You Can Get Huge Lobster Rolls & Seafood Poutine At This Seaside Snack Shack In Quebec

Calling all seafood lovers!🦞

The Cantine Sainte-Flavie is a must-stop on your Quebec seafood tour. Just don't blink or you might miss it. 

The unimposing snack shack in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region has a hearty menu of very Québécois fruits de mer delights, including lobster rolls and shrimp, lobster or crab poutine.

A menu posted in May also shows classic snack shack eats, like burgers, giant hot dogs, club sandwiches and fries.

But best of all might be the view. The cantine sits right on the seashore (well, it's technically still the Saint Lawrence River Estuary, but it's the closest we can get to the sea in most of southern Quebec).

Get the details below.

Cantine Sainte-Flavie

Cuisine: Seafood and summer snacks

Address: 479, route de la Mer, Sainte-Flavie, QC

Why You Need To Go: To enjoy some greasy fried food and eat seafood the way it's meant to be consumed: on the side of the road.
