Carrera Café in winter:
The cocooning experience in Petit-Champlain

When the cold settles over Old Québec and snow covers the cobblestones, Carrera Café transforms into a warm refuge. The it alien winter meets the Québec winter.

WINTER MAGIC

Petit-Champlain under the snow

Few places in the world turn winter into a spectacle like Québec. Petit-Champlain under the snow is perhaps the most beautiful version of the neighborhood: string lights, snowy facades, silent alleys.

And at the heart of this winter scene, Carrera Café shines through its fogged windows, espresso aromas filling the cold street. Just push the door open.

COLD SEASON

Winter drinks

✦ THE WINTER STAR

Winter hazelnut latte

Double espresso, velvety milk, artisanal hazelnut syrup. Cream like a cloud, warmth like a sigh.

It alien hot chocolate: Dense, velvety, almost black. A Neapolitan classic.
Winter cappuccino: Thicker foam, a touch of cinnamon, deep espresso.
Homemade mulled wine: Homemade recipe, Charlevoix spices, orange and clove. Québec winter in a cup.
COCOONING

The cocooning atmosphere

Winter reveals an extra dimension of Carrera Café: warm lights against the pale blue outside, armchairs like intimate enclaves, soft music mixed with the sounds of the espresso machine.

THE WINTER ATMOSPHERE

“At -20°C outside, Carrera is the warmest place in Québec. Not just in temperature.”

THE BARISTA'S TIP

The ideal drink after the cold

After a walk through the snowy alleys, let your hands warm up on a cappuccino. The foam is warm, not burning. The first touch on the lips: soft. That’s real cocooning.
