Get your pre-match food in Tooting
Big football matches call for proper comfort food, and there are not many dishes better suited to match night than poutine.
Poutinie serves authentic Canadian poutine made with crispy fries, real squeaky cheese curds and rich gravy, along with a choice of loaded toppings.
You can find us inside Tooting Market, just a short walk from Tooting Broadway station.
What is authentic Canadian poutine?
Traditional Canadian poutine is made using three essential ingredients:
Crispy fries
Real cheese curds
Hot gravy
The heat from the fries and gravy gently softens the curds while allowing them to keep their distinctive squeak.
At Poutinie, we serve the classic version alongside loaded poutines featuring smoked beef, chicken and other toppings. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available.
For anyone who has never tried it before, an England World Cup semi-final is a very good excuse.
