Sir John Brewing co. — Restaurant in Lachute

Visited on October 12, 2019, in the afternoon. It has been just over a decade since the only brewery of any kind in this town, Les Brasseurs Qui Fument, was closed, so it's a very re welcome addition to the Laurentien beer scene.

Overall, we enjoyed the meal, but the service experience was frustrating. I’d recommend double-checking your bill before paying. This place has a lot of potential, but they definitely need more staff and better support...

Pretty terrace, one of the best in the area. Inside is also quaint; I like what they have done with this historical building. Always have enjoyed their beer although it's sometimes a hit or miss. If you like NEIPA and sours, you will find something you like. Food is mostly good. We loved the fries, so crunchy and served with a truffle mayo. Delicious. The pizzas are decent. Nice crust. On the other end, the burger is meh. Entrees change constantly, sometimes for the best and other times... Not so much. Bit still, on a nice day, you cannot beat...
