The Purple House Cafe in Gananoque

A+ pizza. Craft beer. What else could you ask for? Desert? The creme brulee is great too.

Nice cozy place. Great pizza right out of the wood oven.

Awesome. Highly recommend the place. Great pizza!

Friendly staff and cozy place. They got a good selection of board games.

Such a great little place. Wonderful staff. Great atmosphere. Tasty food and drinks. Very close to the water and a good spot to grab lunch or dinner before or after the boat cruises. Perfect little pizza! Awesome.

Beautiful garden, eclectic decor. Good thin crust pizzas with wide range of ingredients from pesto base with shrimps and feta to steak with blue cheese. Outdoor pizza oven. Some craft beers and wine (few PEC wines). Unfortunately the bees and flies were attacking us on patio. Pizza 15-18$

Great Pizza. Nice atmosphere.

Cozy and friendly, the fresh pizzas are made right in front of you... I love that smell of a fire and bread

Stopped in for a drink as we wandered the neighborhood. Lovely little garden patio that was cheerful and welcoming. The hostess did not want to allow us a seat; as she said they were all reserved for "eating" customers. We stood in a corner and stole a stool and enjoyed a glass of rose and a beer anyway. Our waitress was wonderful and fun. Loved watching the chef prepare the pizzas in a wood fired oven. They looked amazing. Maybe we will visit again and enjoy one.

The pizza crust is nice and well cooked in a wood oven...however the toppings are not...we had the pepperoni and mushroom and they were still cold, pepperoni looked just dropped on top... the other pizza is supposed to be the preferred one according to the menu : spicy sausages...but here too the sausage chunks were still like raw meet. No sorry not our taste...

We loved this place. Amazing Ambience! The wood fired pizza was the best I've ever had. The water came in cute old jars and we drank from mason jars. The old house had vintage furniture and the gardens were so inviting! We visited for hours.

Great home made style wood fired pizza! Art Deco atmosphere. Clean wool blankets provided on a chilly evening in September!

Great place for pizzas and casual dining. The four of us ordered four different pizzas, which was a lot! Three would have been sufficient, but we devoured them nonetheless. I got the butter chicken pizza and was pleasantly surprised how good it was. We sat outside, close to the brick oven, right next to a little vegetable garden. They came out to grab some basil for our pizza from the garden right next us, it doesn’t get any more fresh than that!

Pizza was fantastic and perfectly cooked 👌 I did prefer the pesto much more then the margarita

There is a reason why residents of Gananoque & the area wait with baited breath for this wood-fired pizza - it simply delicious. Made and cooked in the oven, only a few at a time, so be prepared to sip on delicious drinks and brews, appetizers, and relax on the patio with the tropical atmosphere. Don't expect quick service, this isn't some take out restaurant that is able to make the pizzas quick - so close your eyes, enjoy life, feel the sun, and just sloooow down.Family friendly atmosphere. You won't be sorry you ate here.

Gorgeous and cozy place, very European! Great food and friendly people. They have a lovely pizza oven outside which has a butt!!!! Literally :)

The service was not very good. We had to wait 20 minutes for a table. Then she tells us we had to wait another 20 minutes. I said can we not sit inside. She never offered for us to sit inside. Then we were going to share a piece of cheese cake and decided not to, as we were full. The waitress says "well it's here". What kind of waitress says that. We were very disappointed!

Shared the margherita pizza with a friend. Absolutely amazing! Probably the best pizza I’ve ever had. They’re big enough to share (but you’ll want it all to yourself anyway). The pizza was cooked in a really cool wood burning oven right behind us!

Very nice setting, the terrace as well as inside the building. Pizza was great, even the gluten free dough was delicious. The only down side is the wait time which can be long.

Always the best Pizza if you are into hand crafted, thin crust, wood fired!

Food is good. Reasonable price. Very pretty in the garden. Slow service though.

This is the slowest pizzeria we've ever been in our lives. After queuing for 40 minutes, we ordered two margharitas which are the easiest pizzas to make. One hour after our order we took news about them. The answer of the waitress was « we have huge groups today and your pizzas will arrive in 3.5 minutes ». In real the pizzas arrived 10 minutes after and they were good but not outstanding. The dough was overcooked.If you have a lot of time to waste in a restaurant go there, this is a place for you. For others run away. The icing on the cake is that thanks to that we missed the sunset on the Saint Lawrence river.

Great service and delicious, hand crafted dishes.

Sit in the garden with a sweet and a coffee. Or a beer. A nice break.

Delicious pizza, salads, cider and dessert! They have fantastic service and a very cool patio. If you're visiting Gananoque, you've got to go!

This place is nice but it was very rich of the waitress to charge extra for bringing extra toast since the portion first brought out was tiny. Poor customer service overall detracted from what was a nice day out. Will not be visiting again.

Super nice people, family business, pizza was amazing and lite. See u in a few weeks

Loved this place! Beautiful patio. Caprese pizza and purple house salad were both so delicious. I highly recommend for lunch or dinner, or both!

Great service. Teamwork makes the dream work. Food was good too!

After a long kayak, this place was just perfect. Wood fired pizza was delicious and we really enjoyed the salads. Everything was fresh and made to order. We were there in the summer and the outdoor seating was super cute and charming. The interior seating was super quaint with mismatched furniture etc. They don't take reservations so you will have to wait to be seated but it's worth it.

I had a fantastic pizza here tonight but the food is only half the story as the ladies running the place are just wonderful! Thanks for a wonderful evening out on your last night of the season!

We loved this place! We walked past it a few times without even realizing it was a restaurant, there's no real indication anywhere that it is. We sat outside in the garden, very nice patio! We found the food to be a little overpriced for the size of the pizza but it was delicious!

Awesome outdoor eating area with wood-fired pizza oven. Great for families, affordable!

Super cute laid back vibe, gf options, good food, decent beer/wine options, kid-friendly (blocks, dominos, puppets, patient servers) a huge plus for a lunchtime stop on a Saturday with two crabby hungry kids. We will definitely be back!

Good pizza straight from the fire. Friendly staff and nice outdoor seating

Quaint eatery, with a nice atmosphere. The pizza is very good, with well paired toppings.

This restaurant was recommended to us by someone in town during the afternoon. Pizza sounded appealing as did eating outdoors. Very pleasantly surprised to find they had a wood fired oven on the patio. We split a Margherita pizza, a very fresh seasonal salad with greens, candied nuts, and a maple basalmic dressing. Dessert was a chocolate almond torte. The service was really exceptional. We were greeted and told to sit anywhere we chose. We had menus in a minute, drinks in two or three, and questions answered to boot. Our waitress had to manage a patio full of tables, and there was quite a rush after 5 pm, but she was awesome. We never felt forgotten or like we had to wait. I'd happily go back and would highly recommend the Purple House.

Slow service but good food. Very rustic place.. always full with locals...

If you like pizzas is a MUST! Service was excellent and the outdoor zone is very nice

Super joint we discovered while driving to T.O....just make sure to use their big repellant on muggier nights (it actually adds to the vibe and everyone seems happy spraying up & eating, lol).

Absolutely magnificent and romantic place after the sunset. I would give 6 starts if it would be possible. Pizza made on the wooden stove right at the patio!

Probably the best pizza crust on the planet and we know what we are talking about being famous for our pizza crust in Togo west Africa where we own 2 restaurants. Great pizzas, salads, fresh and organic ingredients! A must try!

An unassuming gem near Gananoque marina featuring Innovative pizzas cooked in their outdoor woodfired pizza oven. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed . . . Like hanging out at your buddy's backyard enjoying pizza along with some local craft beers (wine is also offered).

We had three different types of outdoor oven pizzas as a group. Excellent! Dining outdoors is so appreciated as part of the experience. I would go here for special occasions.

Quaint place. Owner was very friendly. Good service.

My wife and I visited here in Sept of 2018. I would like you as the reader to know that I have visited numerous patios - and this place is absolutely stunning, warm in atmosphere, beautiful and relaxing. If you’re thinking of going here you should!! The pizza was delicious, the salad was fabulous and the owner was incredibly personable and a pleasure to talk with. This is a must visit location if you’re in town!!

My husband ordered the pulled pork pizza and I ordered the berry & walnut salad with maple dressing.. both were very very good. Not just your average "pub grub" as most overrated cafés and pubs have. Service was great and they even have very good water! (I grew up with amazing well water so I've been picky every since). Great atmosphere as well! Close to the Gananoque boat tours, museums, beach, shops, and ice cream. Perfect walking distance between all of these.

It's so enjoyable sitting in the outdoor area in a summer late afternoon

Fantastic fire oven pizzas cooked while you watch from the patio!

Wonderful, cozy cafe, with a great location by the port in Gananoque. Delicious pizzas. Great for a visit after a boat trip!
