Been here a few times & i like it, but the most recent time i came & ordered a cafe doré, they said they didn't have it anymore & they could make me a dirty chai, i asked for just a chai, to go cuz i was in a rush. they gave me a dirty chai for here. It was definitely for me because there was no one else there. Other than that i really do like the place! & I get that mistakes happen. I still recommend this to any others in vieux quebec

Walked by this cafe to order a coffee. Place looks nice & thought coffee would be great. Service was slow considering it wasn't busy & we didn't order anything complicated. First an Americano. Took 5-10 minutes & only 1 person ahead of us. Later I went & ordered a Latte - about 5 minutes too. & surprisingly both coffees were sort of cool… not sure how when it's made fresh. Flavour was good. Good roasted coffee but disappointed a bit. I know it's a chain. Maybe it's better in other locations.

Malgré que le café n'y soit pas mauvais, le service n'est pas bon du tout. Attendre 15 minutes pour un café, debout dans un coin, du pour au final qu'il n'ait jamais été mis en préparation ce n'est pas possible. Peut être un oubli mais dans tout les cas le système de service n'est pas au point, l'impression d'être dans une salle d'attente, sans sièges... Pas ce que j'attends d'un café.

Pensé q me iba a encontrar un mejor café, pero no se fue el caso y además hecho a las apuradas tirando la leche sin un poco de amor. Lo único bueno es el local porque el resto es de baja calidad.

This is a a downtown location of a very popular Quebec city chain of cafés. A very nice atmosphere, but I had better expectations given all the hype. Had a maple latté that I found mediocre in taste & in presentation. Service was below average & baristas did not seem to be very interested.
