We came here because it was coffee and walking distance from where we were staying. Pleasantly…read moresurprised by the decor and tea room. 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.

Boyfriend and I met his cousin here this afternoon at her suggestion. Beautiful little café and it…read morewas nice to go somewhere else than a chain for once! Beautifully decorated with a vintage vibe and lots of shabby-chic pieces. They seem extremely popular and busy even mid-afternoon; jammed-packed the whole time we were there and with a waiting line-up for a table. Gentleman who seemed to be the owner or manager was extremely pleasant and went above and beyond to find us a table quickly (even moving chairs around) after Cousin and I explained that Boyfriend (who was outside parking the car) would never wait for the 30 min announced at first. All the staff there seemed very nice, fast, constantly cleaning, arranging seating, serving, etc. We only had coffees (which were fine but nothing mind blowing) so I cannot judge on the menu. Would recommend this place though, if only for the super hardworking staff!

Came here for breakfast sweetness last weekend!…read more The inside of this cafe is beautifully decorated. A bit confusing if you're not a local because there is not a real service restaurant. You wait to be seated but you order first and they bring your selection to your table. Water is available but you serve yourself. They serve a variety of sweet and savoury crepes but also a variety of yummy desserts. It is a very busy place and I can see why! The crepes and variety of crepes are out of this world! I ordered the biscoff crepe....it was beyond yummy. It's the type of yumminess where you complete forget your with someone and focus solely on every morsel eaten. Definitely a must visit spot if you enjoy crepes both savoury and sweet! I will be back!

This is such a cozy and adorable place. As it's just around walking distance to the hotel I stayed,…read moreit was a nice walk to this cafe. The outside does not justify the inner interior of this cafe. There is so many different corners to choose from, if only dine- in is allowed. With the closure during COVID, only takeout is allowed for now. But I did just walk around while my coffee is being prepared and pastries packed. There are several corners from a fireplace, to the communal table, along with the library of books corner and window with good lighting and surrounded by plant that one can choose if they had the luxury of dining in. Coffee- I ordered Americano and Flat White (used Oat milk) and found the coffee was about weak. Pastries - They were both amazingly delicious. The Chocolate pastry and a sour cherry yoghurt pastry caught my eye and those were both good choices. There were also good food and pastries offering. This is definitely a cafe that is be back if I am in Ottawa again.

The place was busy, but not crowded at all and we were able to easily find a seat. We ordered an omelette on an English muffin, smoked salmon on a bagel, flat white and a milk shake. Milk shakes are made fresh with ice cream. Breakfast food was just reheated pre-made, however the staff was wonderful and made us a fresh bagel with cream cheese when we asked for no onions. The flat white was great, similar but a bit better, then Starbucks. They have lots of non dairy options like soy and oat milk. The decor and food was standard for a coffee chain, would be nice if there was more local charm or more fresh made options.

Looking forward to returning many, many times.

Was really skeptical about having bbl tea from a shop called Laboba in Ottawa. Glad we tried it…read morethough, because it was excellent. I got the brown sugar milk tea and it was so tasty. Probably one of the best options in Ottawa for bbl tea. Ambiance is clean and cute. Looks like the owners are currently the baristas, so they put a lot of effort into explaining their drinks and making sure it's to your satisfaction.

It's nice to see the plants all around you with lovely flowers .
