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.

Great breakfast food gras

Very good food. The only drawback is that's probably so good, one might need reservation, even for breakfast.

One of the best breakfasts our group has ever had. Not a single note on how to improve. We got to sit by the cozy fireplace & the staff was friendly & helpful.

Le Hobbit is a one-Michelin-star restaurant (2025) conveniently located, which is why I decided to try it for dinner. I ordered two appetizers & two main courses, & overall the flavors were well balanced & very enjoyable.

The foie gras terrine with brioche, sunflower seed butter, & blueberry-lavender jam was interesting & unique. I especially loved the lavender jam, but at $14.50 for two small slices of bread, it felt overpriced & not particularly worth it.

The second appetizer, fried oysters in a homemade buffalo-style sauce with dill pickles, blue cheese & yogurt espuma, & fresh cucumber, was visually appealing & offered an unusual yet refreshing combination of flavors, though the oysters themselves were on the smaller side.

For mains, the seared catch of the day with butternut squash was excellent. Every element on the plate worked beautifully together-the fish was fresh & not fishy at all, the squash sauce was rich & comforting, & the crispy fried onions added a very satisfying texture.

The highlight of the evening was the seared duck breast. The presentation was elegant & the flavors were great; the only minor downside was that the duck was slightly chewier than expected.

Overall, Le Hobbit is definitely worth trying when visiting Quebec City. I highly recommend both their dinner & breakfast menus.

Loved this quaint little spot for breakfast! Kind, accomodating service. The food was tasty & affordable which is always a great combo. Loved the cozy, classy aesthetic as well. Will likely be my breakfast spot on the daily when I visit again!

The deviled eggs side & the blood pudding main were delicious. The breakfast old fashioned will wake you up haha
Our server was great but the host was a little abrupt. Cute spot. Wish they dug into the hobbit theme more.

Had Sunday brunch at this popular breakfast place. The standard big breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage, ham & smashed potatoes was hearty & delicious. Service was cordial & professional. A satisfying experience.
