A tiny gem in Jonquière! I came in here and got their Chai Tea Latté, and was pleasantly surprised…read moreby the light and airy beverage that I received. Unlike anything that I've had before, and it was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is quaint, and it definitely a very cute cafe. The muffins are to die for! Everything is a 5/5, but the reason why it ranks a 4/5 in my books is because of the lack of cold drinks that they offer. Their homemade orange juice and lemonade aren't always available, and they also only offer iced coffee. As a tea lover, I would have loved to see some iced tea!

A Canadian institution, Tim Horton's is everywhere. Mostly breakfast stuff, as they supposedly have…read moreexcellent coffee and donuts, they do lunches with sandwiches and soups too. This particular Tim's is especially busy for the drive-through crowd at 7:00 AM. Since I don't have a car, I was a walk-in customer for my few visits. Three fourths of the time, the counter clerk spoke excellent English. The other times, I was able to get my way through the order okay - "coffee" and "bagel" translate well - though I managed to "yes" to a supersized coffee. No biggie, it's their country and language. I'm just a visitor. Someone has delivered several copies of the local Saguenay newspaper for browsing. It's in French. No wi-fi.

This cute and dainty place has a great outdoor area for you to lounge around and enjoy your gelato, making it an amazing experience! The pricing of this place is very fair, and you can load up and try a variety of flavours given their big cup sizes. I ordered the four flavour size and happily chose blueberry, raspberry, strawberry and mango. In the Quebec region, blueberries are very popular and known to be the best, and the blueberry gelato did not disappoint. It was very fresh and tart and had a genuine fruit flavour. Mango and raspberry was the same. However, with strawberry, I could tell that it wasn't made with real fruit, but syrup or some artificial fruit. I would skip out on that flavour if I were you. I am a fruit lover myself, but they also had a wide selection of chocolate flavours! My friend got the Ferrero Rocher flavour and it was decadent and true to its name! I've had some of Vienna's best gelato, and this place can seriously match up to those flavours! Well done!

Croissants were decent. Coffee amazing. So much so, I bought a bag to go. I only been here for lunch and afternoon coffee break, but they also have sandwiches and pizzas. What won me over, as with most of Quebec, is the civilized manner of running business. Never too busy to answer a question and when I forgot my coffee grounds, it was set aside and waiting for me the following morning.

We stopped by Pains d'Exclamation to pick out some bakery items for our long drive home. Having…read morestuffed myself with croissant from all the top-rated bakery in downtown Quebec-city a week earlier, I really wasn't expecting anything comparable from a tiny local bakery in La Malbaie. Well let's just say I was pleasantly surprised... My eyes popped open when I took my first bite into their croissant. It was so incredibly flaky throughout and the outer crust near the edges were delightfully crispy. I would say in terms of flakiness/crispiness, it's as good if not better than the croissants at Le Croquembouche and Paillard in QC. It's not quite as airy as the other two places I mentioned, but it's still in the top-3 of my favorite croissant places in QC (or anywhere for that matter). We also had the strawberry brioche, which was also very good. It wasn't too sweet which I liked, but by the time we ate it, the fruit had leaked into the bread making it a little soggy. Still delicious and eating that fresh would have been amazing. The two bakery items we tried were fantastic, however, I felt the service could have been better. We got a little attitude when we were ordering because we had a difficult time deciding what to get and felt we were rushed. Could have been the language barrier, but I think she could have been more patient. Regardless, putting up with a little attitude from auntie is a small price to pay for tasting their delightful baked goods. Would definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the area!
