Cabane d'à Côté / Cidrerie Au Pied de Cochon

Such a wonderful experience! The setting is magical. Feasting in nature surrounded by apple and pear trees was delightful. Service staff was eager, friendly and polite. The meal was simply delicious. The menu was well crafted and highlighted seasonal local produce. Kudos to the front and kitchen staff!

An experience to try at least once in your life. No getting around it... This place is EXPENSIVE. For the amount and quality of food they give you however, it is 100% worth it. The chalet is quaint and rustic, the food is all locally sourced. The experience of sitting down and eating, undistracted, is worth the money alone. You will leave feeling full in your tummy and light in spirit. Not good for kids, make it an adult trip.

Had high hopes, but they were dashed even before we got in. It was a rainy day and a bunch of cars got stuck in the mud, including mine. Ended up parking on the side of the road and we all had to wade through the mud. A bunch of drunk people were blocking the entrance to the resto so we had to wait outside in the rain. Once inside the staff seemed pretty organized at getting people to their seats. We were the last round of the night and service was completely inconsistent. The tables are long tables that sit 4 on each side with bench seating. Unfortunately we were 5 so ended as 9 at the table so it was a tight squeeze on one end. Staff was friendly at the outset, but once they realised that only 2 people were drinking at our table, they seemed less and less enthusiastic thereafter. Often they would take away the dishes before we had finished and seemed irritated when we told them that we weren't done. The food itself was underwhelming. The soup with a meatball was a great start and the food was good for the most part, though one of the porc dishes was badly overcooked. There are a lot of particular items on the menu and it's menu fixe, so no altérations or substitutions, so if you have picky eaters, as we did at our table, they might go home hungry. Otherwise there is just enough to be satisfied without being too full, at least for me. You are never overloaded with one taste. The consensus was that the desert, overall, was the best part of the meal (and probably the closest to 'traditional' cabane food. If you are looking for a traditional Cabane à sucre, this is not for you. If you are looking for something a bit different or a unique experience, this might be for you. Overall I'm happy that I tried it, but I would not go back.

The best fresh local ingredients prepared expertly. Make sure to come hungry as there were 14 courses. All of the vegetables come from their garden and the fact that it was all cooked on a wood stove gave the entire restaurant a wonderful smokey aroma. Make sure to try the cocktails too. The selection is limited but they are very well made. The only downside was the lack of A/C.

We had the picnic and it was fabulous. The instructions were clear and the picnic basket was well packaged. There are many picnic spots setup with tables, chairs n shades with ample of space between each other. The food were all delicious and enough for 2 people but the taste is a bit on the heavy side.

Everything was fantastic! Great food and good service. Well worth the 1.5 hour trip from Ottawa for it. Will say that the food is pretty rich, so be sure to plan on not moving too much after your meal.

This is a great place, I highly recommend it. I recommend arriving early to get a cocktail and sit out on the patio to commune with nature. The dinning room is intimate and you feel like you're amount family. The wait staff is superb. Francois was a great waiter and the Cabane is luck to have him amoung others. The food was very fresh and sourced from what be is seasonally avaliable. The menu changes frequently but there wasn't a dish that went wrong. Save room for desert, like their sister restaurants it is well worth it.

The menu is fresh and delicious, and a generous amount for two. We added the burrata and it was really too much food (our dog was happy to help). The orchard is a good size and the designated picnic spots are spaced apart so you don't feel too close to your neighbors. On top of all that, everyone is super friendly. What a lovely escape from the city!
