About us

Our Story

Founded in 2013 on Lionel‑Daunais Street in Boucherville, the first Chez Lionel brasserie was born. Inspired by classic French brasseries, the concept offers modern French cuisine in a warm, welcoming atmosphere—where attentive service and the joy of sharing take centre stage. Over the years, Chez Lionel has continued to grow across Québec and Ontario, with openings in Laval in 2020, followed by Sainte‑Thérèse in 2022, Brossard in 2023, and Kanata—its first Ontario location—in 2024. The brand’s expansion continues with Montréal in 2025 and Québec City, with an opening planned for fall 2026.
