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.

Had an amazing meal at Bar Artefact! Huge thank you to Lily for an equally amazing service! Felix for wonderful mocktail creations & Chefs Pascal, Max & Zico for what was a definite culinary experience! Beef flank steak, my husband said it was incredible & the gravy to die for! Our daughter had the Rock Cornish hen with BBQ sauce, I thought she was going to eat the bones it was so good! Lol All meals had delicious vegetables & herbs that came from the Auberge's farm🥰 To accommodate my low sodium, the Chef recommended the Tuna Tataki with a Green pea purée, virgin dressing with tomatoes & daisy capers.... 🥰🥰🥰 They were also able to accommodate our daughter's peanut allergy!
We ended the meal with an incredible brownie & for myself, who never likes desserts... I had a Pavlova with seasonal fruits & it was to die for!! Not too sweet & no salt! Thank you to Chef Justine for these creations! This restaurant is a definite must!

The food & atmosphere were fantastic. Distancing rules in effect didn't feel like we were giving anything up & made the dinner feel more intimate.

Would recommend to anyone visiting or from Quebec!
