Place St Francois

Saint-Francois

Review Summary

Place St Francois comes across as a quiet, family friendly spot with a broad menu and good value, where breakfast and brunch are frequently praised and the service is described as warm and attentive. Many reviews highlight solid cooking and a welcoming atmosphere, while a few notes point to inconsistency with dishes such as a poutine that was soggy and components like salad that looked tired. The restaurant is seen as supportive of families, with high chairs and boosters readily available, though one comment mentions only a single changing table in the women's restroom. Some feedback references a change of ownership and mixed results, with others saying the quality has improved under new management and a later remark noting a decline. Overall, there is a strong sense of wanting to return for friendly staff, reasonable prices, tasty options, and the pleasant Sunday breakfast experiences that many guests remember, despite occasional remarks about variability.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Ferme Forget is described as a welcoming, family friendly destination with a wide range of activities for kids, including a huge maize maze, a corn field, a maize pool, animal encounters, tractor rides, and opportunities for pick-your-own pumpkins, flowers and other produce. Visitors repeatedly note the friendly staff and a bright, inviting atmosphere that makes it easy to spend an hour or more, especially on weekdays when the place can feel almost private. The scenery is beautiful and seasonal decor plus opportunities to pick flowers or fruit add to the appeal, along with a well stocked shop and fresh produce. Fresh fruits and vegetables are praised for quality, with blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, pumpkins, apples and corn frequently mentioned. Practical notes include limited shade and few picnic tables by the food truck, with some activities like the mini farm mostly paid, but these do not overshadow the overall family friendly experience. In terms of overall impression, Ferme Forget stands out as a place to visit with kids for a mix of play, farming, animals and seasonal decor, and many say they would return.View restaurant profile

Sugar Shack

Review Summary

Ferme Aux Vieux Chênes is described as a small, authentic sugar shack with a warm, old fashioned vibe and a welcoming, friendly staff. The dining experience is praised for tasty, hearty food, generous portions, and nostalgic flavors, from soupe aux pois and quiche to ham that melts in the mouth and well seasoned potatoes, with desserts that can be worth the price and even takeout containers for leftovers. The atmosphere is intimate and family friendly, with a cozy ambiance and occasional songs that add charm, and reservations are recommended because space is limited. Some comments mention a slower pace between courses and the need for a bit more attention when supplies like bread, coffee, or condiments run low, but the service is generally described as amiable and the staff as accommodating. Overall, it is viewed as a memorable, authentic sugar shack experience that many would gladly return to with positive vibes and a sense of tradition.View restaurant profile
