You can buy some food at the farm & they have quite a big indoor play area for kids. The outdoor area isn't as nice as some other farms, but it's free, so you get great value for menu. The chip "truck" (more like a booth) has a small menu: pretty basic fries & poutine. You can tell the fries are home made. They're pretty good though they can be crispier. The gravy is pretty good. The cheese curds were pretty squeaky, though cut small. Bacon was only $1 more & was pretty good. Ketchup, salt, pepper & herbs are free to take. You can get mayonnaise free by request. read more

Poutine isn't quite the same as poutine from Quebec. But the fries themselves are the real standout! The fries are better/comparable to Quebecois poutine! The fries are from potatoes they grow themselves. They could have been more generous with the amount of gravy. Amount of cheese curds was ok. It was the squeaky kind of cheese. Bacon on the Supreme were like bacon bits. Good value, for the price and portion size you get. Really cute farm shop selling produce and another shop near the chip truck where you can get pavlovas, pies, jams, honeys, and frozen packs of their fries! All decent/fair prices. Overall, good place to visit for lunch during the summertime. read more

Best fries ever. The poutine is amazing. The best thing is if you go into the little store and into the freezer section, you can buy their fries and have them at home. They're amazing and hot. They stand up really well in the air fryer nice and crispy. Highly recommend this location when you're craving fries . The staff couldn't be any friendlier great experience thanks read more

went with a few friends to try their famous fries. There were three options: fries ($5), poutine ($7), and poutine + bacon ($8). They charge the prices as is so decently priced! Overall they were decent but didn't blow me out of the water or anything. I think the poutine/fries themselves were decently good but nothing else really going for it (at least when I went). The farm shop had a couple of different squashes, potatoes, and corn. Usually, they seen to have strawberry picking (as it says on their website) but they were unable to have it this year. Not much else to do other than eat and is in pretty much the middle of nowhere. Wouldn't say that the fries weren't worth it but there's a lot of other places I could go for food for a 30 minutes drive. My review would be closer to 3.5 stars but nothing exceptional I felt with the overall experience or the food. Maybe I'll come back if the rest of the stuff was available but at the moment, I wouldn't really highly recommend. read more

As the name suggests, it's family owned and run farm. The farm strawberries and Yukon Potatoes . The farm has pick your own strawberries or buy at the counter option. You can either bring your own basket or buy 1$ each basket. Berries are fresh and delicious. Farm is decent in size. The potato sack is like 4$ for 20 pounds, fine quality. They serve steak and freshly made fries and poutine onsite. There are a lot of picnic tables and garden furniture to sit and relax. Beautifully done. Ample of parking spots. Love this place. read more

This review is specifically related to pumpkin picking and the poutine. I may change the rating if I come back for strawberry picking or the fun barn. After not getting the poutine I was promised last weekend, I decided to haul my family out to Rose's where I'd heard they have awesome poutines and pumpkin picking. I thought I could knock off two birds with one stone. Well, it turns out while you can technically pick your own pumpkin, it's basically picking from a pile that they've already picked for you, and not picking from the field as I had imagined. A bit of a disappointment there. I bought a pumpkin and some spaghetti squash anyway (they also have acorn and butternut squashes, I think they were $3 each or 2 for $5) but that was a bit of a puzzling experience - there isn't anywhere obvious to pay for it, nor is there anyone standing around to help guide you. The majority of the pumpkins are close to the indoor fun barn, but if you want to go to the 'chip truck', once you turn onto the farm property, it's closer if you keep driving straight past the fun barn on the left, and park in the small lot by the actual farm. We ordered a regular poutine, as well as a supreme poutine, which is basically a regular poutine with bacon. Having seen other people's poutines, I asked for extra gravy, and I'm glad I did. I wish I'd asked for extra cheese too. As poutines go, this was decent for Ontario. The gravy isn't the dark beefy gravy that is so popular out west, but not a light chicken gravy either... I am guessing that it might be vegetarian or vegan? The fries are pretty thick cut - they're fine, if a little pale for my liking (the fries are my least favourite part), but I think other fry aficionados would like it. The cheese curds were real, but they were very small bits, as if it was from the bottom of the bag. I was satisfied with the poutine but I don't think I would come out of my way for it. read more

Poutine, fries and gravy. Unfortunately, gravy wasn't hot and cheese curds didn't melt properly. Left with a lot of just hard unmelted pieces on the side at the end. Waiting time was an hour just to get some fries. Quite disappointing that 4 people were in the chip truck but only one girl was actually working (from taking order, to frying the chips, and delivery). read more

I tried the poutine here today and I'm not sure what all the hype is about. Yes the potatoes are grown right there on the farm so they are supposed to be fresh. The fries I had didn't really taste fresh though. They have an odd texture where the outside is crispy but once you bite into it it's like air and the fry just collapses. Maybe the potatoes were dehydrated?? My husband said the same thing and we both really like French fries. The actual place itself is nice. There are a lot of tables outside and there is also a small building where you can also sit and eat if the weather isn't great. They sell potatoes, pumpkins, pies, jams, and meats. It's family friendly and dog friendly. read more

I think the residents in the area would prefer to keep this place secret. The fresh cut fries are absolutely awesome. If you like poutine, you should go here for sure. Fresh cut fries, real gravy and cheese curds. Plus if you want bacon they can add that. You will likely see many local business owners here purchasing fries/poutine for their staff. They also have potatoes for sale, cowboy steaks and many other items.(cheeses) I love this place and eat the poutine pretty much every Friday... (guilty pleasures) read more

Great poutine and pumpkin picking experience. Poutine was delicious, cheese curds were squeaky and the potatoes tasted so fresh. Will definitely return many times in the summer. read more

Where do I begin.. This farm is full of wonderful people, tons of food options such as fresh veggies and fruits, home made jams, meat, cheese..chip truck! Try Anna's Strawberry Jam.. sugar free or regular. Unreal. I have an aunt who visits from Northern Ireland almost every summer and always comes to the farm for a jar of banana jam to take home. My fiancé and I go for our bi weekly chip truck visit on Sundays. Their chips are unreal.. their poutine, the best around. You will not taste any better. Fresh pototoes, awesome gravy, nice staff working the truck.. amazing. Then we leave with a 50 pound bag of potatoes. Pick some strawberries, stop for a poutine, sit and relax, grab a bag of potatoes and fresh veggies, grab a drink and head home.. perfect for a summer day! read more

Visited the Rose Family Farm with my 5 year old son on his last day of school. I don't think i was the only one to have that idea! It was very quiet on a week day afternoon. The two folk from the farm who I encountered were greatly helpful and told us where the best strawberries could be found that day. We picked strawberries and everything was clean and well tended to. I ended up buying some Strawberry jam and cheese as well. They sell potatoes, onions and have a fry stand (probably for the weekends). They have a full list of pies both fruit and meat based and a great selection of frozen meats available as well. Parking is easy. Great for groups. read more

My wife had the poutine; fresh cheese curds, country style gravy, home cut fries that taste like real farm potatoes. She loved it ! I just can't stop thinking about those individually vacuum sealed cowboy steaks that cook so good on the grill. Pre-tenderized and marinated; just unreal flavour. Definitely worth the drive to Uxbridge. read more

One of the best Poutine I've ever had (and i live in Montreal!!) also they serve it in paper container and the straws are paper as well!! Compostable and environmental friendly so i give them triple plus for that read more

Ive been going to Rose Farm for a few years now. Super friendly. Great place to sit, relax and enjoy an order of tasty fries. I like em straight and well done but if poutine is your thing then go for it. You wont be disappointed. Afterwards grab a tray of delicious butter tarts for desert. This IS the Ontario of my childhood. read more

I first heard about this farm from our realtor while we were house hunting in the nearby area. I'm a poutine fanatic so I couldn't wait to check out this place. I opted for a regular poutine ($5) that includes farm fresh fries, real cheese curds, and delicious gravy. I thought the poutine was perfection and met my high expectations. Prices are great and the portions are big! The atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly with an outdoor patio area for sitting and enjoying your food. We also indulged in some pre-picked strawberries that were priced at $5/Quart. These strawberries were delicious and the best I've ever had. Will definitely go back for seconds! read more

We were driving by and I saw the large signs for Rose Family Farm. The signs mentioned some of the produce they were selling as well as fresh fries. The farm was easy to find thanks to the clear indications on the signs. It was lunch time when we got there so we decided to buy something from their chiptruck. We took a poutine with bacon. The poutine was a good size that my wife and myself shared. The fries were fresh (grown on their farm), and the curds, sauce and bacon were delicious. All that for 6$. After eating we went in the little store where they sell meat and baked goods from local farms. We bought marinated steaks, stuffed pork tenderloin and some pecan butter tarts. The tarts were delicious. We also bought some potatoes and corn that they grow on their farm. Overall the Rose Family Farm is a nice farm to get great fresh food. The staff was also very friendly and answered any questions we had. Will definitely return. read more
