Review Summary

Le Lafrance Bistro offers a picturesque orchard and a wide range of apple based products, with on-site tastings and a shop carrying items from cider and brandy to pastries and breads. Families and friends can enjoy a self-pick apple orchard, a spacious area for picnics, a playground, animals, and live music, while visitors describe the setting as beautiful and welcoming with friendly staff. The bistro provides a sugar shack style menu and meals that many reviewers praise for being delicious and generous, along with a good view from the dining area. Reviewers highlight the fried apple doughnuts as a standout and note the tasting in the shop as tasty, with a variety of products to take home. However, some criticisms appear about crowds and a more commercial feel, with an entrance fee for apple picking, extra charges for bags, and price concerns for some foods and drinks. Service quality is described as mixed, with several praising attentive staff and knowledgeable guides, while others report delays during peak times or lapses in service. Overall, Le Lafrance Bistro is seen as a family friendly and vibrant destination for apple lovers, local treats, and a lively atmosphere, best experienced early in the season or on weekdays to avoid crowds.

It is a very nice place, it is very organized & has many playgrounds within the orchard. It has many apple varieties & the ones we picked are sweet/delicious. The people that work there are very nice & my family & I enjoyed going there.

Great place for a family outing, we enjoyed the snacks at the bar & the walk
The only negative experience was the cappuccino we ordered, barely tastes coffee & hardly there was any coffee in it, besides that I recommend the place

One of the best Sugarshack experiences I've had!

The service was incredibly friendly & warm, the food was fantastic & the environment was delightful: they had a three-piece band that played folk conversions of modern songs & classics.

Our server told us that for generations of the family had worked on this farm & it was their 100th anniversary. At the end of the meal, they offered us an aperitif of their own iced cider.

We ended the experience with a classic baton à tir next to a bonfire.

I'd be back again!

Huge place to take your friends & family. Very clean & great service :) It's a little bit pricey, in my opinion, but everyone needs to survive (I guess).
