Chez Boulay, the celebrated bistro in Old Quebec, was opened by renowned chefs Jean-Luc Boulay and Arnaud Marchand, known for their creative approach to boreal cuisine. The menu offers a delightful exploration of local products and traditional French techniques, with a particular focus on game meats and regional ingredients. Our dinner featured hearty dishes like duck breast and grilled meats, alongside more unique offerings such as bison and a delectable sea buckthorn tartlet for dessert.

The atmosphere is welcoming, enhanced by attentive and enthusiastic service. Our waiter’s charm and animated interactions added a touch of humor to the experience. With its excellent quality-to-price ratio, Chez Boulay stands out as a must-visit for those eager to taste the flavors of Quebec’s terroir.

We live at the Victoria Hotel and used this establishment for emergency assistance one evening returning from a long day of sightseeing.
Welcoming staff and good meals.
Price "upwards" but it's so practical and good.

If you cannot answer a simple question on the phone, why should I stop by? I went elsewhere. since the owner took time to respond, I will go into further detail. I spoke in French to ask if there was bread, even though my French is so so. Evidently your student worker didn’t like to respond in English. I understand, but there was certainly attitude. Sometimes there is bread is not an answer.

Bought a package of caramel macaroons. What a disappointment... They were crushed and had a freezer taste... the Smore cake was ok, nothing more. I really expected better, I won't go back.

Very good bakery, but a little bit expensive. I had a croque monsieur with cranberries and pistache nuts. Think it is called artic char. Very tasty.

Also great service.

It is right next to a hotel.

Expensive for the size of the pastries, however very good (flaky and buttery).
