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.

I tried the afternoon tea. It was amazing. I think it's worth the price. A lot of different sweets & savory treats. & the good thing is you can try more than one type of tea from white tea, green tea & black tea, there was no limit. The staff was really nice too. The service was great. I want to come back again for this afternoon tea. The atmosphere of the place was good too.

Went for afternoon tea to try something different. Food was good but the service wasn't as good. We are not tea drinker & we were asking the server to help us pick the best tea based on our preference & they honestly had no clue; they were just reading us the menu. Then the tea arrived & they didn't tell us how many minutes we had to wait before drinking it. The teas were not really good; but that might just be because we pretty much ended up picking them up randomly since server failed to make recommendations. It was $45 per person. Which would have been OK if the teas were good.

We had the most delightful lunch at the Artifact Bar & Grill. The Icelandic Cod dish with seasonal vegetables was delicious. Everything was excellent but even more so because of Emily our waitress. She took particular care in making sure we were happy with our tea selection. That may sound like a funny thing but my husband has specific taste where his tea is concerned & Emily Wall was a dear to make sure to get it prepared the way he liked it. That kind of service was very much appreciated & Emily was & is excellent with her customers. We highly recommend the Artifact Bar & Grill & when you're there ask for Emily. :-)
