spent a great afternoon there with kids! It is a big field so even when there were lots of people you can't really feel it. There are many small playgrounds between the trees which is cute. A large variety of tree and very tasty prices are affordable. 3$ entry + 15$(10lb) or 25$ (20lb). The donuts are delicious and worth the wait. One thing is that I didn't see any ladders near the trees :( and there were lots of apples unreachable but would definitely recommend :)

"text": "Very lovely place with beautiful gardens and tasty products. Unfortunately, their bistro didn't work 3 of 4 times we came, and we were really disappointed every time. They had some snacks and pastries to have a bite in the shop, but this is not what we wanted as we made a long way there and wanted to spend a full day. I still don't really understand how their schedule works:(",

"text": "We've been going here on and off for years. Unfortunately, although the grounds are still very lively, the sales aspect of the place has become too unwelcoming. One can't help but feel being taken for granted. This is what happens when a place gets too popular. Also, this year, we were excited about trying their new so-called 'Bistro' which turned out to be a disappointment. Although the place has succeeded in the atmosphere, the eatery was not the experience we were expecting. Not only was there a very limited menu, we were shocked to find out that a cafeteria style meal was being offered. Off we went to our tables with brown bags and McDonald style boxes. In all fairness, we did find our selections to be tasty, however, the high prices are really not justified. A note about the popular apple donuts: no apple to be found! Very doughy and not flavorful at all. Sorry. We can only hope that this newest Bistro addition will ameliorate with time. For now, we will be bringing our business elsewhere.",

"text": "We took full advantage of a beautiful day to enjoy a picnic among the bloomed apple trees at @domainelafrance. The whimsical allure of the picture perfect landscape makes for a great outing with or without actual apple picking. Why? Because on top of the beautiful Orchard and being located just 35 minutes from Montreal, they also have many other products for sale year round. We tried and very much enjoyed their sparkling cherry cider and limoncello, their apple donuts and bread and we will certainly be back for a bottle of their brandy based orange liqueur which we sampled as well!",
