About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Primary Colours is a cozy neighbourhood resto & bar in the heart of Britannia, right next to our sister spot, Monogram Coffee just behind Chinook Mall. Supplying only the good stuff from daytime to dinnertime: feel-good favourites, sourced from producers we know by name, made with Asian-Canadian techniques and flavours we love. Think classic breakfast sandos, saucy pasta, natural wines, and house-made desserts, served alongside our award-winning coffee program.

    We chose the feed me option and it was one of the best meals I have ever had. I would pick that again. The service was great, I felt like I was a MVP customer .

    I had an excellent Mother’s Day brunch experience! The food was delicious and the manager was kind enough to turn the music down when my mom requested it.

    Fantastic food offerings and calm atmosphere. Not too noisy even when busy. The waitstaff could be a little quicker, but we’re attentive and welcoming otherwise

    Good, not great. A bit short of wait staff on a Saturday. Nice selection of Canadian wines. But no rum on the drink menu as eveything Canadian sourced.
