| - Le Fripon is an all-around middling choice. It was starting to rain in Old Montreal, and there was a cute hostess here, so we decided it was time to stop for lunch.
The food was average... they had a wide variety of menu choices, but no real specialty, so nothing was great, nothing was really bad. The pizza on a baguette looked more like a cheese-sandwich to me... I guess it just depends on if you eat it open-faced? Also, the croque-monsieur looked exactly like the pizza, except for the added ham. Our waitress was nice, but a little inattentive. When we asked another waiter for something, he told us that "our waitress could help us" (in other words, "not my problem")... that was disappointing.
Despite these, the patio was a nice place to sit, even during the midday showers today, the TV in the bar had ESPN on, and the full bar had a *huge* selection of beers from around the world, so I'll give it three stars.
