Gingerbread Man — Restaurant in Ottawa

We live in the core of Ottawa and we visited Manotick and its wonderful Gingerbreadman with our little girl for the first time today, on a gorgeous early summer's day. The verdict? A charming little store with fun, impressive gingerbread creations and a very kind and outgoing proprietor. My daughter really liked their bubble-gum ice cream, which she enjoyed at one of their two little tables outside the store. Unfortunately the cone was the only thing we bought at the store as we had limited cash on hand, which leads me to my only complaint: they only accept cash.

I am sure my rating will go up once I can actually go inside and try some of their food but for now its a 1 sorry.

I will come back and I think you will like coming here too. My...

We got ice cream here today and while the ice cream was good, the counter service left something to be desired. They handed my son a broken cone that looked like it was about to collapse, and when we asked for a cup to catch it in case it fell, the girl behind the counter huffed at us and complained that it "it costs more". Thankfully the front door guy knew what customer service meant and went a got a spoon once it did Infact fall and our son was struggling to eat it.

I understand it was busy but huffing at customers that are asking for something reasonable to correct your mistake means we will likely...
