Le Tap Room Bistro - A Bistro Steeped in History

Beneath its century-old beams and overlooking the deep waters of Lake Massawippi, Le Tap Room is a place to gather and savor the moment. The warmth comes not only from the fireplace, but also from shared laughter and dishes inspired by Québec’s terroir. With panoramic views of rolling hills and wild forests, our Michelin-recommended bistro celebrates conviviality and local flavors. Our cuisine brings together the land, the seasons, passionate producers, and the guests gathered around the table.

By the Fire, By the Lake, Always Together

The menu evolves with the rhythm of the harvest and the day’s arrivals, featuring lake-fresh fish, grilled meats, seasonal vegetables, and farmhouse cheeses. Each dish, simple in spirit yet crafted with precision and finesse, highlights the authenticity of flavor and the excellence of local craftsmanship. Rooted in Québec’s terroir, our cuisine is designed to be shared and savored — by the fire, by the lake, or gathered around the table with friends.
