About Normandin

Normandin is a family restaurant chain that started in Québec City in 1969. Its restaurants are open early and late, serving breakfasts, burgers and the classic Quebec hot chicken sandwich, known in French as a hot chicken.

Normandin suits families, travellers and night owls looking for a simple, familiar meal. A big breakfast before a day of skiing or a road trip is a common way to enjoy it, and a hot chicken sandwich covered in gravy is comfort food on a cold evening. For many people outside Montreal, it is part of everyday Quebec life.
