They also offer a good selection of ice cream flavours. The yoghurt is great and the selection of fruits and flavours is bound to please anyone. What sets this stand apart is the great people than own and operate this yoghurt and ice cream stand. They always greet you with a smile and are genuinely happy about getting your business. They want to make sure you are happy. I would definitely recommend this location.

I can't believe it happened - the first place in Ottawa that serves rolled ice cream has finally…read moreopened! I rushed here as soon as I found out about it on Instagram and I am so happy I did! The flavours were somewhat limited when I went there so I decided to go with good old Strawberry Cheesecake which I absolutely loved. They made the ice cream rolls in front of me and used fresh strawberries for it. The person who made my ice cream was really nice and friendly and took care of my order right away. Overall, I had a really positive experience here and would recommend this place to anybody who is craving ice cream but also wants to try something different, or if you just love rolled ice cream! 5/5!

I tried the chocolate cake and the icing just didn't hit the way it should've for a shop that's so well-known, it looked great but the flavour wasn't what I was hoping for. I also tried their cannoli. It wasn't bad at all, but there's definitely room for improvement. The filling was decent, but I found myself wanting a bit more richness and that classic creamy punch you usually get from a great cannoli. The shell had a nice crunch, but overall it just didn't wow me the way I expected. The place itself is cute and the display looks amazing, but for the price, I thought the desserts would stand out more. I'd maybe give it another chance, but it wasn't the mind-blowing experience everyone talks about.

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!

Haven's Creamery's original location is in London, ON and in the Fall of 2022 they opened their…read moresecond location here in Ottawa in The Glebe. I had been meaning to try them since they opened but I wasn't quite feeling for ice cream in the Fall or Winter and then when Spring and Summer came along the lines were out the door, and you know me, I hate lines and crowds, lol. So finally on a warm but gloomy and overcast Sunday in June, I found myself in The Glebe walking by Haven's Creamery and lo and behold it was empty! So my husband and I went in for a couple of scoops of their ice cream. I was deciding between their London Fog, Passion Fruit Cheesecake and Strawberry flavours. I was offered samples of all three and I decided on the Passion Fruit Cheesecake (the London Fog flavour was too subtle for me, I was hoping for more potency. And the Strawberry while tasty was too ordinary for me, haha). My husband was much more decisive and didn't even sample anything. He got the Mint Chocolate Chip. We got our scoops in a bowl and they were $5.25 each. The Passion Fruit Cheesecake had a nice passion fruit flavour to it. Not as potent as I would have liked, but it was pronounced enough. It had pieces of cheesecake in it along with graham cracker crumb crust. It wasn't too sweet, which I appreciated. It was good. I had a taste of my husband's Mint Chocolate Chip and I really appreciated that it didn't have any artificial green colour. The mint was subtle and the chocolate chips were too large and too hard for my liking. However, he enjoyed it. Overall, I'm glad I finally got to try Haven's Creamery. I like that they have more creative flavours. The portion size was rather small, so it was a bit spendy for my wallet, so I won't be a regular, but definitely happy to have more ice cream options in town. Service was pleasant. There are 2 tables for 2 with chairs at the front of the store and a couple of high tables with no chairs. They sell ice cream by the pint as well. Street parking only.

At $4 MINIMUM per custard, I can get a much more delicious ice cream at competing establishments (even Dairy Queen). Overall, would not recommend as there are better options at the grocery store or even anywhere else in Ottawa. In conclusion, it is of my opinion that frozen custard should not be a thing... at least not at this price point. Two stars for effort.

This was my first time visiting the Chimney Cake Shop on Bank Street, and I have to say it was a…read morepleasant surprise! I walked in not really knowing what to order or what to expect, but luckily I was the only customer at the time, so I had the chance to take it all in. * Service: The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the experience easy and welcoming. * Portion size: The cakes are huge! Honestly, I think a smaller size option would be great, but if you're hungry or sharing, the big portion works. * Texture & taste: Don't expect it to be like a BeaverTail--it's closer to the texture of a freshly cooled scone. The mix of crunchy outside, soft inside, and the added nuts made it really enjoyable. Overall, I'd definitely recommend trying it out if you're curious about chimney cakes. It's a fun treat, different from the usual Ottawa sweets, and worth experiencing at least once!

TL;DR/The Short Version: Ottawa has a chimney cakes store…read moreagain! The cakes are a little thin and not as fluffy as I like, but still good. The Long Version: I had chimney cakes for the first time in 2015 at the short-lived Chimney Cake Bake 'N' Roll store in Bayshore Mall. It was thick and fluffy and tasty. The one I recently had at Chimnies was a bit thinner and less fluffy, but still enjoyable. Chimnies recently opened up on Bank St. I went in November 2024 and the man working there told me they've been open for 2 months. I'm thrilled to have a chimney cake store in Ottawa again, as we had none after Chimney Cake Bake 'N' Roll closed down. Chimnies was having a BOGO (buy one get one free) deal in UberEats: $8.50 for a Biscoff Chimney Cake. I ordered this for pickup. My husband and I usually like to share our food, but thanks to this deal, we each had our own. He finished his, but I found a whole one a bit too much for me in one sitting, so I saved about a third of it for later. The Biscoff Chimney Cake had Biscoff cookie crumbs on the outside (Biscoff butter cookies with a hint of caramel) and a Biscoff spread on the inside. The man working there was courteous. It's takeout only. There is no seating inside. Street parking only. (204)

OK, I kid you not, this place will blow your mind. Earlier this week, I tried the bear claw and…read moremocha almond single ice-cream cone, and I was back within the week to try it again. This time, I ordered the bear claw and the caramel coconut crunch, which didn't disappoint. The taste and unique flavors are off the charts here. The price is on point, very fair for the size they give. The single was two scoops for $5.75, and they even sell chocolate goods and waffle cones. For me to come back so soon and want more speaks for itself! The only reason I don't give 5 stars is because seating is very limited. There are a few chairs in the front, and most people are eating and chatting near their cars or in the lot. I touched grass and watched the sunset--perfecto! OK, je ne plaisante pas, cet endroit va vous époustoufler. Plus tôt cette semaine, j'ai essayé le "bear claw" et le cône de glace simple au moka et aux amandes, et j'étais de retour dans la semaine pour en reprendre. Cette fois, j'ai commandé le "bear claw" et le "caramel coconut crunch", et je n'ai pas été déçu. Le goût et les saveurs uniques sont incroyables ici. Le prix est juste, très raisonnable pour la taille. Le simple était deux boules pour 5,75 $, et ils vendent même des produits au chocolat et des cônes gaufrés. Le fait que je sois revenu si rapidement en dit long ! La seule raison pour laquelle je ne donne pas 5 étoiles est que les places assises sont très limitées. Il y a quelques chaises à l'avant, et la plupart des gens mangent et discutent près de leur voiture ou sur le parking. J'ai touché de l'herbe et regardé le coucher du soleil--parfait !

Yummy!! Always fun to go and try the new flavours. The new location is spacious (I would say at…read moreleast 5-10 tables for seating) with warm lighting (and strong air conditioning!). There's also a small public square with some benches outside that will absolutely be useful for busy summer nights. My recommendation is to grab an ice cream sandwich bar from one of the freezers where you line up to order - great textures, fresh flavours, and lots of fun. Easy to split with a loved one! Prices are a bit high, but Moo Shu sources local ingredients (with the names of local farms on the flavour signs!), and pays employees a livable wage. It's a great place to stop by and support, while trying a delicious new flavour. Their new location is absolutely a step up :)

It really pains me to write a partially negative review of a really cool place like Moo Shu Ice…read moreCream & Kitchen, but if a flavor is inedible, that's a pretty big deal. I showed up around 9:00 on a random Tuesday and the place was impressively packed. The line was snaking out the door but it moved quickly. I've always been a huge fan of French Onion Soup, so when I saw a flavor called French Onion Scoop, I obviously had to get it. It's not good. The quality of the ice cream itself is top-notch (i.e. it's super creamy) but the flavor is just kind of gross. Plus there's a lot of sautéed onion in there and I think there's a reason onion and ice cream have never been combined before. I ate some of my cup but wound up throwing most of it away. To paraphrase Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park, Moo Shu was so preoccupied with whether or not they could make a French Onion Soup inspired ice cream flavor, they didn't stop to think if they should. (I should note I also tried a couple bites of their DunkaMoo's ice cream sandwich and it was really delicious, so obviously they are capable of making an excellent product.)
