Good choice of food, pastries, BLTs etc Buzzy fun atmosphere Terrible coffee. Stuck in the past with their own strict ideas of espresso to milk ratios. All milk frothed as much as possible & all froth in your cup like it or not. Thirty years ago in Calgary they caught on to flat whites.

The cafe has its ups & downs. The food was just okay, but the pastries were quite good, & the coffee was excellent. However, our experience was marred by a frustrating mix-up. We ordered chocolate croissants, but they gave us plain ones instead. After returning them twice, we were finally told they were out of chocolate croissants. It was a disappointing experience that could have been easily avoided with better communication. While the coffee & pastries were highlights, the service needs improvement.

Although there can be long lines, it does go by fast. The pastries are amazing but pricey. The coffee is delish. Some indoor seating & outdoor patio when it's not raining. I think this is a chain cafe as I saw more than one.

During my recent visit to Café La Maison Smith in Quebec City, I was absolutely delighted by the culinary experience. This vibrant & trendy café, with its enticing aroma of freshly brewed coffee, offers a cozy & welcoming atmosphere that instantly draws you in. What made the visit even more special was the dog-friendly patio, where my dog Lucky could join us. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the hot chocolate. I've had my fair share of hot chocolates, but this one stands out as the best ever. It's perfectly sweet & creamy, without that watered-down taste that you often get elsewhere. Each sip was a comforting embrace of rich, velvety chocolate. We also sampled a variety of pastries, starting with the chocolate croissant. It was just right-not overly sweet & filled with a generous amount of chocolate that made each bite heavenly. The croissant itself was flaky & buttery, adding to the overall satisfaction. The star of the show, however, was the choco framboise pastry. This delightful treat offered a subtle strawberry flavor that was perfectly balanced with the rich chocolate. The pastry was wonderfully flaky & soft, making it a textural delight with every bite. It was an exquisite combination of flavors that left a lasting impression. In addition to the outstanding food & drinks, the staff were friendly & attentive, enhancing the overall experience. Whether you're a local or a visitor to Quebec City, Café La Maison Smith is a must-visit spot for anyone who appreciates quality pastries, exceptional hot chocolate, & a welcoming atmosphere. I can't wait to return for another round of these delightful treats!

The pastries were very delicious. But we were disappointed by the cappuccino. It tasted watery. I would definitely go there again to get croissants but would pick up my coffee somewhere else.

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.
