Rank 1. Vin Polisson
Wine Bar
A narrow room with counter seating overlooking a tight kitchen, where Chef Isabelle Charest works with local, seasonal vegetables and sources natural wines from Québec and the Nordic regions. The cooking is intuitive and spare, letting produce speak for itself; wine pairings anchor each plate with precision rather than ceremony.

Rank 4. Parcelles
Vegetarian
Chef Dominic Labelle's farmhouse restaurant pivots daily around vegetables and proteins grown on his own land near Magog. Duck with Romanesco and pastured eggs illustrate a kitchen that works close to the harvest, with natural wines to match.

Rank 7. Pavane
French
François Côté's Pavane occupies a narrow storefront on Granby's main street with the weathered warmth of wood and leather, its menu a frank collage of bistro classics and Japanese impulses. Calf's liver with soubise, lobster mac and gratin, kamikaze salmon tartare—each plate arrives with the ease of a place that knows what it does and stops short of pretense.
-
Rank 8. Bibine Buvette
Modern Cuisine
Chef Chloé Ouellet's second restaurant channels bistro spirit through a short menu of Quebec ingredients—scallops with corn and peaches, venison with blue cheese—built on vegetables from her own garden. A large bar and covered terrace amplify the convivial mood.
