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 were seated, and told our server would be taking care of us. Fifteen minutes went by. No one even looked at our table. Staff were happily servering others and seating/taking care of new tables. Even the General Manager ignored us. Very disappointed. We were looking forward to trying Primary Colours. We usually eat out at the plaza several times a week, but we certainly won't be wasting time here again.

    Wonderful meal, wonderful evening. The food was excellent. I highly recommend the wood grilled chicken with brown butter and yogurt sauce - generous portion and SO delicious. I also had a Marigold (nonalcoholic cocktail) and it was just lovely.

    The food continues to be prepared and presented very well and the Monogram coffee helps keep the rating high. Excellent experience.
