In 2025, this kind of service is simply not competitive. I do not recommend ordering online from Urban Barn. The service was disappointing and the wait time was unacceptable.

Really? No reviews for Urban Barn? I like being the first ;)…read more So since we are in the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic and only essential businesses are open, Urban Barn is temporarily closed, but this review is for back when we were living normal lives and Urban Barn was open. This Urban Barn is relatively new. It's in the Ottawa Trainyards, but the newer section where Nordstrom Rack, Figaro Coffee and Healthy Planet are. This Urban Barn seems much more fancy and upscale than the one I'd usually go to in Stittsville. I really like the displays. I find the prices a bit on the higher side for furniture, but more affordable for things like decorative bowls, pillows, picture frames, etc. Staff are nice and it's a fun place to browse, even if just to go for decorating ideas ;) Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot.

I bought a journal that has its cover made of leaves and a stick. It has a vintage feel, and im going to use this journal and make it into a scrapbook of my adventure. After visiting the other stores in Bymarket Square, I decided to come back to this store again. :) Well worth the visit! Btw the Asian woman at the cashier is very friendly and informative of the products there.

In the window stands a wooden giraffe and other figures, all painted incredibly well. It's a welcoming scene. As you walk in the small, yet cozy shop you will find all sorts of arts and crafts, and some clothing to boot. Incense burns and helps create a nice, soothing atmosphere to walk around in. The store has an exotic feel to it. Masks decorate the walls and the wooden figures range form small little things that will fit in your hands to much bigger, more significant pieces. It isn't a huge store, so stock is limited, but what they do carry is fairly unique for the Ottawa area.

Here's the weirdest thing about @Home that I can come up with. Try to find it on the web. I've…read moretried countless times and I get the feeling it's the "@" that messes the whole thing up. I'm glad I took a picture of this place so at least I have proof that the place exists. Outside of its inability to be found in any Google search that I've tried, once you step into @Home, you're in for a decent time. @Home is a kitchenware store with a large assortment of different items that you can use in the kitchen or dining area. The items range from the strictly utilitarian (e.g., spring form pans - nothing fancy there) to the imaginative (e.g., elegantly shaped wine decanters). If you're looking for some interesting décor add-ons for your kitchen, or looking for something to theme your next party, this is probably a good place to start. It's not just the variety, but the quantity of items that is also overwhelming. There's tons of stuff that you can go through and, if you're so inclined, it's pretty easy to kill a half an hour in this little shop. Add to this it is an independent store and not a larger chain, so if you're into helping out the smaller business, this is a great store for you. Just don't try to Google your way there. Just get to Earl Grey Drive and look for the place in the picture.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Garden Centre with an indoor plants…read moresection. Lots of seeds available too. The Long Version: I didn't realize that this store had indoor plants. I thought they just sold seeds and gardening supplies. However, my sister-in-law who knows I'm crazy about plants right now found a video on YouTube showing this store's newly renovated plants section. So I had to check it out. They have a lot of stuff. They have books about plants and even cute crocheted/knitted plants too. I came with 2 goals in mind. The first was to find a small terra cotta plant pot saucer (about 2" in diameter) and the second was to look at their indoor plants. I found the saucer, but it was $2.29 for one. I can get them at Dollarama for $1.50 for 3 but they are a bit bigger, like 2.5 inches. So I'm going to hold out for now. I might just end up getting the bigger ones to save some money. I enjoyed looking at their plants. They had Lithops, my favourite plant, but only green ones and reddish/orangey ones, which I already have. I'm looking for purple ones or colours I don't have already. They also had Fenestraria Rhopalophylla (Baby Toes) for only $9.99, cheaper than at most other places, but they weren't in good condition, so I passed. They had lots of string of pearls which were in excellent shape though. I found it odd that some plants were thriving while others were in rough shape. Anyway, I had fun poking around the store. I'm going to return with my husband to check out their organic vegetable seeds. He's in charge of our backyard vegetable garden ;) Lots of free parking available in their private parking lot. Watch out for potholes. Lots of pot holes on the road leading up to the store and in their parking lot. Review #82 (2025)

I wish they had longer hours but I get it. I love that they are making native plants a huge priority, and have made not selling invasive species a thing! More nurseries could learn from them! They always have unique gifts as well and great pricing on bird seed and peanuts for local wildlife.
