I've been wanting to try rolled ice cream ever since I learned of its existence a few years ago,…read morebut as many know, Ottawa is often behind with trends. Ottawa's first rolled ice cream shop was another location of Roll'd Up that opened on York St in the Byward Market not only in the middle of the Covid Pandemic, but in the middle of winter! I still haven't made it there, but was so excited to see another location open up in Lansdowne Park. And when it was technically Spring, although didn't really feel like it yet, lol, I went to check it out. So the Lansdowne location just opened the last week of March 2022. They had been open for 1 week when I visited. I got a small Strawberry Cheesecake rolled ice cream ($8.95) and my husband got a small Skor rolled ice cream ($8.95). It's pretty pricey, but I think the price includes the "show" they put on as they make it, lol. So they pour the ingredients onto this frozen metal sheet and they mix it. Then they spread it out real thin. Then they roll it. It's pretty fun to watch. The ice cream also tastes really good. Very rich and creamy. I asked for "a lot of whipped cream" and they certainly delivered, lol. You can see my pictures. My husband's has the regular amount of whipped cream and mine has extra ;) Service was very friendly. You order and pay with the Cashier near the cafe and cakes area, then you take your receipt and let the Ice Cream Roller know what your order was. The ice cream takes a while to prepare, so I can see how the wait would be long if it were busy. They sell coffee and tea, as well as cake slices (I think the cakes are from Dufflet Pastries from Toronto). It's a really cute place to hang out or for a date. So glad I got to try rolled ice cream!! Street parking only (if you can find any), or you can use one of the paid parking lots nearby.

The shop is located just behind some of the fruit vendors and they had a fairly decent selection, including ice cream sandwich doughnuts- I wish i had seen these before I bought mine haha. I feel like I need to start off by saying the only reason i'm not giving 5 stars is cause I have come to the conclusion that I don't love cake batter doughnuts. I always find them too dense but, also with that said, these ones are the best cake batter doughnuts I have had. I chose a chocolate peanut butter doughnut and it was rather tasty. The icing wasn't overly sweet and the doughnut was just the right size and had the right moisture to it. Sometimes cake batter doughnuts can be dry and crumbly. It was just the right little treat to eat outside and people watch in the market.

This place was very much hyped by friends and family so I was excited to try it! It's a bit pricier…read morethan some of my other donut spots but great flavours & taste came through

Really cute place that sells Belgian waffles and drinks…read more They had a BOGO (buy one get one free) special on UberEats, which is what led me to check them out, lol. I got a Strawberry, Banana Nutella and Whipped Cream Waffle for $9 and got another free. The waffle itself was delicious. They are Belgian waffles, so a bit denser with great texture. The toppings were good, although I would have liked more whipped cream, but I like to eat bowls full of whipped cream, so maybe I like whipped cream more than the average person, haha. I love the compostable birch cutlery. And the takeout containers are aluminum, which are recyclable. I think cardboard boxes would be even better, but I'm thankful they don't use the dreaded styrofoam. I picked up my UberEats order so had minimal interaction with staff, but the guy there was courteous and efficient. Theres no seating inside the store, but a few seats outside in front of the store. Street parking or paid parking lot nearby only.

Absolutely love this place! It was my first time visiting and it won't be my last. The inside of…read morethe store has super cute vibrant decor - perfect for a fun night out or just a place to grab a bite while playing board games with friends. They have a stack of board games in the store, along with an arcade and a PS5 (although you have to pay extra to play on the PS5, everything else is free to use). The staff were nice, and the food didn't take too long to arrive. Personally, I found the Rocky Road waffle to be delicious, and it tasted like s'mores to me which just made it even more delicious. The milkshakes were good, and so was the lotus crepe, but nothing special. There's a reserved parking for Choc-o-La customers only, which made it easier to find a spot to park. For reference, the Rocky road waffle was $17, the Lotus crepe was $16, the green tea was $3, and the Oreo milkshake was $10 (not including tax).

Really cool space, definitely would be great for an afternoon tea. They have an outdoor patio, not that it was being used despite the beautiful day. Pastries and food selection is great. The staff is friendly... but slow and easily distracted. The cashier was taking a phone order while several of us were waiting, pretty unacceptable when another staff member should be able to take a call. We ordered a coffee and a mimosa. Well, they had to go back and check to see if they had juice... they did not. I asked for just the bubbly instead, she had to go back and check again. How do they not know or keep things on their menu in stock? Oh well, they had the bubbly so it was okay. For food we ordered a pastry and a croissant sandwich. The biscotti and pastry were delicious. For some reason, they decided to panini press the croissant sandwich. What the heck, who would do that? Why didn't they ask? Tasty sandwich, but completely ruined due to crushing the croissant. We were expecting it to come straight out of the case and at most maybe microwaved to warm it, not just destroyed in a panini press. Cool vibes, nice atmosphere, food is good, tea menu looks amazing. But, the staff don't seem to have a clue to what they are doing.

Coffee was good, service was prompt, and the food came out quickly. We found this spot after another brunch place nearby closed earlier, and we're glad we did. Love that they're open until 3 and really enjoyed the cozy, welcoming ambience. Seating is a little on the tighter side since one wall is all bench seating, but it still felt comfortable overall.
