In hindsight, and looking at the photos of others, I really should've eaten something here. I'd…read moretell you to do just that. Everything on everyone's tables looked good but it was a matter of timing; This was a beer stop only and for that too, Griendel, with its inviting outdoor seats and friendly staff was great. Outside of the area most tourists in Quebec City will discover, Griendel was very near my airbnb which - I believe - was in Saint-Sauveur. There's a few blocks of cafes and shops in this neighborhood and I discovered them days before realizing that Saint-Roch, with its onslaught of cafes and shops, was down the same road only a short walk away. Regardless, this seemed like a place the hip young locals love and I could get behind what they were offering. A wide array of craft beer was offered and though I'm generally not much of a beer fan, I really got into the one I chose: Blanche au Citron Meyer et aux Poivres (aka #Patelle, 4.8% alcohol). I don't know French but correctly deduced that this beer contained Meyer Lemon and on a humid, hot afternoon that was enough to sell me. IPAs also received high marks. Come for the beer but if you stay for the food I doubt it'll disappoint.

We thought the beer selection was very good and the food selection just has good. We ended up…read moreeating the hummus with pita bread which was quite good but the hummus was a little bit more runnier than what we're used to seeing where we're from. Then we ordered the small poutine with the added smoked meat, which was very delicious. It was enough to comfortably fill us up but still leave room for plenty of the good beer here.

We had a leisurely lunch here after exploring the city. The service was unbothered and, as we were…read moredone with our to-do list and spent from so much walking, we were served perfectly. The restaurant was packed and we were lucky to have gotten the last table. It was outdoors --- seems they do not always have the sidewalk tables set up -- and a lovely day for us to be outside, shaded by the building, gazing up at a church steeple not far down the street and listening to the native French speaker chatting away in the r neighborhood. We enjoyed 2 savory crepes : ham and sausage. We loved! 2 dessert crepes: pear and apple We recommend.

All crepes are freshly cooked on traditional billig iron griddles, available in both savory and sweet flavors. I tried the duck confit with goat cheese, and it was incredible. The duck meat is tender and juicy, paired perfectly with crispy yet soft buckwheat crepe crust. Caramelized onions blend smoothly with rich cheese, bringing out such a savory and satisfying taste. Pair it with local cider or fresh Guinness draft beer, and your taste buds will be totally satisfied. A well-loved spot on Rue Saint-Jean in Old Quebec. Expect a short wait on weekends. After your brunch, you can easily wander around nearby bookstores and vintage shops for a nice stroll. Rating: 5/5
