Amazing scones . I tried the lemon poppy seed and I liked it so much. The goat cheese sandwich was perfect too. Long line and busy place. I took my food to go and ate it in a nearby park .

Anya Gregory

Went here on a recent trip to Ottawa. The scone sandwiches are great, but I recommend taking them with a soup for a more filling lunch . The goat cheese , tomato pesto , and soup were both delicious.

Recommendations #1) Turkey Stilton on Herb & Onion & Goat Cheese w/Pesto, they are amazing. However when it is busy, be prepared to wait 15-20mins & always double check your order before leaving. :(

(ie If it serves soups and salads with the baked items , and has a seating area, the 'just a bakery ' argument falls a bit flat. Still love it; I go (and an happy to clean up) as often as possible!)

Jason

Nice place for breakfast or brunch , it's on a side street but surprised to see how busy it was!

Arash Narchi

Poached salmon and cucumber on herb and onion scone is solid. Wifi is top notch too

Hina

Poppyseed scone is the best! Their breakfast scone plate is pricy , but really filling and delicious.

Chris Asselin

Cool place and good food. Highly recommend the herb and onion scone with turkey and stilton cheese w/salad. YUMMY!

Yalda Shirazi

Let’s be honest; staff , atmosphere and services are good but quality and prices aren’t. With this price I could have had s.th better in downtown for breakfast .

Elizabeth Malcolm

Their scones are delicious ❤️ made fresh and fall apart in your mouth ????

Michael

To the guy saying 'it's a bakery , not a restaurant ': not reflected in the prices or menu - maybe it's both? :) Great food all day, though, and except for one (rude) older woman, really nice staff !

A R

Very nice staff , great sconewiches. Scones are fresh and amazing

Mia Melamed

Ben Duenas

Great sandwiches . Customer service was on point!

Skip the mealwitches and instead go on the weekends for their brunch plate, which comes with a sweet or savoury scone , fresh fruit and mixed greens. Read more

I can honestly say, I regret not going here sooner. It would and could have saved me a lot of trouble in -30C weather.

Vanilla cream Scone was delish! Service was mediocre, no teaspoons (had to use plastic soup spoons).....I guess I expect something different when there are scones involved.

Camila Jales

The Ham&Gruyère on a herb&onion scone is amazing!

linnie

I love the scones here, but the service is incredibly slow. The "meals" are insanely overpriced for the volume of food you get. Finally, don't get the americano - it's just drip coffee .

Hkling

Super yummy. Buy frozen to heat up at home

NrNr Suliman

The best scones I ever ate !

Cristina

Love love their non-cream puree soups for a healthy option !

Mihai Pascu

The poached salmon scone is great

Paul Dukes

I recommend trying everything. They have seasonal scones as well . The pumpkin scones in the fall are my favorite.

Katerina Rockwell

Go for the sconewitches, so so good!

To the person bitching about cleanup and tables - it's a scone bakery , not a restaurant . People are supposed to carry their dishes up to the counter when done

Two PickyFoodies

If you come in early you will find a table since the staff seem to have forgotten that cleanup is part of their role.

Poached salmon with cucumber scone sandwich . Yummy!

Will Docherty

Excellent food, mediocre service

Nathalie Gravel

Vanilla scone with clotted cream and rhubarb ginger jam . Delicious!

Ian Capstick

Four words: Bacon and cheese melt.

Michael McAdam

The homiest, coziest place for the most delicious breakfast and the comfort of fresh baking.

Raghid Moussa

Way too expensive

Laura Bouchez

J’ai pris un bacon cheese melt. C ’était bon et le cheap. On peut choisir salade ou soupe pour 3$ en plus. Il n’y avait plus de soupe à notre arrivée, mes amies était déçues. Mais on est arrivées à 15h
