Limited menu that’s lacking taste. Walk 2 mins towards the Main Street and choose from the available restaurants. Would avoid, better options in the small town

Beautiful little place in the heart of Trois-Rivières. Great service, great food.

What a nice place to eat. Poor girl she was alone doing everything. When we went it wasn't crowded but she never stopped. The food was amazing, I simply loved the buckwheat crepes she made for us. I will return for sure.

★★★

It has a very charming atmosphere and the servers were very nice, but there was consistent quality on the crepes we ordered as some were very hard and rigid. The glasses and pitchers throughout the restaurant were not clean. If they can fix their dishwasher and maybe get new eyeglass prescriptions they should be fine. It is a really sweet place.

★★★

I have a feeling this place used to be better than it is now, given the reviews. Nothing wrong with a limited menu but the food should be good. Everything looks appetizing on the plate, but my goodness is it bland. Bland to the point of being baffling. Same unseasoned salad mix in both the crepe and side salad, no sauce, no salt, no pepper, dry chicken, hard croutons in the onion soup, no sweetness in the sour, enamel-stripping lemonade... Service was mediocre. It’s a beautiful location and building that could be far better utilized.

This is the show of one woman. She is the cook, server, and the one who asks if you want a tea or coffee. She gives you free berries smoothies and tea during your wait, and a cookies before you leave the restaurant. Yes it will be a little bit slow because it is only her there on Sunday, but who wants to rush in this such a peaceful place? I get a crepe with blueberry and chocolate and it tastes very homemade, which makes the whole experience down to earth. Highly recommend!

This is one-woman show. One lady doing the tables, the cashier and the cooking. She was super nice and friendly, but service is SLOW as you would expect. Food was OK. Limited choices for brunch. Excellent coffee included

For Brunch its not great I dont recommend it, maybe lunch or dinner is better, I hope so! In the morning you have the choice between pancakes or the famous breakfast board. We had a buckwheat crepe which was quite bland served with 2 pieces of orange cut unevenly, the coffee was good for a restaurant! Our friends took the lunch board which was $45 and advertised for two people, but the portion was actually for one person! A few scrambled eggs, some walnuts, a little ham and grated cheese and veggie paté, in addition to the famous homemade bread which was compact, it was quite ridiculous for the price but hey, an anecdote. The service was OK but clearly lacked experience. The building is beautiful!

What a great little discovery in Trois-Rivières. Small, unpretentious restaurant but which offers excellent Gazpacho and succulent crepes served by Coralie (to whom we wish every success in her studies in the city). Parking: Rue Bonaventure there was room at noon on a Tuesday.

A place with an extraordinary atmosphere. It is a true haven of peace, bright, calm and where you eat very well! During our visit we had the carrot soup of the day as a starter, then the dish of the day: a ham and cheese pancake (replaced with egg for vegetarians) and finally a chômeur pudding for dessert. We had a blast! I highly recommend!

Ce serait péché de ne pas y aller. Le sacristain est au coeur de notre estomac et du centre-ville trifluvien pour se délecter, prendre le temps de vivre dans une ambiance différente, avec une nourriture légère recherchée et avec une qualité de clients recherchant une expérience pour figer le temps. Amen-z-en des plats du sacristain...sacristi !

Tartiflette and cheese crepe from the local cheese shop! Super good! Brunch includes for $20 (for the most expensive menu) a coffee (or other hot drink), a very good tartiflette (or savory or sweet crepe), a smoothie and a small dessert! The waitress is super nice! Best value for money in Trois-Rivières!

Charming and warm bistro-style restaurant where they serve good, unpretentious, simple meals. The welcome and service are very good. The atmosphere is warm. Excellent value for money. I will definitely return.

December 23, 2023

We had reservations for 15 people and when we arrived, the restaurant was closed and no one notified us. Big lack of respect and professionalism. Did you know that its not easy to change plans with 15 people during the festival.

December 23, 2023

Reservation not respected we bumped our noses on the door no return call we had to find another restaurant which could accommodate 14 people THANK YOU LE BRASIER FOR WELCOME US

December 23, 2023

Very very disappointing, non-compliance with reservation, arrival at a closed door without notice, this is unacceptable! Even when faced with the unexpected, a company does not leave its customers in the impasse without a word, frankly very weak on their part.

Discovered by chance, for a small stop on the road. The place is really beautiful inside. We only had a matcha latte, so I cant give opinions on the food. Certainly the owner who served us was a lovely and very sweet person, and obviously the matcha latte was very good.

Very very disappointed Having seen the rating of 4.4 on Google we ate at the Sacristan. But neither the dishes, nor the service, nor the price were good... The dishes were cold, tasteless and lacked salt. We were still hungry afterwards. The waitress was not competent or friendly either The beer is served at a price of $10, which seems exaggerated to us. In short, we do not recommend.

We went there because it was recommended in the Routard but it was quite disappointing. We ordered the sharing menu thinking it was brunch. It actually consisted of a charcuterie and cheese board, with seeds and a few unfortunate slices of bread. The quantity was small and it looked like it was a board bought at the supermarket, for which we paid a high price. The service was ordinary. The waitress was idle when we arrived and couldnt wait for us to leave. Other customers complained about the burnt coffee they were served... In short, we expected much better for the price!

Ashamed to continue to ask for the vaccination passport when studies show that it has no impact AND that it is suspended.

Local Guide
December 23, 2022

A restaurant which does not respect citizens and which continues to segregate citizens. To be banned in our society.

December 23, 2022

The restaurant owner wishes to have only VACCINED people inside his establishment. Even if the vaccination passport is no longer required.

Very disappointed, fresh food however nothing has any taste, dry chicken, hairs in the sandwich (2). Long and very expensive service for a lunch menu which includes water and celery soup and a slice of reheated pizza. 25 + taxes + tip. Beautiful place with character, however their entire menu concept needs to be reviewed.

Service was very friendly but the food took a long time to arrive (wasnt particularly busy either). Portions were small and of decent quality.

December 23, 2021

We were greeted by the owner (or chef?) who came out of the kitchen WITHOUT a mask. When he saw us take out our cell phones, he said to us in an ultra-sarcastic tone: Booooo, I guess you want to show me your QR code? It makes me laugh how proud you are to take out your QR codes. Well, congratulations for your beautiful code! » He did not scan our code or validate any ID as required by law. As we are not from the region and we did not have time to find another restaurant open on a Monday lunchtime, we ate on the terrace (no question of eating inside and having to endure this man again). The onion soup au gratin tasted burnt and was sweet as if they had actually put white sugar in it. The pasta was dry as if it had spent the morning in a stove. In short, a very bad experience for me and for the person who accompanied me.

A friend and I stopped at Le Sacristain when we were traveling from Montreal to Quebec City. We decided to stop at Trois-Rivieres to visit the center of the city and to have an early lunch. It is important to note that there are very few competitors for a lunch around this area of town, but that this place could make an effort to vary its menu a little more and to improve the size of its portions. Whatever was on offer was well presented and appealing, but not enough to make me want to repeat the experience.
