The absolute best pecan butter tarts I've ever had! Don't let the small storefront fool you, the baked goods are amazing.

We visited later in the afternoon on a weekday and still found a lot of delicious items still to be had including pies (strawberry and blueberry varieties) loaves of bread (regular & sourdough) cookies, tarts, macaroons, macrons, meringues (with a cute sign about not squeezing!) and date squares. There was probably more packed into this little space! This bakery seems to punch above its weight class. Everything we purchased was delicious, and the owner is just an exceptionally friendly gentleman full of gratitude for each of his customers. Glad we found this gem!

My favourite bakery in town! Everything here is amazing.

This is the best place in Ottawa to get your baked goods!!!! My personal favourites are the croissants and banana chocolate muffins. Not to mention the owner is amazing, I work close to there so I go at least twice a week. He remembers me every time and I always get a warm smile and a friendly chat. This gentleman truly makes my day shine when I visit his bakery, not only for the baked goods but because of his personality.

Try and get There before everything is gone! Ask if you don't see it! Just moved here from GTA and tried a half dozen places before finding this awesome guy. Everything he makes tastes good.

I came at 9AM there were a couple of baked goods. I simply asked the attendant who seemed to be the owner of the bakery if these were from yesterday. He got upset with the question, started laughing inappropriately and questioned if I was Canadian.

I visit this bakery once a week in the morning to get a freshly baked croissant. Without a doubt, I leave with buttery goodness straight from the oven and a smile every damn time. I have yet to taste a better croissant than at Brown Loaf. The owner of the bakery is probably the sweetest man you will ever meet, he is very kind and you can tell he loves what he does. I've placed large-ish orders for staff events and he didn't have an issue with the order. I've had strawberry shortcake puffs, white bread and a peach danish, all delicious! Highly recommend if you are in the Elgin area.

I go once (sometimes twice) a week with my partner to get croissants and other treats. The bakery is an Ottawa icon and truly is the best bakery in Ottawa. He puts so much love and care into all he bakes and you can tell. Great guy, great bread. 10/10 worth trying and going to whenever you can.

This chocolate croissant is the tastiest I've ever had! They also have good brownies, and the staff is super friendly.

I'm convinced the great reviews are lies. The scone I had was so dry, it would make gravel jealous.

Pleasant bakery with tasty cookies! Served by a little old man with such a welcoming and gentle smile. Definitely becoming a regular and will be recommending this to my friends!
