I have always loved this restaurant, which was around long before I lived in QUEBEC in the'80's. We visited today & had the nicest waitress. The chef whipped up our party's fantastic crêpes so quickly & they were all delicious. Sad to say, the custom of having the waitresses dress in traditional attire ended in 2020, but the little restaurant still had a quaint atmosphere.
Satisfying food. I ordered a savory crepe for meal, the portion & flavoring were just right. I was also delighted to find out I could order a small size sweet crepe for dessert! So I got a halzenut chocolate + ice cream crepe, very good too!
We went here in October 2022, I know, late for the review, but honestly I couldn't NOT write a review -- We LOVED it. Very kid friendly, no on-site parking (but really, what is...) but easy to find, & HIGHLY recommend. I wish we ate here twice! Huge menu, sweet, savoury, delicious soups, amazing crepes. & great prices!! We were a party of 6 & pleasantly surprised once the bill came. I loved how we could see the great staff making our crepes as we sat. Oh man, I'd go back just to eat here again!

Tout d'abord, le service est très bien mais gros problème sur l'ensemble. Quelle honte de s'appeler "au petit coin breton" lorsque les crêpes sont TRÈS loin d'être bretonne. Pas de cidre breton, & des crêpes soit disant au sarrasin. Nos plats était bourré de fromage au point qu'on n'avait plus faim pour le dessert mais qu'on avait plutôt la nausée, il faudrait revoir la stratégie de vente. Très déçu de ce restaurant qui se dit breton.
Belle petite découverte dans le Vieux Québec. Un petit resto accueillant où l'on peut rencontrer autant de touristes que des habitués. Le décor, le service & le set up (les cuisiniers qui préparent nos mets sont à la vue) font de cette place un endroit au feeling familier. Que dire de la nourriture, délicieuse! Mets aux goûts métissés de crêpes & cabane à sucre.
Great experience food was great, we loved our crepes. Our server was so nice & cheerful & attentive . & this place has nice & warm ambiance. definitely recommend it. be advised. it's relatively small establishment, so might have to stand in line but definitely worth it
J'ai commandé une crêpe à la pomme caramélisée , & j'ai eu une crêpe à la poire avec poires sorties de la boîte de sirop ... Crêpes trop cuites pour mes parents , & un cidre sans bulle .... Salle de restauration un peu triste ... 1 point en moin pour la Bretagne
Beau petit restaurant rustique, service courtois & jovial. Par contre j'ai été déçu par la crêpe de sarrasin, elle n'était pas 100% sarrasin, la crêpe n'avait ni la texture ni le goût du sarrasin, très décevant quand on aime particulièrement le goût & la texture de cette excellente céréale.
