The Mess Hall Poutinerie

You gotta try the New Donair poutine and the Loaded Potato poutine. The meat on the donair poutine was so good it had me almost begging for them to teach me how to make it. The loaded potato poutine take an already amazing poutine and tops it with your fvourite baked potato toppings, get the pulled pork added to it to really make it exceptional ($). The staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and make great suggestions. The portions are huge and you will not leave hungry. It was nice to see the staff coming out of the back of the restaurant to check on the customers and make sure they were happy. The minimizing of waste is also something to be proud of. If you haven’t already checked out this Georgetown staple after seeing them on «You gotta eat here» you should go right now! Keep it up guys!

This is honestly some of the greatest poutine I’ve ever had. Had the Yankee 2.0. Great service and amazing food.

I absolute LOVED this place. The portion sizes are great and the toppings were enough for the poutine. It was delicious. My only suggestion is to ask for no or little salt on the fries. Mines were a little too salty but that would be my only critique. I can’t wait to go back and try something different. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. It may be pricy for some but it’s a large portion and totally worth it!

Didn’t like the weird gravy… and there isn’t any remotely healthy stuff to choose from. The appetizers ate good but this just wasn’t real poutine to me. The staff and restaurant are nice but I don’t think I will eat there again. .maybe food for a younger crowd.

Best poutine ive ever tried. Hands down!!!
Good customer service as well. Will def. recommend to other people

So far the best poutine placed in Ontario I have ever tried with lots of varieties. A little disappointed with the portion served in the to go large box… We ordered Yankee which has okay pieces chicken breast with Buffalo wing sauce. For a poutine, I didn’t taste or see much of cheese curds and little blue cheese on top… Gravy portion was decent consider it was a little saltier than other sauce I tried. (Picture of our order posted) Overall, it was a good poutine place in georgetown.
The dining area is unique. I would certainly being friends next time they come visit georgetown.

Read the reviews and with friends in town, decided to make a visit (first time). Ordered a veggie poutine and a pulled pork poutine.
The Good: Customer friendliess, fries freIymade fresh,
The Bad: Not enough poutine on the pulled pork poutine and cheese curds on both.
Doubt I’ll visit again. They need to learn from Smoke’s.

Great place! Highly recommend. The absolute BEST onion rings I’ve ever had — delicious crispy batter. You can bite the onion ring without having a big slimy onion pull out. Fresh, delicious ingredients to make the burger and toppings. I love that it’s a no waste place! Super friendly and welcoming service. It’s just across the street from the park so bring a blanket and have a picnic. We’ll definitely be back on a regular basis!

My go-​to for my cheat day. Love the loaded potato poutine. I can never finish it though. The portion is huge. Can’t wait to try their burgers. The owners are a lovely friendly couple who always chat with me when I come in.

Its always great hearing about a place that is totally off my food radar in my area. I was told about this great little place in Georgetown called the «Mess Hall Poutinerie. If there is one thing that I love as much as a great burger… its a great poutine! In the last couple of years Poutinerie’s have been opening up and serving crazy combinations of toppings (pulled pork, bacon, sour cream, chicken) on top of the traditional french fries, cheese curds and gravy. Some of these Poutineries know the basics and blend new flavors well and some just get it all wrong.
The Mess Hall Poutinerie is one of those great places that you just want to tell everyone about. Fresh cut fries, homemade gravy, Quebec cheese curds. the basics… check! Now the craziness begins… My first visit here I tried the most popular poutine on the menu …“The Dirty Bird» ($ 11.50) Fried chicken, Bacon, Crispy Onion and deep fried pickles. The crispy bits of chicken and bacon provided a savory flavor along with the snap of the crispy onions made this poutine… Awesome…I didn’t eat the pickles, but my wife sure loved it! On Saturdays the feature «The Cure» All Day Breakfast Poutine. One egg over easy, house-​made maple bacon, fresh hollandaise sauce, roasted tomato & crispy onion on a signature classic poutine. This is for your recovery from being hungover from Friday. The menu and rotating selection of poutine’s are amazing. BTW they also have the biggest onion rings (Small $ 6 Lg $ 9) I have ever seen! A great crispy batter and great portion size is also a must try! This is an owners run establishment and they are very friendly and welcoming.
The only downside is the parking. pretty limited in the front of the store, but there seems to be some in the back. If your ever hankering for a Poutine. and not just the same ol poutine from the chain restaurants… make your way to G-​Town and give the Mess Hall your a try. because a good poutine is hard to find!

So flipping good!
We ordered a bunch of food to take home and, in my opinion, there were no missteps at all.
The restaurant itself was very cool, with great ambiance. It’s somewhere I’d certainly enjoy hanging out to eat. However, we were here for carryout…
Many times, fried things don’t travel well. This was certainly an exception, though.
The fried pickles retained their crunch and the mac & cheese bites were hot, crispy, and creamy with great flavour (It’s a Canadian restaurant, eh?).
However, let’s face it – you go to a poutinerie for poutine, right?
Well, I was not disappointed. Not one bit. The fries retained a bit of their crispiness under a blanket of gravy. The gravy had a slight sour flavour to it, as though vinegar was a component. It wasn’t off-​putting to me; instead it brought an extra level of flavour I enjoyed. The cheese curds had gone all melty in places and there a few which were still squeaky — perfection! The only problem was there was so much food! Ended up not finishing it all.
Looking forward to the next time!
