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.

Magnifique petit restaurant avec une cuisine créative ! J'y suis allée plusieurs fois & je n'ai jamais été déçue. Les plats comme les desserts sont parfaits pour être partagés.

Quelle découverte ce petit restaurant!!! Sans réservation, on s'est installé au bar. Bien reçu par Christopher qui prépare quelques cocktails. On regarde le menu & choisissons le popcorn de ris de veau & le boudin de Grand-mère Thérèse. Sylvie nous suggère des vins au verre parfait pour apparier nos choix. & finalement Valérie nous offre le dessert que nous devons refuser mais ce n'est que partie remise. Nous avons adoré.... Repas délectable... Mémorable.... Merci! & au plaisir! 😉

We had no booking for this restaurant & was lucky to get a table for our early dinner at 5.45pm. The restaurant had a very cosy ambience with perfect lighting & background music. We were greeted warmly by our waitress Karel who introduced the 3 course menu & answered any questions on the menu. I ordered the soft shell crab to start, roast pork belly as a main & the open sesame for dessert. The starter was two pieces of soft shell crab, cooked perfectly with the right amount of flavouring accompanied by fennel cooked three ways. Very tasty & recommended if you are a fan of soft shell crab. Main was roast pork belly accompanied by Parisian gnocchi & parsnip purée. The pork belly & the sauce it was served in went extremely well with the purée & gnocchi as they balanced out the flavour of the sauce perfectly. Lastly, finished with the orange panna cotta with sesame ice cream. The flavours were intricate & very well layered inside the cake. A great way to finish our meal indeed! Both Sylvie & Karel looked after us extremely well. Service was immaculate & made our visit here at the restaurant a 5⭐️ experience! Thanks to the whole team at Le Hobbit for a wonderful meal!

Le Hobbit was one of the best meals-from start to finish-we've ever eaten. We started with two appetizers... pickled mushrooms & a dish of roasted carrots with pressed bread & lobster sauce. The presentation of the carrot dish was gorgeous but the taste blew us away. One of us ordered the fish of the day & the other a Cornish chicken. Both plates were scraped clean. Although we were pretty full, we ordered dessert simply to see how they would end such a great experience. They did not disappoint (the carrot cake was amazing!) Our waitress was friendly, warm & really fun. I highly recommend it & would make a trip to Quebec City again just for those carrots!

L'entrée de crabe carcasse molle, pas de crabe, seulement de la panure!
Prise du jour, très petit morceau de poisson! Dispendieux pour ce que nous avons eu!
Dessert très bon par contre!

Nous sommes des Français en vacances, nous avons choisi ce lieu pour dîner & l'expérience a été véritablement exceptionnelle. Tout était parfait, du vin à l'entrée, du plat aux desserts, jusqu'au délicieux pain brioché maison servi en début de repas, accompagné d'un beurre à la truffe aérien qui était un véritable régal. Cerise sur le gâteau, les prix étaient vraiment raisonnables, offrant un rapport qualité-prix imbattable.

I was in such an extravagant establishment for the first time, & they helped me choose what I liked. The young waitress was very attentive & patient, despite the fact that I called her over a hundred times to ask what each dish meant. However, there are a few remarks. 1. The food portion was too large, the meat platter runs out quickly, & then you're not eating delicacies but something unclear made of children's cereal. 2. The drink was wonderful, not having large chunks of ice is great. 3. In this dessert, there was very little ice cream, I like popcorn but this one was not airy at all, I added a photo of how the popcorn should look - all in caramel & airy.
