    Lovely little spot. Well decorated with so much character. Nice buzzing ambiance with friendly service. Small menu to choose from with daily recommendation (soup or salad). Well crafted cocktails and tasty food. • We also visited the Corner Peach « store » where we made sure to grab some delicious freshly baked sourdough bread and some amazing chocolate walnut meringue cookies!!!

    Very flavourful salads and sandwiches. Friends who don't typically like salads or Sandwiches liked theirs and would order again! The space is super cute and there was an "in season fresh ingredients" vibe to their food. Coffee was pretty standard :)

    Amazing experience in this small restaurant. Had to wait but we were all happy anyways. Great selection of wines and food is simply fantastic. We will come back! Thank you.

    An absolute gem of a restaurant. Hard to describe the food as anything other than fine casual dining. Staff and decor/atmosphere is what keeps me going back along with the always amazing menu that changes every few months. It’s the type of place you could show up dressed to the nines or in post-workout attire. Note: lunch and dinner are different menus and different vibes (with lunch being more casual with things like salads and an awesome burger you won’t find on the dinner menu).

    The cutest bistro! Stopped in last month for a drink and some snacks with friends and it didn’t disappoint! Service was great and food was delicious (highly recommend the salad!). Can’t wait to return!

    adorable! The cutest dinner spot for a date night :) loved the atmosphere and super cute decor inside. They have a small menu but good food items, plus everything was plated beautifully. Also great plates for sharing. We got the beef tartare with fries and the pasta alla norma. Be sure to make a reservation as they don’t have many tables inside. They do have a bar where you can be seated as well. Definitely worth trying :)

    Corner Peach is an absolute gem! Lots of love for our whole experience - the menu showcases some beautiful, vibrant dishes, and with many of the small dishes being our go to this evening. Wonderful flavours, textures, and bites - delicious! Personable, genuine service adds so much to a great evening out and we were so happy to be looked after so well. Thank you for a memorable evening - we'll be back for lunch!

    Went to Corner Peach a while ago with my friend from Markham, before she left Ottawa. We had walked by the place several times, and the decor and atmosphere inside enticed us. The night we visited the restaurant was a bit quiet, and we ordered two craft beers, two entrees and a main. The entrees featured an open faced sandwich of mushrooms, cold cuts and pickled blueberries with some greens and a steak tartare. The sandwich was great, all the elements paired together very well and the sourdough toast was crunchy and satisfying. I also enjoyed the tartare and the fries were a highlight. After the success of the starters we were excited for our main, billed as a 'picnic meal' of Korean Fried Chicken and two sides to go with it. The dish took a while to arrive, and to our surprise the chicken was served cold. An explanation from our waiter described that this was the 'picnic' element of the meal, but upon trying it, leaving the chicken to go cold felt unnecessary. The chicken was well cooked, but tasted worse because of the temperature and I didn't really see the point of serving it that way. The kimchi and potato sides were solid, although none of them were particular standouts. Overall, we really enjoyed the atmosphere and the space is really cute. Some of the options on the menu seem very promising and I enjoy the concept of a rapidly changing menu. Spots like Corner Peach are nice to see in Ottawa, but they could do without serving food that would be better warm, cold.

    What a delightful surprise. Came in here on a whim from my daughter. She thought the photo of the resto looked cute. Oh boy. I wish I had a big enough of a stomach to try EVERYTHING. Would definite come again. Alas I ate all the food. All that was left was some kale salad. 😂😂

    Excellent spot for dinner, we were a larger party so they served us family style (sharing platters). The dishes were fresh and super flavourful. I can't wait to go back!

  • 5/5 Jessey A. 2 months ago on Google • 54 reviews New
    5 stars, we tried a variety of plates and cocktails and everything was delicious. Great flavour combinations and unpretentious presentation. The service was great as well. Definitely give this place a try for a cute date night!

    I went for lunch with a friend. Service was good and friendly. The food I ordered (roasted beet salad) was a bit bland unfortunately. Coffee was excellent so I would recommend this place as a coffee and dessert spot. The atmosphere of the place is very nice.

  • 3/5 Emily J. 1 year ago on Google
    Not my favorite for a dinner spot - the starters were all good (beef tartare, corn, zucchini fritters, olive and cheese bowl) but the cocktails weren't especially well made for the price. The entrees (pasta with sausage and peppers and the steak) were also very average. Probably a nice spot for a quick lunch and a glass of wine, but wouldn't come back for dinner.

  • 4/5 Maryse L. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice vibes, food is good but not great, wine by the glass overpriced. Would not line up for a meal or go out of my way but might drop in for a snack and a drink when I am in the neighborhood.

  • 5/5 Tazmin M. 2 years ago on Google
    Had an amazing three course dinner here as part of their Liminal Spaces series a few months ago. The food was incredible and the service was warm and friendly. We loved every dish we tried. The handmade mushroom pappardelle was outstanding. Can’t wait to visit the corner store to try their bread and other goodies!

  • 5/5 Alyce W. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is delicious, service is wonderful. James in particular was so kind and attentive, but somehow still managed to not be intrusive in our evening. A truly difficult balance to create, stellar experience. We always have the best time here. A small, intimate and fun venue. Delicious variety of shares and larger plates. Always a fun wine and beer selection, knowledgeable staff who will gladly offer you suggestions. High on our return list.

  • 5/5 Colton D. 1 year ago on Google
    Very friendly staff, simple, yet delicious eats. Would recommend the beef tartare & fries

  • 5/5 Bob D. 2 years ago on Google
    A truly special place in Ottawa - top notch taste, quality, service, and creativity with everything they do. Highly suggest stopping in morning or lunch for a killer sandwich, or once their resto is back open for a full dinner. All their takeaway stuff is amazing as well. Big fan!

  • 5/5 Jody L. 1 year ago on Google
    So happy to be back at Corner Peach! Beautiful food as always. Beef tartare with the crispiest fries, ricotta toast with roasted eggplant, asparagus with fried shallots and a perfectly poached egg. And Thirst Trap pet nat!! All with wonderful service. <3

  • 4/5 Alona B. 4 years ago on Google
    It was an ok experience but we didn’t leave the place saying we loved it. Wanted to try Corner Peach since they have opened a few months ago and was excited to try their food. We had the melon salad to start which was fresh and flavourful. For the main I ordered the clam spaghetti and it was too salty for my liking, all I tasted was salt. My fiancé had the fried chicken dish, which he liked but again didn’t think it was great. The service was really friendly, and the place has a nice vibe, hence the 4 stars.

  • 5/5 Erica C. 8 months ago on Google
    Fantastic service and beautifully designed restaurant. I order the beef tartare every time. It is so well seasoned and the fries are delicious. Also recommend the mushroom cacio e pepe with rigatoni.

  • 5/5 Ziad S. 1 year ago on Google
    A delightful upscale diner in a wonderful neighborhood. Had the sourdough bread, beef tartar w fries and rigatoni with guanciali. Excellent drinks and service. Would totally go back. P.S. don't skip dessert.

  • 5/5 Lauren R. 1 year ago on Google
    Yum. Check out their store, limited hours but totally worth it. I would recommend their chilli/sesame sourdough focaccia... probably the best bread I have ever put in my mouth. Also, their donuts are the best in town, don't leave without one.

  • 5/5 Kyle L. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious food with a great vibe. Two small plates and a large are more than enough for two people. Would highly recommend the fried mushrooms!

  • 5/5 Kristen L. 1 year ago on Google
    The store is a bit cluttered, but the dining area section is absolutely beautiful. I got the beef tartare with fries — the beef tartare was deliciously herbaceous and very lightly spicy, and the fries were some of the best I’ve ever had. The smash burger, though a bit expensive, was also delicious and came with a generous side of fries. I’ll definitely be coming back to try some of their other menu items!

  • 5/5 Tom L. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious comfort food: smash burger & fries. Possibly the best frites that we have had in many years. Nice selection of beverages. Laid back and kind service from behind the bar. Don't forget to do some shopping in their shop next door.

  • 5/5 Yamini B. 10 months ago on Google
    This place is a must try in Ottawa. They have a rotating food menu. A few of their dishes can be customized to suit dietary restrictions for vegans and vegetarians They do not have much in terms of drinks menu but their food makes up for it. The ambience is beautiful and the servers are very nice and accommodating. Make reservations if you are trying to go on a weekend

  • 5/5 Kate 4 months ago on Google
    Service was extremely quick and friendly, with a fairly full restaurant. Amazing sourdough, drinks, and fries. Great atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Laura C. 5 months ago on Google
    The ambiance, food and service here was amazing. Loved the macerated wine, and will be back for the kale Cesar salad. Thanks for taking such good care of us and being extra diligent for my friend who has a severe allergy!

  • 5/5 Daniela V. 11 months ago on Google
    Food was great, so cozy and just beautiful to look at. Has a great time at lunch today. Really recommend!

  • 4/5 Udita S. 1 year ago on Google
    Cutest little resto in Ottawa. Service was excellent, our table wasn’t ready yet, but they have a little standing table area. Food was spaced out and beautiful. Delicious.

  • 5/5 Brandon F. 3 years ago on Google
    This is seriously a real Gem in the city of Ottawa. I haven't been in eons and came back as I did a causal stroll on Somerset. I got two donuts (Boston creme and honey cruller) and legit best donuts I've had, in Ottawa. Suzy Q and Mavericks not even close. I had a pizza which wasnt even hot and it was absolutely delicious. 11/10

  • 5/5 Natalia K. 4 years ago on Google
    I am absolutely in love with this place. We have been coming here consistently for brunch for the past few months because the food is great and the people are awesome. Also, a bit shout out to the chef because her SOUPS are literally out of this world!!!!!

  • 3/5 Fadumo N. 4 years ago on Google
    Poor customer service and lack of courtesy for take out clients

  • 5/5 Dina M. 4 years ago on Google
    a quaint little place to visit to grab an americano and a salted brown butter chocolate chunk cookie. Sitting at the counter, surrounded by all the vines, enjoying their beef tartare & fries coupled with their cocktail of the day is also an indulgent treat. Stop by if you haven't already and see what you're missing :)

  • 5/5 Lailla L. 3 years ago on Google
    Such a fun spot with amazing staff and food, highly recommend :)

  • 5/5 James W. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Fiona S. 3 years ago on Google
    Since COVID they have launched a 'corner store' complete with online orders (including local wine and beer) and lots more available in shop. The casse en croûte menu is always fantastic.

  • 5/5 Sebastien l. 3 years ago on Google
    awesome place with an amazing selection of food and beverage to pick up on your walk home!

    This is my favourite restaurant in Ottawa. Owned by very lovely individuals, it is a cozy and inviting spot that really has something for everyone. Great cocktails, pastries, fantastic wine, and awesome food. Their staff is awesome as well. I just love it here!

  • 5/5 Az M. 3 years ago on Google
    Best donut and pizza I've had in years!

  • 5/5 Heather S. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the great spots to support. Their baking is beyond good and take home some dinners for another time, like the cabbage rolls.

  • 5/5 Alexandra M. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing food, homemade condiments and to-go options. Great wine and beer selection and run by really lovely people. Go often, and eat a lot, but save room for soft serve ice cream too!

  • 5/5 John S. 3 years ago on Google
    Corner peach is the best. Now that they've shifted to a little corner store during covid, you can get everything you need. Including a great little beer selection. Can't wait to go back to eat and drink at their restaurant.

  • 5/5 Justin T. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place to grab breakfast or lunch and a coffee. Cute stocked boutique grocery store with lots of great local products and in house made food. Awesome selection of wines and beers! Staff is awesome, support local!

  • 5/5 Fredy 3 years ago on Google
    Went from bring a super cool diner to a super cool corner store. Great food selection, freshly made and a very nice variety of vino!

  • 1/5 Matt R. 3 years ago on Google
    I drove across town to support this small business. I ordered a couple sugar free vanilla lattes and was served a regular latte. Upon returning I requested to have the syrup put in the drinks. Her response was very negative and placed the blame on me. Whether or not I was in the wrong. I found she dealt with the situation poorly and has tainted my view of this establishment.

  • 5/5 Ollie S. 4 years ago on Google
    We were looking forward to trying this new place. We were pleasantly surprised on the food and decor. Very hip and trendy place. Service was attentive. Would definitely come here again!

    (Translated by Google) Wonderful little place in Ottawa to drink orange wines, good Ontario beers and delicious little dishes !! Excellent service!

  • 5/5 You J. 4 years ago on Google
    Such a great combination of vintage and modern styles restaurant. Beef tartare was good balance with red wine which was a Pinot Noir. I had a great time with my boyfriend and friends!

  • 1/5 alea fenice c. 4 years ago on Google
    i really wanted to like it. but being forced to be 3 inches from my neighbor's shoulders, hearing loudly about their gum disease and bachelor episodes and smelling way too strong cologne was abysmal. Also- unfiltered wine isn't supposed to taste like watered down vinegar, and if so, should actually pair with something on the menu and be there for an actual reason. also, 'pickled things' is actually just a pickle chopped up in pieces. fries very over salted. overall, unpleasant, won't be back.

  • 5/5 Michael B. 4 years ago on Google
    The best French fries.

  • 5/5 Joshua B. 4 years ago on Google
    Wonderful addition to the Ottawa food scene. Delicious cocktails and great sharing plates.

  • 5/5 Adam R. 4 years ago on Google
    Best fries I've had in Ottawa, everything else on the menu is always delicious too. Service and decor are always a win, would go back anytime!
