Planet Coffee, Byward Market, Ottawa

“ Incredible coffee cake — a birthday tradition I look forward to every year! The service is warm and welcoming, making every visit a delight. Nestled in a charming corridor of Byward Market, the cafe offers a variety of delicious desserts alongside its signature treat. A must-visit for anyone craving top-tier sweets in a cozy, inviting atmosphere. Highly recommended! ”

“ The coffee is delicious, the servers are super friendly, but for me this place is 5 stars for another reason. I went to apply for a visa at the US embassy and they didn't allow me to enter with my backpack, I admit that I was desperate, because I didn't know what to do with my backpack. I came to the cafe and asked the attendant to keep my backpack until I got back. She, Michaela, simply saved my day. Of course, after that we enjoyed a coffee and one of the patisseries, which, by the way, are very tasty!!! ”

“ Excellent coffee! Some delicious pastries too! Nice atmosphere and seating. Cashier could have been friendlier.. Overall it was good. ”

“ Very cozy little coffee shop right off of the ByWard market business. The fact it is tucked away surrounded by oldtimey buildings really add to the relaxing atmosphere. The date, rhubarb and the pumpkin square were all delicious. The iced moka was really good and I also recommend the ice tea and the double shot flat white. ”

“ Gem in Ottawa! Love that they have a huge selections of bakery and pastries. Great selection of beverages as well. I was surprised to find the cafe very spacious. Their jupyter jolt and coffee cake was nice. Their matcha latte was good, but I was a little disappointed to find out that it had vanilla syrup in it. I do think they should’ve specified that their matcha latte has extra flavor syrups in it. A great cafe overall where I will be visiting again! ”

“ Tried the pumpkin square along with the peanut butter oat bar. We had a matcha latte and hot chocolate. The vibe is chill and the desserts are amazing! Drinks were up to par as well! Recommend for a coffee/dessert stop! ”

“ Lovely coffee shop with plenty of indoor seating. Loved the vibe and cozy atmosphere. We tried the tomato soup and avocado sandwich, which were awesome, though the sandwich seemed quite small for me. The Earl Grey tea and hot chocolate were also good. Highly recommend and would be happy to visit again. ”

“ Delicious assortment of baked goods - the date and pecan scone was great! Comfortable seating areas, including tables and chairs outside in a courtyard. ”
