Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Chelsea

"Image Source The chic and minimal interior of the cafe makes The Ministry of Coffee one of the most popular cafes in Ottawa among the students. The whitewashed walls on the inside look simple yet aesthetic which helps to maintain a peaceful and cool atmosphere. From the windows of the café to the colour tones, everything matches perfectly."

"It’s an iced latte with our own roasted coffee, milk, and our house-made dalgona toffee. We whip the milk, espresso and some dalgona toffee powder in a special mixer that aerates the milk to give the latte a creamy dessert-like texture. We then finish the latte off with big chunks of the dalgona toffee on top."

"The Ministry of Coffee is a 15-minute walk from campus over on Elgin Street. Surrounded by the hip stores on Elgin, this location is simple and cozy for long days of studying or coffee dates with friends. The menu is EGGcelent with several types of breakfast sandwiches, coffees, and teas."

"This snug café by day and bar by night is right at the Chinatown gate, an area somewhat light on coffee options. Bar Robo might be better known as an evening hangout, often hosting shows, but the daytime atmosphere is relaxed, with homemade doughnuts, lovely staff, and a good playlist to keep you going."

"The Bar Robo Hibiscus Cream Soda is made by steeping loose-leaf hibiscus tea along with pure cane sugar, and a dollop of real vanilla. Hibiscus imparts flavours of fruit, sweet, sour and astringency. This could well be the prettiest drink in Ottawa…"

"Coffee shop by day and hybrid bar and concert venue by night, Robo is just a really solid neighbourhood bar for Chinatown — nothing wild, just reliable cocktails, local beers, and super-friendly service."

"Image Source One of the most popular cafes in Ottawa, the Arlington Five is a very pretty café in the heart of the city. The café has a very good staff and management and the interior is well kept. On any given day, you will see a good crowd coming to have a nice chat and enjoy the delicious food they make."

"Late nights and early mornings are not uncommon in the nation’s capital. Whether you’re looking for a morning pick-me-up or a cozy meeting spot, these coffee shops will give you the energy boost you need to get through the day."

"This anchor of Old Chelsea has morphed into a take-out and delivery operation with comforting pub fare like burgers, sandwiches, and fish and chips, plus craft beers to go, although only from Friday to Sunday. Around the corner (and working with the Chelsea Pub), café Biscotti & Cie. is open all week long with coffee, pastries, pizza, and pasta."

"Ottawa doesn’t have a particularly large Filipino community, but that hasn’t slowed Tamis, which grew so popular it recently decamped to a much larger space. Expect some Filipino staples such as sizzling sisig (grilled pork belly), tangy-spicy adobo, and crepe-adjacent lumpia. Tamis also isn’t afraid to throw a few curveballs, like pimento cheese dip."

"Centretown Filipino go-to Tamis is offering delivery of dishes like spicy adobo chicken, lechon kawali (crispy pork belly), and other spicy, (mostly) meaty treats. Get it via Doordash or Uber Eats. View this post on Instagram"

"Great pizza but the guy with the grey slicked-back hair working the front desk was so unbelievably rude that it was comical. Reading some of these review..."
