Happy Hour Spots in Québec City

Drinks and shopping? Yes you can. Deux22’s combination of clothing and cocktails has stolen my heart and put a dent in my wallet. The Mexican‑inspired menu and cocktails are great, but it’s the year‑round patio that keeps me coming back—even in the dead of winter.

This little Asian restaurant in Saint-Sauveur is a hole-in-the-wall worth hunting down. Friendly service, succulent Asian street food, and a drinks menu that’s plenty tempting. I particularly appreciate their drinks served in lucky cat glasses with golden straws!

Located in the famous Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, Le Sam is an experience unto itself, not least because of the amazing view of the St. Lawrence River. It’s lush and swanky and they play jazz. Need I say more?

This total gem on Avenue Cartier just makes me want to sail away to Corsica. It’s where I go to try new wines and have a bite with friends. Plus, they have an impressive list of privately imported wines.

A classy little joint on Avenue Maguire that serves up Mexican flavours and a Spanish vinoteca vibe—the perfect pairing! Even if you’re in a group, pull up a chair at the bar. It’s the best spot in the house.

There is one restaurant that draws me out of my urban cocoon and into the burbs of Ste‑Foy for tasty cocktails and a playlist that’s straight out of the 90s. The interior is eclectic, the drinks menu is creative, and with all those great tunes I dare you not to have a good time.
