Next time you come to Ottawa don’t miss this unforgettable, one-of-a-kind café! Tucked in a quiet residential area of Ottawa’s Little Italy, just off Preston Street, Café Raphaël is an oasis of charm, with European flair and an impeccable attention to detail. Raphaël, the owner, greeted us warmly and personalized our beverages just as we like it. What an unexpected treat it was to enjoy a well-balanced cappuccino, sip on velvety matcha latte and savour a really good biscotti. We relaxed in an ambiance with lovingly curated objects, each telling a story. Quiet background music and beautiful decor created a feeling of ease and intimacy. Whether you are a tourist or a local, this is a café to discover, love and return to. Cannot wait to be back!
