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.

Mention spéciale pour la serveuse qui a été excellente du début à la fin, malheureusement je ne me souviens plus de son prénom, mais il m'a semblé que c'était une française.
Elle a été au top !

Je connaissais déjà chez Muffy pour y avoir expérimenté un brunch & il y a longtemps que j'attendais une occasion pour aussi aller à l'Artefact. Une première rencontre, un café, un dessert... Mon accompagnatrice & moi-même avons tout apprécié. Le décor, l'ambiance calme & feutrée, le dessert original & savoureux, le service attentioné. Nous recommandons & reviendrons!

We went here specifically for the hot chocolate. Everywhere I read had this bar as the best hot chocolate in Quebec City. Yes, I am an adult, but I really wanted to indulge. I LOVED IT!!! I also loved that my husband could have an "adult" beverage since it is a bar. We were seated in a quite corner right next to the fireplace & it was so quaint.

The two servers were friendly & professional-we sat by a fireplace & had amazing drinks (whisky sour & cosmopolitan) & the burger & fries. First stop in Quebec after driving from Montreal & was the perfect stop! I highly recommend.

Disappointed all around. Lackluster at best, sadly.
