So this year I took my mom and sister when we travelled again to QC! It was just as I remembered, their coffee is super tasty, I got a flat white and my sister got a latté. I love the decor inside with all the coffee bags and the wooden interior. Service is always friendly too and they make the coffee quick. Highly recommend this spot! Also who doesn't love saying CANTOOK over and over - just rolls off the tongue!

We also shared a raspberry chocolate pastry which was okay. Maybe better if it was toasted but it wasn't offered as an option. My mocha cappuccino was deep in flavor and cocoa powder, not syrup, was used. Even with the almond milk it was still rich and the milk to coffee ratio was just right. The americano was a good cup. Interior is clean, modern and cozy. Seating is generous and spacious. Their counter is nice and centered. Our barista was efficient and friendly. Would recommend this in the downtown area, about 1.25 miles away from old Quebec.

Picture this: soft snow falling on the cobblestone streets of Petit-Champlain, fairy lights glowing, and the warm light spilling out of this beautiful little café. I ducked in both mornings of my short trip and could have happily stayed all day. The interior is perfect Québécois charm: exposed stone walls, wooden beams, cozy lighting, and that unbeatable smell of fresh baking. First morning I ordered the pistachio latte and the quiche Florentine. I would legitimately sell my firstborn for that pistachio latte: silky, perfectly balanced, with a rich, natural pistachio flavor that no syrup could ever match. One sip and I was ruined for life. The quiche was flawless: buttery, flaky crust, creamy spinach-and-cheese filling, baked to golden perfection. Absolute breakfast heaven. I braved a full-on snowglobe blizzard the next morning just to come back. This time I paired the same life-changing pistachio latte with the almond croissant. I'd hand over my other kid for daily access to these croissants (kidding... mostly). Impossibly crisp and flaky outside, cloud-soft inside, generously stuffed with fragrant almond paste, topped with toasted almonds and powdered sugar. I ate it slowly by the window while the snow piled up on Rue Notre-Dame and honestly felt like the luckiest person alive. The baristas were friendly, the vibe warm and unhurried, and everything was flawless. If you're in Quebec City, make La Maison Smith non-negotiable (and budget time to visit at least twice). Five stars isn't enough. This place is winter-morning perfection.

The chamomile tea is quite weak and I can't even taste the lemongrass at all. Maybe it needs to steep much longer then. Nope, it's just bland.

For me in the morning I need a good java fix. So this place did the trick. It's mostly a pastry shop serving coffee and they do have other options such as sandwiches. My choice was a raisin pastry with a cappuccino. Setting is clean modern and they have a great window facing the traffic on Lebourgneuf. I have to be careful how much of this I eat as I'll look like the pillsbury dough boy if I eat these delicious pastries in copious amounts. It's amazing how many French people are skinny. Their food is so rich and this place does a decent job. It's a good option rather than my yardstick Premiere Moisson which I'm believing is more factory done these days.
