    Lovely place with friendly staff. Great coffee and enjoyed the cheddar scone. Bright place, good lighting and music.

    Owner is very nice and always charming. The viennoiseries are better than a lot of other places, reminding me of Europe. Coffee is tasty and well done. The special hemp addition to a lot of things (salad, sandwiches, desserts) makes for a different twist rare in Quebec city. The place is great (there is a magnificent room for groups) and I can't wait for the pandemic to be done to hang out there.

    Awesome coffee place with awesome service. Didn’t get a chance to try the food but looks great and looking forward to trying it next time we’re in town 👍🏻 Adamo is a great guy

    Highly recommend this cafe in Quebec city. All the food items that we had were super delicious. Special shoutout for the grilled cheese sandwich and those mouthwatering croissants🤤

    We had a nice experience at this cafe! The owner was very nice and personable and had a cool concept for his store (hemp products + small cafe). The coffee and matcha were nice with vegan milk options. The food was tasty too but have to knock a point because of a fly that was hovering over some of the pastries (a hidden fly sticker would solve this issue!). No drip coffee either. Overall, I would recommend this stop if in need of a coffee that is better than second cup or mcdonalds but would not expect anything too fancy! We wish"Joe" all the best!

    Service impeccable, hôte tellement accueillant et gentil! Meilleur café de la vieille Capitale for sure! Best coffee in town, a total must in the old city. You'll fall in love with the owner every time you step in.

    Hard to find a place in Quebec City that ticks all the boxes; atmosphere, (and most of all) excellent coffee AND croissants - this place has all three! Highly recommend.

    Joe is a cool cat who attends to every detail of his establishment - from coffee, to his nonna-inspired Italian finger foods, to his art and his decor. This is definitely one of the top notch cafe shops we've been to in Quebec City. The environment is comfortable, the coffee good, the customer service... OUTSTANDING. Joe takes the time to talk to every. single. one. of his customers. Gets to know them. Introduces them to his cafe and the products. The what, the why. The centre piece artwork in his cafe is also one to marvel at. Only a matter of time before this cafe is recognized as one of *the* best in Quebec City and this place is buzzing every damn day and no longer the hidden gem that it currently is.

    Great location, nice ambience. My flammekeuche gratinee was small and uninteresting for the price and flambouyant name. The pasta salad was large but the pasta was tough and undercooked. Overall, an unremarkable experience for the money.

    I love this to get my coffee and croissants to go during the week! Fantastic coffee, great service and lovely environment!

  • 5/5 Shoshana Y. 2 years ago on Google
    5 stars for the coffee!!! On our way out of Quebec City we searched for coffee en route and luckily found a gem! Coffee all over Quebec is *so * much better than the brownish liquid we get in Toronto. The lovely young man behind the counter is passionate about his coffee and is himself very sweet (despite what his mom might’ve said 😉). The coffee is excellent, the granita is chef kiss fantastic all and all fun service with a smile. Highly recommend!

    This was a new cafe as were from out of province and the barista was helpful with her suggestions according to our taste buds. They were patient and couldn’t have been any more accurate with her suggestions. Beautiful Atmosphere and comfortable seating areas with great art.

👍 We were there for lunch and there was no lineup. We ordered the croissant sandwiches and coffee, both are freshly made. Highly recommend. Staff are very helpful to suggest food from the menu.
