Carrera Café bar menu: cocktails & appetizers at Petit-Champlain

After touring Old Quebec, nothing beats a Carrera signature cocktail. Here, the bar is a paddock of flavors where every glass is a victory.

The Bar Spirit
A paddock of flavors
At Carrera, the bar is not an ordinary bar. It’s a ritual, a celebration, a liquid finish line.

Carrera Café is not just a place for morning coffee. From the afternoon, the room transforms: the beans give way to bottles, latte art yields the podium to frosted glasses, and the atmosphere lights up with a different warmth.

Inspired by Italian bars and circuit lounges, the Carrera bar offers a menu built around a simple logic: precise flavors, chosen products, winning combinations.

★ The Carrera Spirit

Like at the pit stop, each cocktail is prepared with millimetric precision. The bartender knows his measures like an engineer knows his data. Each glass is a performance, not an improvisation.

Seasonal Selections
The menu that turns with the circuit
At Carrera, the bar menu follows the calendar. Each season brings its ingredients, moods, and combinations.
✦ Summer Version

The terrace opens, the Spritz flows, iced lattes meet fruity cocktails. Hugo on ice, thyme gin tonic, red fruit mocktails. Petit-Champlain in July, glass in hand, nothing beats that.

✦ Autumn Version

Quebec ice cider takes the stage. Old fashioned with maple syrup, apple negroni, hot amaretto. The palette of fallen leaves in your glass.

✦ Winter Version

Spiced hot wine with citrus, Baileys on ice, reinvented Irish coffee. Outside the storm, inside the warmth of a glass that warms you to the finish line.

✦ Spring Version

Back from the terrace, back to the Spritz. Floral gin, sparkling homemade lemonade, cocktails with fresh herbs. The season of new beginnings, celebrated in a glass.

Alcohol-Free Alternatives
The podium for everyone
At Carrera, not drinking alcohol doesn’t mean giving up pleasure. The mocktail menu is as ambitious as the cocktail menu.

The Carrera bartender treats mocktails with the same seriousness as an espresso. Each combination is designed to offer the complexity, depth, and elegance of a real cocktail, without alcohol.

✽ Alcohol-Free

The Virgin Grand Prix

Sparkling water, lemon, rosemary syrup, cucumber, ice cubes. Fresh, aromatic, structured. The mocktail that makes no apologies for existing.

✽ Alcohol-Free

The Lemonade Paddock

Fresh lemon, hibiscus syrup, sparkling water, mint. Red like the logo, fresh like the terrace in July.

Cocktail & Boards Pairings
The winning combination
Just as a driver chooses tires according to the track, choose your pairing according to your mood.

The Carrera bar menu is designed to interact with the food menu. Each cocktail finds its echo in a board, a focaccia, a cheese.

★ Highlighted Pairing

Ferrari Rouge + Podium Board

The bitterness of Campari meets the richness of Charlevoix Organic Charcuterie. Grapefruit cleanses the palate between slices. The absolute pairing.
