Description

Première Moisson in Ottawa is a welcome addition to the city's food scene, offering high-quality breads, pastries, and desserts that are a step above many local options. The croissants are particularly recommended, rivaling those found in France. Despite some language issues with staff, the overall experience is pleasant, with well-prepared lunch options and friendly service. The coffee may not be remarkable, but the food more than makes up for it. The location on the University of Ottawa campus may not be convenient for everyone, but it's worth the trip for the delicious offerings.

Make sure to try the almond croissant, it's absolutely amazing! I can't stop thinking about it!

I recently tried one of the best cups of coffee in Ottawa at this restaurant. Their dark roast was exceptionally strong, similar to stove-top espresso rather than traditional drip coffee, but it was still surprisingly smooth. If you prefer to add milk or cream to your coffee, be prepared to add more than usual to achieve your desired coffee-to-dairy ratio because of its bold flavor.

One of the few places on campus with good food. One of the few places on campus with good, freshly made food. It has an overall fancy, artisan bakery vibe to it. Only down side is it's very pricey.

I am thrilled to have a Premiere Moisson in Ottawa and so close to my home. The food is consistently of high quality and delicious. I recently purchased a tourtière, chicken pot pie, a loaf of honey raisin bread, fruit ketchup, and a selection of individual desserts for a dinner party and everything was fantastic. Despite being located on the Ottawa campus in a rather odd location, I truly hope they succeed. For first-time visitors, I highly recommend trying the chocolatine (chocolate croissant).

Delicious lunch from one our reps. This chicken Caesar salad is so yummy! My box also came with a slice of apple pie which was the perfect ending to my filling lunch!
