I visited Le Refuge des Brasseurs with wife and daughter on a Saturday afternoon the first week of June. The front of the building is an open terrace with picnic table-style seating and gauzy awnings to filter the sun - but which provided no shelter at all against the rainstorm that came up just as we finished our meal. So we moved inside for dessert.

Inside was dimly lit (after being out in the sun) and large enough for a big crowd although it was pretty much just the three of us and a handful of bicyclists come in out of the rain. One friendly, courteous, all-around-excellent server easily handled things quickly and accurately.

Beer was served in either 12oz or 16oz glassware so I was only able to sample a few - a better-than-competent NEIPA, a nice more-or-less west coast-style American IPA that described itself as ‘100% québécoise, and a really remarkably excellent scotch ale brewed with maple syrup (I actually got a liter growler to take home so this may be the last lucid thing I write for a time).

The food was very good, typical brasserie fare. I had (of course) a poutine - frittes, cheese curds and fried chicken chunks smothered in both gravy and mayonnaise- so, just in case the scotch ale au sirop d'érable doesn’t kill me…

Overall, a better than average pub-like experience. Vibe was relaxed and comfortable in the mid afternoon, quality of both food and drink was very good, selection was adequate, and the service was exceptional albeit under non-challenging conditions. Recommended for certain.
