Une expérience absolument mémorable chez Archibald !
Dès notre arrivée, l'ambiance chaleureuse & conviviale nous a tout de suite séduits. Nous avons commencé par des calamars frits : parfaitement dorés, croustillants à l'extérieur & incroyablement frais à l'intérieur - un vrai délice !
Puis, place à la vedette du repas : la fameuse pizza Archibald. Une explosion de saveurs ! La pâte était légère & savoureuse, la garniture généreuse & parfaitement équilibrée. Chaque bouchée donnait envie de prolonger le moment encore un peu plus.
Un service attentionné, des plats délicieux & une atmosphère agréable… Archibald a su nous conquérir du début à la fin. Une adresse à recommander sans hésitation !

The beer was great, but the first bite of the Archibald Pizza was nirvana. Best bite I've had so far in Québec City, & I've had some really good food the past two days. Will be back 💯 Definitely recommend!!
If you're planning to wander around Old Quebec in the summer & want to eat here - make a reservation. Every restaurant we walked into was packed & couldn't take us, especially as a group of six.
We stumbled upon this place around 8:30 PM, hot, tired, & hangry. Luckily, we only waited 10-15 minutes before they seated us - which honestly felt like a miracle at that point.
🍽? Service:
Like many places in the area, not much English was spoken. Our server seemed exhausted & a bit cranky, but to be fair, so did the rest of the staff. It looked like they were understaffed & trying their best during a heatwave, so we cut them some slack.
🍕 Food:
• My pizza (goat cheese & prosciutto) was fine - not my fave combo, but that's on me for ordering goat cheese knowing I don't love it.
• Chicken wings were chef's kiss - crispy outside, juicy inside, no batter coating, so bonus points for being keto-friendly.
• Tuna tartare was… fine. A bit forgettable.
• Kids' pepperoni pizza had the pepperoni under the cheese - which caused some minor confusion (& a moment of childhood betrayal), but it was there!
• The kids' menu includes dessert - ours chose the brownie, & both nearly finished theirs, so I'll take that as a win.
🌡? Note on ambiance:
Even at 8:30 PM, it was scorching hot & humid, which made eating a bit uncomfortable. I'm sure the food would've felt more enjoyable in cooler weather.
It's mostly a burger/pizza place where tourists stop to grab a bite. They have a double blond beer that is excellent. We went there three times to have that beer. There are better places to eat around there.
The food was terrific, exceeded expectations - had a Burratta Salad with a pizza between 2 of us, impressed with both especially the Burratta - very flavourful. Our server was also very good, we were well looked after from the minute we arrived. We would definitely return here without exception & recommend it to friends. Also have to say for the location in Old Quebec, the prices were more than fair & didn't seem to be taking advantage of tourist traffic - prices seemed local rather than elevated.
Nous nous sommes arrêtés pour une petite faim. Marlene s'est très bien occupé de nous, elle a été parfaite. Nous avons bien aimé les nachos & la pizza Archibald. Nous avons aussi apprécié le dispositif NFC qui permet d'appeler quand nous sommes prêts à commander ou pour payer. Ce petit cube lumineux est discret, pratique & efficace. Bien vu.
La pizza au prosciutto était très bonne, mais... il n'y avait pas de prosciutto sur la pizza! C'était des cubes de jambon ou de pancetta, deux viandes moins chères. Le fish & chips était bon.
