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.

Excellent Quebecois cuisine with excellent value. Lots of classic dishes, but with inventive & well-executed riffs, using quality local ingredients. Their blood pudding apparently won awards, & I can see why - it was divine & I highly recommend it. Its name is makes it sound strange & intimidating but it truly is approachable for a general audience. The gravlax was another highlight, as well as the truffle mayo potato side dish. You cannot fault Le Hobbit on anything, they are genuinely & humbly a wonderful place to dine.

My husband & I ended up eating breakfast here twice on our recent trip because it was THAT good! Can recommend the sea urchin scrambled eggs & the ratatouille with poached egg, as well as the chicken & waffles. Excellent place with lovely service & great food.

The trout tasted like lake water & my girlfriend's duck was chewy & didn't have much taste. We had finished appetizer plates sitting on our table for over 30 minutes.

For a Michelin caliber restaurant, we were not impressed at all. Would not recommend for dinner.

Our first dinner in Quebec City was at Le Hobbit. Both the duck & trout entrees were exquisite. We enjoyed our dinner so much that 3 days later we were back! The pork & Cornish hen plates were equally delicious. Waitstaff were wonderful & professional. I highly recommend Le Hobbit for a wonderful dinner!!

Recommended by the Michelin Guide & the locals, this restaurant truly lives up to its hype. Their brunch signature dishes were delightful & flavorful. The sea urchin scrambled eggs was rich & complex. The blood pudding was smooth & creamy. The staff was incredibly friendly. Valerie, in particular, was dynamic & cheerful, which made our meal all the more memorable.

Everything was superb 👌 I had the vegetarian'lobster roll' made with mushrooms, & my hubby had halibut. Both delicious! But be aware that there is no air conditioning, the day we were there so I would recommend comfortable attire.

We went there for dinner. It was fantastic, some of the best food I've experienced.

Started with the beef tartare, 10/10 would recommend. Then we followed up with the tomahawk pork on brussel sprout salad & homemade pasta both 10/10. & to finish we tried the Before 10 chocolate macaroon with mint chocolate chip ice-cream sandwich & pana cotta/elderberry dessert both worth having.

100% would go back. Only thing I wish they had was a few more cocktails to choose from. But overall a must try spot in Quebec City!
