Purple House

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.

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.

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

Our place for coffee and conversation whenever we visit Gananoque.

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.

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

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.

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

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!

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
