Ottawa's Coziest Witch-Themed Scone Haven: The Scone Witch Review 🧙‍♀

On a chilly late-October afternoon in Ottawa, when the wind made stepping outside feel like an act of bravery, I found warmth and magic at The Scone Witch—a charming downtown café that feels like it was designed specifically for introverts who want to linger over baked goods. From the moment I shuffled in, shivering from the cold, to the reluctant moment I left (with a takeout box in hand), this spot proved to be one of those rare cafés that makes you want to stay forever. 🧈 The Scone Experience: Sweet vs. Savory 1. Savory Scone with Scrambled Egg (⭐️⭐️) Visually appealing but ultimately underwhelming. The scone itself was dense and dry, with a "dead dough" texture that made me question my life choices. The scrambled egg filling (while perfectly cooked) couldn’t save it. Major disappointment. 2. Vanilla Sweet Scone (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) 🏆 The redemption arc! Cutting into this revealed: Perfect crumb: Not too soft, not too dense—just the right rustic texture Subtle vanilla aroma (likely from syrup rather than seeds) Moist interior with a lightly crisp, sugar-dusted top How to Eat It: Slice horizontally Spread clotted cream (luxuriously thick but not greasy) Add strawberry jam (barely sweet, with real fruit texture) Sandwich together and savor slowly Portion Note: Most customers share one—I, however, devoured 1.5 like a starved medieval peasant. No regrets. ☕ Coffee & Jam Situation House Blend Coffee: Standard diner-quality (does the job) Strawberry Jam: Possibly homemade? No artificial gelling or cloying sweetness—just bright, fruity flavor. Available for purchase! 💸 Pricing & Tipping Etiquette 1 savory + 1 sweet scone + coffee = $20 (pre-tip) Tipping? The POS system requires manually skipping (press "OK" 3x). Locals often don’t tip (it’s counter-service), but I tossed coins into the jar anyway. Self-Bussing: Customers return dishes to a designated tray by the door. 🕰️ Vibe & Hours Weekend brunch until 3 PM Closes at 4 PM (I loitered until 3:30, mourning my departure) Witchy décor: Whimsical without being kitschy ✨ The Magic of Good Food Standing outside afterward, gazing at the witch decals on the windows, I realized: Food really is a kind of magic. The world was still cold, the sky still gray—but with a belly full of buttery scones, everything felt warmer. Final Verdict: ✅ Sweet scones = 10/10 (Worth braving Ottawa winters for) 💡 Pro Tip: Come for a late breakfast, stay for the cozy vibes 📍 The Scone Witch (Multiple locations—I visited the downtown spot) #OttawaEats #SconeLove #CozyCafes #WitchyVibes #ComfortFood #OttawaBrunch #HiddenGems #NoRegrets #ButterMakesEverythingBetter
