Le Moulin De Provence

Located on the core of Byward Market, this is a stop for me every time I’m in Ottawa. There is a lot to choose from so be ready to make a decision on what to pick. I haven’t had their sandwiches or drinks but from what I saw they seem pretty tasty. I’ve never had an issue with service, they are welcoming and patient for those having to take a bit more time to choose from their many products. On my last trip out I got the lemon danish, meringue and double chocolate cookie. Both the Danish and Meringue were superb and I would highly recommend trying if you go. My reason for the 4 stars is for the double chocolate cookie. The taste was there but the freshness was lacking as the cookie was not soft but hard. I’m not sure if that’s the way they are going with their cookie but it is more of a crunch than a melt in your mouth. would recommend stoping here on your trip to the market!

Loved walking around the market experiencing different pubs and foods. Came across le moulin de province. Id say the French make the best pastries and the wife and I were excited to eat a legit croissant even if canada. Larhe display of baked goods, breads, pastries, cookies etc. Took some time to look everything over as it wrapped around the building. Everyrhing was fresh and looked delicious. We intended on a croissant. Which they had several different ones. But we ended up buying additional pastries just because of how tasty they looked. Prices were pretty average, service was helpful and quick. Taste was more then what was expected and yes, best croissant ever. I think only getting one in France would top it. The market is a must visit, but while there you need to stop by this Bakery and sample some of the goods.
