About

IN PHOTOS (pdf)

By combining freshness and creativity, the Bistro Hortus offers you a menu rich in local and organic products. For your greatest pleasure, chef Stéphane Roth presents a menu of the “Ferme à la Table” trend. With his unique cooking style, he puts the spotlight as much on meat and fish as on vegetables, always with a view to eco-responsible cuisine. An experience combining good food, good atmosphere and good prices awaits you!

Hortus is the proud owner of two green rooftop gardens located in the heart of Vieux-Québec, right above you! Our crops are quintessential part of your meal.

Our gardens will provide some of the fruits and vegetables used in our recipes. Production being limited due to space constraint, we work closely with Quebec farmers who grow organic produce.

OUR BEES

We also own multiple beehives placed onto large strawberry fields at l’ole-d’orleans, home of our Oh Bio partner. Tree beehives are located on the rooftop of Hotel du Vieux Quebec and greatly improve the pollination of our gardens.

The importance of bees to biodiversity

Besides providing their beloved honey, bees are a fondamental part of every aspect linked to the ecosystem. Bees are the most important pollinators, close to 80%, therefore essential to flowering plants reproduction. They are also vital through food chain, considering that 35% of fruits and vegetables depend on pollination by insects

We had two great gluten-free experiences here. Once for dinner & then for lunch the next day. We had heard good things about this restaurant & that it was also dog friendly so we headed here for dinner when we arrived in Quebec. We had seats on the patio quickly with our puppy & Jour had our drinks quickly. I had a delicious gluten-free beer & my girlfriend had the french martini. We had the burger & an order of their poutine. They were amazing & we felt safe from gluten issues. The next day were had lunch. We had the verdurette, baked brie, & the grilled cheese with beef on top. Oh, & 4 Sangria to hydrate. Highly recommend!
