    The lattes are amAzing! Not a lot of English spoken but truly worth the trip! The bouchees are amazing and the orange chocolate scone... yummmm. I drove way out of my way to get one more latte before leaving town.

    Cinnamon roll in front, croissant and Cafe au lait!

    Nestle between Yusuf Sushi and Harvey, the cafe is gem of a find. Gracious services from the kind proprietors! In an instant, cafe au lait pairs deliciously brioches (cinnamon roll) and warm croissant are at our table. Not huge selection of pastries, but got everything for the go: sandwiches, wraps, sweets, etc. Very strong WIFI for streaming (that's why laptops and smart devices are everywhere in here!). Background music choice are also relaxing and non-intrusive. Will drop by again on our trip back.

    Solid Cafe to do work or relax in. On my visit there was a copious amount of laptops and students of what appeared to be studying for midterms. The cafe is comfortable and cozy and they have a good selection of coffee shop based drinks and snacks. I decided to go with a capucinno. They have two sizes small and what appeared to be a small and L which looked like a soup bowl. On that oberservation I said "petit SVP". Flavour was creamy and slightly strong but very little bitterness. I'm happy to find this delightful little cafe as I didn't thing there was much other than Tim (burnt coffee taste) Hortons or gas station coffee. They do have take home bags and other coffee related paraphernalia. Overall a nice place to get your wake up fix in Levis.

    Food all looked great…read more Not all food tastes great. Perhaps more time spent seasoning vs plating would have done this location some good. Fish was overcooked. Shepherds pie tasted just of mashed potatoes. My son's 2 inches of salmon was so tiny, even little him laughed at it. Kids didn't like the homemade ketchup. And, gah, they were so slow with every course. Again, I wondered if the labor spent in the kitchen was used wisely. What were they doing back there? No, we would not return.

    My wife and I were excited to eat at Cochon Dingue in Levis. I saw a few locations in downtown…read moreQuebec City and my wife liked the cute pig statues out front. Also when I got back to the hotel, I looked at some notes of things to do in Quebec City and a friend had recommended the downtown Cochon Dingue a few years ago. Turned out there was a location downstairs right next to the lobby of our hotel, which is the Levis branch. As of 2026, there are apparently 6 branches in Quebec City and one in Montreal. The cocktails were great. 5/5. But not everything on the menu was equally good. My wife's French Onion soup was 5/5 easily, though I don't often eat that dish. My escargot was tasty but basically the usual canned escargot and the tomao sauce on the bread was too sweet - sort of an Ontario pizza sauce style. 3.5/5. I ordered steak frites and while the steak was edible it was overcooked medium to medium well. I could have cooked the steak better. Fries were lukewarm for both me and my wife which is sort of a sin in my book. The wife got chopped chicken on toasted bread with some sort of gravy. Her dish was not good. Bread tasted kinda weird as did the gravy though edible. Neither of us ate the chicken which tasted kind of old. Creme brulee for dessert was good. Except for the chicken my wife and I ate everything. Would I come back here for a brunch to try their work at a different meal Yes. Would I try a different branch if I was in Quebec City. Yes. Would I come back here for dinner? No, I would not. More likely to hit up a local McDonald's or A&W's or Normandin's or just hit up IGA for some snacks.

    EdiBle :)) ++…read more Ambiance is charming, authentic, old and touristy. Old wooden snow shoes on the ceiling, sharpie written signatures on the old walls, window sills etc. with shutter style windows that open to rue St. Louie. It was full and had a line out the door. +++. Food is Canadian. I had their version of shepherds pie and it was the best one I've had in 3 decades including those I've tried in England, Scotland and Ireland!! Well balanced combination and smooth mash potatoes. Their homemade ketchup is amazeBallS! It does NOT look like Heinz by the way. I tried to buy some at their store next door but were out of it :/. Idk about their other dishes but I would eat their shepherds pie every week! +++ Service is friendly prompt and well informed staff. +++. Price was very fair for the best shepherds pie eVa! - Forget about parking. This is a pedestrian friendly old Quebec. All the oddities add character bc their food is good. I'll be BaaaaacK :)) MY RATINGS - - - Inhumane - - Disgusted - Don't bother = Missed the Mark + Good ++ Better +++ EDIBLE...WHERE have you been all my LiFe!

To put that in perspective, you can get a 14 oz steak for $70 at the fancy steak joint nearby. Come here for the vibe, the $5 hand made taffy roll (that you can get for $3 in the corner store) but watch out for the waiter's upsell recommendations. If you bring the kids, may be the kids plats is the way to go as you get the Taffy included.

    I really enjoyed eating at Cochon Dingue, a French Canadian restaurant with a great selection of…read morefood. I liked it so much that I went twice for dinner. I had the pork chop, which was unique and had a delicious savory-sweet flavor. I also tried the classic poutine, and it was cooked perfectly on all levels. The staff was friendly, and there was plenty of parking. The price was good too! Highly recommended.

    We came here in the morning at a different location, we liked it so much we came again…read more Nancya was the best server that we had here in quebec city. She was so informative and she gave the best recommendations--and also, so incredibly sweet. She suggested the famous pot en pot, and the baby back ribs. We also ordered the french onion soup as well. We loved her suggestions, my parents and I basically cleaned the plate for them. Even the salad from each plate was delicious. (My dad, who is normally not a fan of salads, kept going for more) The french onion soup was also good, but a little too salty for my parents. I had briefly mentioned to Nancya about that, and she ended up taking it off the bill. I thanked her and she said it was normal! As an American, this is not what I'm used to and I was just beyond surprised over the customer service. I highly recommend going to Cochon Dingue and I hope your server is Nancya, because you will be taken care of.
