Ottawa Foodies

I went here for the first time in mid-July and it was Saturday around noon. It was dead in there so the servers were quite chatty and friendly. Haven't tried any of their desserts but I saw a woman buy two pieces of cake, a coffee and a juice and it was something like $22! wow.

We went back again around 8:30 pm another night. We stood in line for about 10 minutes behind about 5 people who were ordering desserts (and yes, we had to wait until their desserts were plated before we were served). We finally get to the counter and hubs orders a latte and I order a decaf coffee. Apparently they don't brew decaf!? He offered me a decaf Americano but at that point I was annoyed at waiting so long I just got nothing. It took them another 5 minutes to get my husband's latte made....

It's been open since about February and I really hope it stays open because not only do I like independent coffee shops, I like a convenient place to get coffee before I sneak it into the AMC :) My experiences have been hit and miss so I am not going to give it thumbs up or thumbs down yet.

They serve Equator coffee that's brewed in Almonte ottawafoodies.com/vendor/1175 My husband claims its the best coffee he's ever tasted. I thought it was good too.

Their paninis were delicious! I had one with brie, walnuts, grilled chicken and a few other things that escape my mind. Husband had one with roasted veggies, goat cheese, pesto and chicken if memory serves me correctly. Both were very delicious and served with a small side/garnish (?) of some type of potato salad which I didn't eat since it had peas in it (eww!)
