Erablière Au Sous Bois

Mont-Saint-Grégoire

Review Summary

Erablière Au Sous Bois is described as a family friendly sugar shack with a warm ambiance and solid service, where kids can enjoy face painting, a big screen Just Dance, and other activities, and the main building feels lively and welcoming. Reviewers frequently praise the staff for friendly, efficient service and note that reserving can help avoid wait times. The carriage ride is often described as short and pricey, and the on site farm area is seen by some as small or not very authentic. Food receives a mixed verdict: portions are generous and desserts such as pouding chomeur and tarte au sucre are often highlighted, but some main dishes are not top notch and items like bacon and ham can be tough; the maple sugar on snow is sometimes not as good as expected. Still, the overall experience is considered enjoyable, clean, and family oriented, with lots of activities for kids, a friendly atmosphere, and good value for groups, leading many to plan a return or to make it an annual outing, possibly comparing with other sugar shacks but staying attracted by this option.View restaurant profile

Le Plateau-Mont-Royal

Café Sandwiches Bagels Couscous

Review Summary

Kahwa Café receives enthusiastic praise for its fresh, house-made bread and a wide range of satisfying sandwiches like the chicken panko, merguez, lamb, kebab libre, Italian and falafel, with many noting that the bread is baked on site and meats and fillings are fresh and flavorful. The sauces, especially Kahwa sauce, are commonly highlighted as a perfect match for the fillings, and prices are considered good value for the quality. The atmosphere is described as cozy and lively with fast, friendly service, though the space can feel a bit small and crowded and lines can be long when busy. Takeout and a summer terrace are convenient options, and guests consistently return to try more flavors. A few reviews mention occasional slower service or inconsistent dine in comfort, but the consensus is that Kahwa Café is among the best sandwich spots in Montreal with standout items like the panko chicken and kebab varieties and a focus on fresh, on site bread.View restaurant profile

Au pied de l'Erable

Review Summary

Au pied de l'Érable is described as a warm, family‑run sugar shack that delivers an authentic traditional Quebec experience with generous, homemade dishes served in a cozy, non‑industrial setting. The atmosphere is welcoming and family‑friendly, with attentive service and staff who clearly take pride in the place, and live music that stays gentle and close to the tables. Dishes such as the soufflé omelette and the maple desserts are frequently highlighted, and the all‑you‑can‑eat format along with a shop of maple products and a small outdoor farm enclosure for children are noted positives. Some comments mention minor flaws like maple butter that can be too soft or runny and occasional menu items such as certain sausages in syrup or other mass‑market offerings not to every taste, with a suggestion that the music could be a touch livelier. BYOW is mentioned as a plus, and the overall impression is that Au pied de l'Érable stands out for its heart, tradition, and consistent quality, inspiring repeat visits, though prices may be higher than some expect.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Erablière La Goudrelle is described as a large, family friendly sugar shack that many visitors cherish for its welcoming atmosphere, maple treats, and activities for kids, including a play area, animal attractions, and even a dance floor, making it a recurring visit for some groups. Reviews show a mix of strengths and drawbacks: some praise the soups, desserts, and the all you can eat maple options, while others criticize inconsistent food quality, with items tasting burnt or bland, sausages with odd texture, bacon served burnt or too hard, undercooked beans, and dry or prepackaged bread.

Overall the venue works well for large families and is seen as one of the better sugar shacks for maple syrup, desserts, and atmosphere, but experiences vary and some visits leave expectations unmet due to kitchen and logistical issues.View restaurant profile
