Brown Loaf Bakery - Ottawa, Ontario

A cozy bakery with a very friendly owner:) I got a sourdough loaf that he offered to cut (the slices are perfect!!) and it came out warm. The inside was incredibly soft but the crust had a nice crunch. Would be The only downside was that there was no tip ... option on the machine and I didn't have change on me. Will definitely be going again!! Read more

The best cheese croissants in the world!!! Small, quaint, beautiful little place with the best cheese croissants you fill find. Owner is kind and provides great service.

Wonderful hidden gem! I visited 2 weeks ago (from France/germany), and was delighted to find this baker making many traditional French recipes (great gâteau basque, croissants), and delicious sourdough bread. The baker himself is also so friendly and kind, talking to him put me in a great mood. Thank ... you for your great food and warm service, will definitely return next trip! 🙏🏻 Read more

This place has by far some of the best chocolate croissants i’ve ever tried in my life. I’ve had chocolate croissants in Paris and these are very comparable to that. They are crispy on the outside and super buttery and flakey on the inside. The cookies are amazing as well. ... The kind old man is very hospitable and this place has something for everyone.

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! Read more
