These signature treats are topped with a wide array of sweet garnishes ranging from classic cinnamon and sugar to decadent chocolate spreads and fresh fruit toppings.

This establishment focuses exclusively on providing high-quality portable snacks that cater to those seeking a sugary indulgence. Patrons interact with an efficient counter service model designed to facilitate the rapid assembly of these popular fried pastries. The menu emphasizes consistent quality and traditional recipes that define this legendary sweet snack heritage across the country with every hot and freshly prepared serving.

Review Summary

Queues de castor is widely celebrated as a quintessential destination for visitors and locals alike in Old Quebec, known for its iconic fried pastries and satisfying poutines. Guests frequently praise the variety of delicious, indulgent toppings and the consistent quality of the food, which serves as a comforting treat during a stroll through the Petit Champlain district. While the establishment is highly regarded for its friendly and efficient staff who manage busy crowds with professionalism, some reviewers note that the dining area can be small and crowded, occasionally making it difficult to find a place to sit. Despite the high demand and occasional wait, most experiences are described as warm and memorable, making it a highly recommended stop for those with a sweet tooth or anyone looking for a classic Canadian snack.

The shop is located in the heart of the old city. There are two friendly twin brothers working there. They were nice & let me customize my order. I will definitely go back there whenever visiting Quebec City.

J'ai sonné la cloche
La caissiere s'en foutait
Heureusement que le monsieur dans la cuisine a vu & a applaudi & m'a demande ce que je veux
Jai commandé une patisserie + un cafe + eau
Il n'y avait que moi
Elle a pris la patisserie & elle cherchait a qui c'est! Puis elle me l'a donnée sans le cafe & l'eau que j'ai deja payés
J'ai du lui rappeler de ca !
Caissiere incompetente
Je ne recommande pas ce lieu

It was honestly some of the best tasting food I've eaten. Also some of the best service. While there was only one guy, he kept his cool whilst handling orders & cooking despite the line out the door.

Must try if you're visiting Canada, beavertails🦫 are a unique treat to have as a snack, but can be rather greasy & you can't eat much of it. No coriander.

Plusieurs boutiques à cette enseigne dans la ville. Nous avons pris les recettes les plus simples pour avoir les vraies saveurs.
C'est bon mais huileux.
Prix raisonnables quand on prend le simple.

Super friendly staff, the beavertail & poutine fresh & delicious, & the frozen lemonade was refreshing instead of just sugary. Plus it's a great place to sit & people watch!

Nous avons été accueillis par Alexandra & Daven, & pour une première expérience, tout a été parfait !

Nos Queues de Castor & nos limonades ont largement dépassé nos attentes : c'était délicieux. Un grand merci également pour la qualité du service. Alexandra & Daven ont été accueillants, souriants & d'une extrême gentillesse. Ils ont contribué à rendre ce moment encore plus agréable.

Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir & recommandons cette adresse sans hésiter !
