Ok desert, quite sweet, service so so, coffee is ok. Surprised by the overall high score.
Very nice place to stop for a hot beverage. The London fog was amazing and the dessert selection is beautiful.
What can I say that hasn't been said before? You want a great dessert after a great meal (elsewhere), this is the spot! Location is prime, price are great, atmosphere is amazing! And the choices, I should almost remove one star... too many choices!!! :P Everytime I have out of town friends, this is where I bring them ... or even local that enjoy cake and never been! You love cake (and who doesn't), just go, stop reading this!
Service could have been friendlier. Had the baklava cheesecake and cookie monster. Cheesecake was super good, 2nd one was decent as well
Over priced, slow service, good cake!
Very interesting variety of cake. Great flavours available
Always a great place to go for coffee and dessert. Plus they usually have gluten-free options.
Huge selection of cheesecakes and cakes.
Amazing atmosphere, great products, great coffee! Staff is warm and friendly, beautiful and unique space
Pricey but very good desert.
Amazing place and super friendly staff. I am glad my sister insisted to try their cake and coffee. Highly recommendable ????????
Food and coffee excellent Pricing unbelievably high Had no idea it was $26 for two coffees and two pieces of cake There were no prices displayed and once you've waited for 20 minutes to be served you can be a but desperate
Lovely coffee and cakes, a nice treat any time of year.
Delicious cakes! Generous portions for a nice date :)
Great staff Very cozy environment Always left satisfied
Lives up to it's name. Could use more light as the place is dark forcing us to sit by the windows to admire our deserts.
Descent choice of cakes and generous portions. I wish they would change the selection of the 3 gluten free cakes. They are delicious but it has been the only choice for years.
Great cake, large portions.
Wide variety of deserts (mostly cakes) and a little bit of ice cream. Good place for cake lovers. No pastries there.
The cakes were amazing, the atmosphere was great, however all 3 coffee drinks we ordered were just horrible, I am not sure if it was the brand of coffee used or the machine that required cleaning.
Went there for a get together. Great service and amazing drinks.
Great service and tasty milkshake!
Best dessert place ever
great cake but a bit expensive
Awesome dessert shop located in downtown Ottawa! I can honestly that was their hot chocolate was the best I’ve ever had. The temperatures as perfect, the taste was amazing and it was topped with whipped cream! There were also so many options of cakes and I tried the Oreo one which was very good.
Great cake!
Food is good, my friends ordered different cakes and everybody was happy with their choices Staff in the cafe are nice and welcoming BUT: the reason I am only giving 3 stars is the guy that answered the phone! I called few days before my friend's birthday to book a table for 8, he made me feel I am asking for a favor! he barely answers quesitons and with a word or 2! I felt unwelcomed but I said to myself maybe I am getting the wrong impression.. I called few days later to order a birthday cake and same very annoying guy picked up and I was told I can buy it from them but I can't serve it at the cafe!! I was so surprised cause i am coming to celebrate my friend's birthday would obsiouly need to serve the cake then! anyway I realized later (and am guessing here) that a piece or cake is 8.50-9.00 dollars and thats why they want ppl to order seperatly so total would be more money than to get one full birthday cake! so greedy! anyway.. then i asked what would i do? should i bring a cake from outside?!! the same rude guy answered with extreme rudness! he said why do u think u can bring a cake to a cake shop! and laughing and asking me if am serious!!!!! I said "I really find u rude! u r telling me i cant order a cake from you and serve it at my friend's bday and I can't get a cake and basically u r laughing at me in my face!!" such a rude guy, I wish I had the time to find somewehre else but i had arranged the surprise with my friend and my other 7 friends.. the 2 times i called it was late in the morning (around 11;;00 AM) during last week. other than that again, when we went, I think the rude guy was not there, food was good and staff at the cash and serving the desert were very nice.
Nice place. Try chocolate cheesecake
Very nice atmosphere, the coffee is good and the cakes are oh so delicious.
Great service and nice variety of cakes. In my opinion i think theres too much icing between the layers but overall is a good experience and i recommend trying it
Tasty treats, good selection if you want something indulgent
Incredibly delicious cakes.
Awesome place with great food! Really nice staff as well, I highly recommend visiting this place
Excellent. A little pricy but soooooo good!!
Ok I can’t prove it but whomever does their cheesecakes must have had extensive experience at the cheese cake factory! Or better than that!! Their cakes are premium first rate and the choice is endless ! Both amazed and happy at a casual lovely place in downtown Ottawa ! Not to be missed !!!
Reliable good quality desserts
Great dessert choices
I choose 3 desserts, red velvet, caramel and peacan cheesecake and a coconut / lemon cake. It is question of personal taste but I did not like the red velvet since it had a layer of cherry jam, I think, which really gave it a weird taste. But it is a nice place to grab a coffee and dessert.
Awesome place to relax and have a cup of coffee and cake !!
SCAM!!! SCAM!!! SCAM!!! Seller charged for a cake, never received the cake, the seller claims we picked up the cake. Avoid at all cost.
Not really friendly. Maybe they were tired.
Very informal atmosphere. Great for first dates. Desserts are great with large portions. Coffee is good.
Where's the zero start option? A 25 year old business run by those with a 6 year old IQ. Disgusting food. Disgusting people.
Amazing selection of delicacies, Fantastic customer service. Sometimes the products dont have a strong taste of their name (Nutella cake pictured) did not taste allot like nutella but was great tasting in general.
It's always a good decision to get Oh so good! Their cakes are really so so good! Very comforting and always makes me want to come back for more!
If you choose to treat yourself with one of their many delicious cakes, be sure to hit the Byward Market location. A little on the pricey end, still definitely worth it.
Great but very pricey for some cake. Parking ain't easy either.
Great selection, everything is fresh and delicious
This is a great date location! The cake is a bit pricey ($9/slice) but the slices are huge and you could definitely share a slice between two people. Great atmosphere in an intimate setting. In the summer they open up into a patio-like setting as well, and there is artwork for sale on the walls which is unique.
Nothing special. Has the appearance of a place that would serve higher quality coffee but doesn't.
Excellent choice of desserts. I'm not a coffee drinker, but my wife loves their coffee and their tea. The portion size of their cakes is fairly large so be prepared to share. It may seem a little expensive but like I said, the portions are large and very much worth it. Edit (May 2021): Still great tasting desserts, but they have significantly reduced the portion sizes. I've downgraded my review for that reason and they still charge the same prices.
There's a lot of room for this place to improve. As I would like to see it get better, here's my two cents. Pros: The staff was very friendly The cakes tasted good (a little on the extreme sweet side, but good). My favourite thing is the decoration and vibe. It's kind of European in a way because of the art and layout. Cons: There shouldn't be this many flies in a cafe. Easy to fix. Definitely overpriced drinks and desserts for such small quantity. Worth it? Mmm not so much. You ask for a café au lait, they give you some black coffee and expect you to add your own milk. Mmm that's not really how that's supposed to work, especially if it's more expensive than a black coffee. The next time I went, I just ordered a black coffee for cheaper. Do I recommend? If you're looking for a quiet place to just work or meet with friends, yes. Just keep in mind that it's not that budget friendly.
Great spot for a wide variety of cakes and hot drinks. It’s not cheap but I haven’t tried a cake I didn’t like yet.
It was one of my best experiences in Ottawa. Very friendly staff and really delicious cakes and deserts. You wont regret it.
The best place to have a cup of coffee or tea with a nice slice of cake.
Decided to get a birthday cake from Oh So Good because we've had a cake from there before and it was good. This time was not. The cake cost $60 and we had asked to have happy birthday written on it, which wasn't. And it was melted? Not sure if that's even what was happening and then it looked like someone ripped out a piece of the bottom. And one top of all that, the cake itself wasn't great. Will not be ordering from here again.
Noisy...disorganized..long wait time.... Pastries are greasy....taste like lard....
Always a pleasurable experience ❤
Great iced coffee and melt in your mouth cheesecake!
Impeccable service, fun, handy and most of all DELICIOUS!!!
The cakes are amazing and the coffee is one of the best! Very good service too!
My girlfriend and I came here for cake, left with orgasms. Thank you for the friendly service and amazing staff. We will be back shortly! We loved the atmosphere, and there is very interesting art pieces that draw your attention all around the cafe. We also appreciate that you guys are open late. Perfect for those with aare night sweet tooth, like us. Choosing which ones to bite on was no joke. We finally decided on the strawberry cheesecake and green tea tiramisu, both were to die for. The cheesecake was especially sucaculenat and creamy. The matcha tiramisu was delicately delicious- it was the perfect soft and sweet. We need to find places and cakes like this in the West. Thank you again for the amazing atmosphere and food! Lots of love from Edmonton, Alberta.
enjoyed the cake and standup comedy show ????????
Delicious Deserts and coffee spot. Great place to go with friends or a date.
This place was alright. Not the best variety. But it seemed to be all homemade and was good.
Awesome coffee and drinks. Perfect location in downtown Ottawa especially during summer.
Great customer service. Despite the rallies they still wear their masks and follow guidelines to keep us safe. I had a really good matcha ice drink here! Thank you for going out of your way to making it even though It wasn't on the menu.
Great flavors!!
Best dessert shop! So many selections to choose from !! Satisfy that craving!! The owners are such amazing people!! MY GO TO PLACE !!
Go to dessert place in Byward Market. The Ferraro Rocher cake is the best!
Or zero. I wanted to order a cake for my son's birthday, as he requested one from this place. When I called, they said they couldn't take the order, so I had to email. Then a person emailed me back and I was told to make an email transfer first to a personal gmail account, then the order will be confirmed and placed. No other options. When I asked to pay with a credit card that would actually be proof of purchase as well, I simply never got a reply. I had to order a cake from somewhere else. Something is not right with this business... If you want the whole cakes they have, for almost half the price, check Dufflet.com where to buy. There are plenty of locations that you can order them from. That's what I did and now I am happy that they did not respond to me!
Amazing dessert place. The staff is so friendly, the vibe is very creative but also relaxed and the food and drink is very good as well. I came with my aunt on a visit and we had the tiramisu cake, London fog latte and hit chocolate. The drinks were good, but the cake was amazing. Very fresh, not too sweet and the cream used was to die for. It was so good we came back the next day to buy some slices and bring it back to Toronto. Like it was so good we were willing to take the chance of the cake not making it the 5 hour drive, just so we can eat it and home and give to our family Will definitely return
Best cake I've ever had. Highly recommend this place, and I highly recommend the carrot cake cheese cake. (In photo)
It's not called Oh so good for no reason.
Absolutely divine cakes!
This place has some sick tasting desserts. It's somewhat on the expensive side but once a 6 months I can see myself going there and challenging my immune system to fight developing diabetes after having one of their delicious desserts.
I love their cakes! And they have a huge variety
Lots of variety, and delicious
The vegan cake is the best!
Yum! The Ferrero Rocher cake will give you diabetes. Minus one star because crowded and noisy - I get the cake slices to go now.
Wonderful place for a date. Lovely cafe and cake place.
It used to be great, but it's gotten expensive for what you get.
Coffee was a little bit disappointing, but the dessert and iced drinks were wonderful
they didn't have a huge selection the night we most recently went but the lemon cake we got was absolutely delicious and the tea brand they use is excellent!
Very cozy and spacious place in the heart of downtown. Also it opens until late
Desserts are delicious, coffee is fresh and really good. No dairy alternatives for us lactose intolerant folk at the coffee bar. Fairly expensive for what it is but you get large portions at least.
Always good cakes and pies in a more gritty urban decors. A totally unpretentious place, except for the occasional hipster. Not fine dining, but great desserts.
Great tea and amazing art for sale. Always enjoy going here. ☕
Very good service on a busy Saturday afternoon! Their mocha and strawberry milkshake was decent.
Surrounded by booze...a very nice oasis of coffees and desserts.
Came in to get a latte Monday night and a super nice girl Sarah helped me out. Super friendly staff and super yummy drinks and deserts. It was my first time coming and she helped me pick out a dessert by telling me about each one. Very educated. Would recommend!
Nice desserts!
Treats are fresh and delicious. Always good to and coffee. A bit pricey but a treat for every now and again.
Great place for your sweet tooth, chill relaxed atmosphere, bohemian style. Perfect for an afternoon treat!
Great desserts.
Great place for a first date! Staff is nice and the place is quiet for pleasant conversation! Guaranteed a big success
What this place lacks in service, they make up for with quality cakes.
Expensive for what you're getting, but there is an excellent cake selection and the cake quality is good. The iced coffee was very good, though expensive at $4 for a smallish size. Better than Starbucks. Lots of seating, including outdoor seating. I would go back for more cake.
Yum! Very tasty cake and a good selection to choose from ????????
The cakes were above average but I must agree with others that the service was a little perfunctory. The decor is part of what makes this place different though. All in all, a good place to go for dessert when you get the urge!
Classic Americano finely orchestrated to deliver a distinct bitter flair. Pair it with a slice of the Chocolate Truffle—a rich ganache confection topped with ribbons of buttery cocoa sheets for a treat worth every penny.
I got to say really good desserts. Will go again for sure. Best dessert in this place.
Tasty desert great welcome by staff
Cakes are great
The triple chocolate fudge was so good I had to go back and grab a second slice!
The cakes are really over priced for the quality and size of slices you get. There are places that make their cakes fresh in house (Oh So Good doesn't) who charge similar or lower prices for much larger slices. On top of that, the staff here seem to hate their jobs and I've never felt welcomed by them any time that I've gone, AND I've had them mess up orders multiple times. Really just not worth it and I think they only survive because they're in a tourist heavy area but honestly better off going to the Rideau center and getting a cake from the vending machine there than you are getting cake here.
serving with disposable containers in Oh so good.. Awful
love desserts here
They have so many variety of cakes to choose from. I personally love their milkshake made from ice cream.
It is the best place in Ottawa and the staff who work there are so welcoming and kind! They suggest a colossal variety of cakes and pies! The taste of coffee is rich and u just always want come back there!
Great coffee, cakes and gelato!
oh so good? more like oh so so-so :/ It's fine, but my cake was dry and seemed like what I could get at a grocery store.
This place has a nice ambiance if you want to indulge on a rich piece of cake that is expensive and has extraordinary amount of calories! Other than that, there is nothing unique about this place. No welcoming staff, nothing great about their coffee, and mediocre service. Specially true if you are visiting Ottawa! If you are visiting Ottawa, there are tons of better places!
Great ambience. But honestly it's overhyped cake place. Their shakes and smoothies are good.
Good cakes, good size and great coffee.
Amazing desserts
Huge portions of desert and the space is huge so you never have to wait for a table.
This place is a must every time I come to Ottawa! Absolutely delicious selection of cakes! I think I've tried almost every one by now and have yet to be disappointed! Great and kind service. A must see, especially if you can snag a spot outside our by the window :)
Divine ice creams, cakes and coffee. Really good experience. Definitely recommend.
My friends and I always meet up here. Its a great place to just sit and relax with a cup of coffee or tea and slice of cake. It's the perfect place to study as well. The staff is super friendly too!
Cakes are always good. The ambience is not so great but dessert is oh so good!
The cake was awesome! Mid afternoon ambiance left a lot to be desired. The staffer was pleasant and kind but it felt like we had just missed a big rush and their mind was on what came next.
Excellent cheese cakes and a warm owner
They have so many different types of cakes and a large variety for those that are vegan and gluten free too. Nice decor and great location. One problem they had was that they have a garage door open so when we were there the smell of cigarettes wafted into the restaurant. It was particularly pungent but I can't blame the restaurant for that right?
Best cake ever!
Affordable cafe. With a nice selection of deserts.
Good selection. Great service.
Always the best deserts and good coffee
Good cakes and coffee. A little pricey for the overall quality.
The best ever. The owner is a free warrior as well. I love the dark roast coffee they make ????
You just cant go wrong with anything on the menu. Delicious!
One of the best cafés in Ottawa!!
Great food and dessert. It's unfortunate that it is next to a strip club. Lots of homeless people and strippers. Homeless often harass you on the patio in the summer time.
Amazing variety of desserts, cakes, pies and tarts. So good.
Good place but was under staffed when i was there.
Carrot cheesecake is aces. Always stop in for coffee and cake after downtown date nights.
Unassuming cafe with a grrreeeaaattt cake menu. Oh boy. I stood at the counter for almost 15 minutes before I could decide what I wanted.
The cakes, cookies, coffees and pies are aĺl delicious! The service, every time I have been has been excellent. Highly recommend!
A long favourite of ours! Our anniversary is on New Years Eve and every year we treat ourselves to Oh So Good cakes. Some recommendations would be the Oreo cake, blueberry cheesecake and anything coffee. If you get the blueberry cheesecake, sprinkle some cinnamon on top! You won’t regret it.
Tasty iced coffee.
Amazing desserts and great coffee!
Must say their desserts and coffee are delicious. It's with the price at the end of the night.
Best cakes in town !!!
Love the pink velvet and the hot chocolate with whipped cream
Worst carrot cake ever. Extremely dry and overpriced. Much smaller than expected and there was an anti mask protest that made us wait 20 minutes to pick up the prepaid cake. Wouldn't answer the phone and not one of the 50 people in the lineup wearing a mask except us! If we hadn't already paid for it we would have left..so because you had no respect for us...Karma....
I wish I could try everything ????
Nicest people working there. Felt safe and positive. Great desert selection and fresh yummy Gelato.
Yummy desserts! It's all great.
Amazing people , great desserts . SUPPORT SUPPORT SUPPORT P.s all the 1 star reviews are the people living in mamas basement scared to go outside . Don't listen to them :)
Quaint place for a nice dessert and outing with friends. Atmosphere can be loud at times, but the quality of food and drinks definitely make.up for it.
This place is absolutely amazing I chose the carrot cheesecake what a treat best dessert ever will be coming back for sure????
Always a great variety of beautiful and delicious cakes, which can be paired with in-house roasted coffee/ espresso. A slice of cake is about $7, and is if a good size. It always requires a little extra willpower to pack those last few bites away.
Iced maple cappuccino! Awesome.
Good coffee, and interesting looking desserts. The only reason they don't get 5 is because the seating isn't the greatest in the world, and their staff seemed more concerned about discussing MidTerms than helping us choose a cake. Other than that, great! :)
I’ve been to this place twice. Never again. Both times the desserts were cheap industrial-tasting sugar-filled garbage that might be ok for kids desserts. I can get better cakes at the local grocery store. I gave 2 stars only because the coffee was great.
Millionaire Cake is the best I ever had and this place offers that delicious peace of treasure
Nice desserts, though I felt the lattes took overly long.
A nice place with delicious food offerings. The food is really delicious. The staff is very pleasant. The service is great too.
Great cakes but definitely over priced
Always a large selection to choose from and everything is fresh and OH SO GOOD!!
Very nice atmosphere , very sweet cakes , nothing else .... Could use a touch of diversity
Coffee and desserts are fine but i don't like the decoration. You can not feel comfortable or warm
Lot of choices of different kinds of cakes. All very good. Too much to chews so I asked pick one for me. Red velvet. Then I saw the gelato, next vist.
The atmosphere is amazing. I like it being there. Actually i like sweets a lot. So, it's perfect for me. Their deserts are delicious.
The white chocolate mousse cake was alright. They were out of vanilla ice cream so they replaced it with mango milkshake which was very sub-par. Staff were friendly but the desserts are not “oh so good”.
Decent selection of desserts, but could be better. Friendly staff though and I enjoy the concept of getting my own water whenever I want.
Great service, great ambience with the perfect food. One of the best places to go to in the market.
Everything here is amazing.
Cakes are not made fresh on-site but rather shipped in frozen. Cheesecake is lacklustre at best. Drinks are the same price as Starbucks or Second Cup but half the size.
Love this restaurant for their cheesecakes and cappuccino. Nice spot to meet up with a friend or to go on a date.
Oh So Good? Yes! Yes! Yes! A staple in the Market for ever. Cheesecake, chocolate cake and lots in-between.... There's a reason why is called Oh So Good... Just go. You won't be disappointed.
Yum! Great Desserts
Good latte, good gringer cookie, and friendly staff. The pay machine was ok the frits, but they were very reasonable about how they handled it.
Loved the cakes! Great place.
A nice quiet cafe, delicious looking cakes. They even had a chocolate vegan cake option. A great place to study as it is quiet and warm. Went on a Friday evening and it wasn't too busy at all.
Baclava cheesecake ... Superb!
Oh so good is a very cozy place. I had there lemon coconut cake with peppermint tea. It was definitely a perfect way to end the night.
The place offers a wide range of desserts which are amazing. Staff is super friendly, coffee is great. Prices are reasonable, the place looks good. A classic of the Byward Market, definitely worth trying.
Great deserts. Lots of choice and coffee also
I came here with a friend for dessert as it was my birthday. I had the Red Velvet Cake alongside a Mango flavoured Italian Soda. The soda was very delightful and was light and very bubbly. The syrup they used didn't taste artifical and had a very realistic flavour. The cake was moist but dense, which is wonderful for the red velvet cake. The staff was super polite but the business was very packed an busy. It was hard to find a spot to sit and this was on a Saturday night after 10pm. Word of warning for those coming in, they only have one bathroom. With that being said though, hey sure did clean it a lot which was nice to see.
Sarap! Cheesecake the best
I don’t think I need to explain after today
Decent cake and coffee for a high price. ($12 for a slice with a black Americano coffee). They have just one vegan cake (chocolate) which tastes pretty good, though would love to see more options become available as I'm more a vanilla and citrus fan. Worth it if you come with a friend for an epic chat session.
All the deserts somehow taste the same which sounds weird. Nothing is great. It's all just "ok". I've tried at least 4 different things and have always been underwhelmed. Just my opinion. Other people might love it.
My favourite place for dessert in Ottawa!
Low selection and pricey for what you get.
The cake is so delicious here! They have so many great choices. I'd definitely come here again so I can try more! And they're open at 11am now, so more time for cake!!
Hands down the best cake shop I have been to thus far
I can still taste the cake! Pure bliss.
Best place for deserts and coffee in ottawa.
Cozy place with great desserts! Usually has more ambient music playing but wasn't when I visited. Still tasty treats :)
Prices increased and quality severely decreased. Cakes do not taste fresh anymore. I thought this was just a fluke, so I went again and was severely disappointed by the cakes I bought. Friendly staff as always. Too bad the food isn’t worth it anymore...
I didn't like the cherry cheesecake or white hot chocolate. It really just tasted like hot milk. The cherry cheesecake was meh. Should have taken the hint since there was a whole cake there. Should have taken a piece from a cake with a lot of missing pieces! The cake looked good but I didn't enjoy it.
Ordered a full Black Forest cake for $60, and I was expecting a cake 2/3 that size(aka it was much larger than I expected!) It’s a very generous portion of individual cake, great for sharing, and already split and ready to serve! Also, wow it was absolutely delicious. Definitely worth trusting them with all things cake!
The absolute best. One of our favorite places to visit ❤️
Nice cozy place. Great selection of cakes
You can't go wrong with this place, been going there for years. Great place to sit down and talk with people.
A cozy coffeeshop in an old building with modren paintings on the walls, not to forget how delicious the cake and coffee are! - NO table service, which could be nice to be offered.
Great selection of cakes! So good!!!!
The matches late was expensive and basically 25 cents of frothed milk with a sprinkle of matches....a burned 5$.
Great coffee, cakes, and pies. Tried their cheesecake, apple crumble, and dolce de leche cake. All tasted amazing and fresh, slightly overpriced though.
So many desserts - amazing quality, great service, I will definitely come back. It's pricey, but you get what you pay for. Sooo goood
Delicious dessert cafe with lots of indoor seating. Wide variety of delicious cakes & cheesecakes made by Toronto's Dufflet's. So yummy. Excellent coffee & wide offering of other drinks to accompany the desserts. Also have many gelato flavours for cone or cup sizes. Quite busy in the evening but lots of seating at the back. Located in the Byward Market area so convenient for tourists and students.
This place lives up to it’s namesake!
Unreal deserts everytime
Best vegan chocolate
Always amazing dessert choices and the staff are lovely!
The team here is incredibly polite, cheery and always have a bright smile!
So good!
Great location for date night or a coffee and card games hangout. Very tasty pastries, with vegan options, and freshly roasted coffees. The summer opens up the outdoor sheeting, which ties the location into the market well. Definitely a must for cake lovers.
When I saw this spot for the first time I was so happy. There were many kinds of delicious looking cakes. I wanted to give it a try. I got the one with Ferrero rocher and lemon parfait. The quality of the cakes are not good. I couldn't even eat more than 3 bites. I don't really recommend if you are picky.
This is one of my favorite places in Ottawa. One of my best random finds. The lemon cake was incredible.
Great staff, great selection of cakes and teas. They even have some options for people with various dietary restrictions.
Was good experience. Not plenty of choices. Taste is good.
Sooooo many different cakes! They have options for everyone. My step-mom needed a gluten & egg free cake and they had something for her. The portions are extremely generous and the atmosphere is very cool.
Great atmosphere and huge selection of desserts and different types of specialty coffees. Awesome location
Amazing customer service, great selection of cakes and pies. Highly recommend Oh So Good.
I loved my dinner here! It truly lived up to the online reviews -- the generous patties made o daily of chuck really elevates the burger game! I also indulged and upgraded my side to poutine -- delicious gravy and a healthy sprinkling of curds made it a wise $3 investment. Shout out to Laura -- gregarious and enthusiastic -- she really added to our experience.
Awesome kind staff ! And the cakes... oh...oh so so good !
I had such a positive experience the first time I went on Sunday, that I've been three times this week. The cake is delicious, and there are gluten-free options. Also, the serving sizes are generous so save room or bring a friend who shares well! Their bowls of café au lait are large, and they have unsweetened almond milk! The service was great, too!
Good selection, fresh and moist. I highly recommend it if you have a sweet tooth.
If you like chocolate try the chocolate bomb cake. It's like a mousse chocolate. My caramel latte was also pretty good. Love the smell when they were grinding beans while we were there. You could smell the freshness.
The desserts here are amazing, rich and delicious. Nothing much else to say about them. Pair that with one of their cups of coffee or a latte and you are all set. The atmosphere is also very beautiful, it serves as an excellent coffee and dessert house in the heart of ottawa. I'd definitely recommend.
Lovely place. Great service. Excellent staff. Fantastic food. Highly recommend. ????
Not much of a place but seems popular. Cheese cakes are good.
Best cake in Ottawa! So many different choices and options. Huge location, lots of seating.
So many different delicious cake options! I’ve never had a bad time here. Last time I tried the blueberry velvet and it was amazing. The slices are huge so I often just get one to share. They also have a lot of drink (coffee/tea) options. An ideal spot for friends or a casual date!
Yep very good Carrot cake or the triple chocolate cake. Great spot to meet friends for coffee and dessert.
Great place this is my go to, great service and an amazing selection of cakes and deserts ! Oh and the music is very good.
A place that specializes in Puddings and Coffee Cakes are displayed in s chiller cabinet for viewing. You go to the till and lkace your order and pay. After a short wait your order us called out and you collect from the counter. There were a dozen or so items to choose froom. One step up from street level.
Is just all oh sooo good, love it!
Delicious and massive pieces of cake
Let's just say 8$ for a piece. 14 pieces per cake. The cake is now worth 112$. So if it cost 10$ to produce, they are making 1020% of profit and that is ridiculous.
Not so good. The cake was really dry. Sorry..
Went there from Montréal. Prices are a bit high. Cappuccino, marble cheesecake slice, hot chocolate and a red velvet cake slice for 30$. However it's worth every penny. Atmosphere is nice amd cozy. Paintings on the walls are very much interesting. Staff very friendly too. One of the best experiences I've ever had in a coffee/dessert place. Totally recommand
Good desert and great price/quality. Great London fog. Good coffee ☕
Absolutely a slice of heaven!
Delicious pieces of cake. Tons of cake to choose from. Open front style cafe.
Good coffee and food, location and maintenance could be a little better
AMAZING everything . So yummy!!! Highly recommend ????????????
They have so many variety of cakes! They are Dufflet cakes. They also had gluten free, dairy free options which my friend really enjoyed. The carrot cake which was gluten free and dairy free was so creamy and moist! I had the chocolate truffle cake which was very decadent but not overly sweet. However, It was 9$ for one slice!!! Just for comparison, Dufflet, the company that makes the cakes sell the whole 9" cake for $47....
Good desserts but expensive
Lovely cheesecakes. V good selection of teas. Friendly staff.
Interior design was sloppy looking but the selection and quality of desserts were great.
Got a Cortado here today and it is Probably the best cortado I ve had!! ???? It looks really cozy inside as well but unfortunately the lockdown doesn’t allow dine-in. Sincerely hope you guys can get through this tough covid situation ♥️ Will visit again soon ????
Good view, great vegan chocolate cake, for the lactose intolerant, yet the coffee offering were subpar.
Delicious desserts and drinks. I got a slice of cake and a London fog and it was lovely. There’s lots of seating including a patio in the warmer months. The staff is incredibly friendly as well.
Love the variety of things to choose. Price a bit high but the quality out does the prices
Apple caramel cheesecake & seasonal peppermint mocha rated highly and lived up to expectations; service excellent and cheerful.
Great food and coffee. I am disappointed that they took the sun down though that was iconic.
Definitely the best cafe in Ottawa and the Byward Market. Their espresso is a smooth blend and they have an amazing dessert selection. I would highly recommend this cafe to anyone.
White chocolate mousse!? My best!
We stopped in for coffee and a treat. Friendly service and the Baklava cheesecake was awesome. My fiance is a chocolate lover and really enjoyed the gluten free chocolate mousse. They don't have have cold brew coffee so I iced coffee. It was okay but I'm a cold brew fan. I would have given 5 stars if they had a good cold brew. I'll be back for the sweet treats but I'll get my cold brew elsewhere.
Great choice of desserts. Quite tasty. Nice little ambient place near Ottawa sign.
Amazing cakes. If only you could try them all!
I really enjoyed it and the location is nice and hip. Enjoyed the seating and the design of the place. The staff were also very friendly.
Oh. so. Amazing. Yummmmmmmy
Always great place for a dessert :)
Heavy desert, still delicious :) perfect for sharing !
I swear there's drugs in the cakes. I could come back every day.
Might be a little bias because I had my first date with the love of my life here. The coffee is good and I love the selection of cakes.
The cake is amazing. The artwork on the walls is too creepy today. It's local so it may change every once in a while, but it keeps me from giving it 5 stars. The cake is the most incredible you'll get around. Caramel pecan cheesecake and white chocolate mousse cake = amazing!!
What a great dessert place. A great variety of fresh cakes... always!
Slightly over priced but well worth it. Amazing desserts and very nice helpfup staff. So good!
If you love cake.... GO
This is one lively place (even when considering how COVID 19 has impacted our lives). Very colorful and offers exciting desserts mirroring Palestinian influenced options. Having said that we found the Baklawa overwhelmingly sweet. The Black Forest pastry was better.
Best cheesecake in town hands down! I always stop here when I go downtown, and I always receive great service! I recommend this place to anyone visiting Ottawa for the first time, or anyone in need of satisfying their sweet tooth.
Great service, amazing food, always friendly staff, and interesting art that rotates often!
Interesting art on the wall and many options for delicious cakes.
Awesome coffee, amazing desserts, service with a smile
Best place for cake. But there is one problem... choosing which cake you want to eat... so many choice.
The best date spot to take your partner or your friends for some coffee or tea & dessert. Super friendly and accommodating staff, good quality cakes & very cozy environment!
I love it, it is delicious place for Desserts.
Lots of cakes
Loved the menu and the dessert is delicious
Great desserts, great service, great place to meet.
Very delicious desserts and a good selection of hot and cold beverages
Delicious cakes
Ordered/payed a 60$ cheesecake 5 days in advance to have it for my girlfriends birthday on her special day. When asked to come to the store for pick up had the great surprise that they have given my cake to someone else during the day. Now Im empty handed, 60$ less in my bank and a sad girlfriend. Really really disappointed in the service and how they handled my situation. Only thing said was “im sorry” “we’ll refund you soon”. Even McDonalds give you a consolation price when its THEIR fault. Anyways, as a regular Oh So Good client, I really think I should let you know the poor experience I had today.
This is a great place to grab a hot beverage along with a slice of cake. It is conveniently located close to uOttawa so it's great for meeting other students to study. It's also close to Major's Hill Park if you want to go for a walk after.
Oh so Good is oh so Great!! Stopped in for a treat after a good walk. Friendly faces and yummy goods! Coffee's good too.
Great casual dessert place, good place to go to for a quick bite or for casual conversations with friends. Always a wide variety of desserts, it's overwhelming in a good way. A must stop-by!!
Best dessert place I encountered for cakes and milkshakes! :)
I love deserts a lot. Specially after dinner, I must have it. And this place is a real charm for me. Amazing deserts . Served in a quick time. Tasty & delicious.
Lots of great cakes, check those out before you get ice cream. Chocolate and the lemon flavours are the best gelato ones they have. Place is open and artsy, friendly service.
Very photographic back room, perfect for insta snaps. Cool and friendly staff who will serve you sweet treats and hot drinks!!!
Yes it’s a bit expensive but their slice portions are massive and their Ferrero rocher cakes are THE BOMB.
Great service and amazing deserts. Thank you for not discriminating and respecting mask exemptions.
Great coffee! We had two different kinds of cake one being gluten free and we found that both were extremely sweet to an unpleasant point. We could not finish our pieces. They can definitely ease off on the sugar and improve on flavour.
Amazing cake!
This small cafe serves mostly coffee and dessert. The staff is friendly and the service is good. My cheesecake was not very fresh and tasted bland.
White hot chocolates were amazing. Friendly staff and a great environment. Overall I was really impressed ????
Fresh, beautiful and delicious cakes! Very artsy atmosphere too!
I had the best birthday desert ever!
unique setting is both gothic and romantic. cakes are fabulous, staff is lovely.
Great fun but man is it expensive. Fun for a date night or treat
Never missed to visit "Oh So Good" every time when we visited Ottawa. It was so good..! ????
Just serves Dufflet cakes...nothing special
The chocolate mousse was delicious, but they have a lot of options, even for vegans.
Amazing food and service great place to go and have some tasty desserts
Cakes are amazing! I love all of them. Portions are huge. Even I always bring a box for home. I highly recommend for the people whose loves cake!
Oh so goods new acai bowls r bussin!! Expensive but worth it! Perfectly cool on this warm day, the acai is like sorbet, the granola yum, the cut up fruit n Nutella drizzle n coconut shreds: all excellent! The worker made it really quick for me as I stated I was in a rush but it was still beautiful n deeelicious! Wanna take my cubs there for one! N while I'm at it I love their raspberry Charlotte cake, cheesecakes, Italian sodas n good, friendly, efficient service always!!
Efficient and hard working staff behind the counter. Desserts are very good, really sweet and of course their coffee is top! Great little place...
Their cheesecake is really average, blueberries on top tasted awful.
I thought the food wasn't very good. The hot chocolate was little more than hot milk with a bit of flavor, and the cake was dry and not ritch enough, especially for something with "fudge" in the name. The price was higher than it should have been considering the quality, and all this made me a bit disappointed in this establishment. I guess if you just need a dessert and hot drink and don't mind paying over $10 this place is fine, but honestly you'd probably have better quality making it at home.
I had good experiences at this place previously but I went back today and I wasn't impressed with the portion size for the cake. I used to be unable to finish the slices, but this time they were very small and I crushed it - for $9 a slice I'd expect more. I would give it 2 stars except I wanted to be fair given the previous better experiences I had. Not sure I'll be back though...
Always a treat! The staff are great and the cakes are always delicious! If you have a sweet tooth this is your place!
Certainly aptly named! The portions are massive, but I would hope they would be as it's pricey. WORTH IT! Cozy atmosphere as well.
Soooo cute and the food is delicious. No parking.
Been coming here since it opened in 94. Always had amazing cakes, but now they also roast their own coffee beans and serve gelato as well. Gluten free options available, plus they have a revolving collection of local art adorning thr walls, to be appreciated and purchased!
I love their cakes. Best place for cakes that I have ever been to.. Love it
Was suggested this place for a good cake place and it lived up to the expectations. Pretty filling so I probably would've shared one but both were delicious. The staff was really helpful
I was really impressed with the amazing selection of cakes! Very hospitable and warm environment. I kinda wish they had more pie selections but still good desserts overall.
Hosted an anti-mask gathering.
Good selection of cakes by the slice.
Loved the blueberry cheesecake
Great place,yummy desserts.Highly recommend!
I had this sort of chocolately fudge cheese cake, it was rich and delicious! around $10 for the slice but it was big enough to share
Best desserts
The cakes here are *oh so good*. I can never decide what I want!
Good cakes, some lacking the freshness. It's now lacking the originality it once had. A tad pricey. Friendly staff
Better than average dessert house.
The coffee smells amazing! Great atmosphere. The cake slices are very big and match the price, though I usually find them way too sweet. A good place to share some dessert.
Great service, great cheesecake! My gf piece was too big she said ????
Great dessert options, especially as I'm an omnivore and my wife is vegan. Friendly staff. Frequented both the Byward Market location and the Richmond Road location. Only downside, a little on the pricey side - our usual order is an Italian soda, a soy latte and deserts - usually around $25.
Mouthwatering baked goods
Nice staff and good food
Delicious coffee and desserts.
Looking forward to visiting for quite some time. Expectations not met. A very processed taste to their desserts. Cheesecake with strawberry topping tastes quite artificial - which considering the price, is very disappointing. Coffee was too strong with a very bitter aftertaste. Staff is quite young and somewhat disinterested. This is a cozy spot, however the air is heavy and not at all fresh. We did not finish our coffees - see photo. A bit of shame. Neat ambiance though. Love all of the artwork on the walls, local artists and for sale. Question - why is there not one single sugar-free dessert option? #localguide
Cozy corner of the market to grab delicious desserts!
Great place with lots of space for groups and a divine selection of desserts, including vegan and (I believe) gluten free.
Great cakes, but for $9!?
Not up to par as it use to be. I find the desserts not as Oh So Good anymore.
Very nice nice staff. I got a machiato and it was absolutely delicious
Cake and coffee? Or, coffee cake? How about a coffee cake coffee cake with a coffee? All possible possibilities, possibly, if they have coffee cake. But, definitely get down on their cake, and coffee.
We had chocolate cupcake and pumpkin pie. It was a bit pricey, but very delicious, especially the pumpkin pie.
Best Cake in Ottawa ! The art, the people, the staff, the theme of the cafe - it’s just all superb.
Usually enjoy this local business. Ok baked goods and indifferent staff but it was fine. However, disappointed to learn they supported an anti mask rally that chased other local vendors away. Note many of these new five stars reviews are from antimask demonstrators who were thrilled to be served indoors unmasked exposing many others. (Very questionable if this business followed Covid guidelines before this btw) We will not be returning to support this business. Disappointing.
Excellent service and deserts on Canada day
Oh my god is it ever good but it's a little pricey
Great selection of cakes.
Got the rolled lemon blueberry cheesecake ice cream. Loved the attention to detail, saw how they smashed some blueberries, added cream and rolled all carefully with a blueberry added on top of each roll. Added whipped cream.
Delish
The selection here is top notch. The Vegan Chocolate cake is a very appreciated option and probably the best deal here to choose from considering the quality you are getting with the special ingredients.
A great place for both tourists and residents alike, Oh So Good is in the bustling byward market. It has a very nice feel to it and is a personal favorite when I have a sweet tooth. The staff and owner are very nice and always greets you …
What better place to have coffee and a treat!! Their London fog drink is to die for. The cakes and pies are amazing. Nothing negative except for regular customers, their desserts don't rotate. Nothing wrong with full proof classics though. Always wondered why they didn't venture into making their own tough.
Awesome place,great goodies.....:-)
Cake is love, cake is life.
I love cheesecakes and I’ve tried quite a fair share, and this place does it right! So many flavours to choose from! They have quite the selection of drinks to pair with lots of desserts too!
The matcha green tea tiramisu is gooooood.
The cost of a slice of cake (~$9) is asking a lot considering they're not made fresh on-site, but rather shipped in frozen from nearby cities. Nevertheless, they're moderately enjoyable desserts. Skip the coffee.
Great assortment of cakes. Coffee was good too
Nice desserts, but not always fresh.
Wonderful service they respect mask exemptions which is 10/10 and their food is well priced and tasty.
Very good desert, the price is really fair for the location.
Great staff. Great cakes.
Really delicious desserts. My favorite is the carrot cake cheesecake. Best thing to do when you're there is to get a warm drink, it pairs perfectly with a slice of cold cake!
A really nice place. Calm and low lighting. Employees were very welcoming and polite. The cakes were soooooo good. The washroom was clean. And I could charge my phone when sitting down which was nice.
Amazing vegan chocolate cake slices
A little pricy, latte wasn't great, desserts were ok.
A great place. The place is amazing. The food is really good. The deserts are awesome. A good atmosphere. Neat & clean place. The staff is nice.
Good pastries but less option with ice cream based deserts.
Excellent dessert
The cake is soooo bland and flavorless. They look amazing but taste wise it literally tastes like eating water... and I got 4 pieces of different types. :( sooooooo bland, it's crazy. And for the price? $40 for 4 pieces. Was really expecting something good but the cake here has ZERO, please hear me, ZERO taste. Walmart cakes are so much better than this and for like $14 for a whole cake ???????????? hard lesson learned...
Waaaw get the cheesecake for sure . Itried 4 cakes cheescake is stellar . Soooooooo gooood
Heaven! Coffee and a slice of cake. My goodness, went here once and will come back for more!!
Awesome Desserts excellent atmosphere to relax have a piece of homemade desserts
Enjoy an espresso, café latté, chai latté or shake in this nice little coffee and dessert spot. Close to the ByWard Market, it has an awesome cake selection...The carrot cake is sublime!
Amazing!!
Great dessert and smoothies and good service.
This is one of my favourite desert places in Ottawa. But I have noticed they have cut the portion sizes by half. Very disapointing as it is now what I consider to be expensive for a thin slice of cake, $8 a shot each.
I LOVE their caramel carrot cheesecake, I ordered it three days in a row after tasting it for the first time. The other cakes are also good but nothing beat the carrot cheesecake for me. Their cheesecakes are super light and fresh. The ambiance is casual: good for hangouts, and dates
The cakes are delicious but over priced.
This is my first time going to Oh so good I asked for a large and gave me a small but he then fixed his mistake at no charge which I appreciated. However the cost for a small chai tea latte is a little on the extreme side at just under five dollars when that’s how much it cost me for a large anywhere else. Also I’m unimpressed with the chai tea latte itself maybe next time a little more tea a little less froth I feel like I’m drinking frothy milk with a hint of chai it’s really disappointing
Listen the cakes are great the coffee was good but service was a bit lacking on a Saturday afternoon super sunny. There were 2 employees working one was very friendly the other didn't say a word the entire time we were there. Yes I'll go back but not sure if I would recommend
Sad looking cakes. The standards have definitely dropped. Cakes portions are much smaller and they are not as delicious as I remember them to be, especially when a slice comes to about ten a piece. The place has been spruced up and the inside made alot brighter but this does nothing for me if this is the best they can do for desserts.
Missing the tiramisu there. A happening place.
I would give zero stars if I coud. First of all, as soon as me and my friend walked this this coffee shop the employees were giving us dirty looks and whispering things to each other. However, we decided to stay and study since we already travelled far to get here. We decided to order two hot drinks and they came out very bitter and not what we asked for. Considering the fact that we didn't like it we didn't want to cause anything so we just decided it was best for us not to complain. Hours go by, one of the workers comes back and whispers to another employee that theres no laptops authorized after 5. We were very confused because we were studying there for 2 hours and suddenly were not able to use out laptops? Very odd. Anyways, this place needs to really train their employees the right way to speak to customers because that was unacceptable and very uncomfortable.
So much beautiful sweets. The magical cake and wonderful coffee.
Had the coconut cream pie and it was just like grandma's! Delicious.
Absolutely no service. Girls walked past my family many times not even saying a word. Stood there for 10mins and NOTHING didn't even speak to you. We walked out.
Cakes are not worth the price. The service is lousy.
Love it!
Very nice place. You can't just walk by, you have to go in and treat yourself.
The desserts are tasty and you get a fair portion but I felt that they were a bit over priced.
We came here after strolling the ByMarket at night after dinner. LOVED the variety of cakes on display to choose from. I got the Ferraro Roche Chocolate Cake and my boyfriend got the Chocolate Bomb cake. Both were great, and the size of slice was bigger than I had expected. However, both of us preferred my Ferraro to his Chocolate Bomb slice. Was slightly disappointed to find out the cakes are ordered and not made in house, but this is a minor detail. Was glad to find a place open to late on a week night that had a great selection of desserts and hot drinks.
Great spot to grab dessert and coffee. The cakes are incredible and coffee is great too.
Tasty and fresh vegan chocolate cake slices. They are a bit pricey at $8. The service was great and fast as well.
Fabulous desserts and very welcoming staff who honour mask exemptions and do not discriminate. We need more businesses like this. Thank you
Lesson learned. I ordered a cake from them for my daughter’s 18th birthday. Paid $60 and all I got as proof was my Interact receipt. In the end they made the wrong cake my daughter doesn’t like chocolate they got paid and I’m S.O.L. If you are looking for customer service you are in the wrong place.
Tasty brownie cheescake. Just the right amount of sweetness. The waiter/cashier was so nice as well.
Come here to eat cakes with friends. It's one the best spots in Byward Market for desserts and coffee.
I think it is overrated. Good coffee though, cakes ok but slice doesn’t meet the price. One staff tries to do all work, queue may be too long.
Like the name says good place for desert and coffee
Really cannot describe this place without saying it is "Oh so good!" Amazed by the variety- great for those who avoid gluten!
Decadent cakes and excellent coffee.
Always amazing service and great food
If you are into massive pieces of cake that will fill you to the point where you don't know if you wanted this anymore, its your place.
Amazing business! Amazing service! Amazing food! Great humans!
Had a hair in my cheesecake.... Yikes
Their Chai Tea Lattes are excellent. I was pleasantly surprised that they offer a few gluten free cake options.
I swung by this location on a few occasions. For the price of the slices of cake it does not live up to the quality. I ordered a cheese cake slice and the server lost a third of my cheese cake when he was cutting and packaging. I saw him throw something away but figured he would grab me a fresh slice if he messed up cutting. I got home and saw 2/3 of cheese cake in a box that cost me nearly $10.00. Another thing that they can work on is there packing. When you do take out from Oh So Good 9 times out of 10 your cakes are crushed or falling apart by the time you get home. The cakes them selves taste decent but not worth the price based on quality.
Very good coffee and pies
Terrible coffee and way overpriced. Either I was ripped off or the cashier charged me the wrong price. I paid $17 for an iced latte and a hot latte, both medium sized. I wouldn’t mind paying that much if the coffee was actually great though.
Good variety of deserts.
Excellent little dessert cafe with good coffee and tea. Expensive, but what in the Byward isn't? Good cheesecakes and nice staff.
Oh so good always makes you feel welcome and has such delicious drinks! Very kind staff. Thank you Oh So Good!
Very tasty! Pricy for a slice of cake but, you'll definitely leave with a satisfied sweet tooth! Would definitely go back to try more cakes!!
Toppee moose in there great coffee aswell canni complain at all pal recommend it
It was my first time at this cafe and the employees were the most unwelcoming. Very rude and unpleasant. It was almost like they were annoyed of me and my friend’s presence there. I ask for a cup a water and they gave me 2 bottles of water instead to purchase. I can only get water in a CAFE if I purchase it now? Won’t be going back for sure
Very nice place to spend your Friday evening. Location of this store is great! There is a wide variety of delicious cakes. Coffee is also good! Perfect for groups! Highly recommend.
I don't like some of the art and it's a little bit dark, but it's still a unique dessert place. It's right beside a gentleman's club though so that makes it less family-friendly.
Good desert but highly overpriced
Not a fan of there cakes. The staff were nice
A bit on the pricey side, but delicious nonetheless
They gave me a damaged cake on Xmas eve. I did not expect such unprofessional service from this shop which supposedly have high standards. They charged 60 dollars for this pc of cake. When called, there was no response and then I also left an email and still no response. I have purchased cakes from them since 2011 but it stops now. They have lost a loyal customer. They should be ashamed of their services, stealing money and not delivering. ZERO STARS! Please do a favour to all humanity, improve your service for God sake!
Friendly staff usually good cakes
Went on a week night for tea and dessert, got the lemon parfait cake and the ferrero rocher cake. Both were delicious! Its self service and the staff is friendly, they have free WiFi and great murals.
Fantastic dessert! So many awesome choices.
Real nice place for a date
Went last Saturday evening...Good cake! Staff and service could be much friendlier and better. What struck me the most is that, while every single business is trying stop covid-19 with simple things. I haven't seen NOTHING NOTHING from their part to prevent it. NO HAND SANITIZER, they serve your cake and you wait in line WITH your cake next to everyone and you have so drop your plate and fork on the cash counter, were everyone leans to pay them. NO RECEIPT was given after I paid. And MOST table do not respect social distancing rules. Not to mention that tables are not necessarily washed after someone has used it. I'm not really picky cause most businesses try their best, but close to NOTHING was done in this case. Not mention that god forbid you get thirsty and want a glass of water. NOT going to happen. Only bottled water are served. No prices for desserts are marked on menu behinds cashes. I find it's a lot of things lined up for us to say we had a good experience.
Variety of deserts in good portion sizes. And ice cream, gelato. Good location.
Noisy in the back. Cold in the front. Great coffee, Earl Gray tea and delicious cake and other backed treats. Classically casual. Ok process.
The art and interior decorating really adds to how cool of a coffee/dessert place this is. The cakes are to die for!
Super cozy with lots of seating friendly staff and deelliicciioouussss cakes I got the Ferrero Rocher cake 10/10 would get again
Shame
Very tasty cakes you must visit
Amazing desserts and lattes!
Service good, but chef needs to learn how to make a proper Tiramasu. Have been here before and was disappointed with the quality of the cakes for the price.
Just wow. The cake is superb.
Its really hard to choose but the staff was nice enough to help! Need to come back and try them all!
Can’t go wrong with this place. Love their Black Forest cake and drinks are delicious!
They had a lot of cakes. Slices are very big. Service is very fast. It is a nice place to have a desert after your dinner.
Do not eat here if you don't want to get sick. We ordered our cake. They were busy; however there was not excuse for what happened. The cashier was handling the money with her hands and plated the cake without washing her hands. She also had long acrylic nails that were digging into the cake icing (no gloves!). Very unprofessional!. We pointed out to her that this was very poor food handling. As customers, we should not have to educate the staff on how to properly handle food. We will never go there again and urge people to be very careful and even avoid this establishment all together.
Old school classic and delish
Cakes not made by them, nor locally. No clear signage or labels on various cakes when I went. When I asked to be run through the cakes verbally, staff was visibly annoyed and told me to narrow down my choice just by looking at them instead. When asked again, he called on another staff and commended him to do the task, following which, he marched away from assisting us. This staff member was also not wearing a mask the entire time, while the other staff member who finished helping us, was following all COVID procedures, including the use of a mask. 2 starts earned for the decent cake and the second staff member who was lovely 3 stars lost for the 1) customer service experience, 2) lack of customer experience planning [clear labels, accessibility etc], and 3) not following community safety guidelines
Truly delicious cakes and pies, good environment, but the place is getting to be a bit older. Not to say it was run down, but it's not as shiny and new like it once was. As an example, the door for the men's washroom was removed. Not sure why. Maybe to dissuade vandalism or homeless people from sleeping in there.... Again, I'm not sure, but I did find it a bit odd. In any case, you're not coming here for the bathroom, you're coming here to willingly take several steps closer to having delicious diabetes, and so far, I have not been disappointed (unlike my doctor).
I have always loved Oh So Good and have recommended it a lot of my friends, but what started out as a great service is now subpar. It's taking them a week to deliver a cake without any communication until I have to follow up.
Very good dessert. ✊????✌????
Everything about this place is great from the fantastic desserts, to the delicious coffee and comfy seats. All tucked away in a nice little spot.
Amazing! Worth the visit!
Cakes and iced Americano is my go to here!
I don't get it. Seems very average with little charm.
Tourists trap!!!. Stay away. $45 for 3 pieces of dry, previously frozen cake and 3 bitter coffees. How can anyone give this place 5 stars . Wow, what a disappointment.
Great selection of cakes and the slices they give are huge. Good location, workers are nice and things are reasonably priced.
Come here for a slice of good cake.
The drinks are hit or miss sometimes
Delicious as always!
An Ottawa staple. The perfect place for a date, or just friends to get together.
A must visit. Right in between downtown. Delicious food.
You need to try the chocolate truffle cake
Delicious desserts at reasonable prices.
Good desserts but way over priced for what you get.
amazing spot!
Great place!
Pricey, wide selection of cakes, decent atmosphere.
Always good for after hour lunch. Great dessert.
Incredible place that is for humanity.
Kind, friendly service with delicious cakes. Prices are kind of high though.
Omg! The desserts are the bomb. I had the pumpkin pie cheese cake and it was delicious. I wish I took a picture to share. Will definately be going back for more.
Good desserts, with a range of cakes that you can choose. A good little spot to sit down and relax with a coffee or take a date too
The cakes and desserts are very good with a lot of variety. I have been coming here for a few years and the service is normally fine, but yesterday when I went for coffee and a slice of cake I had asked for a glass of water. They told me that I needed to purchase a bottle of water and were very rude with the interaction. I understand that they may not provide tap water through the pandemic like they had before but I did not appreciate the rude service.
Great cake, cute atmosphere and great market location. Open pretty late for a nice cake snack!
Owner, staff and food are amazing!!!
Lots of cakes and squares to choose from
What an awesome desert spot in the heart of ottawa! I loved my cherry cheeze cake and my partner also loved his chocolat cake! I tried the gellato but was not super impressed! I would say save your apetite for the amazing cake selection!! ♡
Great coffee desserts and service. Cool spot!
Chocolate banana bread cake was amazing! Only complaint was the wait in line to order but understanding it was a Monday evening and there was only one staff member to run the whole place. I will go back and try the other cakes soon!
2 stars for the house roasted their own coffee which is good. But the cake there does not match the price they are selling at all. Not worth at all! Pretty sure the cakes were frozen and shipped from somewhere.
My desert was meh. Pretty dry, icing sugar taste in fudge topping. Others in group were more happy, but of 8, 3 did not finish.
Cakes, cakes, cakes! All varieties and they taste awesome. Bit pricey for the piece but they are a good size and yummy. Ice-cream flavors are great. I had tiramisu and pistachio. Good assortment of teas and coffee. Hot and cold. These are not amazing but will do the job well. I love the layout. Way bigger establishment than we expected. Beautiful artwork on the walls and cool atmosphere.
Best desserts in O-town!
They sell okay cake, their service is also fine. However, for a store that specializes in cake I’m disappointed in the quality and freshness of their dessert. Edit: the last few times their cakes have tasted really bad. Very disappointing cake and worse Covid protocols.
Very homey nice place. The employees are very welcoming and the drinks were amazing. 10/10 recommend ????????
Super tasty cakes, but it is a bit expensive.
The cheesecake is good but I believe it's frozen. The strawberries were so hard to cut and it hard to chew too... I thought it was all fresh but I guess I was mistaken
Great selection of desserts. Big portions. Best for sharing. Good coffee too.
Amazing cake and good coffee, definitely the pick me up I needed to help me slog through school work. A great place to meet up for a chat or just space on your own. Not dimly lit but not overly bright it's a nice little escape from the hustle and bustle of the market.
Tasty cakes but a tad on the pricier side. Total for this slice of lemon coconut cake was 8.48$.
I had the carrotcake- cheesecake I love it! I went to try to study while enjoying the dessert, but the internet did not worked.
Great vibe and yummy desserts!
Everything was good except for the music
It was so sweet of the workers to make my friend’s birthday so special. She added a candle to the slice of cake which is so small, but so nice too. Everyone was just very friendly and had some great drinks and cake. I would love to come back here!
Great selection. A bit overpriced.
My favorite place in Ottawa. Awesome cakes especially tiramisu!!!! Wanna try every cake in that place :) Highly recommended.
Good service, coffee was super bad, I was looking forward to the coffee with a piece of cake. Cake was good but the coffee was a disappointment.
One of the best coffee shop I have ever been in Ottawa. It always has varied types of fresh cakes. Highly recommended!
Very good selection of cakes and friendly staff
Numerous delicious cakes available and a good set of coffee beverages
It's a nice cosy place with some really good desserts
Soon good
love the variety of cakes they have my favorite is the pink velvet cake
Love this place! We are picky with our coffee and this place fits the bill. Plus, they will honour your mask exemption.
Mad expense for hit or miss quality cake and desserts. Cake are meh taste like bought at grocery store. Pies are good and tasty tho
Great little hidden gem in the market !
Expensive for what you get.
Amazing desserts, best service in Ottawa.
We went there to get 2 pieces of cake and both were small and not very good. This company used to be better but lately it's just not as good. What's more it's quite expensive for what you get. But now what will really never make me return to their business is their support of the anti-vaxx/public health protesters. It's because of people like that that we're stuck in this never-ending cycle of closures. I'll rather support stores that are actually doing what's right and help them get through this. P.s. All those new reviews with 5 stars that are a week old are from anti-vaxx supporters. The cakes are truly horrible, the staff act like they don't care, and this store is really just riding on their past reputation. Don't bother. There are better shops out there.
Last place I went to (celebrating my B-Day) before the whole COVID-19 lockdown thing happened. Sad, boring and depressing place. The cake was overpriced for cakes straight from Costco or frozen cake that you can get from anywhere else. Even Walmart's Tiramisu is 100x better. The overpriced Iced coffee also took a long time to come and was pretty bitter. Ended up throwing the whole thing away. Would never go back.
Good, not great and is expensive. Used to be a lot better
Prices went up.. . Got a smaller piece. But cake still good
The cakes are that good.
I purchased the Belgian milk chocolate cake and waited just over a week for it to be ready which wasn't a problem as a was picking it for a special occasion. However when I picked up it was an entirely different cake. It was a vanilla cake which they doused in cocoa powder to cover the fact it wasn't even the cake I ordered and it tasted like something I could have gotten at the grocery store. Naturally, I was upset, I paid 60 dollars and was told to send an email. Almost a week later and numerous follow up calls, needless to say I will not be returning and will be telling others the same.
Cashier was not wearing face mask properly and talked over our food and drinks several times. Good cakes but not covid-safe.
Excellent desserts and customer service. Never disappoints.
Bitchin' carrot cake
Overpriced and the customer service is not great. But they stay open later than most dessert places in downtown Ottawa.
They do not even make their own cakes. They are Dufflet cakes from Toronto. I checked out the Dufflet website to see the list of retailers and will be purchasing the same cakes from other Ottawa businesses (there are a couple of them).
It used to be ridiculously expensive cake and decent coffee. Now it is terrible coffee with smaller portions and still ridiculous prices.
The cakes and pies are very delicious. Some of them can be a bit rich, but still very tasty. Prices are a bit steep, even considering it's in the heart of the market. Great for a girls night out!
Great desserts.
Perfect place for coffee & dessert to end an incredible evening!!
Great selection of deserts
Yummy cake. Great variety including gluten free, dairy free and vegan options. Alittle pricey per price but you can share the generous portion with a friend. Recommended!
When we arrived there were dishes on many of the tables despite it being relatively quiet. When we were served we ordered a white hot chocolate and peppermint hot chocolate. From the few minutes of watching the employee working the espresso machine it was clear that she had not been trained well at all. Either their standards are low when it comes to espresso and steamed milk drinks, or their employees are simply not being trained properly. When we finally tried our drinks, they were small and sickeningly sweet. Cake looks good though and the ginger lemon cookie was great.
We tried their red velvet cheesecake and it wss as good as the cheesecake factory. It was delicious!!
So delicious. Rolled ice cream was so good. Friendly service and lots of outdoor seating.
I love this place - sipping on americano coffee with a side of cake and oh what a variety to select from. This week I had my favourite Black Forest, perfect for sharing the moist delicious chocolate and cherry flavours.
Tried three of the cakes there. The cheese cake was ok. The chocolate and Boston cream was too sweet. The coffee and latte was ok. Overall my family was so sick of cake at the end.
Nice cozy atmosphere, friendly fast service. Great variety of delicious cheesecake, coffee and tea are just ok.
Yummy yummy, so much to chooses from and great service
Huge pieces of cake, a lot of variety
Best cakes in the city
Great dessert, lovely ambiance.
Cozy atmosphere and great cake selection
Really nice dessert place with a lot of options. A wide assortment of delicious pies and cakes all freshly homemade.
Went there and had a soya milk blended hazelnut mocha, and a slice of vanilla cake. Was so good, wish the didn't microwave my cake though!? Other than that this place is great! :-)
amazing
This place has cake!
The cakes are all delicious, but pretty overpriced. They offer lots of tables for people to dine in, but it gets pretty crowded and loud in the restaurant. I was having hard time talking and listening to my friend who’s sitting right across from me, and we were yelling at each other.
Great place to chill with friends down town
Perfect place to go for a desert and a latte after a good dinner . Very nice and helpful staff and amazing variety of cakes . Nice cozy atmosphere. Good place to be with ur friends or family .
Great cheese cake and French-kiss coffee but very expensive.
Not only are these the best desserts in the city, but Peter and his team are the definition of hospitable. I cannot recommend this place enough!!
Best cakes in ottawa hands down Owner is a great person, with super great customer service, as well as the rest of the staff 10/10 im going again at least once a month
It does not deserve its name. the cafe and the cakes are awfull. The decoration is very unsuccesfull and old fashion.
Crazy expensive cakes and great coffee. Delicious and worth it ever time. Hard to beat their cheese cakes. They are my personal favourites. Tonight I split a strawberry cheesecake and a chocolate raspberry truffle with my girls. Absolutely spectacular! This a great cozy place to stop in the winter.
Hands down best cakes in the city and great service
Fantastic vegan chocolate cake. I was ecstatic when I saw they had it!
It was OK. The coffee was good. The cake was OK. You just have to do everything yourself, pretty much. But thats OK too. Decent place.
You will not be disappointed by anything you order
Music was too loud and if sitting code to the counter the banging of dishes is deafening. Besides that nice place.
As usual Peter the owner is always nice with us when we go there , i like the place.
I have been to this place twice and the first time was absolutely amazing and the cake was so fresh and tasty BUT this time there was a weird taste inside the cake and it was definitely not fresh. I was with a friend and she had blueberry cheesecake which was full of cinnamon that you couldn’t taste anything else. Honestly I feel like I will have a horrible stomachache later on because how the cream tasted like (it literally tasted like plain butter) and how bad the frosting was. I don’t know what happened here but hope they fix it soon. (to be honest I don’t really know why I’m even giving 2 stars)
One of my favourite places in town. Amazing cheesecake. The chocolate caramel cheesecake is a must try
The best dessert ...most humble people and best service ...hands down ....coffee? The best in town.....I highly recommend this place if u haven't tried it yet .....
Excellent service! Friendly staff and great icecream
Great selections, great portion sizes, and excellent quality!
Very nice cakes, quite a few to choose from. Definitely recommended for cake lovers
Good cakes plenty choices they still have to change there opening time on Google though went all over from london ontario on a saturday reached 11.30 a guy opened said we open by 12 and closed back the door google says they open 10am on a …
JUST DON'T GO! Keep go ogling This place is simply not nice. They are very overpriced for desserts that are factory made. Ice cream is 3.50 per scoop and coffee is 2.50 per cup for refills. The server told us to pay the front till and then the front till told us to pay the server. When we expressed our dissatisfaction with the place (nicely of course) the server didn't want to hear it simply stating that she is not the owner. Even after we explained that we are telling her so she can tell her manager. Looks like shes heard it many times before! I would estimate that the person who owns this restaurant is completely disconnected from, if not the restaurant than defiantly the customers. Just keep googling this place is not worth it.
Great coffee and even better hospitality! Thank you for staying open ????????
Great variety of delicious cakes and amazing friendly staff
Staff don't care about COVID-19 measures I didn't feel safe to buy from there, even if they have a good reputation for delicious cakes
I've tried many of the desserts here, and they've all been absolutely fabulous! The service has also always been great. My only complaint is how expensive it is, although that is no surprise considering the location, and the quality.
Incredible desserts, great drinks. Amazing selection. Warm and friendly staff. Definitely a great place!
Great place great service, nice to see a business that knows, understands, and respects the letter of the law. Great place.
Friendly service. Wish you could sample the cake since I don't always like the one I pick. Good quality Espresso and coffee.
Oh So Good has been great for us! Kind service, they respect mask exemptions and serve great coffee, cakes and gelato!
I can't say it's bad quality, but definitely it isn't worth the price.
I stop in to see Peter and his friendly team almost daily! Great coffee, delicious treats, and they have beautiful artwork by local artists on the walls.
I had a cherry cheesecake and it was delicious. The sever was also very nice
Expensive but their gluten free and sugar free options are really good
Good and cozy local place. Great desserts and good variety of coffee. Good option for a first date.
She was heckin good. The fresh night air really helped me make room for more cake in my tummy.
Nice cozy place, wasn’t too crowded on a frigid night. The size of the slice of cake is worth 9 bucks. Very decadent and definitely need to be shared. Definitely worth a try if you want some decadent rich cake.
Things are quite good, tasted and beautiful.
We loved the coffee and Desserts. The desserts were special there.
I don't understand the hype... The cakes are not terrible but wayyyy overpriced and tasted not fresh. We paid 20$+ for two thin slices of cake. Not worth the money + the drive downtown + parking fees. Will not come back
Decent selection of deserts and nice staff! Not too busy to the point where you get bothered.
This is one of my go-to places when I get my cake cravings. Although their cake slices were decent in size, I still do think that 9$ per slice is quite steep, that’s where they lose the one star.
Great service and great dessert and coffee
I have been here a few times it has definitley goten worse over the years! I just got back from there had a peice of cake it was the worst cake I have had and to top it all off it must have been sitting in there fridge for over a week. I was there with my mom and we both don't feel good after ! To add the place does not look clean! I will never go there again!
best cheesecake in the game
One of the best cheesecake places in Ottawa. Would recommend to takeaway but there are tables for groups and eating in.
The name really suits the place, it was so good!! Highly recommend
Fabulous selection of cakes. We tried two and they were both delicious. Counter service only, so you have to wait for your food and drinks and take to to a table. Some interesting artwork to admire on the walls, but otherwise the atmosphere is very bland.
The best desserts! Amazing and friendly staff. Very respectful and professional.
Wanted to try this place for a long time and to be honest I was disappointed. Lots of cakes and pies, but nothing outstanding, on the pricey side and service was so so. It was around 7pm on a Friday night.
After I bought my coffee the cashier said I can't use my laptop after 5pm - when I asked the reason they said no body know but it is like that. used to like this place but I will try something else now
Great service, and great cake!!!!!
I am always getting birthday cakes from here. Worth the money????
Service was slow with one person working. Places was messy with no one cleaning up. Coffee was weak and bland..wouldn't come back.
RIP-OFF! Don't go there BIG rip-off!!! they sell their cakes 9$ and don't even give you a complete portion. It is a real joke! They packed me this joke of a piece to go. I went back and ask if it is always how they serve their piece of 9$ cake and the guy was telling me yes, this is just a smaller cake I can't do anything more. WORST CUSTUMER SERVICE they don't care aat all about the custumers they just want to make money. Avoid if possible really not worth it.
So many options and always great service!
Amazing coffee and food. Staff is amazing and super friendly!
I just got back from oh so good on York street. The cake was great. We had a Ferrero richer cake, Tiramisu and coffee. It was a little pricey but good. The service was awful at best. They were really grumpy and practically threw my plate at me. I didn't tip at all it was so awful. I will not be going back.
This place has such amazing desserts! Very respectful staff!
Oh so good is not so good.
They no longer offer any vegan cake option! Used to be a good place for late threats. Seems like this place is now run by a whole bunch of rude kids. Won’t be returning.
