Solid poutine, as the Wall Street Journal article had suggested. The fries are totally all that, and it's no surprise, because Chez Nancy has a lot of fry variations besides poutine. The sauce, right as WSJ said, is a little thin - and not necessarily the consistency, but I noticed the taste was less rich than other sauces. Curds were not that squeaky and on the small side - the single biggest reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5.
Now, for the non-poutine metrics: This is a very local place. Locals were already at the bar at 11 AM on Sunday, and church hadn't yet let out (I don't think). They are very proud of the WSJ article, having it framed on the wall and even translating it into French. It's a kitchenette, dimly lit, that does the job for a local diner/cheap restaurant. I wouldn't come back 10 km out of my way for this again, but if your route does go through here, it's a perfectly fine stop despite its unassuming appearances. It's right across from the church on the eastbound side of Route 269. The only reason it's hard to miss is that street numbers are so easy to find. read more
