Best places: Coffee shops in (Old) Ottawa, Canada

👍👍 I love fresh strong but not bitter coffee. It’s harder to find that one would think. But I found it at Opulence Cafe. I make certain that I have the espresso blend at both my house and cottage. Worth ordering if cannot get there and I always travel with it. JP and his staff are very knowledgeable an...

👍👍 Really cute little shop with delicious matcha latte. The ham and avocado sandwich was also really yummy, with a nice kick of mustard. The strawberry waffle was also delicious. Highly recommend.

👍👍 Great Italian grocery store offering a lot of Italian goods that you can't find anywhere else! Good selection of coffee, oil, pasta sauce, cheese, olives, and more.

New & used books for sale in a homey setting with coffee, light bites & sweets like cookies.

Cozy cashless cafe with a focus on house-roasted beans & specialty coffees (no Wi-Fi).

Snug bakeshop whipping up clever sweet treats & espresso drinks, plus vegetarian lunch fare.

👍👍 It has been our regular spot while coming back from work. The ambience is cozy. Simple things like even a cheese toast is amazing. Service is on point Communication and interaction is just super good. Would definitely recommend this place!

Quaint cafe featuring coffee, tea, beer, wine, sandwiches & pastries, plus patio seating.

👍 I love buying bagels from here to take home and eat with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and other fixings. What I have almost never done is ordered one of Kettlemans own sandwiches and dined in. So in order to try something new, me and my children decided to eat here, with the result that we found the...

😠 Fine latte art, however the taste did not reach my expectations in various aspects. For instance, the richness in flavour, aroma, and aftertaste. The service was not friendly when compared to other cafes (like Red Door Provisions, a local cafe with warmer service). The atmosphere (or environment)...

👍👍 The food was delicious! I had the Peaceful falafel wrap with greens and the carrot cake for dessert. The wrap was very, very filling and the carrot cake was probably the best one I've ever tasted. Service was friendly and efficient. They have an indoor dining area as well as an outdoor patio. Loved...

😠 A year ago a definite 5/5. But this visit a super let-down. They handed us a number for our table, so the staff clearly knew we were dine in, but then gave use our scones in a bag. We had to re-line up for butter packets (which they now charge for) Last visit we had awesome breakfasts but this visit...

This snug, bi-level cafe with funky murals features churros, tortas & cakes, plus lattes & beer.

👍👍 It's become my quick sandwich time spot. Smoked meat is my favourite. - The service delivery was pretty quick today. - No line-up either around 2:30pm. - Staff kept the idle sitting area clean and tidy; no trays hanging alone. Definitely one of my fav places for a quick bite during lunch break. Su...

😠 Today was the first and last time I will be attending this location. For a local Ottawa business the environment is completely cold and unwelcoming. I am aware the current climate with COVID-19 has forced businesses to operate within certain restrictions, however, on days where there aren’t line-ups...

👍👍 Absolutely love this location. The factory space is original, with lofty high ceilings. The barista hot drinks are delicious. The bakery has fresh flaky croissants, moist chocolate cake and soft chocolate chip & peanut butter cookies. Recommendation to heat up the Egg & cheese roll sandwiches in...

Charming cafe with sandwiches, groceries & pre-portioned dinners for takeout or delivery.

Chill coffee shop for espresso drinks, baked goods & light fare, such as bagels, soup & sandwiches.

Filipino-fusion offerings, beer & cocktails in a relaxed spot with outdoor seating.

👍👍 Having a cafe here feels like having a coffee in Italy of France. In addition to the quality of coffee and baked goods, the atmosphere is slower; not rushed. I don't mean that the service is slow. The service is thoughtful, and you can tell that care is being put into each drink. While you might...
