The ham was salty and thick cut. The cheese was melted and delightful. And the brioche was just perfect fluffy bread. Perfect combo! And Isabelle took care of us with the care your grandmother would in her own kitchen. You walk in and It feels like a warm hug.

Beware, you may think you're in a Hallmark movie about a lovely pastry chef making a go of her beloved bistro/cafe when a large franchise moves in next door to upset the carte de pommes. But no, this is real. We just had the croissant and a 2:30min conversation with Isabelle and we're charmed, nay, enchanted. Alas, we couldn't try the coffee or the food because we discovered it late on a Monday and it is closed Tuesday. But the vibe and the quality of the one croissant we did eat bodes well for life imitating art.

A cozy little cafe!…read more I really like the causal vibes of this place, it's really great for a lazy weekend brunch. The menu is simple and short but still has basically all the popular brunch items. I got the breakfast sandwich in both the croissant and bagel. Overall very enjoyable! The croissant was very good and buttery but it was kind of messy to eat. I would probably stick with the bagel next time! For drinks I tried one of the staff recommendations and a drip coffee. I'm not a coffee connoisseur but I thought the Lilly was very good, sweet but not too heavy or sugary, but it was a little bit expensive for the price as the cup was fairly small. Price was okay overall factoring in the sandwich as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my breakfast here and would love to come back next time I'm in town!

I love their coffee, their ambiance, and the people that work there. They are a delight. Cindy, Bruce, and all the gang are just kind-hearted people who serve up some great treats! I usually get baked goods (which are always so good) and a latte. It's rustic but it's got so much character. Seems like most of the clients are regulars too, I feel like the odd one out! But I get treated as if I was a regular and I love it. I go back again and again mostly for the ambiance and feeling just part of it. They have a parking lot too! Sometimes it is hard to come by parking in Chelsea. They also have a lovely outdoor patio which I have not yet enjoyed because it's always busy or it's raining. I will have to try sitting out there one of these days.

I'm so surprised that this place only has 1 review. We were staying at an Airbnb nearby and popped…read morein as this place seemed to be the only thing open on a Sunday. We were immediately greeted by several staff members and once they had ascertained that we were English speaking, they served us in English. They were very busy and had no seats available, so we order to go instead. There's an extensive list of teas to choose from. They also sell a lot of teapots, cups, sets, and other tea accessories. I wish we had been able to stay longer, however, it seems this neighbourhood is in need of more businesses open on Sundays. With limited options, this place is sure to be busy often!

This is such a cozy and adorable place. As it's just around walking distance to the hotel I stayed,…read moreit was a nice walk to this cafe. The outside does not justify the inner interior of this cafe. There is so many different corners to choose from, if only dine- in is allowed. With the closure during COVID, only takeout is allowed for now. But I did just walk around while my coffee is being prepared and pastries packed. There are several corners from a fireplace, to the communal table, along with the library of books corner and window with good lighting and surrounded by plant that one can choose if they had the luxury of dining in. Coffee- I ordered Americano and Flat White (used Oat milk) and found the coffee was about weak. Pastries - They were both amazingly delicious. The Chocolate pastry and a sour cherry yoghurt pastry caught my eye and those were both good choices. There were also good food and pastries offering. This is definitely a cafe that is be back if I am in Ottawa again.

Esther's Cakes N Sweets opened up around May 2023 in the space that used to be Casa Balzano (inside…read morea medical/office building). I went in to take a look and ended up buying a salted caramel brownie ($3.25) and a pink cookie with white chocolate chips ($3.65). When you buy anything pink in the shop, 20% of the sales go to Breast Cancer Research (not sure if this is just for the month of October (Breast Cancer Awareness month) or for always). The salted caramel brownie was phenomenal! So rich and buttery and filled with gooey salted caramel and chocolate chips. The cookie was good too, nice and chewy with lots of white chocolate chips, but the salted caramel brownie stole the show, for sure! Everything is baked by them, it is not one of those shops that buys stuff from Costco and resells them, lol, like some other shops in medical buildings. I was served by Esther herself, who is beyond lovely. She told me they recently opened 5 months ago and she's really trying to get the cafe more exposure through social media. She noticed my purse and told me she has the exact same one and brought hers out to show me. Immediately I knew this woman has good taste, lol. The cafe is super cute with a few seats to eat in. It's not too visible from the street, so just look for the medical/office building next to the Westgate Shopping Centre. There's free parking along the front of the building. The parking lot is actually quite large, but many spots are reserved for permit holders, so just look out for the signage. Esther's Cakes N Sweets is a gem. I'm looking forward to trying out other items.
