Amazing poutine, really good beer but not a great atmosphere, people changing diapers on the table next to us…. Again, one of the best poutine I’ve ever had though.

This is our go-to place when we are craving good food! You can stop by after a big hike or on a date, there’s no “dress code” and nobody is going to scan you when you step inside. Oh and the wooden walls make you feel like you are in a cabin in the middle of the forest. This is a MUST TRY!

Vert cool place, the beer 🍺 is awesome and the staff friendly. Extra points for the old school music. Definitely recommend!

The food is good, the place is quite quaint a lovely little restaurant, has a good collection of board games to play around with while you wait for the food. The the beer is the obvious highlight of the experience great for all type of drinkers from a bold 9% IPA to a light citrus cider they have you covered

We decided to find a microbrewery in Sherbrooke during a ski trip and found Le Refuge des Brasseurs. The brewery is located one block of of Main Street and is easy to get to with street parking. We do not speak French, but the waiting staff greeted and spoke to us in English and were friendly. The waitress was very nice and started a conversation with us as we closed our our tab. We ordered a few beers in a flight and they were very good. For food we ordered the Chicken Nachos, Poutine, Fried Pickles, and an Elk Burger. All of the food came out quickly and tasted great. If you like fried pickles you have to try them as they were the best we've had. Overall a great place to check out if you are in or near Sherbrooke.

I usually love coming here for a drink with my friends. The service is usually so good but this time it was mediocre to say the least.

Service was a bit slow. After being served my food, no one had come to check on me for at least 45 minutes.. my glass was empty and plate as well for at least 20 minutes while there were only 2 other tables. The Bison burger I ordered was good, however the portion of fries was a bit small and they were overcooked. The interior decor was nice and they played good music. I would give them a second chance but wouldn't reccomended.

Beers and very good food, our server was able to advise us well! On the other hand, towards the end of the meal, we no longer had any service at all, I didnt have the chance to order anything else. Our server was sitting at a table further away celebrating as if his shift was over without telling us. A lack of professionalism in my opinion. His colleague at the bar ended up making us pay. I still recommend it, maybe we werent lucky!

Beautiful atmosphere and beautiful terrace. On the other hand, some dishes lack a little love... They often dont arrive hot enough and some meals are quite cheap for the price you pay. My boyfriend had a nachos and we could barely see the cheese. On the other hand, there is a nice selection of vegetarian dishes!

Nice waitress, good beer but the food was terrible! Seriously: it wouldn t take much to up their game, and I m fairly forgiving, but the fries were burnt, the onion rings deposited a pool of grease beneath them, the sandwich reminded me of a high school cafeteria. Do better!

Check your employees. Walked in before closing time listed online; there were about 20 ppl still drinking. The guy working refused to serve me because he decided he was done for the night. I asked for just one pint and offered to pay right away it doesn t take much time or effort to pour one beer. It s not like he could leave anyways considering how many people were still drinking. He refused because he already cleaned the taps (lol). It was embarrassing (for him), and I found it really unprofessional on his part. Also, rude. Awful experience. Don t write you re closing at midnight if you close at 11:30. Also, maybe turn off the ouvert sign when you re closed? I really don t see what was the big deal to serve a client, but hey, not everybody wants to make money and build a loyal clientele, I guess. This is how you lose customers. Will not be back and will tell all of my friends about this. The guy recommended Ciboire go there instead. Much better beer and service ;)

December 23, 2022

We arrived for a reservation at 5:30 a.m., because we had a show at 8 a.m. so to have time to eat . 30 minutes before someone came to see us for a drink, I had to intercept the waitress (whom I had to disturb) for a starter. At 6:55 a.m. we look for someone to order our meal. Finally we paid for our meals before having them and we left, leaving a couple of friends to continue waiting after our poutines and burgers because we were already late for our show!! From 5:30 a.m. to 8 a.m. I never ate my poutine at the table. I regret not just canceling my order and leaving. Too bad because the place is super beautiful :/

When they opened around 2015, I didnt believe it would last... Very happy that it has become one of the beautiful microphones in Sherbrooke. The beer is good, the food is good too, and the terrace is well appointed! My only downside is the level of service... I would have thought that in 6 years, it would have improved a little, but it remains at the same level as the evening when my boyfriend had 2 cabarets knocked over him in the same evening (yes yes!!) Often there are errors in orders and it is difficult to contact the servers to order The potential is there, but it just needs a little extra attention to make the experience perfect!

In two visits it was a different experience; The first one was great! I was accompanied by my cousin and his girlfriend, the beer was cold and the spicy nachos with beef were delicious. My second visit was rather lousy, the beer was good but not cold enough when served and the wild boar burger only tasted burnt, unable to distinguish the taste of the meat and the sauce, $25 before tip not very well invested and I was not offered a small compensation discount. So 50/50 as far as Im concerned.

First time Ive sent food back anywhere. Luckily when they brought it back out it was good; not amazing but solid. The beer is the only thing that saved them a tip.

I didnt like the way I was welcomed at all. I had a bag and an empty subway fountain drink glass that I had to throw away. I asked if there was a small place where I could sit. He told me he couldnt let me come in with food because its a restaurant... I had some kraft dinner in my bag, anyway, I didnt intend to to eat in secret!
