Their waffle cone was quite thick and seasoned with cinnamon or other spices: different and not my cup of tea. Vanilla was a classic and had specs of vanilla. The toffee had choco and nut chucks and wasn't too sweet, same with the vanilla.

An underrated gem in the Ottawa area for ice cream!…read more Whether it is the summer or cold winter, Haven's Creamery has taken pride to make delicious handcrafted ice cream! Whether it's soft serve, hand churned ice cream, or the smell of fresh waffle cones , there is a flavour for everyone at this spot along Bank Street! The Cereal Milk flavour is one of my favourite options to enjoy as it feels like breakfast with the balance of the vanilla milk base pairing well with the simple corn flakes for added texture. I cannot wait to go back in my next visit to Ottawa!

Jamocha almond fudge was my favourite growing up, but pistachio almond is really my go-to. I love theirs the most because it has so many almonds. My husband got a large cookies 'n' cream milkshake and really enjoyed it, too. Definitely a lot sweeter than I normally like, but a nice treat every now and then!

Went to Baskin and Robbins in the Kanata Centrum for the first time with my kids. Looked up the…read moreflavors and the flavor of the month online before we visited as we did not know what to expect. Was not greeted by the cashier when I arrived or when I went up to the cash. When i asked about the flavor of the month the cashier didn't explain anything and it wasn't until after I paid that I saw a couple bins with topping which I'm assuming could be added to the ice cream and it is unfortunate because I'm sure my kids would of loved the option. The price was quite high for two small bowls of ice cream too. I had planned on eating inside the store but the tables were not wiped down and still had sticky ice cream on most of them.

Lokma is a chain from Quebec that sells Turkish donuts. They are always co-located with Centrale…read moreBergham (which sells burgers, sandwiches and wraps with an international twist). I have had their donuts before, but at a different location. This location is similar to other locations, so it was great. UberEats was having a buy one get one free offer on their Twist Lokma (12 pieces covered in white chocolate and Nutella, with fresh sliced strawberries and crushed peanuts). A box is usually $11.99, but I got 2 boxes for that price. They fry the lokma to order, so you know you are getting fresh donuts everytime. The lokma were nice and crispy on the outside, but soft and chewy on the inside. They are a little denser than at Mr. Puffs (who I think is their major competitor). They also sell ice cream and milkshakes, though I have never them. I picked up my order and service was friendly. They are located in a strip mall, so there's free parking in the strip mall parking lot. Turkish donuts are hard to come by in Ottawa, let alone Orleans, so I'm glad to see Lokma in the area :)

Also support local We got 1 strawberry sundae + 1 chocolate sundae (unfortunately that one didn't make the cuts since we devoured that within seconds). The vanilla soft serve is SO incredibly good?!! Like wow. It's super soft and creamy- miles better than DQ. The young lady at the window was also super sweet and friendly! They also have a patio section with a few tables and benches & lots of variety on their menu! Do note that their sundaes come in only 1 size (which is pretty decent! Not too small and not too big, leaving you feel guilty afterwards. It's just the right size!) I will definitely be back to try their razzles next time since I've heard great things about it

Brett's Ice Cream is a little ice cream shop in Kanata. It's been around since 2013 but I only…read morelearned of it recently. It's a little shop with basically just a window where you order. It's a strip mall with an auto body shop. Not the most picturesque or romantic place, but the ice cream is good. You pretty much need to eat it in the parking lot (there are a few benches) or in your car. My husband and I went during the Phase 2 re-opening amidst the Covid-19 Pandemic, but I don't think they had to change their practices much because they were always takeout only with no place to sit and eat. There was absolutely no line up when we went on a Sunday afternoon in June. My husband is a traditionalist so he got a medium chocolate vanilla swirl in a waffle cone. It was $3.25 for a medium and an additional $0.75 for the waffle cone. I wanted to try their flavour burst which is flavour swirled into the ice cream in unique way (see photos). I got a small vanilla cone with cherry flavour burst. It was $2.25 for the small cone plus an additional $1 for the flavour burst. I enjoyed my cone. The ice cream was creamy and the flavour burst added a nice black cherry flavour to the cone. It wasn't too overwhelmingly sweet which was nice. I really want to try the Pina Colada flavour burst next time. Note that they only have soft serve ice cream. No hard/scoop ice cream. They do have milkshakes, slushies, slushie floats, sundaes, and Razzles, which are like Dairy Queen Blizzards or Mc Donald's McFlurries. Service was quick and courteous. I'm a huge fan. It's a bit of a trek to get to Kanata for me, but I would come back if I was in the area or planning to so other things in the area. Free parking in the parking lot that is shared with the auto shop.

I've tried Cinnaholic twice now, but even though I want to love it, I feel lukewarm…read more The ambiance is not there, between the lighting, crowded seating area, and bathroom (needed to be restocked). At the counter, I found some cool-looking seasonal offerings but none had any descriptions. When I asked for more information, I did get most of their names and a rundown of their toppings. But I wish the signage had been there in the first place. Even looking past these aspects of the experience, I just haven't been impressed with the actual cinnamon buns. They come in an awkwardly small box, and the plastic silverware on premise is far too flimsy to be used effectively. Eating a cinnamon bun should be the best part, but struggling to eat it really sours the experience for me. And then it didn't even taste very good. I think I won't try it again.

No issues from our end - just give us dairy free options. They also had types of vegan waffle cones. This keeps getting better. All of their staff were amazing to deal with.

Our large group could sit together and have a good time. How about the ice cream? We were a diverse group and all of them just loved their flavours and even the milkshakes. All top notch. They had 7 vegan flavours when we went! Wish they were 500kms east towards us.
