My husband and I stopped at Taste Blooms on our way to destinations further west. We needed a snack…read moreso we wouldn't be hangry. The bakery is in a converted old house. It's super cute. They don't have a whole lot of selection, but what we had was pretty good. We got a croissant, a lemon brownie, and a salted caramel chocolate chip cookie. I'm not sure what the prices were, but it was a bit under $10 for everything. The lemon brownie was like a lemon square and was simultaneously tart and sweet. It was lovely. The croissant was flaky and tasted fresh. The cookie was a bit too salty for my liking, but wasn't bad. They have gluten-free and keto options too. The man serving us was nice. Worth a visit if you find yourself in Carleton Place, or of course if you live there ;) Street parking only. Of note: Google maps took us to the wrong location and actually to a parking lot nearby for other businesses. The address is on Allan Street so turn on Allan, don't turn southwest on "Mill Street" from Bridge Street like Google Map told us to (Mill Street only runs northeast off Bridge Street, so turning southwest is turning more into an alley way and not really a street).

The Bastardized Coffee house is a cute cafe, and an interesting shop. Street parking out front, and…read morea few steps up to get in. There are not a lot of tables to eat at - only 3, with a few couches interspersed. The staff and patrons are friendly. We got there early today, and had time to look around before our friends got there. This gave us time to wait for a table, It gets busy in here, so ordering can take some time. However, the food was a while coming out. Our food came out well before our friends' food. However, the food was tasty when it did come out. Unfortunately, my eggs were a bit better done than I like them, but the meal was still edible, while we were eating and our friends were waiting for their food, the waitress admitted that they were short staffed by 2 people (you could really tell!) Later on, we heard they had run out of eggs. Although it is an interesting place, with an eclectic menu, and it's not next door for us, I would not be in a hurry to go back. I would give it one more chance, though, in a while, hoping they get their staffing issues sorted.

The line-ups are atrocious and service is very slow. When you're in store, there is zero acknowledgment that you are there. No cheerful, "good morning" like there used to be. There is also way too much standing around. When a drink order takes twenty minutes and the line is another 10-15, we are getting the the point of ridiculous. This will most likely be my very last trip here. Just a bunch of work out people looking busy accomplishing nothing.

I have the privilege of knowing Anastasia personally, and I can say without hesitation that her baked goods are the best I've ever had... It's no wonder she graduated at the top of her class from Paul Smiths College. Especially noteworthy are the lemon pound cake, fruit tartlets, and cinnamon buns. She is also an insanely talented cake decorator and pulls out all the stops to make sure her customers are happy. While her bakery will be temporary closed while she is starting her family, I have no doubt her business will continue to thrive when she returns.

I love the fusion of items and coffee. The place is super comfortable too. Couches or tables. Variety in seating. Parking was on the street. Highly recommend checking It out.

Which I do put stuff in my coffee but I still like the flavor of the bean to come through but it just always tastes watery. I thought maybe it was from all the flavors and such so I've ordered a regular coffee with just milk and sugar and still tastes watered down. I drink coffee cause I enjoy the bitter taste and the depth of flavor--this place doesn't have that. So if you don't actually like coffee and just drink it for the aesthetic then you'll like this place. Their food is pretty good so that's the 2 stars, their jammy toast or the bacon and egg toast are very filling but light enough for breakfast.

The location has a classic diner feel like the other locations. I ordered the Cheeseburger with Onion Rings and one of their bottomless sodas. (Love the fact that there are free refills on pop) The Onion rings were done perfectly but the burger was a little over cooked, not too bad though. Good food but nothing compares to the original location in downtown Ottawa. The price of the food was a little high, however that's probably just due to the inflation of food costs across Canada currently. The server was an absolute delight and was very friendly, she really made this a happy visit!
