We went around noon on a Saturday & there was a bit of wait at the door & for food. Did not mind this as music was great, decor was super cute, & drinks were delicious. Dirty chai was super yummy. Americano came with a frothed milk sidecar!! Staff were kind, competent, & bilingual. Food was absolutely effing phenomenal - one of the very most fun, unique & well-prepared brunch I've had. Prices are pretty awesome in my opinion & our party of two shared 4 dishes. Definitely gonna try to make shakshuka at home. Loved it ❤️❤️

C'est LA place à Québec pour une ambiance de Noël over the top, sans aucune gêne & sans aucune restriction! La déco, la verrerie... tout y est! Le service est adorable, l'ambiance chaleureuse, & la carte des cocktails de saison est très sympathique -- quoique tous les drinks soient plutôt dans le sucré, voire très sucré. Les cocktails normaux sont disponibles aussi ; mon Negroni était très bon. Point positif : la « boule de neige » en guise de gros glaçon. Mais il était lui aussi un peu plus sucré que je ne l'aurais préféré. Une adresse à garder en tête!

Awesome place. Went for breakfast. Had the turkish eggs, pesto toast & salmon bagel. Was creative, flavourful & filling. Love the small & well priced portions so you can try a few. Drinks were amazing. Our server fred was wonderful- he had lovely energy. Thanks again!
