La palette de dégustations de bière était délicieuse. Les choix étaient parfaits pour nos goûts. Cependant, j'ai trouvé que tout était cher, surtout pour des burgers très ordinaires. Les frites étaient froides.
Super terrasse, une belle journée ensoleillée pendant les terrasses urbaines. Bon service, la bière était bonne & la nourriture correcte. Léger manque de variété au niveau de la nourriture pour moi mais beaucoup de choix de bières & de cocktails. Notre déception est que la serveuse qui était bien présente pendant notre repas, a disparue a la fin & ça nous a pris facilement une demie heure avant de recevoir notre facture.
Extrêmement bon, service impeccable, un peu d'attente, mais on a été avisé d'un groupe de 25 au préalable, donc aucun problème! Sans oublié la bière ! 5/5, 10/10 !

Le service est beeeeaaaaaaucoup trop lent. 1h avant de recevoir un burger & un tartare. Le tartare était en fait du boeuf haché...la serveuse ne pouvait pas expliquer correctement le menu.
Sympathique terrasse sur la rue St-Germain qui devient piétonnière pour la saison estivale.
Ce fût un bel après-midi ensoleillé &
la serveuse Annick était super gentille & nous avons vraiment passé du bon temps ! 😀
Was looking for a local craft experience for my first time in Rimouski. We picked La Baraque because they had an awesome looking menu. We love the fact that the street was closed down for a pedestrian walkway & we could hear music playing. The vibe was good. When we got there, we were asked if we were there to eat or drink & we said both & were also immediately informed it was an hour wait for burgers. We were told other things would come out faster- no problem- I wasn't committed to the burgers.
We were seated at about 8:40. It took until 8:54 before we were even acknowledged at the table. We asked to see the menu for beers & were told to scan the QR. When I mentioned that it was too faded to scan we were told we could go up & look at the menu by the bar. No problem. We took a picture & when we realized 4 were from Pit Caribou, we ordered 3 flights with the remaining 12 options as we'd been to Pit Caribou yesterday (outstanding experience btw). It was 9:16 by the time our drinks arrived. The place was busy but not all the tables were full. We asked at the time of ordering (9:07pm) if it was still an hour for burgers. We were told 40 minutes but that others things would come out much faster. We opted tor the Mac fries & after asking if the fish was fresh & being told yes, a fish & chips. The food came out at 9:44pm. 3 minutes faster than ordering a burger.
The Mac fries were dead ass cold. The bottom of the basket had a bit of mild warmth, but it had sat for a long time. The fish in the fish & chips were dark, as were the fries. Like when the oil hasn't been filtered or refreshed nearly often enough.
At this point I was done. I sent my fries back & asked if the manager was in & was told the one of the owners was in. He refused to come out to speak to us. But we did see him come out of the kitchen & head to the patio purposely avoiding us. The server gave the excuse he doesn't speak English well. My travelling companion is francophone even though you can't tell when she speaks English.
I have travelled over 200 craft breweries between Ontario, Quebec, PEI, Newfoundland, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina & Florida. I live in the Niagara region. I know busy & I know tourism. This was an overall extremely poor experience capped off by an owner who refused to speak with us & will, undoubtedly based on other reviews, make excuses. The server tried. He apologized, he comped one flight & my fries.
So, in a 10 day journey that included brewery visits in Magog, Coaticook, Sherbrooke, Windsor, & the Lévis areas, we are left on the lowest of possible lows.
Le staff est gentil & souriant, mais le service est TERRIBLE. Nous avons attendu 1h30 pour avoir notre assiette. L'excuse: un gros groupe de 40 est arrivé juste avant nous. La moindre des choses auraient été de nous avertir que ça serait long. Plusieurs tables vivaient la même frustration que nous.
La sélection de bières est intéressante.
La nourriture est correcte. Ma conjointe a pris un grill cheese: il a été fait très rapidement, le fromage n'était même pas un peu fondu. J'ai pris un burger qui promettait une sauce qui était pratiquement inexistante, il n'était pas mauvais mais très sec. Les frites sont très poivrés. Quand une table comprend des enfants, il faudrait avertir.
Bref, je ne recommande absolument pas, surtout un soir où il y a achalandage.
