Serving as an Italian grocery store and a deli, the selection of foods was incredible. I wish I lived nearby; I'd be there every afternoon to prepare for dinner. Listening to the deli orders that some of the customers made, this truly is a location that has it all. Also has the old-time feel of a neighborhood grocery store. Such an ambiance. I like that far better than the modified Disneyland type of food stores that are all looks and no substance. Excellent service. Attentive and kind. Had a grilled sandwich to go: the Südtirol. Absolutely delicious. Speck, Brie, and fig jam. They hit that one out of the park. We visit Ottawa occasionally; I hope to drop in again!

They have pasta and sauces, vegetables, chocolate and a wonderful cheese section. Fun tip: ask the guys at the counter to recommend an interesting cheese. It's a great way to discover a new taste and they guys are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge. Something else that might not be noticed immediately: you can get sandwiches to go or to eat in at the back south end of the store. Finish up with a nice cappuccino. Would I recommend? Yes Would I return? Yes, one of my favorite spots for a great sandwich.

My husband got a very nice Roast Beef with Ancho & Chimichurri sandwich and He got me a Herbed Egg Salad sandwich. Both cost $9.25. I must say the egg sandwich was not a quality sandwich.

They sell dry goods, they have a deli, a bakery section, and they sell prepared foods too. They also sell alcohol. My husband got us some takeout from there recently and it was pretty tasty. He got us 2 cabbage rolls ($3.50 each), 2 Pork Roulades ($2.50 each) and a huge rum ball ($4.99). He also got himself a beer ($5.99). The cabbage rolls were stuffed with ground pork and rice, and covered in tomato sauce. The cabbage was so soft and tender, like practically fall-apart. The rolls were flavourful and didn't taste too fatty. I enjoyed them. I feel the packaging could have been better. They were packaged in a plastic clamshell container and were put in a plastic bag. The container leaked, but thankfully the bag contained the mess. I'm not a huge fan of hot foods in a plastic clamshell container. The Pork Roulades were packaged in the same way. My feedback is the same, as it also leaked. The Pork Roulades were thinly sliced pork wrapped around a filling of diced vegetables. It too was very flavourful. The pork was melt in your mouth and fairly lean for pork, which I appreciated. The rum ball was gigantic. It was so dense and chocolatey. If you like rum balls in general, I think you will like the ones here. Wedel Touch of Europe Westboro is where Pietro's Corner used to be. Street parking only. They are a nice addition to the neighbourhood.

The Short Version: Premade refrigerated or frozen meals. You…read morecan sign up for a delivery plan or just drop by the store, pick, grab and go. Quick and convenient. The Long Version: Meal Prep Ottawa opened this location in Westboro in May 2023. When they were new, I went in to check it out and discovered they sold refrigerated and frozen meals. To me they looked similar to the prepared foods at grocery stores but with a higher price tag so I wasn't particularly that interested. I'd rather cook my own food from scratch or I'll get a hot meal from a restaurant. Upon consulting their website, they state their meals are unprocessed, have balanced macros and the produce they use is GMO-free. They have Keto Paleo, vegetarian and vegan plans. As well as a regular plan they call "Clean and Mean" lol. Then in April of 2026 I was poking around my UberEats app looking for deals and new places to try and saw that Meal Prep Ottawa had a BOGO (buy one get one free) deal on selected items. I figured it was a good time to finally try something from them. I tried the Seven Grains Salad. It's regularly $5.99 a serving in-store, but UberEats had them buy one get one free for $8.89. So even with the mark-up, I still saved a few bucks. I liked the texture and the multitude of different beans and grains in it, but it was similar to those salads by the weight at grocery stores, although a bit tastier and likely with more quality ingredients. I'm glad I tried it, and it was good for what it was, but I don't think I'll be a regular. I prefer to prepare my own meals from scratch, but it's a good option for those who want such services. Staff were pleasant at pick up. Street parking only. Review #78 (2026)

The Piggy Market is a cute little shop in Westboro that sells meats, cheeses, baked goods and…read moreprepared foods. It's definitely boutique-y as opposed to bargain-y if you know what I mean, lol. My husband loves their Jamaican beef patties, which are "homemade" as opposed to the highly processed stuff sold at supermarkets. I personally find them too greasy, but they are very flakey and filled with more meat than any other Jamaican beef patty I've ever seen! Their donuts are just ok, in my opinion, nothing remarkable. If you like European-style potato salads, I think you might like the potato salad at Piggy Market. The potatoes are firmer and it's less mayonnaise-y than North American potato salad. Their prepared meals are good to grab and go, but a bit pricey for what they are, in my opinion. For example, their vegetarian poke bowl is $14.50, which is about the same price as freshly prepared and customizable vegetarian bowls elsewhere. Pricing, aside, the food at Piggy Market is generally tasty. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The shop is on a side street off the main drag. It's right by Winston Square, so when the weather is nice, you can eat at Winston Square. Street parking only.

To…read moreme, The Piggy Market (bakery, deli and craft butcher shop), located in Canada's National Capital Region's Westboro neighbourhood, is making Jamaica proud! Over many, years my Jamaican born family members and I have scoured Ottawa-Gatineau, Miami and Jamaica looking for a Jamaican-style patty that can be described as 'nyam-ing' perfection. The Piggy Market delivers! How do they achieve this? I believe that it's all about their quality ingredients, mouth watering recipes, impactful blend of spices (flavourful heat) and a pastry shell that screams , "I am Jamaica Proud!" Today we visited for the first time and tried the Beef patties and Jerk Chicken patties. We're saving our next visit for Oxtail patties and any other patty menu items that we have yet to try. Every week The Piggy Market highlights a unique specialty patty on their menu. Note to the wise. Call in advance to find out what's available--what's on the patty menu that week.
