Review Summary

Place Dufferin offers a memorable dining experience characterized by its iconic location and stunning views of the St. Lawrence River and Dufferin Terrace. Many guests praise the impeccable, friendly service and the vast variety offered at the breakfast buffet, which serves as a highlight for families and visitors alike. While opinions on the food quality range from outstanding to average, the afternoon tea and breakfast selections are frequently recommended for those seeking an elegant atmosphere. Although some diners find the pricing to be on the higher side, the overall consensus is that the picturesque setting and professional staff make it a worthwhile destination to experience at least once.

This place is amazingly beautiful & elegant. The staff was super friendly & very helpful. The food was just okay. The buffet food wasn't great but you get a lot of it! The omelet station didn't do a great job of cooking the vegetables before the egg was added resulting in semi cold vegetables surrounded by barely cooked eggs. Still this is a must see location even if you dont eat here.

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!

Overrated probably. Food wasn't that good at the hi tea.
Some of the pastries we got were different from what others were served. Been to many fairmonts but this was a disappointment..probably not a good chef for the hi tea sandwiches & food.

I made a reservation for a breakfast buffet at the Place Dufferin. When I arrived at the cafe, I waited for 5 minutes for my table. As I being seated, the server greeted me with my name . What a personalized service. The Buffett is a little bit pricey. I asked for the window table overlooking the promenade. What a nice morning to start in Quebec.

Buffet breakfast, was good but was expecting more? Still a good option half you want to see the inside for the Frontenac Chateau & didn't find tours available.

Service was great!
