Le Philtre Cafe

Stopped in for a flat white, chai latte, and falafel wrap on our way through the province. The atmosphere was just what we were hoping for, great vegan food and friendly faces, and the coffee hit the spot and was made with care. The barista was kind with our French when we asked for lait d'avion instead of lait d'avoine :)

My new favourite cafe! As a vegan, I was nervous prior to my trip to Quebec City, but because of this cafe I was nourished and satisfied for the entire duration of my visit. We prefer to try out a variety of places when we travel, but we were so happy after our initial visit that we returned every morning all week. I tried the tofu and falafel wraps, the fruit & yogurt bowl, as well as each smoothie and the lattes. Everything was perfect - delicious and nutritious. You are paying for quality meals and this is reflected in their prices. Worth every penny in my opinion. The atmosphere is wonderful & the employees are very kind and helpful. I will definitely return when I visit Quebec next. Until then, I won’t stop raving about this fantastic place.

Lovely little cafe with vegan & vegetarian food and drink! Love that they were open early, very welcoming, and nice staff. Perfect spot for breakfast on our road trip :)

To provide people with a good coffee experience is very complex, because it requires attention to detail at all levels.
This place has to my tastes above average food and service.
The coffee was good, but they do take their time to make it, which is a very good thing. I tried their Chia overnight…..it blew my mind how something so simple was so good and made me wanted to come back for it again.

The service was cordial and on point, they have a weird selection of used clothes for sale, (so random) and it is a perfect place to write emails.

I would give this institution a solid 3.9.

Enjoy

Best place to have vegan food. I tried their Falafel wrap, Tofu Wrap and Chai Latte and it was so delicious. Must visit this place if you are in Quebec for brunch.

Beautiful GF treats and brekky baked items. Many are gone by 10:00 (sad face). The coffee is very excellent! NIce roasts, well-prepared and served. The baristas are friendly and helpful. The mugs and bowls are custom pottery and they are cute!

Best coffee shop - Ambiance - in the city.

The owners Jonathan and Chantal (parents of cute little Hubert) run a Th3rdwave coffee shop that emerged as an idea from a recent trip down in Australia, so you know they have the best Flat White in town!

The rest of the menu is also very good. From their homemade Oat Milk Hot Chocolate to the Dirty Chai Latte, they surely have something to please you. As far as food goes almost everything is vegetarian or vegan, but trust me it’s also awesome. My personal favorite is the Tofu Wrap, and I don’t even like tofu, haha!

A little away for “all the action”, it’s still located on St-Vallier street in “St-So” (short for St-Sauveur). Parking near is easy to find and free so you can easily start you day there and then walk toward the more touristy parts of the city.

Ultimately, it commands a stop!

Love the drinks and LOVE the barista Jonathan! He had a smile that shows how much he loves serving his guests.
