Reviews for Domaine Labranche - Sugar Shack / Orchard / Winery / Cidery in Saint-Isidore-de-Laprairie, QC
Not bad but not great! They missed an opportunity to educate us a bit more about how syrup is made from sap. Maybe they should... make a video. It would have been nice to have more trails for walking through the sugar bush. More souvenirs for sale would havemade it a better experience too. The food tasted alright but not special. Our waitress was very good and she was very helpfuleven though we only spoke English. Read more
Service was very good - pleasant and checked up on us often. Unfortunately tips were to be made at the bar upon leaving and I... really didn't feel like waiting in line 10 minutes. Sorry... The food cooled off very quickly and was not at all interestingcold. The marinated veggies were good as were the beets. Pea soup was very plain and not too tasty. Sausages were of unknowntype and were cold. Bacon was thick and also cool and dry. Baked beans were OK but very plain, ham was supermarket style andcold. Nothing was made with maple syrup - you had to add it and that isn't the best way to do things. Fried potatoes were good.Dessert pancakes were pitiful - thin, and cold. As expected there was no live music, but there was recorded traditional musicwhich would have been ok if we could hear it. I asked to turn it up, but it didn't happen. Coffee was actually quite good.Needless to say I won't be returning. Read more
I felt I had more space than other cabane à sucre and they had little rooms so things were spaced out and it was well organized... but the food was meh. Quantity was fine, quality was not there. The meat (ham and bacon) was dry (Although if you let it sit inmaple syrup it gets better) the potatoes were bland and had no flavor. I understand the lower reviews now. It should be simpleenough so I didn't think I'd be left feeling meh, but here we are. Read more
Nice vegetarian menu, very accommodating. However, for the price I would expect a certain attention to details, feels very much... cafeteria-like with their school chairs and plastic cups. Service was rushed with the waiter coming only once for drinks andnever again. Read more
Excellent service. However it was a little pricier than other sugar shacks. The food was okay.
Small little place. I like it because its not too packed with a lot of people like other places! Good place for young kids! The... food however is not worth it! The portions are small and they don?t give a lot of food! We were a group of about 20 peoples andthere is definitely not enough for everyone! They refill the eggs once and that?s about it! Other than the quality and quantityof food the rest is not too bad! Read more
Great place to visit if your not interested in driving over an hour for the cabane a sucre experience and you live on the south... shore. But it is just simple ordinary. The food compared to others is pretty simple. Albeit it is a small place in comparisonto other bigger outfits. I guess the adult admission is the same as other places as well. But for the average rated food servedI didn't feel I got my moneys worth. Also when at admissions paying for family tickets maybe advise the clients that you need topurchase additional tickets for the horse wagon ride so you can get that out of the way once you walk in. Saves the parents fromhaving to deal with a double toddler melt down because daddy has to go line up for tickets and give up halfway through becausethe line up is too long. The boys had a nice time atleast with the mini farm and outdoor park. And mom and dad had maple syrupbeer hehehe Read more
Very nice staff. The wine is beautifully presented but not so tasty. I only finished 2 of the 4 that were given. The apple... picking is okay but very expensive. Read more
