Temple's Sugar Camp -  Lanark,

We had a great brunch at Temple's. It was our first time there but definitely not our last! The restaurant is beautiful and we loved sitting by the fireplace. The pancakes were delicious, the coffee was excellent, and the staff was very friendly.

It seemed like the staff at this restaurant were trying to seat as many people as possible to make up for losses from the past two years. Reservations are not accepted, so it's best to arrive early to secure a table (which we did). The menu was limited, mainly focused on pancakes. The enticing photos of other options on the menu made us wish we had ordered something else. The staff was friendly, but we were served lukewarm coffee and bland pancakes that seemed rushed. After 58 minutes, a man finally came to announce a long waiting line outside the door. It felt like the rushed service was the theme of the day. We will be trying a different spot next year.

We went to this restaurant for a buffet brunch when the COVID-19 outbreak began. The staff handled all the food portioning and extra cleaning measures were in place. The food was delicious, especially the fried dishes. We would definitely return to this restaurant.

Well, it was a first, beautiful high time, in the forests, with snow on the floor, as snowflakes fell gently! what an incredibly beautiful place for a high time. the personal was amazing. they worked tired, all afternoon and evening to make sure everything has expired. without a torch and all the guests were well maintained! the hall is beautifully decorated with large windows and with hundreds of small white lights. it was cold and came in and in the position to stand the big fireplace with a drink in the hand was a bonus! the food served on every table in house style was fresh, delicious and plentiful! the dessert was a maple sugar-moose, all shaved on my table. because the waitress was not too sure if it contained lactose, my dessert was quickly transformed into fresh berry with maple syrup!

Every year, we had our favorite sugar shack place but wanted to try a new venue. Temple's surprised us in so many ways: super nice ambiance, beautiful grounds and quality food. The pleasant presentation of the varied items of their all-you-can-eat buffet was a plus....Everything was fresh, the food prepared on the premises with great care, including their home-made sausages, etc. The buffet is worth every penny and includes vegan and gluten-free options. Coffee fill-ups by friendly staff were constant and a self-serve table with Temple's maple syrup was very popular! We went on Easter Sunday, arrived early yet expected it to be busy. We were seated right away and loved the buffet so much that we just had to come back for more the following Sunday. This place rocks and the owners even take time to greet you! Temple's is a high recommend. Can't wait to come back next year!
