The Eastern Townships are particularly strong on regional cuisine using local artisanal ingredients.

    For a true Québécois treat, stop by this rustic cabin for breakfast or lunch. Founded in 1945, it's a big draw with tourists and locals alike.

  • 2. Auguste

    $$$$

    Auguste placed Sherbrooke on the foodie map when it opened in 2008, and it continues to impress. Local ingredients take pride of place in this minimalist bistro-style restaurant, which features dishes like mushroom risotto or sweet potato ravioli. An absolute must is the pouding chômeur (poor man's pudding), a classic French Canadian dessert in which maple syrup or caramel is poured over cake and served warm. The short—but guaranteed to please—children's menu is free Sunday to Wednesday from 5 to 7 pm.
