50 Best Cafes near Gloucester

“This is my favourite café in Ottawa. I’ve always loved their desserts, but I wanted to comment that I 🩷 absolutely loved 🩷 your Sailor Moon and Sakura Card Captors themed macarons 🥰😍🤩💙💛🩷! They were so cute I almost didn’t want to eat them, lol. Please keep them coming 💜“

“So this was my first introduction to Happy Goat back in 2024. The barista working there was a really great conversationalist and I befriended her then I believe.

I haven't seen here there when I moved in a month ago but the baristas that are there now are just as good, and the coffee is still as good.

It's in the station so the vibe is just ok (I don't think that can be fixed due to location). The coffee shop is geared for take outs and that coffee you need when you need to get to work.“

“Tim Hortons is my favorite place! I always enjoy coming here for the great service and drinks. Today I got the Oreo drink, and it was made by Kulpreet. It was absolutely delicious! Thank you, Kulpreet, for your kindness and for making my day better. Keep up the amazing work!“

“Amazing little place!! Very friendly and delicious waffles.“

“Dropped my 16 year old son and some of his buddies off for the afternoon while I ran some errands downtown. They had a blast ! The started with board games then moved to a table with a TV and various gaming consoles. They ordered lunch and said the food was amazing . When I picked them up I went in and sat with them for a half hour or so, and the boys made me order the cheesecake lol. Its a star destroyer !!! Very cool for this gen x mom lol.

I thought it would made an awesome first date place . Sit , play some games, have a few drinks ans maybe a bite to eat . Fun and relaxing and lots oftime to talk and get to know each other !“

“Très bel accueil, le café juste WOW J'ai pris un café glacé décaféiné et l'équilibre était parfait, pas trop sucré. Je recommande fortement. Bonne continuation :)“

“Original et délicieux 👍 Fait changement des restaurants de pizza a Aylmer“

“A cozy diner-like atmosphere in the heart of Chinatown. Corner Peach is a lovely restaurant that features homemade meals that have a nice zip, tang and variety. In particular, the chicken liver mousse on bread with sour cherry jam is a delight. The desserts are nice, but perhaps a touch over-sweet. Nonetheless, I highly recommend this casual eatery with upscale cooking.“

“Best salads ever - authentic, creative and satisfying. Recommended!“

“I ordered a 9" Lemon-blueberry cheesecake and it was the most delicious cheesecake I ever had! Seriously amazing! nice and rich but not too rich or heavy. absolutely blissful. Thank you SO much!“

“I had the bacon grilled cheese sandwich and I had it when it cooled down, I found it really good and I'd buy one again. I had some small talk with the staff while I waited for the sandwich and they were polite and friendly.

The place is small and tucked away so I feel it's better as a grab and go type of place. It's also close to Parliament Station, Bank street and Elgin Street, so it isn't hard to get here or grab something on the go. There is some space to sit and eatr too.“

“Le meilleur petit café du centre-ville d’Ottawa. Il y a beaucoup d’ambiance.“

“Both a bike (repair) shop and a café.
I've been a client of both services with great satisfaction. Great cozy place to have a coffee, inside or on the patio.
The seasonal drinks menu is always amazing.
Also offers goods from patners small local businesses.“

“Great and quiet place in the Heart of downtown Ottawa for you to enjoy a cup of coffee and that strawberry scone hmmmmmm Ok my favourite is their Moka“

“Wonderful, inclusive folks! Very nice staff, who were very helpful. This may seem like an odd thing to say, but it was really great that they made sure they rented an accessible portable washroom for their large market event. As I was sporting crutches (I recently broke my ankle), it was a total life saver that I didn’t need to take the stairs! Not sure if the port-a-potty is an “always” thing, but just the fact that they had it for their street market when so many folks wouldn’t even think of it made me grateful. Thank you for being the loveliest hosts! I’m not a coffee or tea drinker, but I’ll certainly tell all my friends about how kind the staff were!“

“Next Level scones, order a dozen for take out after you eat here and you won't regret it. Who knew scones could be elevated to replace sandwich bread? This witch did, that's who! Friendship is magic? More like missing this place is tragic.“

“I no longer live in the area but I used to come here a lot with my girlfriend for a coffee and sandwich. This place always felt like a hidden gem, great coffee and really fantastic sandwiches. A really nice chill vibe in here as well. It's one of the few things I really miss about this neighborhood!“

“I had the chance to visit Cosenza Bar and Cafe last night, and from the moment you walk in, it’s an absolutely pleasant experience. The place welcomes you with carefully selected music that perfectly sets the mood for your stay. The server, in my opinion, was one of the most attentive I’ve ever met — constantly checking in on you without ever needing to be called over like in other places.

I decided to try the Pressed Panini “Prosciutto Brie” along with a “Nutella Latte.” Brooo! It was honestly one of the best culinary experiences I’ve had. Every bite was an explosion of flavor on my taste buds, and the coffee… made with authentic Italian roasted beans, had such a bold and rich taste that it made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

Without a doubt, I 100% recommend this place if you want to have an amazing time, whether you’re alone, with friends, or with family. I can confidently say that Cosenza Bar and Cafe is one of the best Italian spots in Ottawa. Treat yourself to this incredible experience and put your taste buds in the hands of this wonderful team — they will not disappoint you.“

“The latest experience was that I ordered an Easter meal for loved ones. They enjoyed it so much two people are actually going to have him cater dinners at their homes. The food is excellent. The story behind Chef Ric and his mission is inspirational and extraordinary. He has made a difference. So is this team? Thank you“

“One of the coffee shops in this area i love to frequent! Usually there's a nice spot to sit and sip on your coffee. I've done some work here on my computer and also used the space to read a book!:) The shop is very cozy feeling, especially in the wintertime!“

“Can’t believe I’ve only just discovered this place. We pass nearly everyday but the outside doesn’t represent the magic that is inside these doors. They roast their own beans, the products are so special (the spices!!) loose leaf teas. Sandwiches were delicious and everyone was so welcoming!“

“purchased a sandwich and decaf iced coffee. it was pretty good. not super sweet, just the way I like it. The server Mikaela was also very kind, patient and helpful when I was struggling with the menu. Need more workers like her. Will come back again.“

“This is the greatest little coffee shop. I made a mistake this morning in thinking that they opened at 8:30 when it is written 9:30, so I walked over from the Saint Paul's Library (been here since 6am) to get a really tasty americano. When I got there the door was locked, however, a very nice gentleman opened the door and I mentioned that Facebook said it was open at 8:30 (which was the mistake). No problem, a little frustrated I walk away but he calls me back in and makes me a very nice coffee to take back. Service like this is hard to find nowadays, so I am very grateful for the coffee and the kindness. Thank you!!“

“Great choice we made this morning to eat at the Best Western’s attached restaurant.
Service was amazing, she was on her own and did an fantastic job. The food was hot and fast. I would come here even if I was not staying at the hotel. Thanks for the wonderful start to the day. Thanks again and see you again. Was special to be able to speak to the owner earlier that morning since I was in the lobby and he spoke to me since we are both very early risers !!!!!“

“In true Iraqi fashion, you’re treated like a guest in someone’s home.
This place offers a beautiful slice of culture. It’s the perfect place for a nice conversation.
If you’ve never tried Iraqi coffee (often referred to as Qahwa), you are missing out on one of the most aromatic and soulful coffee traditions in the world. It isn’t just a drink; it’s a gesture of hospitality.
The owner offer sometimes free
warm, spiced chickpeas (Iraqi Lablabi) or a chopped fresh fruit platter.
Highly recommended coffee shop.“
