Erablière Au Toit Rouge

Review Summary

Erablière Au Toit Rouge is described as delivering solid food and well organized meal service with a hearty all you can eat setup. The menu centers on classic sugar shack staples such as omelettes, beans, ham and generous maple syrup, with desserts noted as outstanding and the syrup widely praised for its authenticity. The staff are repeatedly described as friendly and attentive, and the venue is praised as family friendly with a play area for kids and a small farm to admire. There is mention of a vibe mismatch for some guests who hoped for a more traditional sugar shack atmosphere with cozy fires and traditional music rather than loud nightclub style tunes. The site offers a variety of desserts that set it apart, a thick generous bacon, and good value especially on family packages given the included meals and treats. Improvements over previous years are noted by several groups, including better use of real maple syrup and generally very good food; some comments mention slower service and occasional cold coffee on busy or off days, but the overall impression is positive and it is considered a strong choice among sugar shacks in the area.View restaurant profile
