Looking for coffee shops with a bit more personality? This list will have you dropping the names of Ottawa's fabulous independent coffee shops like a local.
Café · West Centre Town-Little Italy-Civic Hospital East · 17 tips and reviews
Anthony Wong: Great coffee and yummy baked goods (even some vegan ones). Excellent place to hang out and play a board game or read a book from their own library!
Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurant · Glebe-Dows Lake · 34 tips and reviews
Luciano Massimo: I would enter into a monogamous relationship with the African Peanut Curry if it weren't for society's regressive attitudes towards curryphilia. I just want to put it in my mouth.
Evan Thornton: No other coffee shop goes through so many personalities in one day; starts the day with coffee and a muffin and ends the day as a hipster DJ lounge. It's great with all of it.
Coffee Shop · West Centre Town-Little Italy-Civic Hospital East · 13 tips and reviews
Evan Thornton: After just one cup of drip coffee ( bold blend ) it was obvious to me that these guys *really* know their coffee -- it had more flavour than a lot of places get out of the espresso machine.
