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.

Wow. That's all I can say. This is the most unique & tasty restaurant I've ever tried , having travelled to most major cities in Canada. The service was 10/10, our server was so attentive, funny & kind. Explained everything really well. The price to portion ratio is great, very reasonable portions for the mains. Nice relaxing ambiance. Drinks were carefully crafted, same with the food. We tried the old fashioned, negroni, non alcoholic spritz, chicken & the catch of the day. Just a perfect experience overall. Thank you.

Une expérience parfaite. En tant que français nous cherchions un restaurant de bonne qualité avec des saveurs originales & nos palais ont effectivement réussi à être surpris. De plus le rapport qualité prix était au-delà du raisonnable. Concernant le service rien à redire également, on vous explique chaque plat avec précision, on vous ressert de l'eau régulièrement etc. Une très belle soirée dans une ambiance cosy & sans prétention. Nous reviendrons très certainement si nous sommes de passage à Québec.

This was by far the best dining experience I had while in Quebec City. I got in the afternoon before it got too busy at dinner so it was nice & quiet. The atmosphere of this place is unmatched, even the toilets were super cool & showed the history!
My server was great as well & if it weren't for his recommendation I wouldn't have had such a great experience.
First I got homemade bread, classic French entree, & it was so warm, fluffy & nice (& dangerous), with the truffle butter being very earthy.
But the star of the show was the blood pudding, something I've never had, with escargot & potato. This elevated dish had so many components, from the egg yolk on the potato adding slight sourness, but the potato being so creamy with a great mouth feel. The mushroom veal sauce added a nice moistness to the whole dish & was very strong. The Parm elevated the snails which nice & tender a lot. But the blood pudding sounds weird but was so warm, & moist with steam coming right out. There were little onions inside that added to the aromatics & texture. The flavours were unique, complex & rich. The dish was also so beautiful I almost didn't want to eat it.

Overall the value for this place is crazy, you get an amazing French meal for a reasonable price. If you visit Quebec City, go here. The locals are so lucky to have this.

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
