About us

The great story of a small bistro... Like a treasure buried in the heart of Faubourg St-Jean, a really well-kept secret ... the story of The Hobbit. This small, unpretentious bistro, is a reflection of the character of Tolkien, it carries with it the greatness of a story whose echo is still heard today at the cafe. Over time, it became the place where culinary delights come together in an ambiance worthy of a warm and cozy home. But beware, behind that familiar face, between the stones of this old house lurk ghosts that give The Hobbit that "je ne sais quoi" and make it a place apart from all others.

A wonderful discovery in town! We went as 2 adults & 1 child & the service was excellent from start to finish - very attentive & welcoming with our little one.
To start we had the Soup of the day & the Focaccia maison & beurre composé with a cappuccino - all delicious.
I ordered the Gaufres & poulet frit & it was wonderful! Perfectly crispy, juicy & very flavorful. Highly recommend it.
Fernando ordered the Donair à la Halifax. It was our least favorite, not because it was bad at all, but because of the quite strong lamb flavor. Anyone who loves lamb will love it! We were just trying something different this time, it's just not to our personal taste.

Le Hobbit is my favorite restaurant so far on my stay in Québec. I love Tolkien's worlds, but if that's not your interest don't worry, the space is well designed & thoughtful with indoor & outdoor seating. I am only English speaking & Le Hobbit was able to easily accommodate me.

The dishes were fun, innovative & delicious. I had tried many new things & enjoyed them all.

Weekend morning was quite busy but they had room for my wife & I. Monday morning I arrived shortly after open & it was a nice quiet place to enjoy a breakfast, wonderful espresso & a great start to the day. You won't just get breakfast, every component is dialed up to 11.

Staff were knowledgeable & friendly. I highly recommend you try something new at Le Hobbit.

Le pourquoi je n'ai pas donné 5 étoiles à la nourriture est simplement parce que les toasts du croque madame & les muffins anglais des oeufs bénédictine étaient brûlés. Sinon le tout était excellent & les patates sont exceptionnelles.

Locale molto carino con tavoli anche in esterno, servizio informale e cameriere simpatico. Sono famosi per la zuppa di cipolle che NON servono più da 6 anni , CIbo inaccettabile annegato nella panna senza nessun sapore . Non consigliabile .

I don't think I'll be returning if the cleanliness issue isn't addressed.

Great experience food was fantastic & unique. Sebastian went above & beyond with our 3 year old. I do have to say the Smug is my favorite drink of the trip.

Nous avons eu une merveilleuse expérience au Hobbit! C'était une décision de dernière minute alors nous avons dû attendre qu'une table se libère. Heureusement, le personnel est à son affaire & on a pu nous dire exactement à quelle heure revenir. Nous avons partagé la mousse de foie gras en entrée, puis les catavelli faits main (qui changent de saveur souvent) & boudin. La sauce des pâtes était crémeuse à souhaits & le sabayon de fromage Louis d'Or était une excellente addition. Le boudin fond dans la bouche & les accompagnements changent aussi selon la journée. Je suis tombé sur le boudin cuit façon yakitori, avec sashimi de thon & piments lactofermentés. Tout était de?licieux & s'agençait très bien, c'était la première fois que je mangeais du boudin noir & j'y retournerai certainement. Les prix sont plutôt raisonnables vu la qualité des plats. Le service était un peu lent mais excellent, les serveurs sont tous très aimables & ils contribuent à une ambiance agréable & décontractée. Notre serveur Sébastien nous a bien fait rire, & connaissait très bien le menu. Ils nous ont même offert le dessert, qui était délicieux aussi! Nous sommes partis heureux & satisfaits, & nous reviendrons goûter les autres plats, c'est certain.
