This is a great place. Everything was fresh and tasty (bar the coffees which were typically French), relaxed atmosphere, and friendly service. We went back here a few times. Highly recommended.

I've never had parisian macarons. I bought the mixed box of 12 (with tax $17) - so delicious. Wow. Each one was perfection. Eat them out of the fridge. The place didn't lend itself for wanting to stay and eat them there. The room was quite warm. Service was friendly.

I say these are the best pastries in Quebec City, but it might really be a toss-up between Le Croquembouche and Paillard. Le Croquembouche definitely has a bigger selection of pastries and bread. Located in St. Roch, we stopped here on our way out of town to have breakfast, and stock up on artisanal breads (try the olive bread). They... More

This bakery and pastry shop is unique in the city. The minute you enter the premises you nose picks up the smell of churned butter that is used in most of the baking goods on display. The variety of European-like cookies and pastries offerings is just amazing. Everything tastes good. The problem is making up your mind on what is... More

The selection on offer in this establishment is wonderful. Lots and lots of tasty pastries. My favourite is the savoury pancakes. A good selection in Quebec. Staff are always very friendly.

This incredible bakery had so many delicious options it was almost impossible to make a decision. Whether you're looking for something savoury or sweet they've got something to please everyone. My boyfriend and I shared a crepe stuffed with cheeses, ham, mushrooms and the most amazing béchamel sauce. By far the best savoury crepe we've ever had! For dessert we... More

Le Crquembouche is a great bakery! Great pastries, good coffee, phenomenal service! Great place to take the kids for a quick bite on your way to Le Carnival, touring Old Quebec or if you are on your way out to Village aux Sport. The people are fantastic, especially when you are there for your 2nd & 3rd visits! Priced well,... More

This is one of my favorite bakeries in Quebec and would suggest it to any tourists wishing to get Franch-inspired breads, pastries and desserts. The prices also keep it affordable for locals and is one of those litle gems that makes our city so awesome. This is a quite busy bakery with a constant line rotation so not exactly the... More
