Great food, awesome music and the best service in the city ;)
The Garage has the best poutine in the city! You need to give it a try if you haven’t!!
Yummy burgers and love that choice of side includes a salad option! Their poutine is one of the best in the city and takes me back to being in Hull QC!
Delicious! We’ve been meaning to try this for awhile. We had a tight timeline to eat but the service was fast and friendly. The chicken tenders really were tender. And being from Calgary honey dill is new to me but it’s so yummy. The Caesar had a ton of toppings and was delicious. My
Husband enjoyed his steak sandwich and poutine, just wished there were a few more caramelized
onions on top of the sandwich. We’ll definitely be back though as the food was great and this place has a cool vibe and lots of entertainment options.
Best open mic I’ve been to in Winnipeg. Best poutine I’ve had in Winnipeg. Best chicken fingers in Winnipeg. Also their bar tender Dave is probably the best server/bartender/singer I’ve ever encountered. Can’t wait to go back.
Last week my work took me out of the office and as a result I had a chance to eat at a couple of St. Boniface eateries over the lunch hours. The first of these was Le Garage Cafe. I’ve been past this place many times before. I also have a vague recollection of going there to live music a few years ago. Until last week I had never tried the food.
I went here after hearing friends having good service and enjoying their food. Which I have visited a few times since and cannot agree more. I have only been here for lunch though, but I have to say this place is great. For the place being busy, their service has always been prompt. Prices seemed more than fair comparing to other french cuisine restaurants, and the portion sizes were more than adequate. My favourite is the Mussel and fries. I have tried two of the three flavours offered and they both were fantastic. I cannot wait to go back and try the third.
Stopped here through a recommendation for the mussels and fries and broke down cause I just felt like a burger. Whoa. Awesome. Burger and poutine were fabulous. Real cheese curds and gravy were great. My friend had the Cajun shrimp sandwich which was good but the shrimp were so big it was hard to eat... I'll let you decide if you consider that a problem or a compliment!! I had trouble deciding what to get (just wanted a burger today) and will definitely be back based on what I saw on the menu... maybe the apple-Brie sandwich next, OR.... mussels and poutine. Can't wait. Maybe I'll go tonight before going to Festivale du Voyageur... mussels, poutine, French onion soup and tortiere and I'm ready to jig. Good service and a stage for live music. I will be back for more. Great job Le Garage!
Had the white wine mussels and poutine fries. White wine sauce very tasty. The poutine was also very good. With good fries and a nice smooth gravy, giant cheese curds. Very well done. Service was very good as well. Look forward to going back.
I was here last night with a friend for dinner. We arrived around 6 and the place only had 3 or 4 other occupied tables. We ordered the mussels in spicy marinara sauce and the ahi tuna with no rice, extra roasted veg. The broth on the mussels was more thick like a stew, but extremely tasty. The mussels themselves were okay, but rather small and not too meaty. The veg with the tuna was my favourite, cooked perfectly with a smoky flavour. The ahi tuna was a major disappointment however, as it was overcooked, and tasted like they had been previously frozen. I probably would go back as service was friendly and I overall like the menu and would try more. I know they are known for their poutine so I would probably go for that next time, on a cheat day (for my diet).
Excellent food and service! Good portions and good price! I was very impressed. The atmosphere was great!! Very cool place! The food did not take long and was good quality.
I love this spot! It is a great place to check out local talent and grab some food and drinks. Their chicken fingers are delicious and so is the sauce that comes with them.
Update - April 2016
I had only been here before as an evening spot for drinks and a quick bite. Last night I visited le garage for dinner. I had the curry dish and my date had the jambalaya. My dish was delicious!!! Huge portion and great flavour. My date said his dish was very good too and he complimented on how the mussels were cooked to perfection. Le Garage is definitely one of my favourite spots in the city!
Great café in St.Boniface.
Delicious sandwiches, salads and burgers. Must try the smoked peach chicken burger.. it's amazing! The fries are also delicious.
Returned for a quick bite.
Ended up ordering a number of different items.
The lobster prawn ravioli arrived under cooked, so I did not try it. They took it back without issue and replaced the item with the one my friend asked for.
The crab dip was great with a mix of chips and warm naan bread.
My French onion soup didn't seem to have very much cheese inside.
The black bean burger was good.
Service was friendly but again a bit absent.

Went for singer/songwriter Wednesday.
This is a place where something is usually going on.
We ordered 2 items but one was sold out and my friend had an allergy to a lot on the menu so I wasn't able to fully explore here.
There space is a bit grungy with hard wooden seats.
The food I did have was very good and flavorful. It was the pickerel which we added fries to.
Service was friendly when we got it. Beginning of service was fine, but it petered off. We were mostly left alone so water refills rarely occurred. We had to ask or wait 20+minutes.
I'd still go back to try the rest of the menu.
Overall, a good experience. Food was well flavoured but many dishes in our party of 13 were on the cold side. Attentive service. FANTASTIC house made desserts.
Due to open concept, venue can get very loud.
The smoked peach burger is amazing, and the poutine sizes are big enough to share!
This is one of the best casual pubs in the city. Come as you are and dance like no one is watching. The good could be better, my fries were quiet burnt. And, the staff very nice and friendly.
The food here is always delicious. My friend and I came to have a bite during festival but had good service regardless. Nice atmosphere. Le poutine is amazing!
Had some great appetizers and local beers. Our server was incredible, great service and fun. Was a great experience in such a wonderful part of Winnipeg.
