Although you're not likely to find much in the way of quality ethnic dishes, the major towns in the region serve a variety of cuisines at a range of prices, with French and regional specialties dominating the higher end of the price scale. The Eastern Townships are particularly strong on regional cuisine using local artisanal ingredients.
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.
Serving traditional pub fare, the Knowlton Pub has been around since time immemorial and is one of the best-known establishments in the Eastern Townships. The service is friendly but diners have been known to wait a little longer than they'd like for their food to be served, particularly on dinner theater nights.
Massawippi pale and brown ales and a vast selection of microbrews and imports are all on tap here. Pub food is served both in the upstairs dining room and in the tavern. There are three terraces at this waterfront restaurant, so you'll be sure to enjoy the fantastic view of the Massawippi River. It's a popular place and can get busy at lunch and on warm summer evenings, so try to get there early.
