, it’s 2024!!!! Do better!!!!

It was very busy. They could have taken the orders quicker. It’s weird they only have one cash. But the food was delicious and worth the wait. Ice cream on the other side was just as good.

Cool place to grab a bite. One side is sweets like ice cream and the other side is savory like burgers, poutine and popcorn chicken. Note, they put fries in your burger. Overall food was good. Great outdoor seating and play ground for kids out back.

Poutine is good, taste right on tongue, not salty. 1 star lower because of the Oreo ice cream is very bad, taste like a cough syrup or even worse.

Really good food, home fries cooked to perfection. Poutine, fresh cheese and not too salty sauce. Very well stocked and tasty club sandwich. Good portion and reasonable price. Service a little slow given the number of customers at all times but with the attention paid to our dishes we can only remain patient. Without forgetting the creamery right in the building for those with a sweet tooth. I recommend the maple butter and strawberry sundae Parking: Ample parking on the sides and front Kid-friendliness: Park at the back, picnic table, extra bench inside. Wheelchair accessibility: Access ramp, automatic door opener.

Ordering was a pain; the small, young cashier attendant clearly doesnt like her job. What is normally a pleasant outing to the snack bar left us with a bitter taste last Tuesday. She looked at us with contempt, spoke stupidly to offer us options. Unfortunately, we do not have good memories of our visit. The meal was very good.....luckily!

This is happiness!!!!! Eat a lobster club with poutine while watching the sunset by the river!!! The poutine was really good! I dont know how they make their fries but they were like canteen potatoes but crispy at the same time. And the lobster club is really delicious! I used the drive-thru and it was super quick. The lady who served me was very friendly and told me that it had only been 2 days since they started making the Lobster Club again and that it was the second time she had made one since yesterday. I was so happy! Its my first time in the area, I would have been disappointed to miss it!!!

I really liked the place, unfortunately its a shame to see how some employees behave. To the young girl who worked Wednesday evening the 15th, hiding in the back when there are customers is not the best way to have good customer service. Its a shame that my experience was affected by this, in my opinion its good manners to serve your customers well.

It took more than 15 minutes to receive my regular little poutine, at 3:00 p.m., Im the only one waiting for my order standing up, in front of a bull-faced cashier...finally its happening, Im super hungry. Big disappointment, dry fried potatoes, little cheese with a sauce that tastes like nothing. It was July 9, 2019, at 2:08:24 p.m. There are #116 and 8976 on my invoice. I was served at checkout #1...and if anyone knows what I ordered, its me...1/2 regular poutine, at $6.20 + taxes = $7.13.. .I left an extra $1.50 tip for the beef face, which I later regretted!!

We stopped for poutine on our way to Levis from New Brunswick. When placing my order I asked for deux petite poutine but mistakenly said hello first. The French speaking cashier did not understand what I was saying so an English speaking cashier helped me. When paying she asked if I would give them a tip. The order took at least 20 minutes. Though the poutine tasted great I am giving three stars for the long wait and the rudeness of the first cashier. In my opinion she should have understood what I was saying.

The girls serving ice cream really served us with arrogance and rudeness without embarrassment (really the opposite of warm service), I have never had such service in an ice cream shop. Its a real shame because the customer service at the canteen was perfect, but with the experience we had at the creamery afterwards, we no longer want to come back...

Local Guide
December 23, 2023

This is the first creamery we visit that is reluctant to offer flavors. It was 1-2 flavors maximum for two people to taste. It was our first time in the area and we were amazed by the quantity of unusual flavors that we had never seen elsewhere in other creameries. We were curious and wanted to taste the other flavors to make our choices in the bowls. But it was just 1 or 2 flavors to taste....Also, we visit creameries every year, all over Quebec, and we love making new discoveries. But I dont think well go back to this place next year. Too bad.... Plus, the girls are cold and not smiling.

An obligatory stop at Rivière-du-Loup. Good snack fries, more than generous portions of chicken in the club sandwiches and the lobster club is more than satisfactory. Possibility of eating on tables outside. Children can play in a small park with games and swings. The creamery located in the same building and owned by them is also a discovery in itself! The taste buds cannot help but appreciate the multiple flavors of sorbets and ice creams offered. Parking: Good luck parking during busy hours and during the tourist season!

My time at Snack Bar DAmours was a delicious experience, mainly thanks to their exceptional poutine. Poutine is an iconic dish of Quebec, and the one served by DAmours was simply delicious. The fries were crispy, the sauce was flavorful and the cheese melted perfectly, creating a perfect harmony of flavors. The added advantage of having a creamery next door is an undeniable asset. After enjoying a delicious poutine, being able to enjoy ice cream or desserts to complete the meal is a real treat. In short, Snack Bar DAmours is a destination of choice if you are looking for an authentic and tasty poutine, and the option of being able to complete your meal with desserts from the creamery next door makes it a perfect stop to satisfy your taste buds. A must-have gastronomic experience for poutine lovers.
