The best artisan shops of Petit-Champlain: local and unique shopping in Québec

Petit-Champlain is one of the best artisan shopping addresses in Québec. Jewelry, ceramics, textiles, artworks: a guide to shops worth visiting, with Carrera Café as your base.

Artisan Petit-Champlain

Petit-Champlain was rebuilt in the 1980s around craftsmanship. Artists' workshops became shops, potters' studios opened their doors, fashion designers chose these alleys as their showcase. Today, it is one of the densest concentrations of Québec craftsmanship in the country.

After an artisan shopping session, Carrera Café is the natural stop: an espresso to recharge, a platter to celebrate a great find.
