Popped in for a quick lunch on a Sunday mid-afternoon. Friendly staff indicated that it was a busy day, but there was one else in the place when I was there. Ordered 2 all-dressed "steamies". They were lukewarm at best. Somewhat disappointed. Will give them another chance... read more

Really solid poutine! I came during lunch time as I work nearby, and got a large poutine. - Fries: they are super potatoey-tasting which was great! A bit too soft for my liking, but there were crispy bits on the edges which was delicious. - Gravy: on the lighter side, but there was enough of it and it was hearty. I prefer my gravy super thick and rich-tasting, but that's just personal preference! - Curds: there were actually curds integrated throughout the poutine, so with each bite you can get some which was great. I actually thought there were enough curds which is rare for poutine! I am definitely coming back to get my poutine fix! So glad this place is within walking distance to work. read more

La Patate Dorée - a bowl of food - Burgers Near Me - Gatineau, Quebec

See all

Decent place to get a poutine to go on the island, the burger with all the works is a good time, very down to earth. The times I have gone quality of the fries was variable, not always piping hot enough to melt the cheese. The fries themselves are obviously fresh cut and are quite good, going to try them as is with vinegar next! read more

La Patate Dorée - Medium Poutine - Burgers Near Me - Gatineau, Quebec

Service was slow (1/2 hour to get 2 fries with a hotdog and poutine). Food was cold. One employee handling food, money, phone and equipment. Before COVID, this was my go to place for fries and pogos. First time back since and very disappointed. Sorry to see this. Won't be back. read more

Exactly what we were looking for! AUTHENTIC poutine. Great little neighbourhood spot with picnic tables to the side. No frills, no fuss. Just a huge heap of yummy fries, squeaky cheese curds and dark gravy. You'll need a nap after this one! read more

Excellent. Hamburger was made from fresh ground beef. Poutine is authentic as poutine can be. 2 minutes from the museums. Just delicious.

Definitely a hidden gem, on Eddy street in downtown Hull. This little burger joint is staffed by ladies with soup-nazi personalities. Despite that, it's a busy place in the day with public servants, taxi drivers, students and locals lining up for tasty steamies and poutine. Their family sized poutine may be the best deal in the NCR. If you are on a quest to find the best poutine in the Capital Region, you need to give them an opportunity to win you over. I am a sucker for their all-dressed (with coleslaw) hotdogs. read more

La Patate Dorée - Family sized poutine. - Burgers Near Me - Gatineau, Quebec

I've honestly never had "real" poutine. But if this is it, I'm not sure I want anything else. I walked there in the rain, but there's no seating inside. So after buying my moyen poutine (roughly $6) I walked back (in the rain) and here's my report from after that 10-15 walk: * The curds were still there (not fully formed, but lumpy) & super creamy, too. * The fries were excellent. Not soggy * The gravy was flavorful & not too salty Excellent all around! read more

A lot of people assume that Poutine is easy, I mean you put some fries and cheese curds in a container and pour gravy on it, I mean how hard can it be? The answer is that it is not that simple and there is no other fast food item that I can think of where the quality of each ingredient can have such a large effect on the whole experience and Patate Dorée have perfected the 3 pillars of the classic Québecois Poutine. First pillar, the fries. These are very subjective, but you don't want them too soft. Doree's fries are perfectly crispy, but not too hard, and also a nice golden brown colour, cooked enough to have flavor but not over and under-cooked, perfect poutine-fries. It seems as though the cooking oil they use is really good, as they are really flavourful. Second pillar, the curds. As long as you are using proper curds this is probably the least fickle ingredient. Preferably you use smaller, firmer curds so that they don't melt when you pour the hot gravy on, you really want them to keep their shape when eating, and Doree's are perfect for this as even at the bottom of the container they were still intact. which is what you want to see. Third Pillar, the gravy. This is really a make or break ingredient. Too think and you end up with a hardened pile of goop, while too runny will produce something akin to French fry soup, there is also an aspect of qualtity too, you want enough to cover the ingredients, but not so much as to smother everything. Doree have gotten the consistency down perfect. It's a nice and liquid without being too runny, and they put the perfect amount on. There is also a question of flavor, you want gravy that is more than just hot brown liquid, you want a good beefy taste to it with a bit of spices but without overwhelming, Doree's strikes a perfect balance. I also had a pogo, which was nice and tasty but it's hard to mess up a pogo. The ladies who run Doree may seem a bit gruff, but they are really nice and really quick so there is no complaint there. If you are looking for a classic poutine (not something fancy with extra ingredients), Doree has the best one in the NCR (National Capital Region for the non-government types. read more

Their classic poutine is amazing. The two of us ordered a family-sized poutine that filled a large take-out box for $12 and there's no tax. We ate until we were full and there was still 1/3 left. 5 hours later we finished the leftovers and guess what? The poutine still tasted great! read more

La Patate Dorée - Family size poutine - Burgers Near Me - Gatineau, Quebec

Not the cleanest place on earth. Actually, how the workers handled the food was quite disgusting... BUT it was absolutely delicious. As long as you're not easily grossed out, definitely try a burger and poutine from here. read more

Fries were nice and crispy. Gravy was delish. If only the cheese was squeaky. Loved the fact that it was just a small local take out shop with picnic tables set up outside. Staff were great too. Didn't sample anything else this time but will definitely return next time we're in town. read more

Went today and the fries had been re-fried at least 3 times, they were skinny like McDonald's fries. Was expecting more of a chip truck fry. Won't be back. Better ones in Gatineau. read more

Well this was a unique experience in my life. All I know is that I was verbally assaulted and left without eating the food I paid for. Not really sure what happened there, I might have walked into someone else's bad day or bad life. read more

OK. Here's a gem in the rough. Well Kind of. It's been here for ages. I first started coming here as a kid in the early 80's and it had been around quite a while already. Think "la pataterie hulloise". OK there isn't much place to sit, but most people here are regulars from the government offices around and eat on the go. A few tables outside and a counter to eat standing inside but that is besides the point. Looking for a good poutine and hot dog?? THIS place has to be on your list! read more

Good food! They make the classic poutine, hot dogs and burgers. You can sit outside to eat but there aren't any tables inside for the winter. read more

We were looking for some great poutine since we were in Gatineau for the day. I chose this place based almost solely on Tom R's review (Seriously just read it, then go there - seriously stop reading this - go get some poutine). Best Poutine I have ever had. The ladies behind the counter were charming. I loved it! read more
