Un café branché qui a récemment doublé de grandeur, en plein coeur du Vieux Québec, sur le Blvd Saint-Jean. A essayer absolument !

Joli café dans la rue commerçante & les boissons & viennoiseries semblent bonnes. Le service est ok. Toutefois, les repas de midi ne sont pas convaincants. Un sandwich pita à 13 dollars canadiens sans taxes à lui seul avec une tranche de laitue, un peu de guacamole aussi peu définissable que le poulet qu'il est supposé contenir avec un mince disque de tomate dessus, puis un gâteau au fromage décongelé dont le biscuit mou baigne dans son jus, c'est bof. On était trop fatigué pour réfléchir & chercher ailleurs sur le moment. Venez plutôt pour le petit-déjeuner.

Everything about this cafe was amazing. The coffee was beyond delicious, pastries were huge & out of this world. Service was sweet & they speak English. The cafe is super cute & cozy! It was one of the few places we felt comfortable, where as other restaurants were rude when needing to speak to us in English.
