We are staying at the hotel & decided to eat here out of convenience - & what a happy surprise it turned out to be. Wonderful cooking, & lovely service. Oysters were fresh & delicious & The butcher's cut for two is a must-order. We couldn't have been happier that we stayed in for dinner.

This is a hidden gem. I looked hard to find this afternoon tea in Old Quebec. We have done the chateau Frontenac afternoon tea twice now & think this afternoon tea is much better at Bar Artefac at almost half the
cost of Chateau Frontenac Dufferin Terrace. You also have the choice of substituting coffee drinks or hot chocolate for tea. The afternoon tea doesn't hold straight laced to an British afternoon tea but rather they have made small changes for the better. Well done.

We absolutely loved our'British High Tea' at Bar Artefact. We loved that the flavors of all of the savory & sweet offerings (each one delicious) were so reflective of Quebecois flavors, from the maple to the roe & shortbread. The atmosphere & live piano music were lovely; our server was stellar, professional, considerate, & helpful from start to finish. We will always remember this time with fondness & gratitude. Proverbs 11:25--& thank you.

My family attended afternoon tea here while traveling, & as avid tea drinkers, we always try to enjoy an afternoon tea whenever we visit a new city.

Let me start with the highlights. The tea itself was excellent. The quality was outstanding, & I loved that each person could try two different varieties. The atmosphere was lovely as well. The seating was comfortable, the bar was beautiful, & a live musician performed during part of the service, which added a wonderful touch to the experience.

The service was probably the standout for us. Our server was warm, friendly, & incredibly helpful. We ended up chatting with them quite a bit, & they made the afternoon feel welcoming & relaxed.

The only reason I couldn't give five stars was the food. Nothing was bad, & everything was beautifully presented, but many of the items felt a bit understated in flavor. The scones were very simple with whipped cream, the sandwiches seemed like they could have benefited from a little more seasoning, herbs, or brightness, & while the desserts were gorgeous, their flavors didn't quite match their visual impact.

That said, I fully admit I have high standards when it comes to food & love discovering creative flavors. At $45 per person, I was hoping for a few more memorable bites that would surprise me. The overall experience was still enjoyable.
