The Château du Lac is a true Hudson institution and a living piece of Québec history. Established in 1898, it holds the title of Québec’s oldest continuously operating bar and the second oldest in Canada. From the days of thirsty patrons arriving on horseback to today’s visitors rolling in on hoverboards, Château du Lac has always been a place where everyone is welcome.
Known for its cold beer, original drinks, and laid-back, friendly vibe, this classic bar is powered by great staff, a lively atmosphere, and a steady lineup of live music and DJs. Whether you’re stopping in for a casual drink, a night of dancing, or to soak up a bit of local history, Château du Lac remains a go-to spot for good times in the heart of Hudson.
