Ideal Cafe - Ottawa

What a wonderful cafe! It is so cute here, they have specialty coffee drinks for the summer like strawberry macchiato, which is so good! The sandwiches are fantastic! I enjoyed a veggie wrap and the italian deli sandwich, so worth it! Also a cute spot to come and study. Very calm and welcoming vibes Vegetarian options: They have like 3-4 vegetarian options on the menu

This place has earned a spot among my favorite coffee spots. The coffee is brewed to perfection and offers a delicious taste. The atmosphere is unique and refreshing, breaking away from the typical coffee shop vibe without being pretentious. The staff are friendly, provided you're polite with your pleases and thank-yous. I highly recommend their coffee or espresso; nothing compares to their great taste. Don't miss out on their amazing scones, but make sure to arrive early as they tend to sell out quickly.

Love the food and drinks here. The service is always wonderful and the staff are fantastic. My one issue is that in the past few months the WiFi almost never works and as a result, its hard to get work done.The staff are great and they try to fix it (e.g., reset it) but it still doesn't really work.

Ideal Coffee has been my go to spot for fresh roasted espresso for my home espresso machine for the past 3+ years. I drink their espresso daily, and it is always super consistent, fresh, perfectly roasted, and wonderfully flavorful.Brazilian Espresso (5/5) this is my daily go to bean of choice for a bold flavored espresso with notes of chocolate and nutts, as well as a pleasant sweetness. It shines through milk based drinks beautifully, and tastes equally incredible as a shot or iced American (for the summer) as well! I brew at home with Breville Infuser and Smart Grinder Pro.If you're into dark roasts, their Princess of Darkness beans is my favorite dark roast I've had. It also deservingly won best coffee at Ottawa Coffee Fest a couple years back!All their food is also delicious. The breakfast wrap is super cheesy and enormous; guaranteed to fill you up! The BLT was also amazing; bacon had great flavor and the bread choice was perfect ?

?? owned and run. Their coffee is very high quality and you can bring some home if you wish to buy. Some nights they host cultural events and they have a special menu which is displayed in the picture. Pão de queijo and Caldo de Feijão Brazilian treats for your palate appreciation ?
