Visitors can obtain anything from a snack to a full meal in the Museum's spacious cafeteria or its elegant restaurant, Café du Musée, both of which have a spectacular view of the Ottawa River and Parliament Hill. In summer there is al fresco dining on terraces.

Caffè Ritazza features espresso based coffee drinks, while Café Express offers sandwiches, salads, hot dogs, popcorn and beverages.

Hours of opening

Those preferring to bring their own lunches can use the Lunch Box, near Group Reception.

Food and drink are permitted only in the Museum's designated areas.
