About us

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.

The brunch is light & flavorful. Everything is fresh, well made. We had a good meal, the sausage actually is the best part. But nothing strikes me as fancy, or screaming Michelin.

Nice little Café/restaurant with good basic foods. Mostly french influenced north american. Service was amazingly friendly & the brunch was quite good. Fresh bread smoked bacon, white ham eggs baked potatoes. Coffee was also quite good. Atmosphere is that of a european café & very cozy. visited in the late morning hours.

Such a treasure! We found it walking around Jean Baptist street nearing lunch time & angled for the brunch menu. The scrambled urchin eggs were unreal - as were the deviled eggs. So rich & complex & just fantastic. You canNOT miss the orleans spritz. Subtle gorgeous elixir that will stay in my hobbit loving heart forever! Our server Leanna (I am pretty sure that is here name) - so kind & sweet & enthusiastic. Also loved every damn song that came on. Looooved this place & the whole street. Spend a day here. & do not miss the library in the church. So cool!

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!

Leurs brunchs sont excellent. J'y suis allée une fois pour souper, le plat était un peu décevant, mais le cocktail était wow. En général, un très bon resto.

We received a lovely welcome & service from the staff, but the quality of the food was unfortunately disappointing.

For starters, we got the buffalo-style fried oysters, the pork tongue & the homemade bread with truffle butter. The bread was the best of all of them, the butter was good but only tasted like truffle & not buttery at all. The oysters' taste was buried with the strong buffalo & cheese sauce, & the pork was veeery smoky. It wasn't bad but to me none of the dishes tasted harmonious.

As for the main dishes, we got the guinea fowl with turnips, the mackerel with smoked paprika lobster bisque & the sous-vide pork filet with celeriac. All of the proteins were dry & again, the dishes were lacking harmony. Presentation wise, I was also a little disappointed, but that's just personal preference.

It's my second time here, but the first time for dinner. I'd recommend for brunch but not for dinner.
