The full bar serves modern, traditional and original signature cocktails (with often weekly new creations in this category).
The bistro inspired design of Le P’tit Laurent is notable for its Venetian plaster walls, pressed tin ceiling, chandeliers, wood flooring, a 1940s art deco style wood-topped bar, banquette seating and the reproductions of stylized and classic French advertising posters adorning the walls. The restaurant seats 40 guests, plus 8 at the bar.
