Pub des Borgia

Québec City


This hidden nook of a bar huddles by the cobblestones of Old Lower Town and, on the inside, seems to exemplify the colonial coziness you'd expect of drinking establishments in this area. With that said, while the interior has a cellar-esque quality, the adjoining patio adds a bit of fresh air and Rue du Petit-Champlain people-watching.
