La Maison Smith St Jean - Québec

Second Smith's café I tried at Quebec, their coffee's very good, affordable viennoiseries, I wished I had my croissant heated but I think I should've asked it myself! There's something about Smith's cafés' rustic interior design that just makes you want to go back, not like a Starbuck...

Took a quick break from our afternoon walk to get out of the rain. The place is nice and homey. The staff were nice and polite. We had mokaccinos and a cinammon bun. The coffee was good could definitely taste the cocoa and was not too sweet. The bun was OK in flavour, but a little dry.

The latte was well made and the croque monsieur was delicious! The café itself was quite nice to spend some time in. Spacey enough and had several tables.

Great find on a quick trip to Quebec. Pleasantly tart but smooth roasty espresso and excellent strong cold brew. The date square with strudel topping didn’t travel well, but was delicious in whole and smashed form. A surprisingly wide selection of in-house roasted coffees for purchase as well.

The pistachio latte was good, but unfortunately the croissants did not taste fresh, despite looking nice.
