Chocolaterie Ice Cream Desserts & Sweets

Mentioned in: Where to Find Hot Drinks to Warm Up in Quebec City?

Review Summary

Chocolats Favoris is described as offering a very large selection of chocolate coated ice creams in many flavors, with high quality and an engaging concept. The store is pleasant and well organized, with a friendly and patient team. A vegan vanilla oat ice cream is noted as not good, with taste and texture not meeting expectations and a texture of small water crystals, and it did not hold on the cone when dipped, while the chocolate remains good and thick. Availability can be an issue as chocolate ice cream can run out before closing. Overall Chocolats Favoris is seen as excellent and among the best places for sweets, albeit pricey, with great service and delicious products that are already among favorites.View restaurant profile

Chocolaterie Ice Cream Desserts & Sweets

Mentioned in: Where to Find Hot Drinks to Warm Up in Quebec City?

Review Summary

Chocolats Favoris is praised for quality ingredients, a cozy ambiance, and an elegant range of chocolate dips that elevate the ice cream experience, with the Blitz often highlighted as a standout vanilla and chocolate combo. The staff are described as friendly and efficient, the service reliable, and the options for customization generous. Portions and prices are generally reasonable, though some reviews call the prices very high and note occasional inconsistency in portions or stock issues. The seating is limited indoors with a terrace outside, and parking is ample, which helps, while weather can push customers to the car for a colder day. A health concern is mentioned in one visit where a cone was handed with unwashed hands, raising hygiene worries. Overall, it comes across as a popular, indulgent destination with strong chocolate offerings and dependable quality, best enjoyed on nice days or when looking for a dessert with a decadent touch, while keeping hours and availability in mind.View restaurant profile

Au Coeur du Pain

Sherbrooke

Bakery Pastries Ice Cream Sandwiches

Review Summary

Overall, reviews of Au Coeur du Pain present a bakery with strong croissants and a wide range of products, though some items disappoint relative to price. Almond croissant and pistachio chocolate croissant are repeatedly praised, as are the raspberry croissant and the pain au chocolat, and the fougasse is often called excellent. The shop is noted for friendly staff, good service, and a broad selection that includes sandwiches and other bakery items, with many describing the experience as enjoyable and the products delicious. At the same time, some pastries misfire, with a mille-feuille tasting of the freezer and several desserts criticized for texture or balance, and there are remarks about rising prices and occasional shortages of items like turnovers. The two locations reportedly offer different atmospheres, with one feeling more modern and efficient but less artisanal and more distant, while the other is described as more intimate and authentic. In sum, the bakery is admired for its beauty, its array of products and moments of excellence, but there are calls for improved consistency and value as the menu and prices evolve.View restaurant profile
