My mom and I love Middle Eastern pastries, so I stopped by to pick up a few items on my way to my parents house. Some of their items are sold by weight and some by the piece. I got a piece of Shaabiyat (triangle shaped pastry made of phyllo stuffed with custard) for $2. I also got a piece of shredded phyllo Kunafa, a piece of semolina Kunafa, and a piece of cake layered with ashta cream and pistachio nuts. These 3 pastries were $23/kg and it cost me $12.65 for all 3 pieces. The Shaabiyat was quite sweet, but I still enjoy it, while every thing else was perfect for me, so much less sweet than at other bakeries. I loved it! My parents felt the other pastries were not sweet enough for them, but they just poured some of the honey syrup that came with the pastries on it and felt it was perfect. I love how you can control the amount of sweetness. Everything was delicious. I will be coming here for all my Middle Eastern pastries from now on. The lady serving me was very friendly. Part way through, a man came to the front and advised me that the piece of cake I ordered was from yesterday and he can get me a fresh one. Oh yes, please! Also they had some freshly baked Shaabiyat at the back and they would bring that tray out. Nice! I was so thrilled to be getting fresh items (I came on a Saturday morning). The lady also gave me a sample of their baklava while I was waiting. They did not have any Znoud El Sit while I was there, but hopefully next time, as this is my favourite Middle Eastern pastry. I am so glad that I discovered this place! It's in the Plaza on Vanguard at Tenth Line. Same plaza as Li's Fusion, Ali Baba Bakery and Chocolat Favoris. Lots of free parking.

Celina Bakery recently opened up (May 2024) where Orleans Bakery used to be. They sell Middle…read moreEastern meat pies and Pide. I was at my parents' house and my brother dropped off a meat and egg Pide for us, which was super sweet of him, but it was covered in sesame seeds, so I could only eat this tiny corner where they missed sprinkling the sesame seeds (I can handle mild contamination. I wanted to have a taste, but didn't want to push my luck, lol). The tiny bit I sampled didn't have any egg on it though :( It was good. The pastry was soft and fluffy and the ground meat was flavourful. My parents really enjoyed it. I think it was their first time having Pide and my dad said he liked it better than Manakish/Lahmacun because the dough was softer. Celina Bakery sells the other types of meat pies too. I'll need to make a visit there myself sometime and order the food without sesame seeds to get a better taste of the food, but I enjoyed the little I had, and I wanted to spread the word about this newly opened bakery in Orleans! :) There's free parking available onsite.

The Short Version: American cookie chain that expanded to…read moreCanada in recent years. Large sweet and rich cookies. A bit pricey in my opinion. The Long Version: Crumbl was founded in 2017 in Utah (USA) and expanded to Canada in 2023 and Ottawa got its first location in June of 2024 in College Square. The location I'm reviewing though opened in The Orleans Gardens Shopping Centre (it's actually a plaza) in October of 2025. When Ottawa's first Crumbl location opened, the lines were epic for months. I'm not one to stand in line for food, and especially not for food from a big chain, so I waited until the hype died down and then admittedly lost interest for a while, lol. Then in February 2026 I was spending time with my little nieces and decided to get us a cookie from Crumbl to share (I had already treated them to a donut each at Tim Hortons earlier that day, so I didn't want to overload them with too much sugar, lol, but I'm sure they would have gladly eaten an entire cookie each). I got us the Twix Caramel Shortbread Cookie ($6.29). Although it's larger than your average cookie I still find the price rather high. However the cookie did taste good. The shortbread cookie was very rich and buttery. The caramel was sweet and gooey. The chocolate on top was good and I liked the broken pieces of Twix bars. Overall though it was a bit too sweet for me. I had 1/8th of the cookie. My older neice ate 3/8 and my younger neice ate 1/4 of the cookie. My brother and mother split the remaining 1/4 so the kids wouldn't be too wired, haha. So everyone got at least a little taste. The kids loved it. The adults found it too sweet. The shop is takeout only. They have 2 ordering kiosks where you order and pay and enter your name. Then your name appears on their screen that tells you where you are in the queue. When your order is ready they call out your name. Staff were pleasant, but I had limited interaction with them. Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot. Review #32 (2026)

We got 5 items and overall they were very good. Mom said they tasted like regular desserts and she couldn't tell they were gluten-free. I agree. We are not gluten-free, we just love desserts so wanted to check out this new bakery ;) We got a lemon square ($4.50), a Nanaimo Bar ($4.50), carrot cake slice ($6), a blueberry scone ($4) and a slice of maple cheesecake ($5.99). Everything was moist and rich. Nothing was dry nor crumbly. The blueberry scone was my favourite. It was chock-full of big plump blueberries. They have a good variety of baked goods, both sweet and savoury. In the grocery store section they have gluten-free snacks such as crackers and also different gluten-free flours and mixes. Staff were friendly. Lots of free parking in the strip mall parking lot.

I heard their cones can be sweet depending what you get, so I originally wanted to get a kiddie size, but they don't "kookie cone" that size, so I went with the small. The small is more like a large. It is shareable, if you like sharing your ice cream cone. I'm not a good sharer, but by the end of this cone, I was trying to pond it off to my husband. It was just too much. I got the chocolate hazelnut. He got the cotton candy. Both were good. This location is in a strip mall. They have a patio in the back where you can enjoy your ice cream. I personally like walking or going to a park to eat mine, so we drove up the closest place of greenery, which was in front of a hydro Ottawa building and ate our ice cream there. If this place was in a more convenient location, i'd probably go back, but for me it wasn't worth the hype or the drive. It's more of a once a year, type of treat.

Now that this location has opened, I only pick up pies here! The service at this location is remarkable, always welcomed with a smile, the service is quick as well even when there's a line up. The establishment is clean, you can seem them kneading the dough in the back, putting the ingredients on the pie, ready to be made in the domed oven. My favourite is the meat with cheese! However, all their selection of meat, cheese, Zatar, & Veggie pies are delicious. They are oozing with flavour especially when eaten fresh! It not $1.00 anymore but considerably priced. Highly recommend!

The chicken and cheese, and donair and cheese ones are ok too, but the dough is too thick. The cream cheese and olives one has the thin dough that I like, but it was too salty.

From my experiences at both locations, the selection is better and staff are more competent at this one. I usually go to one or the other when I'm grabbing some Timmies for my parents, as they are both close to their house. The Tenth Line Road one is closer, so I usually go there, but more and more I'm going to this one instead. Like most Tim Hortons, this one has a drive thru. It has a small dine in area as well. No patio or outdoor seating, which is part for the course for a Tim Hortons anyway. I'm a bit disappointed that since June 2020 Tim Hortons is supposed to offer skim milk as an option, but this location does not have it yet. So I have to settle for 2%. Lots of free parking as it's in a plaza.

The menu is simple and short but still has basically all the popular brunch items. I got the breakfast sandwich in both the croissant and bagel. Overall very enjoyable! The croissant was very good and buttery but it was kind of messy to eat. I would probably stick with the bagel next time! For drinks I tried one of the staff recommendations and a drip coffee. I'm not a coffee connoisseur but I thought the Lilly was very good, sweet but not too heavy or sugary, but it was a little bit expensive for the price as the cup was fairly small. Price was okay overall factoring in the sandwich as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my breakfast here and would love to come back next time I'm in town!
