Manitou Bistro

Manitou Bistro serves more than just food—it fosters healing, connection, and cultural celebration. Suzette “Running Star” Foucault founded the bistro to honor Indigenous strength and resilience through traditional and contemporary cuisine. Located in Renfrew, Ontario, we invite you to experience bold flavors, rich storytelling, and warm hospitality at our Indigenous restaurant.

Suzette drew inspiration from childhood memories in the kitchen with family and elders. She created Manitou Bistro as a tribute to her roots. Every dish carries tradition, love, and the spirit of togetherness.

As one of the few Indigenous restaurants near Ottawa, we create a welcoming space where guests enjoy handcrafted spirits, live music, and thoughtfully prepared meals. Whether you seek an intimate dining experience or a gathering place for friends and family, Manitou Bistro feels like home.
