We were hungry after partaking in some outdoor yoga on the Que side! This place had great ratings apparently but I held off on looking it up, wanted it to be a surprise. A bit of a hole in the wall.. perfect. It wasn't too busy when we arrived but it sure got packed, quickly! Not a lot of space in there, only a few seats. The menu was easy to read, staff were curt and to the point. I grabbed a hotdog, loaded, to go and ordered a medium poutine, traditional of course. Made fresh to order, took a bit for the food to come out. Really good. I thought the cheese would have more squeak but no complaints on food. Fries were home cut, rich gravy, good ratio of all combined. The steamed hot dog later, hit the spot. Topped with coleslaw and mustard. Different! I'd go back if it wasn't lined up at the door (which happens) and would recommend for solid poutine/fries/dog.
During my trip to Ottawa/Gatineau back in October, I had La Pataterie Hulloise on my list for the longest time! And I am glad I waited for it! Known for their classic poutine and their Italian poutine, the staff always ensures the humble but well executed flavours for every order! The fresh cheese curds work well with the piping hot homemade gravy on top of the fresh cut fried that are fried to order! The Italian Poutine is a nice change from the classic with the hearty meat marinara sauce being a nice surprise to pair well with the cheese curds. Overall, it is worth the visit if you are ever in the Ottawa Gatineau region!
Winter is the perfect time to check out their poutine! I have to agree with all the reviews on yelp about this place, the poutine was stunning. You don't even need to go too far from Ottawa to get this poutine. They cut their potatoes in house to ensure that the fries are as fresh as possible. The gravy is not overly thick or salty and paired really well with the slightly sweet fries. And of course, the St. Albert's curds, best combination ever for a classic poutine. They also serve hotdogs, burgers, and sandwiches if you want to make it a meal. I believe their current special is 2 hotdogs, 1 small fries, 1 drink for $8.
It was Friday night at about 9:30 and we weren't sure what to eat for dinner... But since we were just stepping into Gatineau, Quebec, I figured... why not search up a poutine place! We strolled in at just approximately 9:45PM, fingers crossed that they'd still take orders since they close at 10PM. Luckily we got there in time, placed an order for a regular classic Poutine, and it was fresh fresh fresh! I wish the gravy would have been hotter to melt the cheese curds, but the fries had good crisp, and the cheese curds were chewy. We also saw they had hot dogs for just over $2, so we got one as well, do note that they are a quite tiny! 2 bites and they're fully devoured. Quick service, friendly staff, great packaging. Would definitely come back again!
BF: "Family sized poutine, please" Cashier: "It feeds 4-5" BF: "Yes, we're 4" We're 2. A 1'x1' styrofoam container is filled with poutine. The guy will then place it down to make more fries. For the next order? Nope. Another layer of fries is piled onto your already full container of poutine. The container's placed down once again to make more fries. You guessed it. Still for your order. The second layer of poutine is actually more than what was initially in the container. Get this order to go and it'll be packed in a plastic bag. The container doesn't actually close, it just gets tied together in the plastic bag. So, yes. A family sized poutine does very accurately feed 4-5. This was the biggest emotional roller coaster of a poutine ever - the fear, the excitement, the conflicting feelings of not being able to eat any more while shoveling another spoonful into your mouth because it's good. Definitely going back.
I came on a Sunday afternoon to fuel up before skating, and the place was packed! There was almost no parking, and the line was long (waited probably 10-15 minutes). Definitely a sign that they're popular! I got the regular poutine, medium size; this is perfect to share between two reasonably hungry people. If you're starving, a large between two people would be better. You can see the fries are freshly cut, and they use canola oil (no trans fats!) There's some seating, and the washroom was pretty clean. The fries themselves were really potato-ey, and mostly somewhat soft, although some were crispy, so a bit of poutine had soft and crispy fries. The gravy was thick, not too salty, and went really well with the fries. There was enough curds, although they weren't squeaky. Definitely hit the spot for a poutine craving! They also have lots of sides and hamburgers as well.

Had a quick stopover for some classic poutine. Crispy fresh fries, pile of cheese, and hot gravy. They're clearly popular and everything is churned out at a high volume. We had a medium to share. Service was friendly and our food was ready in just a few minutes. There are a few bar level stools and chairs to sit on. There is also a small parking lot for about 5-6 cars. read more

Probably one of the better poutines I've had and I've gone around Quebec trying out many places. The poutine itself was amazing with the proper squeaky cheese and potatoes. We also tried the burger, it was not bad (granted this is a poutine place). Staff is quick with the order and it came out hot and fresh. It was a snowy day and we ate in the car, food had to be eaten right away to enjoy it. There's not much seating inside and it gets pretty tight when busy. I would come by again and try other things on their menu if I'm ever around the area. read more

I was in town with my family and have been craving poutine. This place is a small gem. They serve a good amount of everything. The fries were cooked fresh and had the perfect crisp to them. I also like how their gravy wasn't salty compared to other ones I've tried. The worker was friendly and patient. Overall, cravings were highly satisfied. read more

Choix très varié de sauces. Le comfort food par excellence. Le service est excellent et qualité-prix imbattables. Au coeur du centre-ville très facile d'accès (deux stationnements). Ambiance parfaite pour redonner de l'énergie lors d'une journée de pluie. read more

Literally the best poutine I've ever had in the most unassuming location. Next time I will definitely get the beef gravy but I lovvvvved the chicken gravy. It's great that there are options and if I ate carbs on a regular basis and lived in the area I would be there ALL THE TIME. read more

I actually have never heard about this place before, but my friends kept raving about how there's a famous poutine place around. I was in Quebec, so I really couldn't resist. I love cheese. When I first saw this place I thought it was kind of funny cause it's literally a little convenience store sized place. The store itself is about half kitchen and half sitting area so don't expect a giant cafeteria. When we ordered, the person that took our order actually told us to get the "Family sized" portion because there was 4 of us getting poutine. We agreed cause it ended up to be about 3.50 so that was a big win. When the poutine actually got here, holy crap I was shocked. I don't think you could have even closed the lid on the container. It was packed FULL off potatoes cheese and gravy. We split it up with the plates they gave us and dug in. The cheese curds are the first thing I noticed. They were super squeaky and delicious. Damn you frenchies and your good cheese. Second was the french fries. Personally I really liked them. They weren't really fries, but rather potatoes. The thing that made them different was the softness I guess. They weren't fried to the point of crispyness, but everything was nice and soft. Almost like homefries (the good kind, not the cut up square dice shaped kind). I think the fries really paired well with everything else and matched well. I really don't like when the fries act like daggers in poutine. This is definitely a hidden gem, and people that know definitely aren't shy about letting everyone know how good it is. Do yourself a favour and give this place a try. read more
I am always on the hunt for good poutine and tried this place out after googling for 'the best poutine in Gatineau'. I wasn't disappointed. I ordered a medium poutine with added roast pork pieces, yummy! The first thing I noticed is that when preparing the poutine, they add curds half-way through the fries, than add more fries, top withies curds and then the delicious gravy. The result is that the curds halfway down have started to melt when you reach them and that is wonderful, the stringy, stretchy gooey-mess that is so true to Quenec poutine. The fries are ever-so-slightly sweet, which may sound weird but trust me, combined with the hot salty gravy and springy-curds they make an awesome taste explosion in your mouth. Great poutine! read more

You know a place is good when there is a line no matter what time of the day. After waiting in line for 20 minutes I realized this place only takes cash (BRING CASH) so we had to leave but came back later that day and the line was still just as long as the first time. It's worth the wait. The portions are huge and the Poutine the best I've had so far. This will be one of my first stops when I go back to Ottawa. read more

My friends and I stopped in quickly for a poutine on the way back to Toronto, and instantly after taking the first bite I realized how fresh and squeaky the curds were!! I've never had such squeaky curds! The fries were perfectly crispy and gravy was rich! Definitely going to come back! read more

I placed an order at La Pataterie Hulloise using UberEats. When I received my order, 4 out of 7 items in my order were missing. What was supposed to be 2 corn dogs, 1 BLT sandwich and fried pickles ended up being a series of totally random items that made no sense whatsoever and seemed like a really bad prank. I received 5 hot dogs, which I never ordered, 3 of which had only cheese in them, and 2 with literally nothing inside (no condiments of any sort, just a wiener and a bun). I received a "sandwich", if it could seriously be called this way, which consisted of 2 toasted slices of bread with 2 slices of tomato and lettuce in the middle (nothing else). And the last random item was a hamburger with no condiment either, just a patty and a bun, nothing else. When I called La Pataterie Hulloise to complain about half the items missing in my order, the girl that picked up the phone told me to handle the matter directly with UberEats, they would be the ones to resolve it with me. This made absolutely no sense at all, the order was placed in a paper bag, which was stapled closed, the Uber driver couldn't have touched the inside of the order. On top of that, the receipt, which contained a list of all the items I ordered, was stapled to the bag and there was no mistake on the receipt. The fault was entirely on La Pataterie Hulloise. From this point, the situation went completely out of hand. The employee over the phone started taking a condescending attitude with me, and literally said "I'd like to help you, but other than trying to do telepathy, I can't do much...", I answered her by saying it was clearly their mistake and it was to them to try to resolve it and not UberEats. She then proceeded to pretend the line was busy by imitating the sound of a busy signal with her voice, then hung up on me. I called a second time, asking her if she seriously pretended the line was suddenly busy by doing the sound with her voice, and she then decided to pretend that this was the very first time she talked to me and had no idea who I was. When I confronted her about it, she then said that I must have previously been talking with her twin sister and that must be the source of the confusion. Being fed up with her, I then asked to speak with a supervisor, she said there was none at the moment, so I asked to speak with the owner, and of course she said he wasn't there either, to call back tomorrow morning. From then, things just escalated further and she hung up on me again. So I called a third time, this time a guy picked up the phone. I asked to speak with a supervisor or the owner again, he said there wasn't one available at the moment. He then proceeded to make fun of me further, saying "So your BLT didn't have bacon in it? What are you complaining about? You had lettuce and tomato. And mayonnaise. You got the most important stuff in there." I was clearly hearing the other employees laughing in the back as he was telling me this. I know it may seem hard to believe, but this story is true... That did just happen to me on this Saturday night. I'm still flabbergasted to be quite honest. What kind of completely unprofessional establishment is La Pataterie Hulloise? The order I received didn't even seem like a real order. It didn't seem like a honest mistake of sending one order the items of another order. It literally feels like the employees of the place were bored tonight and decided to play a dumb prank on a customer. The owner of this place is as responsible for this debacle as their employees are, after all, they are the one that left the employees responsible for their business while they're not there. I had to throw the entire order, even though some items were correct, in fears of eating the cook's spit (or another type of bodily fluid). I always liked La Pataterie Hulloise, I thought their poutine was excellent, but needless to say, after this horrible experience, I'm never setting foot in this pitiful establishment ever again. I'm not interested in spending 40$ to be mocked by dumb kids bored on the job. That's just sad. You have to wonder how that place stayed open for so long when they literally bully your customers and mock them. read more

Came here for lunch with some coworkers. Humble little spot with great poutine! Cheese was squeaky, gravy was tasty and fries thick. I personally prefer crispier fries but this was still a good meal! I was surprised the poutine was served in a more vertical cup, but I guess that's to cater for the customers that come in and go. read more

It's just a small burger shack with hot dogs and fries/poutine. The portions are fairly large, and the prices are reasonable. It's about a million degrees inside the restaurant in the summertime - thank goodness for the picnic benches outside! read more
