    Paillard - Breakfast quiche

    Fresh is best and Paillard does this so right! We were checking out of our hotel and looking for a…read morequick breakfast to grab before heading to the airport. The place is huge when you walk in, lots of places to sit and enjoy you baked good. We got coffees to go and two cheese croissants and a toasted smoked salmon bagel. The cheese croissants were fresh, fluffy, buttery and layered. They just do pastries better in QC than home (Vancouver). The cheese was nicely distributed through the croissant too. My salmon bagel was also a star! So fresh, good toppings and great crunch. The bagel was chewy and delicious too. Service was fast and we enjoyed everything we had!

    Excellent place to get a quick bite and a hot beverage. We got the combo of the day which includes…read more- a decent size piece of quiche (got the broccoli cheddar) or a half sandwich, a soup (got cream of mushroom), a tea or coffee (or upgrade it to latte or hot chocolate for a small cost, we paid ~2 CA$ for hot chocolate with marshmallows). The combo also contained a slice of cranberry almond bread and a macaroon. The service was friendly and the staff were patient with tourists trying to get the best "combo". The combo cost less than 22 CA$ with the upgrades, which was a great deal. Quiche and soup were warm and filling. Hot chocolate was pretty tasty as well. It was a filling meal for 2 people. Ambience was good for a place to get a quick bite and they had restrooms to freshen up on a cold night (it was -20C/-4F outside!).

It has that effortless charm that makes you want to linger a little longer. They offer a great selection of sandwiches, baked goods, and pastries -- everything displayed beautifully and clearly made with care. I ordered a chocolate croissant, ham & brie sandwich, and a matcha latte. - The croissant was flaky with a rich chocolate centre. - The sandwich was fresh, generously filled, and well balanced. - The matcha latte was smooth and not overly sweet. Portions are solid, ingredients taste fresh, and prices are very reasonable for the quality. A lovely spot to pop into when you're in the area.

This is a bright, airy, and inviting cafe with several tables and a long counter facing the street for seating. Friendly and welcoming service. I really liked the vibe inside the cafe. It is located about 1.5 blocks behind the Delta hotel on Rene Lévesque Boulevard and a walkable distance to the entrance of the historic part of old Quebec City. I had the New York Roll Croissant, filled with a raspberry pastry cream and a white chocolate ganache on the outside. I loved it! My matcha latte with oat milk could have been a little warmer. I highly recommend a visit to this cafe!

    No nonsense Toboggan ride, line ups from the end of the line is about 45 mins. Each ticket is good…read morefor one ride / person. You will need two tickets to go down even on the same toboggan. They have about three to four times the number of toboggans to the number of lanes, so there is a constant stream going the whole time. It is a very iconic and speedy ride, definately enjoy if you are in town. If you are just walking by, just go for it, as they do close the ride based on weather conditions. They post updates on the store doors if there are any changes to regular operations. The walkways are slippery, this is the case for all of old Quebec, have the right boots on and take your time. Dragging the toboggan along the path up the ride is not too difficult, but again, watch your footing! Will do this again whenever we are in town and as soon as we can instead of waiting!

    This review is just for a short visit for a hot beverage, and not for the toboggan ride. We were…read morestaying at the Chateau Frontenac Hotel and had walked around for a while in the cold and snow in December. We thought it would be nice to grab a hot cocoa and sit indoors after the sun went down. We ordered at the counter and another server prepared our drink for us. We put extra cinnamon in it. Cocoa was decent if not outstanding. Since it was late, only a few people were doing the ride and we couldn't really see them go down from inside the little shack. Anyway, we got what we wanted -- a hot beverage indoors after being out in the cold.
