Brunch at Gezellig is a must-try in Ottawa. Their two-plate menu for $28 is a great deal, letting you mix and match sweet and savoury dishes for the perfect meal. Crowd favourites like the breakfast poutine, eggs Benedict, and French toast stand out for their rich flavours and careful presentation. The bright, open space makes for a relaxed brunch setting, and the service is always warm and attentive. Portions may seem small at first, but they’re just right—leaving you satisfied without feeling too full. Reservations are a good idea since this spot fills up fast!
