La Baraque à Frites — Restaurant in Quebec

Awesome chicken! Amazing service!

We tried this little chicken place in Québec city in March 2025 based on some reviews and it did not disappoint.

Update: May 2025 we went back again and met the owner. She was just as nice as her staff. The meal was even better the 2nd time around. I wish i lived locally, I would absolutely be a regular.

Luis was so attentive and offered such amazing service, I absolutely thought he was the owner. He was genuine and kind...

Everything is homemade and we were told its a woman owned business!

The chicken is juicy and fried to perfection, the pickle sauce is absolutely delicious....if you are a pickle lover, you do not want to miss out.

The bbq sauce was sweet and tasty and we saw a poutine being prepared that made us want to ask the stranger for a bite.

The location has an old school diner counter feel and we are already looking forward to...

The only fry chicken worth mentioning in town.

I tried the chicken and the poutine last night. While the exterior look might stop you, don't. The look is deceiving. This is a small joint with a quick and passionate team that deliver the best fried chicken in Québec city. Moist and very crunchy, texture feel like a panko mix. The sauce is a smoky ultra sweet genre, very close to the one we use to get at Swiss Chalet or some Ontario Mcdo.

The poutine was very good. One of the owner worked last night and suggested marinade onion to complete the experience and you must absolutely add them. The sauce is thinner then the usual poutine sauce but clearly more flavourful. Cheese was use sparingly and the fry could be crisper.

Next time I will try the hamburger but for the moment I am happy that chicken is back in town. I could easily see them serve chicken and Waffle and that would be...

One of the best “poutines” I’ve had in a long long time. The fries were perfectly cooked, lots of cheese curds and their poutine gravy is out of this world good. I especially liked the fact that they put the gravy in a separate container for my takeout order, that way my fries weren’t soggy and the cheese wasn’t all melted into a huge pancake. This restaurant is very small and simple (only a dozen seats available at the counter) but their food is really delicious and of very good quality compared to other places. Their Poutines are all very delicious but their fried chicken is also very good… a must try. The prices are also very reasonable for the quantity and quality offered. The staff was very nice, welcoming, polite and efficient. Highly recommend you try this...
