Great spot to hang if you want a warm stop to go & have late drink including mixed drinks & cocktails & a great alternative if you're not interested in going to a loud bar. Quite a few options that are plant based & gluten free. Would definitely recommend.

We visited La Maison Smith & really liked the space ,it is big, open, & has plenty of seating options. We tried their cheesecake, which was delicious & not too sweet. They also have a good variety of savoury options & coffee to choose from. Overall, we enjoyed the vibe a lot. It's a great place to relax & take a cozy break from the cold winter weather. ☕❄?✨

We visited the Café Smith location on Saint-Jean & had two small mochas. The coffee was good & comforting, perfect for a short break while walking around Old Québec.

This is a newer branch, & the space is surprisingly large & spacious, especially compared to many cafés in the area. There's plenty of room to sit comfortably, & the overall atmosphere is calm & pleasant, making it a nice spot to relax, chat, or even work for a bit. The interior feels modern but still warm & inviting. Overall, it's a solid café option in Old Québec with a great atmosphere & plenty of space.

Stopped in mid morning & had a delightful experience. Staff was warm & friendly, helped us navigate the menu. Ambiance was spectacular & we were able to nab the window seat & just watch the world go by.
