Tables and high tops downstairs and then more seating upstairs. Fun 80's pop music was playing the day we were there. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The beer menu has 24 rotating beers on tap which you can order in an 8 oz glass, 16 oz pint, or a 52 oz pitcher! The food menu had several salads, burgers, poutines, nachos (our neighbors had that!!), hot pretzel (we got that), brisket, Mac and cheese, and dessert. The pretzel was sooo good, hot and doughy. Served with a coarse honey mustard dip and pickled veggies. They had a few specials going on including an all you can eat on Saturdays and Sundays ($35 WITH a reservation). Like I said, nice little pause in the sight-seeing action.

All of the beer we had was very good and I finished with a sour that really topped the charts for sours. We snacked on some poutine with beef on top and we thought it was very delicious but just didn't have room to try anymore of the entrees. The restaurant was quite busy when we arrived and we were tucked away in a little corner, but that was okay because there were large groups of people there for various celebrations and it was quite loud. So we were kind of happy that we had our own little nook.

It's our annual tradition to go apple picking and while you could probably get great apples at…read moreother orchards with less crowds, you'll miss out on the restauraunt, boutique, bistro, live band, park, petting farm, and picnic grounds that makes Verger LaFrance so popular. If you go during peak apple picking season in September, expect to find large crowds everywhere! If you go in the beginning of October, it is much less crowded and you may even be able to find an available ladder in the orchard. I personally prefer visiting in the first two weeks of October since you can pick Cortland apples as they're the last type of apple to ripen and they keep really well. In September, it's too early for them and they're usually very small and unripe. What to know about visiting during covid is that you're not allowed to eat the apples in the orchard but then again, there's no enforcement of it so people do so anyway. There are lines to go into the boutique and bistro but you have the music of the live band to keep you entertained while you wait. They make some sought after apple donuts and the best place to pick up the donuts are at the Bistro. You can get them fresh out of the fryer and it's 6 for $13.75. They're not as appley as I had hoped, rather they're very doughy and cinnamony. They're best eaten fresh. We warmed them up in the oven the next day but not as good. So my advice is to get what you can eat immediately. If you want honeycrisp apples, those are available outside the boutique already picked, available in 3 sizes: 3lb, 5lb and 10lb. You can also buy other pre-picked apples and mini sour apples. There's a very tall sour mini apple tree located at one of the intersections in the orchard and the kiddies love eating them. If you're going during peak season, go early because the crowds swell as the day progresses. There's tons of parking around so that part isn't a problem. Since they're open year round, you could save the visits to the boutique for another time and avoid the crowds.

From the outside it looks like a microbrewery and yes beer is made locally. And the beer pairings we had we had were very tasty as well. Service was a bit slow, as our waitperson was also helping the outside tables. All in all, it was great dining experience. We ended the day with a walk up the hill on Rue St. Denis, along ivies and neoclassical, Art deco, English, modern homes and buildings.

Siboire means the table in the church where they put the chalice, ostie, criss Tabarnak Siboire or ciboire is the place to put the ostie! As to the food, this is a very nice pub. None of the food is healthy, but sometimes you need some grease. It's also very good grease. I had a flight of 6 draft beers. All good. One was a sour beer. At first I was scared if it. With each sip I said to myself this is weird. This is strange. Then this is good. Now I kinda like it. I really like that the fish and chips can include three different kinds of fish. Cod, haddock and salmon. Even more impressive was the bun on my fish sandwich. The outside was crispy and the inside soft and colored red! Amazing bun. The servers are nice, it has a small coed bathroom that lets the ladies have a peek at guys trying to be firemen! I highly recommend, tabarnak, ostie cross Siboire!

It looks really stunning - everything looks new and clean with plenty of seating in the large dining room. When we arrived it wasn't too crowded and were seated towards the side of the dining room close to the windows. At its heart, this is a brewery and they have a good selection of craft beer. We were given the option of beer if we wanted to pay on our own, but we were really there for poutine which was included in the tour. I'm not much of a beer person so I passed, but did partake in the poutine. It was pretty good, though I wouldn't say it was too noteworthy. I have now had poutine from several places in the city, and this would be middle of the road for me. It was tasty and quality, but nothing too exciting. I don't really fault them though, as poutine is not the star of the show here. Service as good - overall I had a fine experience at Siboire. I need to return to explore more of their menu - and possibly a beer.

We've been looking for a place like this in our own city and haven't been successful in 5 years and Boswell Brasserie hit all the marks: cozy, lovely inside, not loud/crowded, excellent food and beer. Our server was so kind even though we do not speak French (sorry!) and we had an incredible evening. Low lighting with holiday lights made it so festive and warm when it was FREEZING outside. Street parking nearby is fairly easy to come by in the evenings. Prices are reasonable for high quality food and beer.

Sat our giant party at the middle of the restaurant without feeling cramped. Beer list keeps at a standard $6.50 price point, but you get a different pour depending on style. First tried the "Milkshake IPA" (12 oz) - a silky smooth dark beer, with not too much hop for an IPA. Also had the "Altbier" (crisp lingering ale), and the "Grisette" (moderate saison). For food, had the off-menu Poutine - a basic layering of fries, gravy and curds. The cheese curds were large but chewy and the fries could have been warmer.

Beyond that, the space had a very old-fashioned look. Really nice wooden fixtures and a very warm, welcoming vibe.

He expressed interest in hitting up some breweries, so I did some research and compiled a few we could potentially visit. Brasserie Dieu du Ciel was one of them, and it just so happened we were in its vicinity after our Mile End food tour concluded. That being said, we made our way over. While I am not a beer person myself, I'll have a round or two if I'm with a group, and can appreciate a good brewery. My first impression of Dieu du Ciel was just that - the vibes were on walking in. The space is pretty large - kinda separated into semi- compartmentalized spaces with tables throughout. There's not much decor, but medium-toned woods throughout which gave it a sort of upscale feel. They offer a food menu, but we were just here for drinks. They have a really wide selection of beer - again, I'm no connoisseur, but I could tell that the selection was way more than other breweries I've been to. I ended up getting a cider for the first round and a stout for my second round - both very good. Service was great, and overall we enjoyed our time at Dieu du Ciel. Their selection and comfortable setting made it a standout brewery for me out of the ones I've visited in Montreal - I wouldn't hesitate to return.
