Cabane A Sucre Arthur Raymond

We were searching for a sugar shack experience near the Glissades de Pays outdoor snow tubing park and found The Arthur Raymond Sugar Shack located right next to the park. The entrance is conveniently situated in the parking lot of the snow tubing park, and a short one-minute drive will bring you to this charming cabin. It is a smaller operation, but the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. The food was authentic and delicious, with a great selection of pickled beets, cucumbers, cole slaw, fresh buns, and a superb Québécois specialty pate called cretons. The basic menu offered an impressive variety of egg dishes, ham, crispy thick bacon, baked beans, hot dogs in maple syrup (would be even better with real sausage), yummy crepes, and traditional sugar pie. The prices were reasonable, likely because there was no entertainment provided at that time (possibly offered later in the day), but the food service was fantastic, with attentive and friendly servers and impressive coffee. Be sure to ask for directions to try the maple taffy on snow at the back of the cabin; though not outdoors, it was still tasty. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for a fun, delicious, and authentic Québécois experience, especially after a morning of snow activities at the Glissades. I will definitely be returning!

Breathe taking view of the Laurentides with spring in the air, a perfect day. Able to accommodate groups, you'll be sitting beside other people, but a great chance to make new acquaintances. The food comes out in courses, lots of food, if you run low, they'll bring you more. It is extremely Quebequoise cuisine, so if you aren't into split pea soup, meatballs, crepes, beans, eggs, ham, deep fried bacon and sugar pie, this might not be for you. If that sounds good to you, it tastes even better. Service is very friendly, coffee was surprisingly good and they include your pulled taffy on snow...nice treat at the end of the meal. The decor is very rustic and charming. Only thing that doesn't make this a perfect 10 is there isn't much to do besides eat. The view is great, but because it is on the ski hill, everything is off limits. Maybe something a but mire interactive would be my only recommendation.

We visited this Sugar Shack on a late Sunday afternoon. Good quality food with excellent service. You can expect a small town experience.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic. You'll start with a traditional pea soup, bread, and cretons, followed by omelets, ham, and oreilles de crisse (a thick, crispy bacon). You can also enjoy ragoût de boulettes (meatballs in brown sauce), boiled potatoes, beans, fresh cole slaw, pickles, and marinated beets. For dessert, there are delicious thin pancakes with maple syrup and/or a piece of sugar pie. You can also have tea, coffee, milk, and buy wine on site. Before leaving, don't forget to try the maple toffee on snow - roll it around a wood stick for a fun experience. This is a great place for the whole family to enjoy, with reservations available for groups of 15 people or more at $22 per person, including tips. You will love the fresh food and the all-you-can-eat concept, so don't hesitate to reorder your favorites.

We were part of a group that had organized a lunch and meeting at this Cabane à Sucre. We usually try to avoid these places because they are loud, and certainly not good for the waistline! What a wonderful surprise. The only offering that disdappointed me was the baked beans. They did not taste like fèves au lard at all. They were even worse than tomato baked beans that you can buy in cans. But everything else was absolutely excellent! There is nothing else to say. But, this IS a review, so let 's try! The pea soup was delicious, full of peas, enough salt, a bit peppery to give it a pleasant bite. It was served at the right temperature so as not to burn the tongue, but to warm the insides of your mouth and all the way down. The eggs were tasty beyond belief, the ham slices good, and the generous portion of thickly sliced bacon was perfect, each peice tasty and crunchy! With some syrop added to the plate ...Wow! And, there was plenty to be eaten ... no skimping on the products! There were boulettes de viande, which were very good, and which went well with the peeled, boiled potatoes. The coleslaw was delicious as well. And the creton was to die for! I had never tried this before, having some stupid personal aversion to this French Canadian delicacy. Well, my mind set has since been changed, and I will happily eat creton anytime, especially if it comes from this Cabane à Sucre! The coffee was good. It is so very surprising how the waitresses are able to weild a pitcher of coffee in one hand and a pitcher of hot tea in the other, and keep people satisfied so quickly, yet at some restos, you can wait 10 minutes for the waitress to return with an over-steeped cup of tea! The crepes and tarte au sucre were ooh la la fantastique. The pie was just a touch below the quality of the one my conjointe makes, so very close, that even she was very much impressed! Greataste, sweet, but not overly sweet, and a crust to die for! Well, to say the least, we ate well, enjoyed ourselves imensely, and personally I would not be afraid to tell people that they won 't be disappointed if they were to go here for their annual feast or maple syrup fix !
