Beaver tails for after dinner or anytime of the day! It is so good that we went back for second before leaving Quebec City. Nice cosy shop & staff prepare the warm crispy crust with your pick of toppings from maple syrup to peanut butter with smarties! A must try when in Quebec City, Canada.

I would rather say just polite more than a little friendly. The Beaver tail was ok, but I guess our choice of vanilla Oreo lacked flavor.

I love beaver tails!!! But this place in Quebec is not as clean as it used to be even the bathrooms were very dirty, & the service wasn't the best either...

Very good "beaver tail". We tried only the classic one, but they have a massive list of options.
