Le Tap Room Bistro - Made for gathering

Beneath century-old beams, with Lake Massawippi just beyond the windows, Le Tap Room has long been one of the Manoir’s favourite gathering places. Here, Chef Alexandre Vachon offers a more relaxed expression of his cuisine—generous, seasonal and deeply rooted in Québec. Settle in by the fire, gather around the table and stay awhile.

Generous by nature

Québec, served with ease

The menu follows the seasons and what arrives from the region’s producers, bringing together fresh fish, grilled meats, vegetables at their peak and Québec cheeses. Familiar in spirit yet thoughtful in execution, the cooking lets exceptional ingredients speak for themselves—food made to be enjoyed without ceremony.

“I cook the dishes I love to serve to my friends. Every ingredient has its story, and every plate is a way of telling it.”

Chef Alexandre Vachon

From the cellar and the bar

From carefully chosen wines and Champagnes to seasonal cocktails and alcohol-free creations, the Tap Room’s beverage program shares the same philosophy as its kitchen: thoughtful, generous and never overcomplicated.

A Manoir Tradition

The table we return to

For generations, Le Tap Room has brought together hotel guests, neighbours and friends. After a day on the lake, a walk through the forest or simply when the mood calls for something good to eat, this is where people come together. Some traditions endure for a simple reason: they still feel right.
