Reviewed By Shoregirl82 - Washington DC, United States
This grocery store has a little bit of everything - premade foods, snacks, maple everything, dried pasta, toiletries, candies. The first night I was in town, I went to grab a few snacks and a quick dinner. Towards the end of my trip, I went back again to buy some souvenirs for friends. If you can't find something in here, I don't know where you'd find it. It's worth going just to see the inside of the store, which I couldn't get over the quaintness without feeling kitschy.

I would highly recommend going here first when you travel to Quebec so you can stock up on fresh food (as restaurant food can be quite rich). Keep in mind most of these suppliers speak French only. Highly t commend the almond croissants at the bakery, getting some strawberries and orange soaked cranberries. I would suggest going earlier in the day when it is less busy. It is a stop on the hop on hop off bus tour of Quebec.
