Great take-out food in Quebec City
Where do you go when you don't feel like cooking or are short on time, and don't feel like eating greasy, salty fast food? We've got your answer! Here's where to pick up savoury and healthy snacks at good prices.
Galette Libanaise
880 Rue Père-Marquette, Québec, QC G1S 2A4On the road to becoming a chain as its total number of locations multiplies (including spots on Grande Allée, Maguire and Sainte-Foy), La Galette libanaise serves authentic street food dishes that are unique to Quebec. Here, soft pita is served like a folded pizza and filled with seasoned meat and fresh accompaniments to satisfy even the most voracious of appetites.
Maison Thailandaise
4307, rue Saint-Félix, Québec, QC G1Y 1X6Do you feel like having Thai food but are too tired to make it at home? Stop by La Maison Thaï (in Cap-Rouge or on boulevard René-Lévesque East) and choose one of the vacuum-packed meals to be reheated at home. Leave it for six minutes in hot water and you'll think you’re in Bangkok!
Morena Epicerie Traiteur
1040, av Cartier, Québec, QC G1R 2S4This Italian grocery store and osteria (bistro) on avenue Cartier offers a counter of prepared meals and antipasti, where you can stock up on arancini and sandwiches. We like the "pasta to go" concept, with five kinds of pasta and eight house-made sauces to choose from.
Nina Pizza Napolitaine
410, rue Saint-Anselme, Québec, QC G1K 5T2This restaurant’s authentic wood oven Neapolitan pizza has quickly elevated itself to cult status through a legion of faithful foodies. If you don’t have time to eat in at their location on rue Saint-Anselme, take it to go by ordering in advance or upon arrival.
La Mangue Verte resto - pâtisserie -traiteur
6655, boul Pierre-Bertrand, Québec, QC G2K 1M1Brilliantly combining the spicy flavours of Reunion Island with North American cuisine, La Mangue Verte (on boulevard Pierre-Bertrand and Halles du Petit Quartier) offers delicious ready-to-eat meals that are both fresh and healthy. They also carry boxed lunches.
Sushi Taxi
813 av Cartier, Québec, QC G1R 2R8This chain has spread everywhere in Quebec, but in Quebec City, Sushi Taxi remains a safe bet. Although it may not closely resemble the cuisine of its Japanese ancestors, the creative sushi is very fresh and inventive. You can stop by and grab something to eat at the avenue Cartier, Charlesbourg or Lebourgneuf locations.
Les Colocs Café Resto
400E 3Av, Québec, QC G1L 2W1Both a great bistro and take-out counter, Les Colocs is a pure Limoilou product: unpretentious and warm. Whether from the 3rd Avenue or the chemin de la Canardière location, you can pick up a sandwich of the day or a dish prepared with love, and accompany it with pouding chômeur (poor man's pudding), the best in town.
