Ottawa Bagelshop And Deli Inc

1321 Wellington St W, Ottawa, ON K1Y 3B6

Come for its cafeteria-style breakfast and stay to read the paper. I love this relaxing spot, and I’m not alone. Breakfast bagels, any way you want them, keep this place packed - plus you can take a bag of those freshly baked bagels home. They are the cousins of Montréal’s famous Viateur Bagel Shop.

Newport Restaurant

322 Churchill Ave N, Ottawa, ON K1Z 5B9

An Ottawa institution, Mo Atallah’s humble eatery still draws in the crowds – and I mean people of all ages. The staff is as loyal as a clientele - no one has worked here less than 10 years. Expect plenty, except do not expect to pay a fortune.

Fil's Diner

1209 Wellington St. W, Ottawa, ON K1Y 2Z8

This place has been serving breakfast and bowling for as long as anyone can remember. The recent makeover has not reduced the great service. It’s a great spot for a regular breakfast. Be careful, if you make a wrong turn you’ll be in the connecting pub.

Corner Bar and Grill

4
344 Richmond Rd, Ottawa, ON K2A 0E8

You will get exactly the kind of breakfast you’d expect in a pub/grill. If that’s what you are searching for, then fantastic! This spot is unpretentious in every way, from the menu to the servers to the dark ambiance. This place is still the real McCoy.

Art-Is-In Bakery

5
250 City Centre Ave, Ottawa, ON K1R 6K7

This bakery is easily Ottawa’s best-kept secret. Regardless of its anonymity, this bakery/restaurant serves the most interesting breakfast choices in town. I especially love Le Croque Monsieur and anything with the house made ketchup. The restaurant is cafeteria style, with picnic tables, making it an ideal spot for a casual breakfast.
