About

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.

We stumbled upon this place for brunch, & had our best breakfast of the trip while getting to sit outside & enjoy the atmosphere of the street. The Carrot Cake Pain Perdu was to die for, & the whole menu was very fairly priced. The Caesar play on chicken & waffles was extremely unique & delicious. What a treat for our final day in Québec City!

Came here for breakfast & was not disappointed. The special menu with local & French inspiration was vegetarian-friendly & so tasty! We got the the vegetable tarte tatin & the eggs benedict, both were a hit. This is a nice elevated option for breakfast.

Very disappointed in our breakfast experience.
First we show up at 9:30am & there are No other customers?
I ordered a very interesting Eggs Benedict that came only with two eggs on an English muffin & a lukewarm warm red beet sauce for $20. A small bowl of potatoes $5.50 & a small coffee $4.50 & No refill offered.
My friend ordered the One egg breakfast that came with cold white ham, 3 potatoes , & toast $15.00 plus $4.50 for tea & No refill offered.
At the end breakfast was very underwhelming, waitress cashed us out & disappeared behind the bar counter never to be seen again.
We left the restaurant & there was still no other customers?

All three dishes were tasty with interesting & effective flavour profiles. The coffee was really good. Highly recommend for breakfast

The atmosphere was lively but not too loud

For the La Totale (big breakfast) the sausage was good, the jam was amazing, the potatoes were good, the ham was ok, bacon was meh & the toast half was great & half a little burned

The food & ambience are excellent & unique, but the staff were exceptional. This is the first time I have heard friends who are trying to practice French asked if they would like their service in French or English, as opposed to switching to English as soon as some difficulty or English intonation is noted. The gentleman, whose name unfortunately escapes me, providing service for Saturday brunch did this & absolutely made their day by doing a full run down of the menu in French & continuing to work with them in French, even if it took a little longer. This was a memorably good meal & a place I can wholeheartedly recommend.

Brunch & breakfast food itself was great. The menu is quite unique - I can't say I've had a beet based eggs Benedict before, but it was great!

A wonderful breakfast. We stumbled upon Le Hobbit on a previous trip to Québec City, but prioritized visiting here when we returned to Québec.

The food is delicious & creative. The coffee is also excellent. We found the service to also be very good. Given the quality of everything, the value is absolutely outstanding

Highly recommend!

Absolutely stunning. Came here for breakfast from out west while on a business trip. It was the coziest, warmest little restaurant with amazing staff, incredible food & that beautiful traditional French culture. 50 years this place has been running & the experience shows. I will be back.

Stumbled across this on a recent visit to the city & was really blown away. One of the best breakfasts I've had in recent memory. Service was excellent as well.
