I was not expecting a small town could have an amazing bakery like Ottawa Bakery. Staff were very attentive to my order, as they were patience in explaining what's popular, and what they would recommend. I almost ordered one of everything because I was starving. And boy, I did not regret my decision. The pastry overall wasn't too sweet at all. I picked up the blueberry muffin, raspberry bar, the cookie, the turnover, the almond claw. And boy, I did not disappoint a bit. And yes, I would go back again!

Very nice people. Cute shop !! Maybe an off day but we…read morebought 6 different things and of them only one would I go back for. The raspberries/cream cheese danish was really good. The 7 layer bar and the pecan bar tasted like the were o l d . And very hard. The apple fritters and apple cinnamon muffins not my personal preference and the taste was way off to me.

I've been frequenting this coffee shop for a few months and I'm happy every time. I usually order a…read morelatte and each time it's great, it's creamy, and their espresso is so smooth and flavorful. I'm picky with my espresso, but this place knows what they're doing. Every once in a while I get a biscotti to go along with my latte, I believe they are made in house, but I'm not so sure. Right now, they have a smoothie menu for the summer, I've tried the strawberry piña colada and it's so refreshing, especially when the mornings are really hot. I use to get the same barista each morning, she's so kind and friendly. Now it's different girls but they're all so kind and in a good mood. Love it!

I get a bit nostalgic when I see the old maroon and white specked Famous floor at the entrance. I loved that store. I like this space at Jeremiah Joe's as it is quiet and plenty of comfortable seats. I have only been here twice and it is winter so there is no outdoor seating of course, the indoor seating is very comfy. I have encountered very friendly staff who are helpful with making suggestions for beverages. I had a very nice plain ol' iced tea today, they also have a green iced tea with coconut flavor which I did not choose as it sounded a bit strange for my liking. The iced tea was very refreshing and approximately $3.50 or so for a large. Great location in the heart of downtown, lots of free parking in front and side streets.

I visited with some wonderful ladies and ordered the blueberry mango tea and turkey bacon ranch sandwich. I added lettuce and tomato to add some crunch. The sandwich was tasty and filling.

I'd return to try their ice cream flavors.

We also ordered a side of Cheese Curds. No photos of those - I was too hungry. So, let's start with the cheese curds. For reference, we have tried a ton of these, and this version was not great. The curds were "hollow" in the center of the fried section. We've had better. The dipping sauce was good. No salt or pepper is on the table. The Wagyu Burger was cooked to order, but tasted bland. It needed a good dose of salt or something, but nothing was available. My wife had their French Dip. I tried a bit of it - she liked it. It tasted pretty good, so she got the better end of the order. Her tea and my Dr. Pepper tasted okay. Service was good. The interior of the restaurant was attractive. It's just the food was amazingly bland. Like blah.

We loved this placed!…read more It was very off season so we were waiting all week until Thursday when they were open to try it. Our large group of 3 families enjoyed breakfast here and the lovely staff were very accommodating to our chaos. 3 grandparents, 4 parents and 4 toddlers to order, eat and we all enjoyed ourselves. We all loved the treats, the food, and best coffee we could find in the starved rock area! I got for the 4 I was in charge of: 2 hot vanilla latte, a kids French toast with bacon, a biscuit and gravy, cream horn, cinnamon roll, and more treats I can't recall now. Highly recommend this cute little stop and if we are in the area again we'd definitely stop by!

He made some great recommendations based on my preferences and offers items in bean or grounded formats. I purchased the Costa Rica Marigold option based on the notes listed. He gave me beans that had been roasted that day! The beans are high quality but not has flavor forward as I'm used to. Either way, pricing was very fair and seems to always have all options in stock.
