Why Guests Love This
La Bottega is the kind of shop that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a side street in Bologna — floor-to-ceiling shelves of imported Italian oils, vinegars, pastas, and sauces, a deli counter with freshly sliced prosciutto and house-made sandwiches, and the unmistakable aroma of good espresso. Guests pick up beautifully packaged food gifts to bring home, grab a panini for a ByWard Market lunch, or stock up on high-quality olive oil and aged cheeses. It’s a 20-minute drive from the airport, and the George Street location puts you in the heart of Ottawa’s most walkable neighbourhood.
