Our Story

A Celebration of Mexican-Inspired Food & Drinks

At Platypus Cantina, every bite is a fiesta and every drink a celebration!  We’re a Mexican-inspired restaurant that brings together delicious food, amazing drinks, and a fun-filled atmosphere that’ll make your taste buds dance and your heart sing.

Our journey began with a strong desire to share our passion for delectable food and drinks with everyone and to bring a taste of Mexico to the neighbourhood.  We are thrilled to open our doors in the city after years of perfecting our recipe in our East Coast kitchen.

Our menu is a delicious fusion of classic Mexican dishes with a funky and local twist.  Whether you’re looking for a wild night out with your amigos or a cosy family dinner, we’ve got you covered.  Get ready for a flavour explosion that will have you coming back for seconds, thirds, and maybe even fourths!
