Best lobster rolls in Quebec, I live 5 hours from this place and I come back every year. Try their fried clams and lobster poutine also. Come early as there is always a long line and at least an hour wait, but sooo worth it!

The line up is insane!! That’s how good the place is! They managed to finish the line up pretty fast and professionally. I had the lobster poutine with the regular LaFleur hot dog. Got to watch the sunset at the same time!

The best lobster roll I had during my stay in region.

Delicious lobster rolls and fries. We stopped on our way to Gaspesie. They only open 4 days a week now. From Thursday to Sunday due to lack of employees. We came around 1pm and 30mins later the lobsters were sold out! So come early to avoid disappointment. All in all great food and nice stop on the journey.
