Cannot recommend this little place enough. World-class coffee (saying this as someone that became a coffee snob living in Melbourne), great pastries (the almond pain au chocolat is 10/10), classy interior design & music giving me the vibes!

My boyfriend & I are still raving about our experience at this coffee establishment. The coffee was some of the freshest & best tasting coffee ever. If you sit in the way it is served is also so cool down to the cups the coffee is served in. Totally recommend & hope to be back soon!

Such a cool place. We loved the design & vibe of the place as much as the great tasting coffee! The long, curve-shaped marble table top with seating for many people is a great use of space but also gives a nice flow to the place. The atmosphere is very organic with earth tones, plants, beautiful ceramic cups & chill music. It's a great place to go by yourself or connect with others. The service is warm & friendly too! We visited Quebec City from Toronto. We love the people, French culture & food of Quebec City. ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?

Yesterday we visited this café for coffee & croissants, but unfortunately our experience was disappointing.
When we sat down, the table had not been cleaned - there were two glasses of water & used napkins left behind. Even after our coffee was served, no one came to clear or clean the table, so we had to move everything ourselves.
The service felt inattentive, & the staff didn't seem welcoming. As for the coffee & croissant, they were quite average & not worth the visit.
We paid around $20 for two single espressos & one chocolate croissant, which in my opinion was not worth it at all.
Overall, it was not a pleasant experience, & I wouldn't return.
