Nicole Rubi's Cannes table is no longer at the Majestic: since 2020, La Petite Maison has been at the Palm Beach, at the tip of the Croisette. Listed here from the public record, with what we'd check before going.
Many guides still place La Petite Maison de Nicole at the Majestic hotel. That has not been true since 2020: the Cannes table of Nicole Rubi, founder of La Petite Maison in Nice, left the Croisette for the Palm Beach, on place Franklin Roosevelt at the eastern tip of the town, and Paradiso Nicole & Pierre took its place at the Majestic. Its official name today is La Petite Maison Cannes.
It is open in 2026: the official website takes online bookings and announces the return of Sunday brunch from 18 October. If an old guide sends you to the Majestic, you will still have more than 2 km of Croisette to cover.
The official website describes Mediterranean cooking, with the pissaladière and the truffle brouillade presented as the house classics, a menu that follows the seasons and chef Yiannis Kioroglou. It puts forward a panoramic view, from the Cap d'Antibes to the Lérins Islands, a free public car park with 200 spaces and a valet service.
Hours according to the official website: Tuesday to Saturday, lunch 12 noon-2.30pm and dinner 7.30pm-12.30am, brunch on Sunday from 12 noon to 5pm. The city's official tourism listing (updated April 2026) adds that from October to April the house closes on Monday, and that from May to September it opens seven days a week for dinner from 7.30pm, with lunch during the Festival. The same listing shows bank cards, American Express, Apple Pay, cheque and cash. The official page shows no prices: the menu is a PDF to open before you book.
Turning up without a booking on a summer evening. Going on a Monday out of season. Choosing this table for a quiet dinner for two without checking first: Sunday brunch is announced with a live band and a DJ set, and the house hires out its rooms for private events. And trusting a price read elsewhere: the most recent published range we found (€70-90 à la carte) comes from a 2021 review.
We haven't eaten here ourselves yet, so treat this as a sourced notebook entry rather than a review. Our opinion: this is a table you come to for the view and the atmosphere as much as for the plate, and it makes most sense in daylight, when the bay does its share of the work. For a dinner where only the cooking counts, we'd look first towards the Forville market.
Before going, we'd open the PDF menu for current prices, book online (SevenRooms) or on 04 28 70 18 18, confirm the opening days for our date, and plan the journey: the Palm Beach is at the far end of the Croisette, a long way from the station and Le Suquet. The district has its own page: Palm Beach and Pointe Croisette.
