Le Champlain, 100 years of expertise

This year, Le Champlain restaurant is celebrating its 100th anniversary. It’s the perfect opportunity to discover this iconic culinary experience from the Château Frontenac in a setting that unites historic charm and contemporary design. Embark on a gastronomical journey where the St. Lawrence River is a common theme: products from the St. Lawrence Valley are on the menu, there is a view of the river and of course, the restaurant bears the name of the famous explorer Samuel de Champlain, who travelled on the St. Lawrence. History, gastronomy and panoramic views… all together in one of Québec City’s best restaurants.

Choose either the Discovery menu and taste the full range of Chef Tristan Ratcliffe Lambert’s culinary talents or the à la carte menu to enjoy a specific dish. Enhance your experience with an impressive selection of exclusive award-winning wines lauded by the prestigious American Wine Spectator magazine and add a touch of the exceptional to your meal.

Now a century after it opened, Le Champlain, a Selected restaurant by the Michelin Guide Québec in 2025 and 2026, continues to champion the culinary arts in the heart of Old Québec.
