In the heart of Old Québec, Bar Artefact brings together signature cocktails and light sharing plates, in a décor where every object tells a story. Saturdays and Sundays, from 2 to 4 pm, enjoy our tea time: an assortment of sweet and savory bites.

About

Offering a glimpse into Quebec’s past, Bar Artefact is the perfect place for enjoying a light meal and signature drinks from one of the city’s most creative cocktail menus, while surrounded by artefacts preserved in time. The bar showcases relics unearthed on site during a recent excavation dig, such as the Dauphine Battery and window displays filled with objects dating back from six distinct eras in our property’s history.

Service was super slow & the staff were disorganized & taking it too easy while in a what seemed to be a busy time We came for cocktails - had one round w oysters - that was great. Cancelled our second cocktail bc service was too slow. We sat there watching servers just chatting away behind the bar. Our server was sweet & was just helping out - felt bad for her. We were likely their easiest table given we didn't eat dinner. The bar itself is beautiful within the also beautiful auberge st Antoine.

Nous avons passé un agréable moment au restaurant. Les plats étaient délicieux & les cocktails vraiment excellents. La décoration est également très jolie & originale, ce qui ajoute beaucoup de charme à l'endroit. Cependant, nous avons rencontré quelques difficultés avec le service. Bien que le restaurant ne soit pas très fréquenté ce jour-là, le service a été très lent. La serveuse venait rarement nous voir, ce qui a limité notre consommation. Aussi, les tables étant très proches les unes des autres, l'intimité était quelque peu réduite. & les voisin peuvent se mêler facilement au conversation des autres.

Both of the cod dishes were tough & a little dried out as though they spent too much time on a warming tray. The beef shoulder was tough & chewy. Our cocktails arrived after our meals were picked over. Our very nice waitress tried to make amends for the kitchen & the bar by offering free ice cream.

Cocktail bien réalisé, mais le prix n'est pas justifié à mon avis. Service plutôt lent, c'était probablement une mauvaise journée, car il n'y avait que quelques clients, & nous avons attendu très longtemps avant de pouvoir payer l'addition.
Mention spéciale à la mayonnaise à la truffe.
