The retail store is stocked with a wide variety of fresh and frozen food to take home. They offer coffee, tea, baked goods, and lunch. Customers praise the great food at the in-store bakery, including gluten-free items like a kale salad and banana butterscotch muffin. Many enjoy popping in for lunch, a quick snack, or items like protein powder. Favorites include the dill pickle pasta salad, vegetable and chickpea wrap, and cheesecake described as the best in Ottawa. They also offer convenient little cans of wine to enjoy on the patio. The shop provides a top-notch experience with wonderful, friendly, and helpful staff that make you feel at home and like family. The process for ordering and delivery is easy and accurate.

Dinner made simple! A great place for finer grocery items as well.

Amazing soup this time of the year, I noticed it when people walk in they smile.

Delicious meals at a fair price. I would shop here more often if they would leave sesame out of their dishes (or was put in a side container), it’s unfortunate!
