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.

Très belle expérience dans l'ensemble chez Le Hobbit hier soir. Visuellement tout était superbe. Les entrées un peu petites à notre goût cependant dans la créativité au travers des mets des entrées au desserts était grandement apprécié. Quelques plats manquaient légèrement d'assaisonnement néanmoins. Le service était rapide & professionnel. Somme toute, une très belle expérience.

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.

We tried this restaurent for breakfast. They serve classical dishes with new twists. The carrot cake French toast was very unusual. Even the egg Benedict did not taste as expected. No sauce hollandaise, they use their seasonal flavors.

Of the three dishes from Le hobbit I would highly recommend the salmon tartare it blended together the perfect amount of ingredients make a remarkable taste, but above that the Smokey devilled eggs were the best overall 10/10 must have! The chicken & waffles were great too but I would more so recommend the salmon & eggs

The service was incredibly friendly & quick. I got the seaweed salmon with cucumbers, ricotta, & lovage leaves. It was so good! Filling, but still light & fresh

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!

This place is an absolute gem. Excellent, friendly, attentive service, incredible food, & a lovely atmosphere. The food was top-rate, but not your typical use-a-microscope-to-find-the-tiny-portion-your-plate sizing, so you have enough to be satisfied with your meal, & if ours were anything to go by, it'll be absolutely delicious. Just a wonderful way to wrap up a short vacation to Quebec City.

Quelle expérience incroyable!

Dès notre arrivée, tout était réuni pour passer une soirée mémorable. Chaque assiette était un véritable chef-d'oeuvre, présentée avec un souci du détail digne d'une oeuvre d'Arcimboldo. C'était presque trop beau pour être mangé… presque!
Notre serveur, dont j'ai malheureusement oublié le nom, a été exceptionnel. Attentionné, passionné & aux petits soins, il a pris le temps de nous présenter chaque plat ainsi que les accords mets-vins. Toutes les saveurs qu'il nous décrivait étaient bel & bien au rendez-vous, & chaque bouchée était une véritable explosion de goûts.

Une cuisine d'une finesse remarquable, un service impeccable & une ambiance qui rendent l'expérience tout simplement inoubliable.

Nous avons déjà hâte d'y retourner! Je recommande ce restaurant sans la moindre hésitation à tous les amateurs de gastronomie. Une adresse incontournable au coeur du Vieux-Québec.
