Carling Avenue, Ottawa
Coco’sCafé Creamery
Ice cream and coffee in Ottawa's west end, a few minutes from Carlingwood and a short drive from Britannia Beach.
The counter
Ice cream and coffee
A neighbourhood counter on Carling, with a few tables outside once the weather turns. Check the day's post for what is on the board.
Walk up and order
A counter rather than a sit-down café.
Seating outside
A few tables out front in the warmer months.
Minutes from the water
Britannia Beach and the parkway are close by.
Before you set off
Check the hours first
Hours at a place like this move with the season and the weather, so the honest answer is to look at the day's post rather than trust a fixed table on a website.
The same goes for what is on the board. We would rather you saw today's than a list from last season.
Finding it
On Carling, west end
2293 Carling AvenueOttawa, ON K2B 7G3
Carling is the main route through this part of Ottawa, which puts the creamery within easy reach of Carlingwood, Glabar Park, McKellar Heights, and Britannia.
Worth knowing if you are local
- Britannia Beach and the western parkway are a short drive, which makes this a natural stop on the way back from the water.
- Carlingwood is minutes east, so it works as a detour rather than a trip.
- There is parking on site, which is not a given on this stretch of Carling.
The other half of the address
Coco Auto Service is a full-service repair and tire shop at the same location. Handy if the car is already in, and handier still if it needs to be.
