I have wanted to purchase a La Pliage large tote for ages, and when we walked by this shop on the…read moreway to our rental apartment I took it as a sign! The owner was so welcoming and helpful, and I enjoyed my time in the shop. I was treated as if I was purchasing several expensive leather bags, was not made to feel rushed, and we had a lovely conversation about the Old City and she recommended several places to visit. All in all, if you love Longchamp bags and are in Old Town, please stop in and shop!

Like this Roots store very much. Roots for Canada is much akin to Nike for the United States. Both…read moreare flagship stores for their countries. Roots came to the forefront when Canada hosted the Summer Olympics in 1976 in Montreal and the winter Olympics in Calgary in 1988. In both cases Roots rose to the forefront of the merchandising campaigns, no matter who was the official sponsor. Roots remains a very intriguing store. In Quebec City the old storefront used to be in the Chateau Frontenac right on the boardwalk...now it has moved to this new location. Roots still has a number of interesting designs, and is a brand known throughout Canada and the United States. You'll like their designs, especially if you are partial to their Canadian Beaver. Good stuff - go visit.

Roots is an iconic Canadian chain and this location serves QC downtown well. They have some of the…read moremost comfortable clothing in the world but I have a hard time paying $68 for a pair of sweat pants or sweatshirt. 20 - 30 years ago it was more reasonable (when Beaver Canoe was their direct competitor) however the main roots store has morphed into a yuppie secondary type of lululemon lounge and woodsy cabin wear chic style clothing store. Selection here was more than adequate however they had no sale rack for me to peruse. I refuse to pay hyper-inflated prices for sweat pants or sweatshirts. No matter how cool and comfortable they may be! No matter how much nostalgia it may bring of my childhood and the coolness of the brand. Interior design in cosy and warm. A great place for a souvenir shirt of Canada or try to find something Quebec emblazoned. I will pass and come back.

This cozy store in Old Quebec is a one-stop shop for souvineers and all things Quebec. But not Quebec in the kitschy way, think artisan products made by local artists ranging from feather hair pieces and wool socks for men to fur everything and hand painted magnets. The good: even balance of offerings for both males and females. The bad: slightly on the pricey side but you have to keep in mind these are not mass produced items.
