We arrived early & had a 10:30am reservation. While we waited we watched several groups who had arrived after us, including some who had no reservations, get seated first. We finally were seated 20 minutes later than our reservation. Granted the food & view were great.

I tried the afternoon tea service here over the weekend & it was lovely. The staff are super friendly. We arrived earlier than our reservation & they were able to fit us in earlier as well. The french macaron was a little dry & some items weren't to my tastes, but overall the service & food assortment was great. My favourite item was the scone & the raspberry blackcurrant spread for it. I was actually quite full & couldn't finish all of the sweets. Our table was right next to the window & had a beautiful view of the city line across the river. I would definitely recommend trying it out at least once.

Great breakfast option in a stunning, iconic location. For around $35 USD, you get as much food as you'd like (did not capture everything in the photo) along with drip coffee & views of the St. Lawrence River. We enjoyed everything we ate, particularly the assortment of pastries, & had a wonderful time exploring the hotel's boutiques afterwords.

Great option for a nice buffet breakfast inside the iconic Chateau Frontenac with beautiful views of the Dufferin Terrace! Service was great, buffet was plentiful with many options. It was a wonderful way to start our day of exploring Québec City!

Dec2024 Indoor terrace restaurant of the Fairmont Quebec nestled atop a prominent hillside of the city. This resto is where guests would be having their morning dinners. Holiday season was busy & bustling as guests came in droves & queues arw much the norm. The food is basic Western European style with a slant to some Canadian fare such as their ham & meat pie. They also offer some in house honey & jams. For a buffet it is standard. It is really the service that is the stat of the place. Quick, efficient & friendly, the servers are very able to handle the large crowds who gather each day to dine here. The receptionists are to be commended for their poise in managing the queues. The atmosphere is a 5 IF you find yourself in the terrace area near the windows which give you a wonderful view. Inside the interiors are understandably dated due to all the foot traffic. A good way to start the day's walking im Quebec City.
