La Maison Smith, a cozy Escape in Old Québec…read more Stopped in for a little downtime (and a break from the freezing Québec winds), and La Maison Smith delivered exactly what I needed. Perfectly tucked into Old Québec, it's the kind of café you wander into once and immediately want to claim as "your spot." The menu has everything--coffee, tea, and even alcoholic drinks if you're feeling extra cozy. I went with a London Fog and a Maple Latte, both served in giant, soul‑warming mugs. Absolute comfort in liquid form. The space is bright and roomy with high tops, small tables, and counter seating overlooking the street--ideal for people‑watching or thawing out while pretending you're in a postcard. A lovely little refuge in the heart of the city.

I'm not going to lie, I'd do it again. Rich but not over sweet. Perfectly paired with the Vanilla Latte on this cold day. I also tried the Raspberry and Chocolate croissant. It was a unique take and worth a try. It was served a little on the cold side so not flaky like I'm used to a croissant being. Great place to stop in for a snack and get out of the cold.

The service was friendly and fast, and just a great little cafe with plenty of seating. The interior is clean, modern and cozy. Mr. Bee ordered a latte, and when I spotted the Macarons, that is my jam. We ordered six, three maple syrup, two cafe latte and one Hazelnut. The maple syrup and hazelnut were my favorites, but honestly they were all incredible. Macaron's are hard to make and hard to get right. These were perfect. A crunch to the outer shell and the middle was creamy and the flavors were a bit subtle, but excellent. Just enough to let you know what you were eating. If I lived in Quebec City, this spot would be dangerous for me. The latte Mr. Bee ordered was also great. It was creamy, not bitter and really delicious. Cafe La Maison Smith was a great little stop for an afternoon snack and rest.

The menu is not extensive - it's boards on the wall. It makes it very easy to pick or decide if this place is for you or not. We were very excited for crepes and croissants. We were able to get both. We manage to snag enough seats for the 6 of us, we pulled some tables together. It's not a large space, however, there were a couple of parties that had at least 5 people. You order at the counter and then take a seat or step to the side and wait for your name to be called. If you are sitting they will bring the food to you. We ordered a few crepes which we all loved. Nutella, Western, Traditional. Made fresh to order - the kids really enjoyed watching the gentleman make them. They were delicious and beautifully created. The Almond croissant - was flakey and delicious. I would definitely return and recommend.

It feels like culture and more personal. This incredibly flaky, scrumptious croissant makes the crispiest sound of 'em all. Filled with buttery goodness, Paillard's almond croissant is also not to be missed.

It seems a small shop but there are actually three floors so plenty seats for large capacity. In terms of the food, the latte was pretty strong, a good wake-up drink. They have milk and sugar available on the side for customers to adjust the drink based on their preference. The smoky meat sandwich is so delicious. The bread is multi-grain which made the sandwich has more flavors. It is not a super fancy sandwich but it has essential ingredients to make it delicious and good enough for breakfast. If I have chance, I would come to try their pastries. They look very yummy.
