Quebec is falling for British food
“MacTaverne's scotch egg is worth the trip on its own.”
For her May 2026 feature on Quebec's growing appetite for British cooking, food critic Ève Dumas put us in good company. The scotch egg, the fish and chips, and the maple sticky toffee each got their portrait, next to Mike's words on pub food that's alive and seasonal.

One of seven spots for snow crab season
“This address has everything to draw people all the way from Québec City.”
Le Journal de Montréal named us one of seven addresses across Québec, in April 2026. Half country inn with seven rooms, half English-accented pub, the ideal stop after a hike, for a pint and a meal.
