Market Desserts & Sweets

Mentioned in: Apple Picking Near Montreal: Our Essential Destinations

Review Summary

Petit et Fils - Verger et Cidrerie is described as a scenic, family friendly destination with a strong lineup of homemade products, especially ciders and apple treats, and an orchard that shines in the fall for apple picking while the restaurant stays open year round. The staff are repeatedly noted as warm, helpful, and knowledgeable, with a pleasant tasting and shopping experience and a well stocked boutique offering a variety of products and bakery items. However several drawbacks appear in the reviews, including a per adult bag entry policy that many find expensive, occasional small tasting portions or paid tastings, and sometimes unclear signage inside the grounds. Some concerns are raised about animal welfare in the mini farm area and aging play structures, and crowds can be heavy during peak season. A few service missteps at the restaurant or counter are mentioned. Despite these issues, the cider selection, the quality of products, the variety of apples, and the overall atmosphere lead many to rate it highly and return for the ciders and baked goods, making it a popular family outing and a destination for cider lovers.View restaurant profile
