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.

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).

First time coming to this orchard, & the only word that comes to mind is WOW! It's so beautiful & so clean. There are about 8 rows of parking, a lot of playgrounds for the children, a little farm area with goats, a store to buy the apples products, & a bistro. They have a big tractor to bring into the rows of the apple or plum orchard. In between the trees, there is a playground, if the kids get bored of picking the fruits, a trash can, & in some areas, there is a "john on the spot" (toilet). After picking the apples, we bought apple slushy & fresh apple donuts (which were delicious), & we sat at one of the many picnic tables & let the kids free in the play structures. There is a fee of 4$ for people over the age of 12 years & a price per bag (price varies with the sizes of bags). All in all, we had a great time!

Attention, c'est 4 $ pour les 12 ans & plus pour l'accès aux vergers, en plus du prix du sac de pommes. Donc, si vous voulez faire une sortie en famille, cela peut revenir assez cher.

C'est notre endroit préféré pour la cueillette de pommes. Chaque année, toute ma familles rend la bas & passe de bons moments. Le coin animaux & jeux est cool.

My wife & i visited this past weekend & loved it. Great selection of products in the gift shop, we got to sample a lot of different gins, ciders & their apple cider brandy (amazing!!!). Before buying anything we went & sat at the bar & met a lovely barmaid named Ninja (I believe). She gave 10/10 service, educated us on all their different products & we were so happy it was quiet that day that she was able to share her knowledge with us. Typically i am more of a microbrewery kind of guy but totally loved my experience there on Saturday. We left the bistro & bought half the gift shop... Can't wait to go back. Thank you for the tremendous service at the bar.

La salle du bistro est magnifique & a accueilli une réception organisée par ma famille. Le personnel était à l'écoute de nos besoins & a été aux petits soins avec nous. Les paysage & le lieu sont magnifiques en été.

Très bel accueil, service client courtois. Dégustation de cidre...& de spiritueux fait d'alcool de pommes, wow !!! Pâtisseries...les beignets de pommes...ouff! J'y retourne pour le Limoncello & à mon avis différent que ceux que j'ai déguster dans le passé venant en particulier d'Italie. Celui du Domaine Lafrance à un alcool de pommes venant de leurs distillerie ce qui fait de ce Limoncello exceptionnel. Merci & de plus que dire du paysage bucolique. 🥰 & surtout ne pas attendre le temps des pommes pour y aller...ouvert 7 jours sur 7.
