Quebec City
Restaurants and bars for filming in Quebec City
Restaurants, bars, and cafés serve as social settings: counters, dining rooms, terraces. They are often shot outside opening hours.
Between the fortified Old Quebec, the ancestral homes of Sillery, and the residential neighbourhoods of Sainte-Foy, the region combines rare heritage with contemporary settings. Productions find both a historic character and an ordinary family backdrop.

Few North American cities offer such authentic period streets and buildings, which draws international historical productions. Locations with character are especially in demand here, and the owner of a historic building holds a setting that is hard to find elsewhere.
The cradle of French America, Quebec City draws productions looking for period settings, stonework, narrow streets, and interiors with character. Shoots are frequent here, from historical features to advertising.
What productions look for in a restaurant or bar
These places are often rented overnight or early in the day, when the business is closed, letting a venue earn revenue during otherwise quiet hours. Productions look for a believable atmosphere: a neighbourhood bar, a bright café, a dining room with character.

How much does renting a restaurant or bar for a shoot in Quebec City cost?
A restaurant or bar in Quebec City typically rents for $1,500 to $5,000 per shoot day. The amount depends on the space, the production, the crew size, and how many days are booked. You set your own rate, and every request states the budget before you accept.
What productions rent restaurants and bars in Quebec City?
Restaurants, bars, and cafés serve as social settings: counters, dining rooms, terraces. They are often shot outside opening hours. In Quebec City, film, television, advertising, music video, and photo shoots all request these spaces, usually for one to five days.
Do I have to be present during the shoot?
That is your choice. Many owners stay on site, others hand over access for the day. Every booking is covered by a signed contract and insurance, and you set the house rules in advance.
What if my restaurant or bar is not glamorous?
That is often an advantage. Productions need spaces that feel real, not staged. An ordinary, authentic restaurant or bar in Quebec City is frequently more useful to a story than a prestige property.
