An optical ferrule and an optical connector are provided, which make it possible to reduce the labor required for an adhesive wiping operation even when the optical ferrule is small-sized. A first adhesive filling recess 113 is equipped, which is formed at an outlet of an optical fiber hole 112 so that a forward end of a bare fiber 120, which is positioned by the optical fiber hole 112, is allowed to abut against an inner wall 113w opposed to the outlet, and the bare fiber 120 is adhered and fixed in a resultant state by means of an adhesive 131 with which the recess is filled, wherein the first adhesive filling recess 113 is provided with adhesive accommodating recesses 115, 117 which are shallower than the first adhesive filling recess 113 and are disposed continuously with the first adhesive filling recess 113.
