First of all, the bread is a tale as old as time. Classic! The taste brings me back to younger days when grandma would make bread. Emily was also extremely helpful. Even with several alarms (timers) ringing she was patience with all my orders.
Simply wow, great buns!

Update. Busy line and yet they still delivery (on time)!
The chef's hats are also a very nice touch!

This place is amazing! Some work colleagues recommended this shop I was looking for some good coffee and a quick bite to eat, and it most certainly did not disappoint! Next time I'm in Ottawa, I will do what I can to stop by again: simply delightful!

PS: My boss is still dreaming about the pastries one week later.)

Great place for sandwiches! I also love their breakfast croissants and various cookies as well as the spinach spiral:)

My favorite bakery but have a hard time accessing with not living downtown with only being open in the mornings and not accepting online pick up orders on the only day their open on the weekends. Also sad that they stopped carrying my fav walnut carrot muffins, just hope my other favorites don't start disappearing as well. Hope to eat at again soon

Ideal place for brunch. I loved everything I had from here. It’s a cozy place to sit and talk. The pastries were good. I also loved the way the walls of cafe is decorated.

J'ai adoré le croissant à la crème pâtissière et amande
J'ai aussi testé la spirale à la feta et les épinards et c'était vraiment bon
Je recommande vivement

Today I had a brownie here and it was fresh and very tasty and the employees there provided a fast and efficient service.

Breads and sons is a small place with big vibes to spread! I have always had amazing experiences each time I visit the place.
The food is heartfelt! I have dropped by place early, right on time, even after that have just closed (of course, they opened the door for me!) The quality and taste of the food as been outstanding nevertheless of the time of visit!
Although everything over here tastes amazingggg!
My top picks at Breads and sons - Panini, Perfect choco chip cookie (this stuff is gold here), pizzas and croissants!

The goat cheese sandwich was on a bread that when toasted was almost hard to bite through. And overpriced—$10.49 for a sandwich? I expect it to have some protein in it at least. The coffee was not bad but not outstanding. The almond croissant with custard filling —I found the outside layers to be way to hard. I would not come back here.

This place is amazing. They have the best pizza slices in the city. All vegetarian and all delicious. Some of the sandwiches are wayyyy too salty, but they are still very good. The almond croissant is excellent too.

Delicious cookies (hazelnut is one of the best I’ve ever had) and coffee - have tried their pizza too and it’s pretty good

A little whole in the wall, a true gem located on Bank Street that offers so much deliciousness. The sourdough and multigrain breads are delightful and the pizzas sold by the slice are delicious.

Très bonnes Viennoiseries et café.
Le personnel est très gentil et souriant.
Merci

I had almond croissant and Americano, which were both good but nothing extraordinary. Place was untidy-all tables were full of bread crumbs left from previous guests, and nobody seemed to be cleaning tables. Everything is served in papercups and boxes.

The best pizza by far in the city not greasy and amazing flavours, the MOST delicious cookies and brownies and affordable prices! Highly recommended!

Irresistable Ottawa downtown bakery.
There is no bad bite at Bread and Sons. Dessert, pizza, coffee, pastries, and bread of course, all freshly made and smelling/tasting amazing.
Pizza toppings are gourmet and not the standard pepperoni or standard fare you can buy from the larger chains and shops. Bread and Sons makes their pizza with other ingredients that shine.

I've come here twice now, it's typically hard for me to make it here when they're open due to the limited hours.

Their bread is pretty good. I find their selection is not as good as other local bakeries, especially for types of bread for a store called bread & sons.

I also came on a Saturday to get bread and was told on Saturdays they only sell day old bread, which wasn't exactly what I was hoping for.

Overall the bread is okay but I've preferred other local bakeries, and their selection feels limited. Definitely better than you're going to get at a super market so worth it if that's the alternative.

I've only had their panini so far but this place has become my go-to lunch spot when working downtown. Simply amazing!

This is the stuff dreams are made of. No kidding. The breakfast sandwich is life-changing stuff.
I went there yesterday, told them I wasn't local and asked for recommendations. They recommended me the breakfast sandwich and the almond croissant, both delicious.
I loved this place so much I dropped by again hours later and got a pizza (OMG, their pizza!) and a chocolate cookie.
Can't stress this enough, do yourselves a favor and drop by.

O. M. G. Google, please increase your star rating options because Bread and Sons has just blown me away, and 5 stars just isn't enough. We had the tempeh and gauda sandwiches, a garlicy slice of pizza with jalapeno (do not overlook the pizza here), two pastries (an almond-ey, custurd-ey, blueberry croissant and this expresso cream filled pain au chocolat type deal topped with copious amounts of nutty goodness), and lattes of course. I wish I remembered the names and all the ingredients, but what I will never forget is the insanity of all this. So, so, so, so, so tasty (to the power of infinity). Flavours = bursting; freshness = *chefs kiss*; texture = soft and crispy in all the right ways. I could write more but first let me have the best nap of my life courtesy of some of the best sandwiches, pastry and pizza I've ever had. Y'all are special, and I can't believe I live two blocks away and waited so long to enjoy your transcendent deliciousness. Can't wait to be back - thank you for all that you do!

Excellent value and quality, always consistent. Waiting patiently for their Moroccan Summer sandwich to come back:)

Amazing! Some of the best croissants I had in a while! All the pastries were light and delicious, super fresh.
Little store with lots of options for a very reasonable price. Would love to be back for those perfect hazelnut and almonds croissants!

Love it. I'm so sad that they close around 3pm now. I love their pizza, sandwiches, and baked goods. But I especially love the customer service. The girls who work the counter have always been lovely and kind. Thank you to everyone on the team
