Je recommande absolument ce restaurant. J'ai déjà d'y retourner. Le personnel est très courtois & professionnel. Le choix de Cocktails est incroyable sans parler de la nourriture wow !!
Great meal. We enjoyed the poutine to start & the cocktails were excellent. The mussels with bacon & bleu cheese sauce (plus frites) was so good. Others enjoyed the halibut with crème sauce & the French onion soup. Waiter was excellent. Good atmosphere & decor - we'll eat there again!

Saw rave reviews about La Buchette & decided to go here for dinner on the first day that we landed in Quebec. Perrine was so lovely & absolutely accommodating, & we had the best time!
We got to share the appetizers for two, which came with cocktails, & we ordered the Le Bûcheron, which was the most decadent chocolatey dessert there is!
The vibe of the restaurant is really great + they also serve a mean breakfast! Unfortunately I couldn't go back during my trip to try out the breakfast, but it's on my list whenever I do go back!
La Buchette est une expérience unique, tant pour sa cuisine que ces cocktails « signature »! Le menu est un mixte parfait de deux cultures, les plats que nous avions choisi étaient généreux & tous savoureux! L'ambiance est chaleureuse & feutrée, en bonne compagnie il est facile d'y passer quelques heures.
We came here 1.5 years ago on a food tour & came back specifically for the lions head mushroom entree, which did not disappoint! Aside from that deliciousness, all of their other food, & cocktails were great, & the service was excellent. Highly recommend, & I'll be back next year!
We had a wonderful dinner here! Our server was so friendly & lovely, & the food was absolutely delicious. We got the beef bourguignon & the tartiflette a l'origine de Charlevoix & both were excellent, but the tartiflette was one of the best dishes ever! The cocktails were fun, & the maple cookie for dessert was perfect.
Absolutely fantastic spot, great food at a reasonable price & a wide selection. They have a full bar as well with options on tap & craft cocktails. Definitely one of my favorite spots to eat in the area!

Excellent du début à la fin. J'y suis allé quelques fois déjà maintenant & à chacune de mes présences, ce fut un sans faute. Autant pour déjeuner que pour dîner ou souper, la nourriture est savoureuse & également très bien présentée. Les cocktails signatures sont également délicieux.
Mention spéciale à Océane qui offre un service qui redéfinie la perfection. Attentionnée, présente & soucieuse de chaque détails, elle assure que l'expérience de La Buchette soit impeccable du début à la fin.
A must when in Quebec! We have dined in quite a few different restaurants & absolutely loved everything here from A to Z. The staff was super welcoming & of good advice & we loved the decor & more intimate setting. We started with cocktails & were impressed by the authenticity of them (Le Duc, their own version of whiskey sour with maple syrup was really bold & simply delicious) featuring local ingredients, well balanced & each beautifully presented. The food was excellent & we loved their take on French food with a twist of Quebec, (the Boeuf Bourguignon that was slow cooked for 10 hours was a killer!) & the trout tartare had a lovey kick to it. Products are of high quality & mostly locally sourced. Would absolutely return as we really enjoyed our evening here!
It wasn't dinner time yet, so the waiter kindly asked if they could make the pasta I wanted. As expected, the Seafood Linguine was delicious & didn't disappoint me. The recommended cocktail was also very good. The service was excellent. If you come to Quebec, don't miss this restaurant!
Food was delicious & beautifully plated. Cute menus like a child's homework notebook. Rustic atmosphere with refined flavors. My only beef was that my cocktail was meh.

Toujours bien servis à la bûchette! J'y retourne souvent avec de la famille pour ses délicieux cocktails & son ambiance chaleureuse. Plus belle terrasse ensoleillée du vieux-Québec pour y prendre l'apéro!

Couple of cocktails during Happy Hour, 2 duck with potatoes, salad with the roasted peaches, goat cheese & prosciutto & the trout with corn mash & asparagus. Duck a little dry but good taste. Peach salad, trout with corn smash & potatoes accompanying the duck delicious. Drinks good- enjoyed lovely summer evening outside. Penelope our server engaging. Would go again.
La Buchette - Buvette Québécoise in Quebec City offers a cozy, Quebec chalet-style ambiance with original stone decor. They accommodate gluten intolerance & craft a healthier version of the classic McCain cake. The service is exceptional, the traditional poutine was delicious, & everyone enjoyed their food. Their breakfast sausage, stuffed with cheese, is a must-try-perfectly seasoned, juicy, & full of flavor. The charming patio is perfect for savoring local flavors & custom cocktails. A must-visit for an authentic, welcoming experience!
Great inventive cocktails & service from Charles - really nice atmosphere. I had the tartare which was very nice & the poutine foie gras which was indulgent, delicious. Well worth going for a night of drinks & food.
5/5 Stars! We had an absolutely delightful dinner experience at La Buchette! This charming restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way. The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & the staff were incredibly friendly & accommodating - especially with our kid! The menu offered a great selection of French-inspired dishes that catered to both adults & children. The standout dishes for us were the French onion soup (rich, flavorful, & perfectly caramelized) & the cheese fondue ( creamy, indulgent, & utterly addictive). The cocktails were also expertly crafted & delicious! What truly made our evening special, however, was the exceptional service. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, & went above & beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. We can't wait to return to La Buchette & experience it all again! Highly, highly recommend for families, couples, & anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. Merci, La Buchette, for a truly unforgettable evening!"
