Le Bilboquet

Cute bistro to stop at while browsing Pointe Claire Village
Everything about the place felt like home (not MY home but how I would imagine a non-​ethnic household)
The experience
— Greeted by the friendly owner and made aware of the specials
— Ordered an apetizing looking turkey, apple, walnut sandwich for two. (Neither wanted a full sandwich, just a quick bite
— Sat on the terasse as the owner paninni-​ed our sandwich
— We each received a basket with our sandwich halves along with some carrot & celery sticks. There was nothing overly fancy about it. Instead it was the care and attention to detail on the owners part that contributed significantly to the experience
— The sandwich was quite tasty and evidently made from fresh ingredients.
I left very pleased with the food and service and would gladly return next time I’m shopping PCV

Charming ice cream parlour — that also serves light lunch — in the heart of Pointe-​Claire village. Surprisingly, even while avoiding the bread, my peanut-​allergic toddler found plenty to eat here when my family stopped by for lunch. All of the salads and soups are made in house. The kale salad was refreshing and the Italian wedding soup with mini meatballs was tasty, although other items, like the quinoa salad and egg salad sandwich, were a bit more bland. We did very much enjoy our chicken and roast veggie sandwich on a ciabatta bun, and the ham and cheese croissant was dependable.
Complete with a dessert of mini ice cream cones with flavours like salted caramel and maple taffy, we had an enjoyable meal for $ 40. Not exactly cheap, but we left satisfied and were highly pleased by the delightful and friendly service from the owner. A solid café, with ice cream and sorbets being their specialty. Give this place a try!

We tried this place after visiting Notre Dame. The place looks very charming from the outside, and is the same on the inside. You’ll see pretty little cupcake lined up, as well as ice cream.
We got a cupcake and ice cream, and both were good (not great, but good). We enjoyed the variety of flavors offered… apparently so did everyone else and a lot of the cupcake flavors were sold out, which was disappointing. The prices are also a little more than we were expecting to pay.
Another disappointment was the seating. There really isn’t enough during busy times. We were lucky to snag seats as people were leaving, but many patrons sit with coffee and a laptop for an extended period of time, so the «seat turn over rate» isn’t very promising.
English speakers: The flavors are listed mostly in French, but most are easy enough to figure out. If not, all staff speakers English very well (as does most of Montréal)

Le bilboquet c’est le pendant pointeclairien du Point G Montréalais. D’ailleurs les deux sont reliés. Pour ceux qui n’ont pas encore la chance de connaître l’un ou l’autre voici en gros à quoi vous attendre: une déco joyeuse et colorée, des glaces faites maison, et surtout, surtout des macarons! Mais attention hein, pas le macaron à deux cents! Ze macaron, celui qui est cher mais qui a tellement ce petit goût de reviens-​y qu’on né peut pas s’empêcher d’en acheter treize à la douzaine! Vous voyez de quoi je parle? Et comme si le fait de vendre des petites saletés savoureuses n’était pas déjà suffisamment une tentation, ces diables là en ont profité pour les décliner à tous les goûts: fraise, chocolat noisette, caramel au beurre salé, lime basilic, etc. Ma préférence va aux chocolats, mais je vous laisse trouver la vôtre par vous-​même!
Pour ce qui est de reste des articles, j’ai aussi testé le chocolat chaud qui est plutôt quelconque et les biscuits qui sont pas mal mais de quoi se relever la nuit… Non, vraiment, si vous venez ici, goûtez plutôt les macarons!
