WE LOVE IT! Came back twice during our trip to Quebec. Every time their service & food was top notch.
I highly recommend their Gourmand au Caramel Salé latte! The milk is so creamy & it's not overly sweet is just perfect balance.

They have a large selection of items in their menu so honestly anyone could find something they will like, even if you're vegetarian or have dietary restrictions.

They have an amazing system & you can tell! From the moment you arrive there's someone that will assign you to a table or will tell you the wait time depending on how crowded it is. & it doesn't matter how many people there are the food always gets to your table in a timely manner & your server is always looking out if you need something or making sure everything is good.

I went there twice the same day..for brunch & supper.
Brunch was amazing , all of it, food , service , atmosphere
Supper I was given some cold fish & chips. The fish was still frozen under the breading. The server quickly went to change it & everything was ok afterwards.
The liver was extremely delicious
