Welcome to Ottawa Spread......thank you for coming…read more Spread is of the farm to table concept and the owner Jules comes from a catering background in Toronto where she owned Pan Bagna Catering which specialized in France and Italian lunch cuisine. She moved to our glorious city - to get away from the ridiculousness of Toronto (my words) so if you work anywhere downtown you can order from their awesome menu which includes the following sandwiches.....Roast Paprika Chicken with a Creamy Dill, Lemon, and Honey Coleslaw or how about Pastrami, Sauerkraut and Russian Dressing......I opted for this one. Super fresh and great flavors. My sandwich came with the Potato Chips and homemade Three Onion Sour Cream and Pickles Dip.....ok I will confess the Philly Sour Cream Dip you buy at Beckers is one of my secret go to's.....I could kill a whole bag of ruffles and that dip. This dip kicks the crap out of that times 100.....i'm glad I can't buy this at Metro or I would weigh 500lbs by xmas. The onions are perfectly caramelized to add such a sweetness to the dip.....ummmmm - I may need to order some tomorrow. and the pickles.......ok, I hate dill pickles.....always have, but apparently they have changed me.....they make their own, and it's a combination of sweet and sour - very crispy and sweet.....nummy. my dessert was their butter tart......I have a weakness for butter tarts and they certainly stepped up to my tart fetish, and for the record their homemade butter tart is $1.50....pretty sure I've paid double that before. They are set up to supply lunch for your office - they will be doing their deliveries via bike courier, so for the "green" people out there that should make you happy. Get some people together in your office and give these girls a call or tweet them @spreaddelivers enjoy Ottawa,

Delicious! Spread came to our office today for a sandwich day. I tried the ham sandwich, with…read morepotato chips and dip. The bread is from Nat's Bread Company (delicious) and was topped with a fabulous ham (maybe a sweet pancetta?). I savored every bite. I was actually sad when I finished it. :-/ Potato chips were nothing special - but - they came with a great dip. Enjoyed those too. - though honestly I was over-full by the time I finished everything. Things to know: They will cater. They will also do a thing where they drop by with an assortment of sandwiches and people can buy what they want. All in all, loved the product - and the service. Would I recommend: Yes Would I return: Yes - as in, if they came to our office again, I'd be happy happy happy

Flavors were not very relevant, and one piece of salmon has a weird taste. The dominant taste was the sushi rice, and the makis were a bit dry.

I walk over for the : tiramisu, stuffed grape leaf with rice, tabbouleh salad, beef pies by the dozen, Italian pepperettes and the many prepared salads that greet you when you walk in the door.

I also enjoy the Portuguese custard tarts and frozen meals at the back, too! Customer service has always been very friendly, cheerful and comfortable. Presentation is lovely.

They are very generous with the portions as well. Thank you again. Recommend them any time for any occasion. They do have a big selection of prepared foods. It is like a small grocery store but more than a grocery store. Food and spices from different cultures and some Italian and Lebanese desserts. You have to try it !!!!!!

A Short Version: American cookie chain that is known for…read morebeing open late. Good variety of flavours but nothing too creative. The Long Version: I happened upon Insomnia Cookies during their Grand Opening on December 6, 2025 while walking around The Glebe. I got the Double Chocolate Mint Classic Cookie $3.45 to try and it was tasty, but nothing too special in my opinion. I like creative or unusual flavours and their entire lineup was regular flavoured cookies. The cookie was served warm and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. However, I can't say I really enjoyed it any more than cookies from the grocery store or Costco, lol. The space was bright and clean. Insomnia Cookies is American and at the time of the writing of this review they only have 4 locations in Canada: Toronto, Hamilton, Kingston and now Ottawa. I was happy to try this brand as I had never had it before, but I'm unsure if I will return for more cookies, since I'm interested in more unique flavours if I'm going to a specialty cookie shop. I do want to try their ice cream though ;) The store is in The Glebe. Street parking only. Review #230 (2025)
