TLDR - Kaffe 1870 sells a good time, so it is my opinion that food quality takes a back seat to…read morehappiness. It helps that Kaffe sells the cheapest dinner on the Riverside Street. Kaffe has live music most evenings. The evening we went they ran a game night at the same time. It was loud. It was fun. We joked around with strangers. Everyone was relaxed. And did I say it was a pub? Oh draft beer was so delicious! Good times for everyone. The food at Kaffe is 3.5 stars at best. My beef stew was loaded with beef brisket chunks and vegetable bits. It was bold, delicious, down to earth, country styled. My boyfriend described his pasta as rich and hearty. Portions of both entrees were not generous but they were satisfying nevertheless. They surely weren't fancy. Most dinner offereings were priced at $18. Compared to most other restaurants charging over $20, Kaffe had the cheapest dinner that filled you up. Many patrons were french speaking. Yet the server was accomodating to us English speakers. I got a distinct impression that some people were regulars. If I was correct, this pub was the locals' social hub. How cool is that?

Rating is a Big Zero. We came in around 8:30 pm. I forgot to order an item and was told that the…read morekitchen was closed and that the restaurant closes at 9 pm. I said that we wouldn't have come in to eat if we knew that they were closing at 9 pm. I mentioned this to our server and said that we are holding her up from her Friday night activities. She said yea ,it's Friday night and looked irked We were still eating 15 minutes after closing. The cook came out and said that this was his 14th hour working and were told to get take out boxes and leave immediately.The meal cost over $120. It was with Family. I've never ever been told to leave a restaurant eating after closing. Called the next day , and spoke with the Manager. He stuck up for his Staff and started yelling through the phone. He said something wrong that he accused us of. He said his server was 18 and shouldn't have been told how unhappy we were. So, unprofessional! Do not go there. The food was so so for the price.

Completely agree with previous review. They made the drinks incorrectly, and served them in tiny…read moreglasses. The food took forever, so after 45 minutes, the waitress brought over two bowls of "coleslaw" to placate us. When the food finally arrived, over half the orders were wrong in one way or another. The food that was supposed to be hot was nowhere near so. The Poutine was soggy. The fried chicken was burnt black, but we decided to peel the skin off (it SHOULD have been the best part). The meat was dry and had no flavour whatsoever. This place makes Swiss Chalet seem like a 3 Michelin Star establishment. I would steer clear.

(We came to Quebec partially to drink in the culture and speak French, but okay....) Flat beer... I did not finish it (rare event) White wine was much too sweet. Horrible ribs Horrible ribs at a smoke house? Yea Sent back the first order because although the plate was hot the meat was cold inside. Were they microwaved? They came back luke warm 5 minutes later. (This time more moist, like they were boiled a bit, then re-sauced.) There was way too much sauce... And the sauce was aspiring-to be Costco-type-quality... But did not come close, (and I do not believe Costco has good quality.) I eat out a lot. This was unusually bad. So bad that we did not finish even 1/4 of the ribs. Not sure how a smoke house with horrible BBQ is supposed to make it.

My only complaint is the food wasn't hit when delivered. Our server was very kind but covering many tables on her own. Thai definitely slowed down her response rate. The restaurant itself was clean and not overly crowded. Definitely plenty of seating. Most BBQ places are a bit darker but in general not bad. As the receipt shows excellent value as two of us shared the little cowboy. Based on the taste of the food and the quality I will be back for sure.

I will definitely be giving them another try in the near future.

I really enjoyed the ranch dips As well as the barbeque sauces that were on the table. The kids were not a huge fan of the fries because they were seasoned with a spice. We also ordered a basket of fried pickles and they were OK. I don't eat meat so I can't speak on the type of food that they are known for, but the hubby thought it was excellent and the vegetarian options were good.

Something I really liked is the fries witch are fried in beef grease . Obviously you are not getting anything fancy but I have seen many restaurants that have a simple menu yet it is beautifully executed. In this case not so much your hamburger bun is your average soggy white bread mcdonalds bun they don't have gourmet sauces like hollandaise for the steak the veggetebals are definetly better then cheap restaurants like Tim Hortons,mcdonalds,pizza pizza , burger king , tutti frutti, Starbucks etc but although the veggetebals are good quality, the mix and match of them Is simply not there. The bottom line is : this restaurant is your average old school fast food the chefs just know simple recipes and they do them the way they have always been . They don't know how to cook and create unique tastes . They use the frier way too often for the onion rings for the jalapeno poppers,for the cheesticks for the deep fried Oreos or deep fried maple cookies witch btw are 5$ for 4 deep fried cookies . Realistically, they don't know how to create a balanced combo in taste ,texture and temperature. If you eat there too often you will end up as fat as the owners belive it ! One thing I will say is better then most places is the quality of the meat .all in all good food but don't go too often. If you are the owner and you are reading this i guarantee that you can improve your food easily even if it is a simple menu
