Bad service and cold bacon.

Also, a service fee is added to the bill, which they don't mention, and the tip option comes up on the machine.
Cheeky cheeky.

Just tried to go. But the music was so obnoxiously terrible. Mainstream trap. Had to leave. Didn't get to try anything.

Love a place with non-pork breakfast options! Energy and the service was great. First time having a meatball Benny and honestly a great experience. Great brunch option in byward!

Nice brunch spot in downtown Ottawa. The atmosphere was chill and had great entertainment. The food was also tasty and service was ok. They also have a variety of options, including vegetarian. However, I found it kind of surprising that a 15% gratuity was included in the bill upfront, for a table of 3.

Loved this place for brunch, delicious vegetarian eggs benedict. Great place to meet friends for a coffee.

Love this spot. I've been here a few times to have brunch solo and it's perfect to people watch. The servers are super friendly and it's all around gives off good vibes. Oh and the food is really damn good.

Beautiful and creative space to eat and socialize. Sometimes places like this can just look aesthetically pleasing and the food is bad but this place was amazing and the staff were so friendly and helpful. My hubby and I had the avocado toast and the grilled cheese and both were incredible! I also had the dulce de leche latte and it was the perfect amount of sweetness and temperature we will definitely be back!

Only taking one star for food because I bit into something like a rock when I bought the chicken sandwich. But everything else was great. Staff, ambiance, service. Should definitely check it out.

Breakfast is my absolute favourite meal to go out for. You can’t go wrong with a breakfast meal anywhere you go - it’s really all the same. Then there’s Headquarters! Wow! This is my new fave spot! They have a slightly different take on breakfast/brunch. The food is bomb, no matter what you order. If you are looking for something different outside of your usual bacon & eggs - this is the spot! Highly recommend! Too bad I live 5 hours away. When I’m in town visiting my son again, I’m definitely coming here for breakfast 100%. The service was great. The atmosphere was fantastic. I will definitely be back!

I’ve been going to see Shiana for about a year and there is no one else in Ottawa I trust with my hair. She is very professional and friendly. She is a master of all. I’ve gotten my hair straightened three times and have never experienced heat damage as someone with natural hair. You can also enjoy a drink from the restaurant while you are getting your service done.

Easily the best chicken and waffles in the city. I've gone back numerous times and tried many things but nothing tops them!

Nice spot in the Byward Market.
Food is fresh and service was excellent. Water for the table without asking, hot sauces, salt and pepper so on arrived.

Only downside was a 15% gratuity added to our bill for a party of two. We'd probably have tipped more but this sort of forced gratuity is ugly. Won't return.

Overall the food is just decent but the service is on point. We were served by Salma who was very attentive.

I go there often with a few of my friends and the food is always great with excellent services as well. Namely Salma, she’s very attentive, kind and just positive all around.

Food was decent and service was average. A 15% gratuity was added to our bill (party of two). I was surprised given that this is a cafe style place and the waitress asked for an additional tip on top of the gratuity already included.

Took some of my friends there a few times and the service is incredible. The food is delicious and the servers are very attentive especially Salma who has served us
a few times.

They allow (non service) dogs inside at the tables which I find quite disgusting. Like it was sitting up on the table where people eat. Literally wanted to leave

Best brunch spot in Ottawa hands down. The breakfast sandwich is so good you’ll be dreaming about it until you go back to get it again.

Sam is the absolute best when it comes to balayage and color. She always knows what's just right and super meticulous with her application! Love the vibe and coffee is great too!

I came today for a brunch with my family, the food was amazing as much as the drinks. And also, the service there was wonderful, my server safaa was so friendly and attentive to all the details which made my family very happy and we definitely coming back! I recommend this place!

Great latte. Ok breakfast but It was a bit small for me, especially considering the price. Surprised at the lack of vegan options as well

What an amazing little brunch spot in the centre of the town! I heard so much about their fancy cocktails and always wanted to try. Me and my friends decided to go their for brunch date. Food and drinks were so good. Amazing Customer Service. I will for sure be coming back!

Their Egg Benedict is good, although not surprisingly good. However, this location is extremely noisy: the music is loud, the customers here talk VERY loudly, I can’t even hear the staff members talking to me.
