This is hands down the best place to get corn! 🌽 Every time I stop by, I’m blown away by how fresh, juicy, and flavorful the corn is. Perfectly roasted with that smoky, golden finish — it’s simple but absolutely delicious.

The staff are always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. You can tell they put care into what they serve, and it shows in every bite. Whether you like your corn plain, with butter, or seasoned, it always hits the spot.

I highly suggest making a stop here — it’s the kind of place that instantly becomes a favorite once you try it. A hidden gem worth going out of your way for! You won’t regret it. 👌✨

Probably the best thing I ate in Ottawa, corn is indigenous to North America so I always low-key wonder why I don't eat more of it. If you avoid cheese, mayonnaise, or other additives or don't turn it into corn syrup - it's a healthier alternative to many other snacks since it's incredibly fibrous.

This little stand sold cups of corn for $6 and also delicious lemonade. We dropped by twice while exploring Byward Market and the greater Bytown area for lil snacks.

Ottawa Corn Roaster went above and beyond for our community event, and their presence made such a meaningful impact. The owner, Moe, is genuinely kind and humble—someone who truly cares about people, not just business. His thoughtful engagement brought warmth and joy to the day in a way that’s hard to put into words. Our hearts (and bellies!) can’t thank you enough for your grace and presence. ❤️✨️ And the corn? Absolutely incredible. Always fresh, perfectly roasted, and packed with flavor—you can truly taste the quality and care in every bite. A true local treasure—both the food and the people behind it. We’re so grateful for their contribution and would highly recommend them for any event!

Tried their corn and lemonade at a festival today and it was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend!

This is a roadside cart setup—look for the pop-up tent rather than a traditional storefront. It’s easy to miss if you’re driving by quickly, but absolutely worth stopping for. The lemonade is awesome—fresh, cold, and perfectly balanced. The corn is also excellent, especially the cup of corn done Mexican-style with all the toppings. The owner is super friendly and clearly takes pride in what he’s serving. Great little find if you’re craving something refreshing and tasty on the go.

Awesome friendly folks providing delicious corn cobs. Whenever we visit Byward market we go about searching for them. Too bad, that they are not being given more attention and a fixed place by the authorities! Kudos and keep up the amazing service and great quality of corn cobs! Thanks.

Delicious roasted corn on the cob. And the gentleman running it was very pleasant. We added chili, lemon pepper, butter and salt. The chili was a bit spicy for my wife, but she is a bit of a wimp ?. You can find this place in byward market.
