About

Behind a closed door and opaque curtains, you enter the dreamlike universe of jjacques, a space disconnected from time where the bar and kitchen unite to offer a unique experience. For one evening, let yourself be carried away by the energy that pervades it, enveloped by colors, textures, and materials, and savor the present moment. Come and enjoy an intimate and sensory pleasure-filled moment.

Is jjacques a restaurant, an oyster bar, or a cocktail bar? It's up to you to decide.

The cuisine is centered around sharing, focused on seafood and comprised of small dishes, but not neglecting fine cuts of meat and seasonal products. To fully experience it, take the time to savor one of our enticing seafood towers.

The cocktail menu, themed around travel, offers you around twenty original cocktails, both with and without alcohol, as well as many elegantly executed classics. The wine cellar hosts both classic fine wines and little treasures in nature. The bar shelves are home to the finest available spirits.

Named in Canada's 100 Best as one of the top 50 bars in the country since 2022 and holding the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence, jjacques promises you an extraordinary evening. Reservations are highly recommended.

JJacques is an amazing hole-in-the-wall speakeasy tucked away in Lower Québec City. The atmosphere is warm & inviting, highlighted by a long bar & an impressive back bar that showcases an outstanding selection of spirits. The servers are friendly, attentive, & fully bilingual, making everyone feel welcome. The cocktail menu is exceptional, featuring creative, expertly crafted drinks that rival those of much larger establishments. Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast or simply looking for a unique night out, JJacques is a hidden gem that's well worth discovering.

Wish I was able to spend more time here but we came on Valentines day with no reservations so we were able to get in for a few minutes before the scheduled party was due to show. We had oysters & cocktails & both were 10/10

drinks are really good - but the oysters are the best oysters i've ever had in my life. I literally went back to back days just for the oysters. Absolute must

The oysters were amazing & so fresh. We had Silver monk, À la Lousiana, Tokyo drift & bicycle thief which were all amazing. Everything was so worth the price & definitely worth the hype of being the top 10 bars in Canada

This speakeasy was amazing. Alexandra (Alex) made our dining experience with her knowledge & attentive nature wonderful. The baked whole fish & oysters were delicious & well worth the visit.
