Zelda's Cafe

They close at 7pm on Thursdays . We were 12 minutes before they closed. Nice place. We ordered chocolate and strawberry sundays but they didn’t have any toppings but whip cream that started melting, two scoops of ice cream one chocolate one vanilla and the other was one vanilla the other strawberry. Really wasn’t a Sunday but the ice cream was good. The lady at the counter was nice even though they were ready to close. Would try to come earlier next time. Definitely come back to try something else.

My wife and I were looking for some ice cream and thought about stopping at Dairy Queen or Freddy’s, but we try to support local establishments when we can so we tried this place. The girl who took our order was nice and let us know what items were popular and also gave suggestions. I got an affogato and my wife got a “floating latte” which was basically a latte with a scoop of custard. Like a root beer float, but with coffee. They were both delicious! The custard in my affogato was rich and fulfilling. It was so good I forced myself to go back and order a waffle cone with a couple scoops of custard. Well worth it. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing, as we were the only customers in the store at the time. The owner put in some effort to make the café inviting with pictures of beaches and chairs and tables throughout the whole place. There was even an open cabinet with board games if people wanted to play a game. A major selling point for me was the prices in relation to value for what you got and the quality. They were very reasonable compared to the competition. I will definitely be going again and recommending this place to all my family and friends.

We got a bagel and biscuits and gravy. The bagel was delicious. The biscuits were a bit strange, seemed to be more of a cornbread texture. Not ideal for me... But again the bagel was great. Gonna try some other things when I am in town. Very hopeful.

The drive thru is very convenient.

We have had the custard. And it is wonderful! I recently had a breakfast panini. And it was amazing. The lady also gave me a list of build your own ingredients for next time. Our next visit will most likely be the breakfast buffet this weekend. And if they have the lemon crinkle cookies, I'll be taking some home!

Love this place. Locally owned. Best oweners and employees. A place for the family. The floating lattes are Amazing or the pumpkin cream cheese muffins are the best(you won't want to share so buy two).

My husband and I both had custard in a waffle bowl. One chocolate and one strawberry. It was very smooth and flavorful. We were greeted right away by the staff when we arrived and they were very friendly. Atmosphere was quiet and we felt at home. When in Ottawa again I would consider returning.

Lovely new place with a great atmosphere very friendly staff.

The cappuccino was great, the icee's were very tasty and the icecream was perfect for the little one.

Lots of cool sayings on the wall. It is obvious this place is trying to become a wonderful hangout spot even though they are still fairly new.

They have a huge menu with lots of different options.

That had to have been the best espresso I’ve had in ages. Could have been the frozen custard underneath, not sure. I’ll have to do more testing 🤣

The Breve and cold Latte with vanilla custard, with hazelnut added to both are amazing! The bagels are huge, so whether you were doing one with cream cheese, added, which they do and put a nice amount 🤘or are doing a breakfast sandwich, you can’t go wrong. Nice gem in Ottawa!
Atmosphere is comfy, and the people are nice too. And when you go back, Michael might have your order memorize. Makes you feel like family. They also have board games for family fun.

Did the drive thru blueberry muffin and iced vanilla latte wonderful!

This is a fairly new business in the area. It is a family owned and operated business with ownership on site on a daily basis. This a definite plus in my book. I had an Earl Grey tea latte with half and half and vanilla syrup. It was excellent. I also tried one of their omelette muffins. I really liked that. It was reasonably priced and a complete breakfast served hot in an easy to eat hand sized format. I can't wait to go back and try something new.

We went for breakfast and had a cinnamon roll and breakfast bagel with a frappe and latte. All was delicious. It did take a little time, but they are all still learning the process. We came back in the afternoon. My daughter had bubblegum flavored ice and I had chocolate custard with Reese’s. Very very good and seemed to have more staff to be able to handle the amount of customers. Definitely a great addition to our community and I hope they’re around for a very long time!

Husband works driving over the road and since I am with him now we are looking for good breakfast and coffee spots all the time . They have many ropes of bagels and they are so good!!! Breakfast bagel was yummy ! Husband loved it. Coffee was strong and good. Will definitely go back when in Ottawa

Wonderful coffee (they use Repetition beans). Delicious homemade pastries, and friendly service.
Clean, lots of seating, and even boardgames.

It’s so great to have a coffee shop on the North end of town. Staff was kind and attentive both times I’ve been, and the coffee was delicious. I had a cheddar/bacon muffin the first time - it was dry and bland. I couldn’t eat it… I decided to try their baked goods again today and the pumpkin loaf was AMAZING. I’m writing the muffin experience off as a fluke and will visit again soon!

My family stopped here while passing thru town. We planned on going to Sonic for ice cream, but Zelda's popped up on my Google search, and I am SO glad I checked the website out. I needed a caffeine fix and my husband and kids wanted ice cream. The Mocha Latte over a scoop of custard was amazing! It was a warmth to the soul that I needed! The Chocolate Twisters with m&ms were amazing and so was the vanilla with peanut butter cups! The bakery items looked delicious!! The place was clean and welcoming, I love the chill atmosphere they have...board games selection, different style seating areas, and kids table. Whenever we pass thru Ottawa again, I am making sure we stop at Zeldas!!

Great coffee shop! Delicious latte, very friendly, and nice atmosphere!

Great small business. Everything is home made. The biscuits and sausage gravy do not disappoint and servings are generous.
Been there several times and loved everything.

First time and went through the drive through. The guy working it was super nice and helpful. I can attest that the blueberry biscuits, cinnamon roll, and lemon cookie are delicious!

They did a great job with the remodel. The food is great!
