Reviews for Arlington Five in Ottawa, ON
The Arlington Five was such an unexpected treat! While waiting for our table at Wilf and Ada, we grabbed a coffee and a lemonade... and enjoyed the fast paced thrill of the comings and goings. The flat white was delicious and I enjoyed the strength of thecoffee to oat milk ratio, but felt it was on the small side. The sour cherry lemonade was so refreshing and exactly what weneeded. We had to wait for a table as the wasps had taken over their outdoor spaces (what?s with Ottawa and wasps?!) Staff arefriendly. Water was gross and tepid tasting :( Read more

I love the community heart of this place as much as I love their coffee. It?s a cozy spot both indoors and out, but I especially... love how they try to foster connections to the community and between people ? by hosting brainstorming sessions, or holding minimarkets, or doing non-alcoholic nights on occasion? But of course the coffee and food is important too, and both are excellent.They use coffee by small, ethical local roasters, and make tasty baked goods and a very delicious breakfast sandwich too. Such afriendly place overall. Read more
I tried mocha here. It was excellent and I loved it. The mochas are really good here that sometimes they run out of mochas... nearing lunch. I loved the interior of this place. They have both outdoor and indoor seating. The place was pretty crowded andhad to wait almost 10-15 mins.. but it was worth it. The staffs are very friendly They are very fast and dedicated to theirjob. There is street parking right outside the cafe. Mostly, it's full but the streets near to the cafe also has street parkingso would be fine. Read more
One of my favourite coffee shops in Ottawa for sure. The service is always exceptional and friendly. We were curious about the... non-alcoholic wine they were selling and they offered us an impromptu tasting which was so kind and generous. Love their lattes,blueberry buttermilk muffins and blackberry scones. Delicious! They were also super welcoming of our puppy. Can?t wait for ournext visit! Read more
Lovely local coffee shop! A variety of pastries and many of them are gluten free and/ or vegan. Many coffee options available... with lots of different types of milks. I bought a bag of ground coffee that I can?t wait to try too! They also sell soaps andplants and lil things. A decent amount of seating available too. I also really really appreciate that they are still holding avaccine mandate! Makes me feel so much safer. Thank you so much! Read more
Cute coffee house, baristas are experienced to make craft coffee using high end espresso machines. We could order hot drinks and... pick them up later on. Nice and informative owner. Read more
