About

Café La Maison Smith serves as a cornerstone for premium artisanal coffee culture by emphasizing the meticulous preparation of single-origin beans. The establishment maintains a signature selection of house-baked pastries that feature traditional French techniques and locally sourced ingredients. High ceilings and exposed stone walls define the physical environment, creating an industrial atmosphere that prioritizes functional efficiency and architectural character. Patrons select from a robust menu of espresso-based beverages including lattes, cappuccinos, and flat whites crafted by trained baristas. Each buttery croissant and delicate macaron reflects a commitment to classic confectionery standards rather than modern fusion experiments. The facility supports a focus on rapid service and quality consistency, ensuring that every beverage reaches the correct extraction profile while maintaining the structural integrity of the delicate baked goods offered throughout the day.

We frequent La Maison Smith whenever we are in Quebec city. Great coffee, friendly service, tasty treats. I usually get a maple latte, because I think that's what you're supposed to do in Canada. But now that I think about it, I never see Canadians ordering one. Don't forget to say'merci'!

Loved this place, we came back a second time in the same day. The coffee is delicious & they have a great variety of flavored lattes! The chocolate muffin was a bit dry but the croissant was extraordinary! Definitely recommend.

Stopped by for breakfast & had a latte, maple latte, chocolatine, & a chicken sandwich. The food & drinks were good, nothing extraordinary, but solid for a touristy area.

The café itself is tiny but cozy, & the view is what makes it special: right in front of the church, with snowy weather & people passing by. It created a perfect winter-morning vibe, & I really enjoyed that atmosphere.

⭐ 4.3/5 - Nice spot mainly for the view & ambiance.

We ordered 2 pistachio lattes, a cheesecake & croissant. Everything was so good. One of the best lattes I've had. Would definitely come back

Delicious coffee! I tried the hot caramel latte with a chocolate croissant. The latte was nicely balanced between the caramel flavor & coffee. The coffee was nice & strong. The croissant was your average chocolate croissant you might have at a Starbucks -- nothing special but still tasty. Highly recommend getting the coffee here!

Café La Maison Smith Notre-Dame is an absolute gem. The iced salted caramel latte was perfectly balanced-smooth, rich, & not overly sweet-while the lemon tarte was bright, fresh, & beautifully presented. The space feels warm & welcoming, with staff who are genuinely kind & attentive. A wonderful spot to pause, recharge, & enjoy thoughtfully crafted food & drinks in the heart of Old Québec.

Mon copain a pris un café filtre & moi un matcha latte au lait d'avoine. On a chacun aimé le service & nos breuvages!
(Fan de matcha, notez que le goût du matcha n'est pas prononcé.)
