Went for the sugar shack experience and was not disappointed. The fresh maple taffy was incredible and the meal was delicious. I loved the pea soup! They had live music including a violinist. Fun for a family outing or gathering with friends.

I loved the place it's charming, the atmosphere and the great ambiance. It's very traditional, the food was good too. The service was a bit slow because I went during peak hours and there aren't many staff members, so I had to wait quite a while. I'm only giving it three stars because of an incident I experienced that I really didn't appreciate, and which has never happened to me anywhere else. My wife usually keeps some food to take away when she likes a dish or is full. I think that's common practice. However, when I asked two different servers, on two separate occasions, if they could give me a box or container to take the leftovers home, they were very curt and flatly refused, even going so far as to say that we weren't allowed to take food home. That was a bit odd and disappointing, considering the service is expensive. So I wonder what they do with the food, do they reuse it? Or worse, do they throw it away? Overall, everything was fine. Tip: Book it in advance.

This is a big place, a bit loud, but the service is well organized, the food is good, and the atmosphere too. We went there with our kids and liked it.

Where do I even begin? There was no handicapped parking in the lot, and the parking staff there were slightly unfriendly. Our reservation had specifically requested a 30-minute arrival, but when we arrived, we were informed that the dining area wasn’t ready and to explore the area(to b fair, we couldn’t explore cause it was hailing outside). The traditional meal appeared to not be homemade. Our bacon was brunt, but the eggs and ham with maple syrup was delicious. The bread was beyond amazing! (I should’ve asked for the recipe). If you wanted anything other than tea (selection was very limited), coffee, or water, you could purchase drinks from the bar. The bar did take debit. Our server was incredibly helpful and kind! The music was a nice touch, but it made it difficult to hear anything. Overall, I think $162.22 for two people was a bit steep considering the quality of the food we had.

I’m extremely disappointed with my experience at Sucrerie de la Montagne, especially considering its reputation. As my 67-year-old father who had recently undergone shoulder surgery was in the process of getting onto the horse carriage, it was suddenly set into motion without proper warning or assistance. This created a dangerous situation where he was nearly knocked over, and in the process, he tore a surgical staple. This is not a minor issue it’s a serious lapse in safety that could have resulted in a much more severe injury. On top of that, the quality of the food did not meet expectations. The bread, which should be a basic staple, was undercooked in several areas, which was disappointing and frankly unacceptable for a place that prides itself on traditional cuisine. Between the lack of safety precautions and inconsistent food quality, this experience fell far below what should be expected. I strongly urge management to take both guest safety and food standards much more seriously.

Super busy but definitely recommend to families or couples! Surrounded by horses and maple syrup, it's a must

To be honest the price ($70) does not justify the food (quality and quantity). We were a group of 4 people and sat us ina space that has space for 2 actualadult sizes. They secede us 3 sausages and we were 4. I complain to the waiter and brought more. Why do I need to complain if I already pay enough? Most people at the cabane was warm and welcoming except for two waitresses who were sitting people or bringing drinks. I liked the music but I wouldn't pay again 70 bucks just for it.

It was a great pleasure to have old style Canadian lunch in Sucrerie de la Montagne. The atmosphere was so great. I love to visit family business places and would recommend this cute place.

It Was okay nothing special at all and I find the price to have gotten really expensive for what it is. The food was okay portions have gotten smaller and I feel they don't have the same variety they used to and are missing some staples of a Sugar Shack but the kids still got the typical sugar High and passed out in the car on the way home

It was a wonderful setting to enjoy a delicious meal! The fireplace, outdoor fire and traditional, functional tapping on full display made for an interactive, immersive experience. The maple candy in the snow cannot be missed, and make sure to stop in the general store before you leave.

When we arrived, the place was completely packed. We couldn’t even find parking, and once we finally did, we were met with a massive line. We ended up waiting over an hour outside in the cold. The situation was handled very poorly. Management clearly wasn’t prepared for the volume of guests, and there was little to no effort to properly accommodate the long wait times. The only gesture offered was a small cup of very watered-down hot chocolate, which felt insufficient given the circumstances. Whoever was the manager on that day should be fired ASAP! To make matters worse, the food portions were very small, and of course they tried to fill us up with a lot of bread and soup beforehand (typical). Overall, the experience didn’t justify the high prices at all. I wouldn’t recommend this place.

We recently visited this sugar shack and had really mixed feelings about the experience. On one hand, the place itself is absolutely charming, the atmosphere is warm, cozy, and exactly what you’d hope for. The food was delicious and definitely lived up to expectations. Unfortunately, the service completely ruined what should have been a great outing. We had a reservation for 1:30 PM, yet we waited an entire hour outside in the cold before being seated and only sat down at 2:30 PM. After such a long wait especially with two babies under one year old we were then directed to a table that was clearly too small for us. It was completely unreasonable to try and squeeze us there given our situation. From the moment we arrived, the hostess at the front (red hair with a septum/nose piercing) was incredibly rude, hostile and unaccommodating. When we expressed that the table they finally wanted to seat us at after an hour wait wouldn’t work for us (had no room for 2 infants), her attitude only became more dismissive and rude. She told us that we could not sit anywhere else when clearly that was untrue as there was a whole other empty room at the other side being set up. At one point, she even mentioned that since we were part of the last service, they were tired and needed breaks so they wouldn’t be able to set up another table for us promptly and we would have to wait another 30 min.. Something that should never be said to paying customers. Why are we expected to pay for their breaks or be penalized for being the last service? It came across as extremely unprofessional and inappropriate. Not even sure why someone so bitter is working at a place like this. After 10 min of trying to get her to understand, magically the other side was completely ready and we were given a larger table there. Was it really another 30 min wait or just her not wanting to accommodate us? She clearly had no regard and just wanted to rush and shove us somewhere. Its pitiful to treat people with young children like this. It’s really disappointing because the setting and food had so much potential to make this a wonderful experience, but the service, especially this interaction with the young lady, overshadowed everything. Between the long wait, the lack of consideration for our small children, and the overall attitude we were met with, it turned what should have been a nice outing into a frustrating and unpleasant experience.

Going to this sugar shack feels like navigating an overcrowded airport, except colder. From the moment you arrive, it’s clear that management prioritizes volume over experience, and you end up paying the price for it, literally. At $70 per reservation, which is wildly overpriced in my opinion, you’d expect at least a baseline level of organization. Instead, the venue is massively overbooked, the parking situation is a complete afterthought (be prepared to hike 2 km just to reach the entrance), and despite having a confirmed reservation, we waited over an hour outside in the cold before being seated. By the time we actually started eating, two hours had passed since our reservation time. And to top it off, we ended up at what must have been the draughtiest table in the whole place. Once seated, the ordeal wasn’t over either. Wait times between services were agonizingly long. I heard management was blaming earlier groups for the delays, but having lived through it, it felt much more like the staff simply couldn’t keep up with the sheer number of people they’d let in. The only thing that saved the experience was the service, friendly but clearly overworked and overwhelmed, and the food, which was genuinely good. But good service and decent food can only go so far when the whole operation is this poorly managed. It feels more like a tourist trap than anything close to a traditional sugar shack. If you’re going, dress warmly and clear your afternoon

Went yesterday with my daughters for the sugar shack event. Website clearly states to reserve a slot and be on time. Tickets were for 2pm slot. We waited over well over 1 hour outside before they would leave us in, then waited again indoors as they start assigning us seats. Staff were polite but would not explain the delay. Finally got our tables. The food was average, music was good but volume was over the top and my kids covered their ears for the first 20 minutes until the band took a break. Server was polite and helpful so i can fault her but she admitted that office had triple booked the slot time and many other customers were not happy. Location is pretty but the adult ticket prices were way above average price and did not meet my expectation. Felt like a very expensive cafeteria experience would not recommend.

Most authentic Cabane experience! Loved the atmosphere and food, live music was great. Only thing missing for me was pudding chomeur on the menu. But the hot meal was the best I’ve ever had at a sugar shack in Quebec.

Shocking, absolutely heaving! Had a reservation and huge queue outside and waiting outside with very young babies and disabled people. It doesn't seem to matter when you're reservation is you will have to queue in the cold for at least an hour if not longer. Considering the amazing reviews I am shocked more people aren't complaining about this. Inside is lovely, if you are lucky enough to make it inside!

Bonjour and thank you for your visit. Due to the weather this morning a lot of reservations showed up later so that is the cause of the wait today we are sorry but it is out of our control.

Sucrerie de la Montagne is a great place to experience a traditional Quebec sugar shack. The setting is beautiful, surrounded by nature, and it really gives you that authentic rustic atmosphere. The food is generous and very good, with all the classic dishes you’d expect. The service was solid and the overall experience was enjoyable, especially for a visit with family or friends. The only downside for me is that I found it a bit on the pricey side for what it is. Still, it’s a nice spot to visit at least once for the experience.
