I'm not kidding when I say - and my traveling partners agree- this was the best food and drink we put in our mouths our entire trip! Get a fondue, a couple of apps, and a beer and enjoy a wonderful meal!! We even saved room for a maple dessert - also fantastic! Come and enjoy- you won't be disappointed!!

This popular brewery was definitely worth the revisit for their high quality food and drinks, with a major perk being that it is open everyday and doesn't close between mealtimes. The Tall Man and I came during semi-off hours, first for a late lunch and later for an afternoon snack/drink. They have a large outside deck with a great view of the lake, but we opted to sit in their cozy dining room both times. We visited with baby in tow, first with a stroller and once without. The accessible entrance was not very obvious (we noticed it only after our second visit) and it was covered in snow. There are several steps leading to the porch and main entrance. The host was gracious enough to find a table that could fit a stroller next to it, but that was made easier by our off-hours visit. The staff is very friendly and most are pretty fluent in both English and French. We ordered in French the first time around, but by our second trip our language skills and brains were a bit worn out, so we were thankful our server cheerfully switched to English. They all gave us great recommendations, and everything we had was quite tasty. Think elevated brewpub than bar food. Drinks-wise, the Tall Man equally enjoyed La Pointe Merry (IPA) and La Kilt (Scotch ale). I opted for their non-alcoholic options and was happy with my Quebec-made kombucha and gin and tonic mocktail. Both came in cans or bottles, and I ended up taking the rest of my kombucha to go. Instead of ordering full entrees, we opted for a spread of small plates. The cod bites (bouchées de morue) were excellent, crisply fried with soft, flaky fish inside and a killer dipping sauce. The kiddo is just starting to eat solid foods and quite enjoyed the fish. The onion rings (nounounes rings) were also a hit. We also enjoyed the duck drumlettes (pilons de canard) and the fries (frites). Note the fries are made French style and not crispy (as opposed to what's usually served in American restaurants ironically as "French" fries). We will definitely be back! I did eat gluten on this trip as a periodic treat, but am usually gluten free. They didn't seem to have too many GF options on their menu, but I would come back to try their entrees and see if I could make it work.

After seeing the iconic Balsams, we were hungry and had the Reel Craft Pass. So we checked the brew houses and came up with Coös. Definitely the right choice. Entering the warehouse type setting, the brew mechanisms are on the left and the building's nave hosts several picnic benches , some really comfy sofas with side tables at one end, and on the other end, the service bar and kitchen. Bathrooms were at the entrance to the building and they are immaculate. The three servers on duty were charming and friendly, knowing everything about their trade and offerings. The cheerful welcome we got wars a part of the festivities. We ordered a Double Raspberry Sour - so good we had another one.... Then a Dooryard New England IPA, hoppy and aromatic. And then our last one was the Woodland Wit, a citrusy wheat beer with spices. Foodwise, we ordered the Veggie Lovers Personal Flatbread-Style Pizza, a delicious veggie pizza with a crusty base, and the Pepperoni & Burnt Haoney flatbread, delicious. We sat in their expansive outside seating area overlooking the beautiful Vermont peaks across t the river. A wonderful lunch ina spectacular place with superb brews.

Nestled right out of town, in the Industrial Complex, Coös (co-ahs) Brewing doesn't disappoint. Plenty of seating available publik-house style, with comfier accommodations around the perimeter, and additional outdoor seating to take in the beautiful Mountain views. Beer flights of 4 and 6 available, in additional to a solid 8 rotating taps in various styles. Food menu is also available if you're feeling peckish. If you're taking in the sights via side-by-side or general leaf-peeping, checking out a new brewery and getting a nice brewski doesn't hurt.

We visited after climbing the hill of Mont Saint-Gregoire and we felt like we deserve all the brew available in the pub. There is a spacious outdoor terrace, big portion of it is covered and one can safely consume a pint during rainy summer day or hide from stronger sun. The pub offers food, the menu is OK, but don't expect anything else than typical pub food with no real healthy options. Regardless we came for the beers and managed to try most of them. First you can get a taster of the eight beers available on tap. Then you can buy variety of cans for experiments at home, which we did as to celebrate Canada Day in style. Unfortunately my favorite Hazy Camper IPA was not available that day. Farnham also offers few amazing hard seltzers that are worthy trying. The staff is super nice, but a little bit slow.

The fish and chips served in a bowl were soggy, I ended up eating the fish out of the batter and left the soggy batter behind. The fries were also soggy bc of the way they decided to plate this dish. The server didn't ask / offer ketchup until we were already half way done eating. I had to ask for an extra plate just to put my ketchup on bc of the bowl format of this dish. (No mention or sight of any malt vinegar either) My bf said the burger was "okay." He wouldn't order it again. Just not worth the $80 bill for me. Disappointed to say the least. Also those metal chairs suck so much! Anyone with a behind finds them uncomfortable.

We tried to go to the Sutton Brewery but they were packed, so ended up at Dunham again. Again, the waitress was rude, non-knowledgeable and stand-offish. You have to get your own water and it took forever to get our food. The poutine was so so and again, luke warm and the cheese never melted. Again, the beer is good but that's about it. The service and the food are meh and it's WAY WAY overpriced. Our 3 piece family got 2 beers, a veggie burger and two poutines....oh and an apple juice...and with tip it was over $100 Canadian. Offensive. We will remember next time and not return again even if everything else is full. Thumbs DOWN!
