Named in honour of the classic cocktail — and as a nod to the French Quarter of New Orleans — Vieux Carré is a “speakeasy” style bar just steps from Place Royale in Old Québec. Filling a long-awaited need in the neighbourhood, this intimate, softly lit venue offers stunning views of Place de Paris and the St. Lawrence River. Here, the bar and kitchen meet in a refined yet relaxed setting, where exceptional cocktails and inventive cuisine come together to create unique and festive moments.
Our menu highlights reimagined classics with a contemporary twist: shared plates, elevated local products, and perfectly paired flavours designed to complement our mixology creations. Each cocktail tells its own story — blending timeless traditions with modern daring — crafted by a team passionate about the art of bartending.
More than just a bar, Vieux Carré is a place of gathering, discovery, and celebration. In an elegant and friendly atmosphere, we invite you to enjoy an experience where creativity and hospitality intertwine seamlessly.
Escape to a cozy hideaway with a hushed ambiance, perfect for savoring the present moment.
