Le Petit Wellington is a successful rebranding of Wellington Street's classic Laterna snack bar.
While irradiating a hole in the wall aura, this humble restaurant offers a simple but delicious menu of burgers, fries, poutines, & a few other items. The menu is tight, the choices may be few, but you are guaranteed tasty freshness in both ingredients & preparation.
The poutines & burgers are really good & prices are decent. As of the time of writing this review, the house offers a soup, fries, smash burger & a soda can for 13,99$. Good value.
The place is clean & offers comfortable seats. The clientele is typical'Verdun' but it leads an extra eccentric charm to the place.
It took me 15 years to come here, I plan to make it a regular haunt.
The food was amazing ! I especially loved the smash burgers, they were so good with just the right amount of sauce so it doesn't become soggy. Staff is also very kind & welcoming . Can't wait to come back & try the steak poutine !

I had such a great experience at Le Petit Wellington! The hospitality really stood out-while we were waiting for our food, they kindly offered us soup, which was such a thoughtful touch.
The food itself was fantastic. I highly recommend the smash burger & the poutine both were absolutely delicious.
Every single time we go service & food are on point. Today my son went & he told me that they were vraiment gentil avec moi. Their smash burger & poutine are next level :)
I hate going to places 30 minutes before they close. We ended up staying 15 minutes past closing. It was cold -18 nd my wife & I wanted to try this place out. One word for the owner: welcoming. Amazing service, food was delicious, had the steak poutine. We spoke to Rakib one of the employees, he was warm, kind & welcoming as well. I will definitely be coming back with my wife but earlier next time
Really nice restaurant with a warm & welcoming atmosphere. The staff were very friendly & seated us promptly. We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary soup, which was delicious, as well as free bottles of water. The burger & steak poutine were both very good & well prepared. Overall, a great experience,would definitely recommend this place.
Great place & very friendly staff. Kids enjoyed the soup, popcorn chicken poutine, & Caesar salad. Smash burger & fries well made. This place is a gem.
Originaires de Bangladesh, les 3 serveurs & cuisiniers servent de la cuisine locale notamment de la Poutine.
Nous avons bien apprécié le potage offert avant le repas.
Cette délicate attention fait chaud au coeur surtout lorsqu'il fait un temps maussade en hier.
La nourriture est bonne & la quantité est plus que satisfaisante.

10/10. If you are looking for a place to eat some good poutine, this is the spot!! It was super fresh & tasty. I also ate their soup & smash burger & it was great. They greeted me with the best hospitality. Will be coming back when I'm in the area again.
I was so impressed with Le Petit Wellington. We came in for two poutines, a treat after a long day of walking & we were treated like kings. They served us soup while we waited - it was delicious. The poutines were nothing short of stellar. Fresh potatoes, plenty of cheese & a delicious gravy. Very impressed & we will be back!
