This canadian family approves. Sandwiches are delicious. Of course you cannot have the same poutine that in Canada but their version is delicious and the owners are so nice!

I’m Canadian and really enjoyed this cafe! The poutine is different than what you get in Canada but the owners are extremely friendly and there are many pieces of Canadian artwork and books. Highly recommend!

Place has nice aesthetic, but the "poutine" they have isn't really what most think of when they imagine poutine. I mist say I was little disappointed since I was expecting a Canadian style poutine since the place is literally themed around Canada

I do have a bit of a bias as I own the place but the pies are truly out of this world! Umm......so's the coffee
