Fresh selection of breads and pastries. Delicious soup, salad, and sandwich options. One of the best breakfast and lunch spots in Ottawa (and best place for flaky croissants!) Hard to find a table on weekends as they get very busy for brunch, try to get there before 10am. Sourdough pizza served in the evening.
