Walk-ins are always welcome! Reservations suggested.
Our mission is simple: to celebrate the abundance coming from our friends, their fields, and the magnificent wealth available to us, both from Québec and from coast to coast. We see ourselves as a connection between farmers, creators, and a truly memorable meal. The principles of simplicity, sustainability, and seasonality guide everything we do at La Petite Primerose, from the presentation of dishes, to uncorking bottles, to creating our cocktails.

    From day one, we have wanted this little restaurant to be a space where anyone can feel comfortable & welcomed. Classic French cuisine is the root of this ethos - consistent, familiar and even nostalgic flavours from the tried & true feel good classics, yet slightly elevated with a touch of whimsy. Whether you are up for a curated culinary experience with our 4 & 7 Course tasting menus (Fri & Sat evenings), or prefer to choose your own adventure with our 3-course Table D’hote menu (Wed & Thurs evenings), or are in search of an upscale lunch à la carte menu (Thur - Sat); we have you covered! Our menus are composed entirely to showcase the best local products in Lanark County & the Ottawa Valley and are tailored monthly to best celebrate the tastes of the season. What’s more is that we tie it all together with the best small town, friendly, warm and courteous service around. Just like at a good friend’s house; we look forward to welcoming you to our kitchen!
