Drip House

Drip House is well known locally as one of Ottawa’s favorite coffee shops. They have a growing number of locations: two on Parkdale, one on Somerset, and another on Bank Street in the Glebe. Their Somerset location turns into a cocktail bar in the evening. Between the chill music, the beautiful ambiance and great customer service, this is a great place to spend the evening. The ceiling string lights elevate an already amazing experience by setting the mood just right. From the food to the drinks, everything they do, they do it extremely well. Call it double dipping if you must but we believe it’s worth stopping here twice: in the day for a coffee and sandwich, then again in the evening for some amazing cocktails.
