This is great breakfast place to try some of the Quebec local food, they have some customised menu for the travellers too, we arrived here around 10 am, this place gets crowded very fast, we had to wait outside for 15 mins & got seated in the balcony, we loved the ambience & decor, food wise we tried some local food in menu like shepherds pie & one more Quebec style pie, we were not great fans for it, we also ordered some American breakfast fast & that came very good, the eggs Benedict is the must try at this place. The coffee & drinks were too good, would highly recommended this place & if you not big fan of trying new dishes, I recommend to stay with the usual's.
Dont listen to the handful of bad reviews...we almost did, & almost missed out on an awesome breakfast, excellent service & a vibrant atmosphere. Eggs benny tres magnifique! Line up to get in but so worth it!
A refreshing family & pocket book friendly restaurant in Old Quebec City open for breakfast & dinner. Diner with a Québécois twist. For example, good old fashioned breakfast plates with a slice of tortière (Quebec meat pie). Bottomless cups of coffee. Thick cut toast ! Generous portions. Very friendly staff (they also speak English). Nice patio in the good weather (not dog friendly in keeping with Quebec law). Great value for money especially compared to area restaurants which tend to touristy. Go early on weekends. Lineups start fairly early on.
Came for breakfast & my overall review is that it was just okay. Nothing really special about it. It's just a standard breakfast place. We got seated quickly, as it was just 2 of us. Any groups of 3+ people were waiting for a very long time. Once seated, we waited for quite some time before flagging someone down & asking to see a menu. Menu items are pretty standard for a breakfast place. Eggs, omelettes, benedict's, combos, etc. we got the Benedict & one of the breakfast combos. The benedict was not bad. Everything was cooked well, & tasted good. The breakfast combo was quite simple, with nothing really standing out. A few small eggs, a few small slices of bacon/sausage, some potatoes, & some meat pie, which was just alright. If we could rate individual menu items, we would give the coffee a 1 star. We were seated outside, where the tables were quite narrow. Not a lot of room, but it was nice to have fresh air. Prices were the best part of this meal. For the location, a $15-$20 breakfast was a great deal. However, we will not be coming back. We unfortunately did not research other breakfast places, & walked around aimlessly looking for breakfast. This location was the only breakfast place with reasonable prices that had available seating.
Very cozy place with cheap, good, big portions. Reminds me of if your grandma made you a plate of (what I assume is traditional) Quebecoise thanksgiving foods. You will not leave hungry. Big menu with lots of options for all-day breakfast to poutines & sandwiches & etc. Every meal must end with their tarte au sucre (sugar pie). My new favorite dessert.
