Amazing breakfast spot! We tried it on our first day in Quebec & didn't want to go any where else after that! The staff are amazing, as are the pastries. Le Croissant Matin was my absolute favorite!

Went 2 days in a row. It's a casual atmosphere with large communal tables & plenty of seating. Pastries, quiche, chipotle chicken, roast beef sandwich were all excellent. Baguettes used for the sandwiches were amazing. Only thing I would say can be an improvement would be providing metal utensils instead of flimsy plastic ones. Hard to cut through the sandwiches. Cafe lattes were also really good.

The pastries were quite dry & staff are somewhat rude. Service is slow & the eating area looks crowded & not very clean.

lovely spot for croissants & other pastries. sandwiches are supremely overpriced but still good all things considered. chocolate croissant is okay but i've had better. the standout is the original croissant which was still good even two days after i bought it! in terms of service, the workers were mostly polite, just somewhat unorganized. the location is great & not too far from other food spots & some of the main tourist attractions.

Best Croissants in Quebec. We had one with ham & cheese. Loverly, tasty pastries. Order at the counter. Be sure & look at the written/ picture menu at regiter, it is not obvious everything they offer. If you don't speak French, look at menu. Friendly staff speak English. Outstanding quick lunch.

Just enjoy how the pastries look on the shelves. They look amazing. We bought at least 6 different items ,- found the pastry to be low on flavor, not light & fluffy, but tough & difficult to bite & chew. Regret purchase rather than feeling good about indulgance. Bottle water was cold & refreshing.

The pastries are pretty good, but you need to reheat them first to soften that butter. If you eat them cold, it's super hard & dry. The drinks here are absolutely horrible. We tried 4 of them. The place is also super dirty, no one comes out to clean. Every table has crumbs & sticky stains all over, the garbage cans were overflowing with garbage, while there were constantly at least 2 employees behind the counter just chilling. Their washrooms are also super weird. You have to go up a set of stairs which probably leads you to another building. It's a super long walk.
