158 Rue Notre-Dame-de-l'île, Gatineau, QC J8X 3T1, Canada
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently visited La Petite Épicerie in Gatineau, QC, and I can confidently say it was an extraordinary dining experience! This charming little sandwich shop exceeded all my expectations. I ordered a sandwich (#3) and a soup, and they were truly out of this world! The sandwich was crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, bursting with flavor in every bite. The bread was perfectly toasted and had an amazing texture, while the fillings were generous and skillfully balanced. The lentil soup was equally impressive—rich and hearty, it was the perfect companion to my sandwich. Each spoonful was comforting and flavorful, clearly made from scratch with love. The atmosphere of La Petite Épicerie is warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot to enjoy a meal or grab something to go. The staff was also incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall wonderful experience. If you're in Gatineau, don't miss out on this gem of a sandwich shop! I can't wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings. Highly recommended! 🍽️🥪✨
It's like in it's name, it's a small, crowded space, but the people who work there were nice, and I personally got a slushie, which actually tasted pretty good! And after a long walk, having a nice ice cream and cold drink is refreshing! Overall 9/10! <3 Would recommend!
Delicious sandwiches and great prices! We will definitely be back! We got #11 on jalapeño bread and #16 on rosemary, and it was so good!
The bread was incredibly fresh and the sandwiches were awesome! 🥪 They have so much seating outside, their patio is massive! Beef and Swiss sandwich #12- (4.5/5) -olive bread was incredible and so fresh it must have been made today! 🥖 -flavor of sandwich was really nice with fresh toppings and not too much sauce -could have had a bit more meat and they do not have red onions Sopresata, prosciutto ham, Capicolo havarti sandwich #3 - (4/5)
It's a very small but familiar place. With a groceries store and the sandwiches are fantastic! Highly recommended for breakfast or a quick dinner .
The service was really fast despite there being a line. The sandwich is big, bread is fresh and soft, price is amazing for what you get and considering how much places are charging for a meal these days. It will be my new go-to spot for when I'm in the office and need a quick bite to eat. I'm very happy with it.
Absolutely incredible sandwiches! The small deli at the front delivers big on flavor! Reasonably priced, good portions, with fresh ingredients made on the spot. The bread they use is delicious and perfect for deli sandwiches. Lettuce/vegetable are fresh and seasoned, leading to and excellent compliment for the meats. The owner is very friendly and accommodating - if I lived in the area I would definitely eat here at least twice a week! Highly recommend!
Delicious sandwiches. A good list of options, including vegetarian options. Reasonable price. In the summer, this would be a good place to grab a sandwich and eat it at nearby park. Friendly owner, who understood my broken French. There are tables and chairs inside, very minimalist. I would recommend sandwiches here.
Great place for a good sandwich
Excellent sandwiches!
Little deli makes great sandwiches
Very good sandwiches
Wow its so cute
Update your hours on google. Came at 9PM and it was closed.
The sandwiches are very good. They are well stocked, inexpensive and the food is fresh.
Im so hungry, Ive been waiting to go back for 2 weeks!!!
Great price, fast service, very nice deli meat sandwich.
I took sandwich #2 with chicken ham and then marinated beef it was excellent it added mayo and then tomatoes and lettuce
Delicious soup and excellent sandwich!
We got some fresh air by chance during our walk. The welcome is warm and you will find a wide choice of sandwiches made to order. Lovely favorite.
Small convenience store with homemade pastries and a charcuterie stall. A terrace with tables in front. Very friendly welcome.
Great value! The sandwiches are substantial and at a very reasonable price. Theres outdoor seating with umbrellas at the tables.
Was it closed before the registered hours?
Sunday July 28, 24, my daughter and I purchased 2 Sandwiches from the large selection available. We were recommended this place which looks a little ordinary, but that doesnt mean anything, super stocked sandwiches, choice of breads and ingredients. My daughter and I highly recommend it, either for picnics or for the office. Enjoy it all
Very tasty and affordable sandwiches! Very quick service as well.
Convenience store deli. Owner was great, sanwiches are fresh and delicious. Great spot for a quick bite. Around 15$ per sandwich, pick a number off the board and then a bread and you re all set!
Best sandwiches in town, service is fast and friendly I recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat well
Great sandwich & good value. Try the baklava - its redefined by baseline for what baklava should be
Warm welcome . 20 choices of sandwich at a very reasonable price. Wide variety of quality cold meats as well as various fresh breads (we chose rosemary with #9). We had a blast!!
Best sandwiches bar none - Best sandwiches without exception
Very delicious sandwiches!
We came here based on other reviews, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The place itself was very small and cramped, and was like a NYC bodega. The sandwiches were truly amazing. The bread was the star of the show. Some of the best bread Ive ever eaten. All the other ingredients were very fresh and delicious as well. Also, bonus points for the guy behind the counter dealing with my 5yos request for a mayo sandwich.
Best sandwiches ins gatineau
Fresh and good sandwich! The neighborhood is quiet and that s very nice
Delicious sandwich.. Worth the price!! Food
Got the very famous sandwich and they are famous for a reason, deliciously and perfectly made loved it will go back
I had a turkey sandwich, it was not fresh, quality 0, he did not heat the sandwich, expensive for nothing
The sandwich with marinated beef and lentil soup was good! I recommend it for a quick eat or takeout:)
The hours on Google Maps are wrong, they actually close at 8pm (not 9pm). Im a bit sad about it as Im back in the area/province for the first in 7 years & was looking forward to one of their fanstastic sandwiches (and leaving tomorrow morning). Currently standing outside the shop with a sad face, lol.
Very good sandwich and friendly service
I was so amazed at the food in this place! There are a few dozen sandwich choices, a daily soup, and a convenience stores worth of drinks but the BREAD! Its on my list of stops for the area now. $8 for a fat sandwich. I ordered 8 lunches when I was there and they were made fresh in a few minutes. The jalapeno and cheese bread was stunning. Not spicy but flavourful. Overall, amazing sandwich place. A bit crammed to eat with 10+ people but clean and outstanding food. Highly recommend
I Got the #1 on rosemary. It was a sandwich that you would expect from a Deli. Careful for parking, the By law is going through a life crisis.
Best sandwich Ive had in a long time! My picky 5 and 6 year old gave it 2 thumbs up. Kid-friendliness: ingredients. fresh indgredients. Lots of snack and drink options
Great food, would love to come back
Very clean and organized deli style bodega. Very friendly gentleman served us the best lentil soup and fresh made deli sandwiches, large portions for a good price. Will go back and recommend this place. Big menu of deli sandwiches.
Yum!! Exactly what I want was looking for. Got a #1 Both delicious! Food : 5/5
Best sandwich shop in the Ottawa area! Fight me, Di Rienzo!
The sandwiches are absolutely delicious!
Best sandwiches ever :)
Nous y allons p pour aller chercher les meilleures sandwiches à gatineau. Toujours rapide et fraîche. Les pains sont frais du matin et les viandes coupées sur place. Le prix est super abordable et des gens des deux côtés de la rive se déplace pour aller se chercher à dîner. C est un petit endroit caché avec une excellente sandwicherie.
Went at 6:35pm on Sunday and it was closed although it indicated that the opening hour on Sunday is until 7pm on their website.
Absolutely lovely! Great sandwiches!
This place is a Gem of a Sandwich Shop. Hassan is very friendly and his Sandwiches are well known to be the freshest and best around. I highly recommend this place if you are in the area. Affordable and healthy foods. A+ Service.
Nice sandwiches great pre ski snack
Yummy sandwiches made fresh while you wait. Very quick service. Good value for the cost.
The sandwich was très bien! Was recommended the rosemary bread and was not disappointed. Much cheaper and better value than other places in the area.
good variety of sandwich. great price
The sandwiches are excellent! The bread is fresh. The veggie version is very delicious. I highly recommend it. Vegetarian options: Marinated vegetables, cheese, lettuce, tomato, spicy eggplant
Fast, good and inexpensive.
They use Artisans dynamite for sandwich bread.
It s not as good as the reviews claim. The bread is quite dry and hard. The ingredients are normal too.
Best sandwiches weve had since I dont know when. THANKS
Excellent sandwich, great discovery to recommend
Very small place, good food and freindly service.
Excellent sandwich with fresh ingredients
Best Sandwiches in the Galaxy
Great small shop serving fresh made sandwiches right before you eyes. Don t let the line up worry you, service is fast line moves fast
An absolute gem in the old city of Hull, I used to be a huge fan of The Old German Deli in downtown Ottawa, its closed now and I was sad. But La Ptite Épicerie is absolutely awesome and actually surpasses any sandwich shop Ive ever tried, if you work in the old Hull or youre at the civilization museum, its a short 5 minutes walk and the sandwiches are EXTREMELY GOOD.... Very very recommended, stop by today!
Excellent sandwiches, fresh and great choices! Nice service!
The best sandwiches in old Hull! Small grocery store with lots of unique finds as well. I highly suggest dining here if you find yourself at the Museum of Civilization or work in Portage!
Ive never eaten a sandwich as good as these in my life.
How haven t I heard of this place before because for the price and freshness you get your monies worth for sure and I m a lover of all kinds of sandwiches. I had the #16 on a rosemary bun and it was amazing. I can say this is my go to sandwich place in the Ottawa area by far for sure.
Best classic sandwich spot in Hull.
Pretty good deli sandwich served here. Lots of variety to choose from. They also have international groceries here. Mostly Italian food. Some Greek. Baklava is pretty good.
Not just sandwiches, theyre super sandwiches! So good and big, they are real delights. You eat one in the morning, youre not hungry until the afternoon!
Best sandwich in Hull.
This is the first time in my life that Ive done a Google review. These sandwiches made me want to fly haha. A must! Incredible!
Extra good owner food.
A stop before hitting the road for a good sandwich. Really very good and affordable. Large selection of sandwiches prepared on site, fresh products and very well stocked. Even if the place doesnt look like much, its worth stopping there.
Great find! Really delicious sandwich!
So good, the whole little family loved it. And my daughter didnt eat sandwiches... Before
Amazing sandwiches with a variety of breads..made to measure.
Excellent sandwiches, fair prices, locally owned.
Wonderful sandwiches in a no-frills cozy unassuming atmosphere. Nice middle eastern groceries there for purchase as well. Sandwiches freshly made and thoroughly enjoyable. Lady behind the counter was very sweet.
Amazing sandwiches at an amazing price with amazing service. I wouldve taken a picture but I ate it too fast!
Do not recommend!
This place has pretty good sandwiches.
Honestly, the best sandwiches in town!
Best sandwich I ve ever had
Good sandwiches with good proportions of meat, cheese, and veggies (but how hard is it to make a basic sandwich - protip: ask for Dijon or regular mustard if you want it, otherwise, its just mayo). However, my favourite item here is their daily lentil soup. I give this soup 5 stars. There is also a cool assortment of jarred condiments for sale that are Mediterranean and Middle Eastern. Lastly, there is ample patio seating during the warmer weather.
This is more of a shop than a restaurant. We ordered two vegetarian sandwiches. Taste was ok. They have quite a few options to choose from. If you are looking for a restaurant feel with good ambience, this might not be the best place. There are some plastic tables and chairs out front. They are not very well maintained. The inside of the shop itself is cramped with narrow aisles.
Walked over here today as I was craving a delicious sandwich, however they are closed as they are on vacation until September 6.
They make the best sandwiches I have ever tasted in my entire life!!!!! Everything is fresh and delicious! Very fast service!!!!
Delicious sandwich. Price quality hard to beat.
Best sandwich I have found and good prices
Fresh and delicious sandwiches, a good choice after visiting the museum, or buy one and sit by the river to eat and look at the scenery~ There are many people at noon, so you need to wait for a while However, the bread is too hard and a bit embarrassing. I don t know why. There are more than ten kinds of choices. Look at the menu and make it on site. It s pretty good.
Great little sandwich place if you just need a quick bite.
Good morning, Charming little convenience store. Service is excellent. The sandwiches are delicious to eat I recommend this small grocery store for its sandwiches that you can eat on site, especially in summer, or to bring with you. Thanks to the people who work there and Ive been going there for years and the service is always so friendly. THANKS
An amazing un-expected find! I must admit the sandwiches here are amazing! Filled to the brim and super tasty! The owner is a super friendly and funny guy making the atmosphere of this place unique. Now if you want to eat something with fork and knife not your kind of place. Overall though for the rest I highly recommend it!
Best sandwich in town
Absolutely delicious!
Super good sandwich
Consistently delicious and great value. I always make a point to stop in when were on the dark side of the river.
Super good sandwich on exquisite bread
Gosh this place is a hidden gem! I love the sandwiches here, so tasty and so affordable. They are very quick too! It is one of my favorite activities to grab a sando from here and picnic at the park.
Sandwiches here are simple but well worth it! Love it! A hidden gem.
Walking in, you would never guess this place is the source of delicious sandwiches. Its a corner store! But if you know, you know. They have a small menu board to one side of the door, and a sandwich bar to the other. The sandwiches are spectacular. Theyre in a similar style to La Bottega in Ottawa, but with their own unique flavour. Everything is fresh and the bread is 10/10. We like to stop on our way to Gatineau Park (or on our way home). Its always a treat.
Best sandwich in town! The choice of bakery bread and toppings makes each visit unique!
I don t normally write reviews here however this was a great sandwich. I m not sure how this place isn t sold out everyday. The bread made the sandwich!!!! I will be back!!
Friendly guy and delicious sandwiches Just wanted to update my review to say thank you! Ive had probably over 100 sandwich / soup combos from this spot - always fantastic.
Not too satisfied
Best sandwiches EVER ! Litteraly so tastyy, service is 100%. I recommend it to anyone, fast service & reaaal good food.
Such an unexpected place to take away delicious sandwiches. Great bread especially. Fresh and friendly.
Small little convenience store with sandwhiches and soups. The sandwhich I got was big and tasty, a little pricy but no more expensive than Subway, but tastier and more fresh!
Best sandwiches, I always get one whenever Im visiting
Always fresh and cant beat the price ! Staff is always super pleasant too :-) Hulls best kept sandwich secret ;)
So delicious.
The best place for a really good sandwich.
Very good!
A little gem
Nummies! Wow, what a great experience. The sandwiches with fresh bread are delicious!! Its worth the detour.
The sandwiches are excellent, the owners welcoming and friendly. The best place for a good fresh sandwich in the region!
Best sandwich in town!
From the outside, it doesn t look the best (maybe they could upgrade it a little bit?) but based on a recommendation I tried the sandwich and it was really great. Quite a good surprise and you would never guess if you just walk or drive outside.
Awesome subs
Shabby place and nothing to do with a restaurant or a grocery store/bakery... Move on if you dont want to be disappointed
Vegetarian options: Légumes marinés
Some of the best sandwiches in the Ottawa/Gatineau region.
Awesome place for large fresh made sandwiches. Went there on the recommendation of a friend while visiting the museum and was not disappointed on the quality of the sandwich from a friendly and helpful owner. Skip the overpriced museum cafe and slip over a block to support a great small business. They have lots of outdoor tables to enjoy the sun and your meal.
Within close walking distance of the Museum of History. Located inside a variety store. Fresh sandwiches, excellent price point. A sandwich and beer for $10, can t beat that. Friendly owner too.
Love these kind of spots! Fresh bread good service and a good sandwich. Very well priced.
Best sandwich in town, the man with the mustache puts a lot of love and quality into the sandwiches. Very recommended!
Wow! What an amazing sandwich! The owner is awesome. I ll definitely come back!
Sandwiches are very delicious.
Delicious sandwich!
Very nice address. Good sandwiches.
Would it be possible to change opening hours during your vacation on Google? THANKS
For the same price as Subway you get a sandwich that tastes even better and more filling! In addition to encouraging local, what could be better!
Its literally the best sandwich Ive ever had in my life. I dont know how its possible that its so delicious. This is a true gem and prize inside Gatineau.
Really good pickled eggplant sandwich, recommended!
Super nice man who works there. I forgot my wallet and he let me take my purchases. Sugar and sugar because I was making cookies for my little students. Thank you the P tit epicerie du Quartier, and my first and second year students thank you too,
The sandwiches are big and filling! Finely sliced ingredients, a simple delight and more than 10 choices of sandwiches made on site!
Love their sandwiches!
Cozy convenience store where I get a cup of coffee and a sweet cake .
Believe the hype
Literally the best sandwiches in the universe.
Best sandwiches in Gatineau.
Really good eats, prices are worth the product 4suR
Mouth watering sandwiches
It makes one of the best sandwiches I ve ever had. It s not expensive. Best kept secret. I ve been coming here for 15 years and I ve never had a problem.
The best sandwiches
Delicious
Great, well-stocked place that offers delicious sandwiches! The staff is very pleasant, thank you for this moment!
Delicious sandwich
Best sandwiches! Had the pleasure of living across.... Not one single regret. Hands down, I would slap my mama for one
Awesome sandwiches
Great sandwiches! Highly recommended.
A little Jewel from Cartier has Keep YES YES
Their vegetarian sandwich is one of the best I ve ever had
Number 9 on olive bread was amazing
Their sandwiches are amazing. Ingredients are fresh and very generous with the meat. Best part is the bread though, try the olive loaf, you wont be disappointed.
Nothing special. I cant share the good recommendations. The lentil soup I had was good, but the store is quite dirty and the woman at the counter was coughing the whole time.
Super good sandwich...go go go
This place is a depanneur with a deli. The sandwiches are awesome and reasonably priced . I recommend le numero deux sur pain fromage et jalapeño.
i really love the place! amazing sandwiches and soups and it has a lot of nice sodas! i love supporting local businesses!
If you have not been here yet, you must. Subway should learn from the owner how to make sandwiches. They are not good, they are fantastic. Not only the ingredients are good, the bread (made in house) is unique and delicious, and so many varieties. Please treat yourself, promise me!
Best sandwiches in the entire Gatineau area!!
Love the bread, the best in Ottawa/Gatineau
Fantastic sandwiches, highly recommended a visit. The bread and sandwiche selection is ideal.
Friendly place.
Best sandwiches in the city by far
The sandwiches!! A must
