You can't come to drummondville and not try the birthplace of poutine. They have a little plaque in the front of the restaurant that even says so (if you believe in that kind of stuff). Inventor of the poutine or not, I thought it was a fun place! Lots of seating, friendly staff, and a stacked menu. I got the regular poutine with the authentic sauce (it tastes a bit sweeter than the normal gravy) and I thought it was good! The cheese was very fresh. It's quirky that they put the cheese at the bottom. A worthwhile tourist stop. read more

Le Roy Jucep is a 5 star stop. If you're driving to Quebec City from Ontario, this is an absolute must stop in Drummondville. Classic poutine done right, fast service, and great quality. I'll be coming back. read more

Poutine's alright, but way too expensive. They feel they can charge more because they claim they invented the poutine, which is a lie. Their arrogance is why I give them 2 stars. Everybody in the centre-du-quebec region ( except Drummondville residents) knows very well that they didn't invent poutine. If they can prove me wrong I will give them a 5 star review. read more

Si tu leurs écrit un message qui leur déplaît sur Facebook, ils te bloquent comme des dictateurs. C'est quand même pas de ma faute si leur poutine est tellement mauvaise que je suis incapable de la finir à chaque fois que je suis allé. Ils n'ont pas inventé la poutine pour commencer et pour y avoir été à plusieurs reprises sur plusieurs années différentes... Je vous confirme que leur poutine est toujours aussi mauvaise. Libre à vous d'aller faire vos tests mais tenez-vous le pour dit que si vous leur dites quelques choses de négatif sur leur poutine, ils vont tout faire en leur pouvoir pour vous empêcher de vous exprimer librement. J'encourage les gens qui l'ont essayé à venir mettre des 1 étoile car c'est ce qu'elle vaut étant donner qu'il est impossible de leur mettre 0 étoile. Pour la personne qui gère les réseaux sociaux chez Jucep, je voudrais te rappeler que tu peux peut-être bloquer les commentaires sur Facebook, partiellement, mais que partout ailleurs sur internet je vais faire mon possible pour que les gens connaissent votre vrai visage. Vous faites pitié! read more

This restaurant is a must stop in Drummondville! The restaurant is not much to look at from outside but who cares when you have the best Poutine Sauce in all of Quebec. Not only is the sauce incredible but they use local cheese curds and the fries are wider cut using local potatoes. Ya just can't beat this Poutine!! Le Roy Jucep deserves 5 Stars ! read more

This review is subjective. I see a lot of people love Le Roy Jucep. It may be in no small part because I've become accustomed to modern poutine, whereas the people of Drummondville like the different taste of the "original." In short, the sauce is much different here than anywhere else. It's thicker, sweeter, tangier, maybe even a bit spicier. The portions are smaller and the prices are higher than most other poutineries. The fries were overdone for my taste without being crispy, though I know that many people like their poutine fries that way. I feel like that sums it up. If you like Roy sauce, go for it. If you have never tried it, why not try it? If you don't like this, you can get more poutine for less money over at Dép Hériot, of the traditional kind. But if you like the unique Roy taste, this is the only place to get it, so it commands a premium. So it goes. Also: Of the five poutines I ate today, this had the least squeaky curds. They barely squak (past tense). For what it's worth. read more

After spending a long weekend in Quebec and trying a variety of poutines all over, I was ready to admit that I simply did not like poutine. Yes, poutine is in fact incredibly indulgent, I could rarely ever finish one by myself, and I generally felt disgusted with myself after eating one. Fortunately, Le Roy Jucep vindicated poutine for me. The gravy was flavorful, the cheese curds were incredibly fresh, and I loved the fact they basically ripped off all the best recipes from other restaurants. Their cole slaw tasted like KFC's and they stole the Orange Julius. Genius! The atmosphere at Le Roy Jucep is essentially your east coast American diner. There's nothing fancy here and as to be expected from a diner, they have a million items for your to choose. They lay claim to creating the first poutine (they even have the history of it) so you'd be doing yourself a disservice by not getting the original. read more

My companion and I went here just as a stopover from Quebec City to Burlington without even knowing about Le Roy's gravy-rich history. Boy were we pleasantly surprised. The interior feels like a classic diner without trying too hard and the food was incredible. I had the 911 Poutine, which admittedly was not spicy enough to evoke fire engines and sirens going off in my head, but was still delicious. My companion got the vegetarian poutine and thoroughly enjoyed the comforting gravy and mushroom flavor profile. The "lait frappé" was definitely a cross between frothed milk and a proper milkshake, so not as thick as i normally like but still really good. My big recommendation is DO NOT get the large poutine plate unless you're sharing between 2-4 people. My companion could not finish his large plate and I even struggled with my "régulier" size. Still delicious and satisfying. Will be back. read more

I was told this is where party/club-goers go to in the after hours for some devilish poutine. Oh and what a poutine menu! I had a bite of their Poutine Galvaude which cheese, chicken, peas, cabbage and gravy poured over a heaping mound of french fries - ohhhhh yeaaaahhhhhh! Yes, apparently the French Canadians have this dish down to a science and it's essentially the cheese and gravy that makes it extra special to the palate. Go to "Jucep" as the locals call it - your waistline will love you for it! read more

Excellent poutine! I ordered the Poutine du Roy, which has hot dog pieces in it. It reminded me of being hung over and childhood all rolled into one... read more

My colleague grew up here and wanted to bring us to the 'original' poutine place, so of course that is what we had. They have a ton of options to add to the standard bowl. I like the sweet sauce, a little different from other thicker gravy I have had. read more

Really good poutine. Thick-cut fries made from local potatoes, the freshest, squeekiest cheese (local also) and delicious thick tasty sauce. The sauce was a little on the sweet side, which my husband wasn't sure about, but I thought it was tasty. One of the best poutines I've ever had. The place was really cool- an old diner with orange booths. This is apparently where poutine was invented. Definitely worth a visit! read more

For a restaurant specializing in pouting it was the worst I've tasted. Canned tasteless gravy and processed cheese curds
