Presse Café - Ottawa, Ontario

It took 15 minutes just to take our orders, then another 30 minutes to make it. It was 4 sandwiches. I thought that for $60 it would at least be fast enough so we can eat but no. Needed to have that to go and ate it cold much later. ... So understaffed that it’s a joke. Don’t go unless you have a couple hours to spare for overpriced cold food. Read more

Went there for a coffee. Waited 10 minutes only one person on front if me. The guy who cooks looks like he just woke up and hasn't showered in a week. Very greasy looking. I understand this is part of Les Suites Hotel so the prices would be higher than the average local restaurants. ... The previous owners had their prices high but reasonable but over 10$ for a breakfast croissant is insane.. especially made from a guy who's hair looks like it could have greased the flat grill. At 4 bucks a coffee you should be serving it not self serve.. Not recommended.. walk to the rideau to get anything.. Read more

Horrible experience. While the hotel was amazing the coffee place is terrible. I asked for a bit of details on each coffee the person taking order had zero idea and ended up giving me the wrong coffee (but that was the least of my concern). While I was waiting for ... my coffee to be made I witnessed how horrible the new international student was being treated while he made my coffee. He was being yelled at as he tried to figure out the coffee machine and was told to be a "man". I felt bad for this new employee. Maybe train him properly instead of embarrassing him infront of public. Racist owners. Wished I had walked away. Avoid this place. Read more

Located inside the Les Suites hotel, this mom and pop cafe offers breakfast and alcohol options. A meal for 4 people cost much higher than local competitors for the quality and quantity of food you receive. If you need something near by this will do. If you have time, check ... out other near by breakfast locations. Read more

On the bright side; the location is good. That said, the cafe latte tastes like burned beans in warm milk, not that I ever tasted it but but I imagine it would. The food presentation is lacking any attempt to look nice - just splashed on your plate. At least you ... can watch the egg master doing his job - so no worries about cleanliness. Read more
