Great places for a classic weekday breakfast in Quebec City

Cafe Stat

1
782 Rue Saint-Joseph E, Québec, QC G1K 3C3

Nothing in this large, modestly decorated locale suggests that you will be served excellent small roasted potatoes and slices of bacon crisped to perfection, yet this is what you will find here, along with a bonus smile and one of the best lattes in town.

Chez Victor St-Paul

2
140-300, rue Saint-Paul, Québec, QC G1K 7R1

Several Chez Victor establishments, known for being the region’s pioneers of the gourmet burger, now offer breakfast, including the St. Paul Street location. While they offer a unique breakfast burger, we assure you the classics are not being overlooked.

Café Krieghoff

3
1089 Avenue Cartier, Québec, QC G1R 2S6

A staple on Cartier Street for decades, Café Krieghoff is often frequented by regulars who come in to sip a long espresso or read their newspaper before going to work. It honours the classic two eggs and bacon combo, but you may be tempted by their pancakes!

Café Restaurant Au Bonnet D'Âne

4
298, rue Saint-Jean, Québec, QC G1R 1P1

When stopping at Bonnet d'Âne, the only risk you run is not wanting to leave - especially if you have breakfast on the shady terrace on a summer day!

Le Hobbit Bistro

5
700, rue Saint-Jean, Québec, QC G1R 1P9

Although it’s a bistro cuisine at night, Le Hobbit offers tasty, classic breakfast selections in the morning. A bonus: a place on the terrace allows you to watch the passersby.

Restaurant L'Alcyon Inc

6
577, boul Charest O, Québec, QC G1N 2B7

You’ll find no pretentiousness here: bacon and "tites sausages" (little sausages) reign supreme and, while the customer base is modest on weekdays, you will need to wait in line if you visit on the weekend.

Les Trois Garçons

7
1084, rue Saint-Jean, Québec, QC G1R 1S4

Three young owners, all from restaurateur families, have created a restaurant in their image: relaxed, friendly and welcoming. On weekday mornings, the service is fast and efficient, perfect for a hurried breakfast. On the weekend, they like to relax and stretch breakfast over time.
