This man racially profiled me, making a face and saying stuff in French that I needed my Costco card and looked at everyone for a validation and response, did not apologize to me but for next person in line. I was trying to buy just a container of coffee. Forget that darn coffee and save yourself the trip/bad experience. Costco needs to hire better people here. Would give negative review if I could.

Like this Roots store very much. Roots for Canada is much akin to Nike for the United States. Both…read moreare flagship stores for their countries. Roots came to the forefront when Canada hosted the Summer Olympics in 1976 in Montreal and the winter Olympics in Calgary in 1988. In both cases Roots rose to the forefront of the merchandising campaigns, no matter who was the official sponsor. Roots remains a very intriguing store. In Quebec City the old storefront used to be in the Chateau Frontenac right on the boardwalk...now it has moved to this new location. Roots still has a number of interesting designs, and is a brand known throughout Canada and the United States. You'll like their designs, especially if you are partial to their Canadian Beaver. Good stuff - go visit.

Roots is an iconic Canadian chain and this location serves QC downtown well. They have some of the…read moremost comfortable clothing in the world but I have a hard time paying $68 for a pair of sweat pants or sweatshirt. 20 - 30 years ago it was more reasonable (when Beaver Canoe was their direct competitor) however the main roots store has morphed into a yuppie secondary type of lululemon lounge and woodsy cabin wear chic style clothing store. Selection here was more than adequate however they had no sale rack for me to peruse. I refuse to pay hyper-inflated prices for sweat pants or sweatshirts. No matter how cool and comfortable they may be! No matter how much nostalgia it may bring of my childhood and the coolness of the brand. Interior design in cosy and warm. A great place for a souvenir shirt of Canada or try to find something Quebec emblazoned. I will pass and come back.

Awesome store near where I was staying. On a busy street with plenty of other shops…read more The ice cream here is delicious. Plenty of different flavors. Cups or waffle cones as well as the traditional sugar and non sugar cones. They also have shakes and plenty of souvenirs. Obviously all themed towards cows and ice cream. Cute shop and good place to stop for a snack and maybe a souvenir too!

So everyone on the cruise kept raving about this ice cream shop so I finally made it to the store…read morein Quebec City! It was delicious! I got a scoop of dark cherry double chocolate on a plain waffle cone. The scoop seemed small. Cost me $5.75 American dollar. They only give you change in French dollar so I let them keep it. Overall good experience.

They have a lot of unique Canadian artiste creations ranging from home decor to jewelry and…read moreclothing accessories! The shop owner is very kind and i especially love the metal work jewelry. The price is very decent considering its original art work and all hand crafted. There are souvenir stores down the road charging almost the same $$ for much lesser quality accessories that are clearly not handmade. The store is very clean and brightly lit and I particularly enjoy that each artist has a section with some cards you can take that have their information on it. If you are traveling into the city, be sure to support the local artists!!

I was in Quebec City around Christmas time in 2010. We were staying at a B&B only a few steps from…read morethis hat shop. I was greeted very cordially by an older gentlemen. He spoke to me in French but when I said I was from Pennsylvania on holiday he immediately spoke to me in English. He saw I was wearing a Borsellino fedora and he directed me to an area that had many beautiful fedora' s. He helped me choose a couple in my size and made sure they fit properly. I purchased one and still have and wear it every fall and winter. I took a picture of the shop from the outside on a very snowy day.(I'm a photographer.). I have the picture hanging in my den. Out of curiosity I decided to see if I could find this shop on-line, and today I found it. If and when I get back to Quebec City I will surely visit the shop again!! Al C. 3/30/2022. Jamison, Pa.

I was visiting the city of Quebec with a non-profit group I was traveling with. I work at a hat…read moreshop back in the states and so I was on the prawl for a cool Canadian hat. I came across this store and was super excited to geek out with the workers and share experiences with other hat store employees as I almost never get to do that back home. I arrived and was greeted very coldly by the female shop owner. I told her I worked in the states with hats and she completely no sold it. Couldn't be bothered with me. Whatever. It's the middle of the work day so it can get tiring. I get it. I come across a hat I thought would be cool for my coworker and asked her if I could take some pictures so I can get my friends opinion (because I was raised to fucking ask before you do shit like that in a foreign country or any store for that matter). She proceeded to snatch the hat from me and physically push me out the fucking shop and accused me of trying to steal her ideas and her hats (which is ludicrous because I work in ANOTHER COUNTRY) and I of course don't take kindly to someone putting their hands on me. We exchange some words and I go back to the place I was eating lunch at and tell my travel mates what happened. After we finish our lunch (which was next door to the shop) we are waiting outside the street when the husband comes out and asks if there's anything I'd like to say about his shop (I was of course pointing out to my friends the woman who pushed me out the shop). The husband, wife, and I get into an argument in the middle of the street and I never once got an apology. I don't think I did anything wrong. I don't want to say it's race related but she treated the white customers in the store a hell of a lot better than she did me. Maybe they were regulars? There's another hat store 5 minutes away in the same district. The people are friendly there. Don't bother with these rude and aggressive people.
