The 14 Best Coffee Shops in Quebec City

Updated: 3 hours ago

Best Coffee Shops in Quebec City | Alpacka My Bags

You might be surprised by how many amazing coffee shops there are in Quebec City. It’s no coffee capital, but that doesn’t stop the Quebecois from creating killer lattes and cozy cafes!


After completing the very "difficult" task of trying many cafes, and sipping on many lattes, I've compiled a list of the best coffee shops in Quebec City.


If you enjoy a nice cappuccino, London fog, or matcha latte, you need to add these coffee shops to your Quebec City itinerary. Especially if you're visiting Canada in winter; this is the perfect way to warm up!


For all my caffeine-loving friends, keep reading for the best coffee shops in Quebec City. And if you enjoy fresh pastries, you’re in luck! You will find yummy, fresh-baked pastries at these coffee shops too as well as some crepes, soups, and sandwiches.


14 Best Coffee Shops in Quebec City


1. Baguette & Chocolat


Come here for killer crepes along with hot, fresh lattes. Ask for cinnamon or cocoa to top your latte off; it honestly makes the perfect addition. This is also a great location to bring your laptop to and get some work done while enjoying your provisions.

2. Cafe La Maison Smith


This coffee shop is a chain in Quebec City, so you’ll find multiple locations, all worth visiting. You have to get a salted caramel latte and a grilled cheese here, they’re both addicting! You'll also find a plethora of macarons here, like seriously in every flavor imaginable.

3. Joe Cool Cafe & Curiosities


This place lives up to its name! A cool coffee shop to stop for lunch and a coffee, or bring your laptop and get some remote work checked off here. Their soups are perfect on a chilly day, and the chai teas are giant. Yum! Another bonus, the decor and vibe are definitely a big hit.

4. Cafe Pekoe


If you want unique pastries, you definitely need to visit Cafe Pekoe. While you couldn’t go wrong with any of their pastries, we highly recommend the earl grey scone and chocolate coconut carrot cake bar if available! Another great place to work, but be ready for it to be busy. Seating may be limited.

5. Nektar Cafeologue


A hip, chill place to stop for caffeine, Nektar is a popular place for digital nomads and college students to hang out. It has a great vibe with hanging plants filling the atmosphere with pretty greenery. Nektar is the perfect chill place, no frills here.

6. Cafe Saint-Henri


Another popular place for college students and digital nomads, Cafe Saint-Henri has a killer selection of donuts! From pistachio to creme brulee to Biscoff cookie donuts, if you’re a fellow donut lover you simply have to stop here. Make sure you stop by early, the best donuts sell quickly.

7. L'art du Café Colombien Tintico


If you’re looking for something more unique, head to Tintico! They offer amazing coffee and tea drinks along with mouthwatering Colombian cuisine. From empanadas to tequeños, everything here is SO good, we would go back in a heartbeat and order it all. And not to pick favorites, but Tintico tops my list of the best coffee shops in Quebec City.

8. Book and Coffee Shop Saint-Suave


In a quieter, more residential area, you’ll find Book and Coffee Shop Saint-Suave which is just as it’s called! This coffee shop doubles as a little bookstore, and they sell French books as well as some books in English. You'll find daily specials, including some veggie options for food.

9. Faux Movement


Swap the books out for athletic wear, and you’ll be in Faux Movement! This modern coffee shop offers great drinks in a fantastic location. It’s close to the Chateau Frontenac, multiple famous murals, shopping, and more. A fun place to pop into, browse their gear, and sip on a yummy drink.

10. Les Brûlerie St-Jean


Located in another great area is Les Brûlerie St-Jean. It’s close to the busier downtown area of Quebec City. They also have an upstairs here so it’s a great place to get some work done too! The hot apple cider is amazing here FYI.

Now you know the essential details of what the best coffee shops in Quebec City are, where will you be stopping first? These were hands down our favorite spots for a hot latte or London fog, and we would gladly go back to any of them.



If you feel like venturing out of the city, you need to head to the quaint town of Saint-Anne-de-Beaupre! This charming small town is located about 30 minutes from Quebec City and is a lovely place to slow down and enjoy all the small things.

11. Cafe Apollo


Along with seriously good coffee and tea staples, you can order sandwiches, vegan and non-vegan pastries, kombucha, and more here. They also have a little store section that offers wines, coffee beans, apparel, and more. Plus, it’s dog-friendly!

12. BAM Cafe


With incredibly welcoming staff, you’ll feel right at home in BAM. One of the best parts about this coffee shop, besides how tasty it is, are the chairs! Comfy chairs to enjoy a London Fog tea latte and mouth-watering beignet? Yes, please!

13. Les Bonyeuses


You can order a wonderful latte here, but what you must get are several pastries and a loaf of bread! This tiny bakery packs a punch with fresh-baked bread of all kinds and pastries that leave you wanting more.

14. Les Trois Becs


If you enjoy shopping locally and cooking when you travel, you definitely need to go to Les Trois Becs! This cute little coffee shop doubles as a small grocery store with unique food options. They also have a killer couscous salad!

It was a pleasant surprise to find such cute, cozy, and delicious coffee shops in Quebec City and Beaupre! We just had to share them with you, you seriously don’t want to miss out on them. Along with the coffee, the food, pastries, and desserts are all killer in Quebec City.



And if you’re feeling adventurous or love baking, try your hand at making Quebec Sugar Pie. It’s a sweet, incredible dessert that pairs very well with a latte from one of the best coffee shops above!


So what is your go-to coffee order? If you're a fellow coffee addict, you'll also know the importance of a great coffee shop when traveling, and even at home!


You won't be disappointed with any of these spots. From amazing brews to cozy corners, they truly are the best coffee shops in Quebec City.
