Vraiment trop cher pour un queue de castor avec un petit minuscule boule de crème glacée (chaque petit boule crème glacée + la queue appart $$).
Le goût était là & le service aussi.
L'endroit très pittoresque dans le petit Champlain.

Nice place to have beaver tail or poutine, not many places to sit

Nous avons été charmés par l'excellent service offert par l'équipe de la succursale du Petit-Champlain. Situé dans un quartier touristique & haut en couleur, l'endroit vaut le détour. Nous avons goûté à la nouveauté, le hot-dog (un vrai délice, je recommande ! 🌭), ainsi qu'à la queue de castor Nanaimo - généreusement garnie par le responsable, pour notre plus grand plaisir 🔥.

Cela dit, les grands classiques demeurent, selon moi, des incontournables. 🫶🏼

Pour combler une fringale sucrée en flânant sur Champlain, c'est une halte à ne pas manquer.
Petit bémol : l'été, le lieu peut être très achalandé ??

The beaver tail is basically a donut in another shape. We tried the one with hazelnut cream on top & were very surprised to see they also put sugar on top of nutella. Why? Nutella is already very sweet, why top it with sugar?
In conclusion, if you like something deep fried that is super sweet, come here. Otherwise, eat somewhere else.

Fun & delicious! BeaverTails are fried dough pastries shaped like a beaver's tail, crispy on the outside & soft inside. I tried the maple flavor - simple but sooo good. Very impressive!

They also have fun toppings like Nutella, banana, or maple butter. Great for a quick snack while walking around Old Quebec!

Fried dough, chocolate, maple, & sugar; what's not to like? We got mEHple & Hazel Amour, & they did not disappoint. A must get experience while in Canada.
