Oh my gosh I cannot say enough about this place. Esther’s personality is enough to turn a bad day into a great day for anyone. It makes me think of Gilmore girls when they opened up their own inn. This place is just a gem. I’ve tried it a few times and for different things each time. I’ve never been disappointed. The staff have rapport with every customer is seems. They always seem to be enjoying themselves. The food is great. The baked goods are amazing. The atmosphere is just so uplifting. It’s very positive energy. Coming in here feeling low and it just is so uplifting. Esther’s energy is so heartwarming. This is quickly becoming a favourite spot for me in Ottawa to come and get a blt and a treat. I highly recommend. The food is served very quickly as well.

Went to Esther’s this morning on a whim while looking for a bakery nearby. This perfect little place came up on my google search so I stopped in. Incredibly cute, warm and very clean space. I was served by Esther herself; a warm and friendly owner! I got a variety of baked goods that were SO DELICIOUS and such a hit with my staff team. Will absolutely be back!

Esther’s is an amazing place. Her cupcakes are delicious and beautiful. My favorite hot food is her meatball sandwiches. They are amazing. Our office is upstairs and When we have people visiting us I always buy cupcakes from here. Esther also is one if the warmest, friendliest people I know. She makes the whole building better. Everybody in here knows her and loves her. She also gets a lot of regular clients from outside who come specifically for her good food.

Cute little place. Had an appointment in the building. Service is really nice as they ensure I was good and brought food out to me as I waited at the table. Food tasted so good! Hidden gem of a place in a building. I was struggling with my coffee cup lid and she came out to help me just for that too. Very kind and sweet staff.
