The Best Restaurant in Outside the Old City, Quebec City

Background Illustration for Restaurants

There are many cute cafés and fine eateries within the walls of the Old City, but don't miss the thriving culinary scene beyond them. Le Café du Clocher Penché is arguably the bistro with the best brunch, and it gives you an excuse to visit trendy St-Roch. Or if you're looking for a little more luxury, head to Louis Hébert to nibble on trendy dishes while playing "spot the politico."

Work up a good appetite by wandering through the streets. No visit to Québec is complete without a picnic in the park; pop into one of the city's little out-of-the-way patisseries for buttery croissants and heavenly brioches.

Chez Victor

$$ | St-Jean-Baptiste

This cozy burger joint with brick-and-stone walls has a wide range of topping combinations, daily special burgers, and French fries are served with a dollop of homemade mayonnaise (there are five varieties available) and poppy seeds. Salads, sandwiches, and a daily dessert made fresh by the pastry chef are also available. This original location was so successful that it spawned several other branches, notably in the Vieux-Port area of the Lower Town.
