Good service, beautiful ambience, very aesthetic, but pastries didn't taste fresh and good, tea was good, finger sandwiches weren't good either. Overall disappointing experience for the amount of money we paid. Expected much more! read more

Quelque Chose Macaron Boutique - High tea pastries, macarons, scones, tea - Bakeries Near Me - Ottawa, Ontario

Super Cute boutique. But the customer service was meh. I felt like we were not well received, but maybe they were busy? But they had a decent selection of flavors, that were brightly colored (could be good, or could be bad, depending on what they use). We got a box of 8 and tasted a few flavors. Some were really "bright" flavors. I found the raspberry chocolate was so good and vibrant in color and flavor. But the M&M flavor, meh, skip it and get the salted caramel. But If I was in the area and I wanted a macron, I would come here again. If we had more time we would have sat in for tea, but we didn't. I would like to try that again with tea and get the whole experience. Parking is street parking. Placed seemed clean. It's small but lovely and cute. read more

Wide colorful variety of macarons and desserts, but I thought the macarons tasted pretty standard. Maybe it's the ones I tried, but I thought some of them were overly sweet, making one macaron more than enough for me. Regardless, these were very eye-catching and might be cute to bring somewhere as a gift. I just wished they came in proper macaron boxes - ours came in a plastic box that could have easily shaken up and broken the macarons. Luckily my group was eating them right away. read more

Quelque Chose Macaron Boutique - Petit sampler - Bakeries Near Me - Ottawa, Ontario

During a recent visit to Ottawa, I took my Mom and Aunt for tea. The shop is adorable, parking was quite easy and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We all had the Afternoon Tea but mine was the gluten free version. The assortment of items was a great deal for $40 ($42 for gluten free) and none of us finished all of our food. It was nice having goodies to take home and enjoy the next day. Each of us received a small fruit salad, 4 yummy tea sandwiches, scones (2 gluten free for me), three macarons each of our choice, croissants for my Mom and Aunt, lemon cake, chocolate tart, jam, clotted cream and our choice of tea. I think it is the perfect place to come for tea and they offer a Children's tea and a vegan tea, along with the gluten free. I would recommend that you call in advance if you have food sensitivities. We really had a delightful time. read more

Ok so this place is across the street from my parents house. So we come here a lot. I gave it 3 stars because unfortunately the macaroons and desserts are not always fresh! So maybe you need to ask before you pick. I love their rose macaroon. We also tried their afternoon tea, it's almost the same price as the one at the Fairmont. It was good but not as the price suggests! I also ordered once a funky Father's Day cake macaroon they offered which was very unique.. read more

Quelque Chose Patisserie recently opened up their second location in my neighbourhood (apparently their first location is in Vanier, but I've never been there). I love macarons, so I had to check them out. I went today with my mom and we bought a box of 6 macarons for $13.50. There were a lot of different flavours to choose from. We got pina colada, strawberries and cream, passionfruit chocolate, dulce de leche with puffed quinoa, pistachio, and cherry. The maracons were very aesthetically pleasing, and looked professionally made (unlike the ones I got at Sweet Castle, lol). Taste-wise they were good, although some were cloyingly sweet and others were just right. The macarons had that initial meringue-like crunch then that softness inside that was perfect. None of them were dry or stale, like I've had at The French Baker :( I'm not sure why the pina colada one was blue?!? I love pina colada, but this maracon tasted slightly artificial in flavour and was way too sweet. The passionfruit chocolate was my favourite of the lot as it wasn't too sweet and the slight bitterness of the chocolate complimented the slight sourness of the passionfruit flavour very well. Service was excellent. Staff were very nice and patient while I chose my flavours. When I asked if the macarons were baked on-site, I was told that they bake their macarons at the Vanier location and ship them to the Westboro location. They also sell imported juices, teas and jams from France. The bakery is very pretty looking, and they also sell little cakes and croissants. Everything is a bit on the pricey side, so I doubt I will be going there often, but as an occasional treat I would definitely come back for more maracons and would love to try out their other pastries. read more

This is my number one french macaron spot. I prefer these over Laduree if I'm being honest. The staff are always friendly. This is one of the few places where the quality hasn't dropped over the several years that we've been coming here. The prices are reasonable. Their afternoon tea is super cute with a reasonable price. It's also a super cute spot for selfies and pics. read more

Came here for afternoon tea as it was the only location they are currently offering it during covid. Reservations are required as they only have 2 tables open. The butter biscuit and croissant are fresh and tasty. The macarons are a hit or miss as one or two of them were hard so they were either overcooked or left overnight. We really liked the red velvet, Nutella, pistachio, and lavender one. The finger sandwiches were pretty substandard. In regards to the tea selection, I really like the Thé des Alizés read more

Really great Mac shop. Patron super friendly. Gave us free samples. Wide variety. Unique flavours, not the usual ho hum. Macaroons were fluffy, not stale and had the wow factor when the outside met the inside of the treat. Bit pricey but worth it. Pina Colada and Rose water we're the favs. Overjoyed to get fat on these...Will return! read more

Came here early on a Friday morning, as we were about to head back to Toronto. We ordered the strawberry + cotton candy milk shake. The shakes were very sweet, we ended up throwing out more than half. The shakes were priced at $8.50. The macaroons on the other hand were delicious. They offer a huge variety. Priced at $2.60 a piece. If I were to pass by Ottawa again, I'll probably drop by for more macaroons. read more

A big shout out to Quelque Chose on Richmond Road and to David, in particular!! I live in WA state, USA. I ordered a box of macarons for a friend in Ottawa and submitted the address for delivery. However I received a notice that the delivery was not made on the date requested, but by then, my friend had moved houses. A second attempt was made to deliver the treats to the new address, but they went to the old address instead. David, who was helping me, said he would personally deliver the treats to the new address. AND HE DID!!! Fabulous macarons and great service. Thank you and Happy Holidays to everyone at Quelque Chose, Richmond Road. read more

As an epicure and one with discerning taste for fine pastries, I was amazed to find the ultimate macarons in Ottawa. As pastry lover who has been making authentic Mille-feuille & Ile Flottante, I can assure you that Macarons at Quelque Chose are spectacular ! On my travels to Paris, Vienna, Montreal and Toronto, the finest pastries were tasted and you would be surprised at the quality of these macarons. read more

Very delicious Macarons. Tried the tiramisu and it was amazing, and my son loved the Nutella. The shop was nice and clean and smelled so good inside. Looks like a nice place to sit and have a cup of tea. We had to take ours to go. read more

Yep. This place is amazing! Of course I'm obsessed with laduree so going here is a great treat! The atmosphere is so cute and pink and fun. I have got macarons as well as some of the larger deserts and I'm really impressed. Everything is always fresh and tasty. They have a huge selection of fresh deserts and drinks. The drink menu isn't huge but I was impressed with the chai tea latte I bought. They have a great rooftop patio and I think you can rent it out for events. Love it! read more

Wow lots of individual sweet attention for Mother's Day tea time.thanks , your products are very good quality and taste heavenly. Michèle

My sister and I stumbled upon Quelque Chose this past Saturday and boy are we glad we did! I thought the shop only sold Macarons so I did even want to go in but I'm so happy my sister dragged me in. The décor was stunning the food was outstanding and the service was wonderful. We had a veggie croissant sandwich, the raspberry cheesecake, and the dulce de leche warm chocolate cake. The food was so fresh and delicious and we got to sit on the roof top patio all by ourselves! This place was just an amazing hidden gem and I can't wait to go back! It was the highlight of our evening! read more

Best macarons in town. The pistachio and tiramisu are my favourite ones! Coffee is really good as well. And the service is excellent. Will be back for sure read more
