    This cafe is so convenient and so great for when you want a light, fresh, and delicious lunch. I came here with a friend on Canada Day, and since it's right in the middle of ByWard Market, you would expect it to be crazy busy, but the line was moving fast. Their service was fast and friendly. We ordered two paninis, one vegetarian with roasted vegetables and the one ham and Swiss, as well as a few different salads - potato, pasta, bean, and Greek. Our meals were surprisingly very filling and not too expensive. Their paninis were so flavourful and toasted just right, and all of the pastas were made with fresh ingredients. We managed to find a seat on the patio and really enjoyed out lunch. They were light but filling - just perfect when it's nice and sunny out, and even better when you plan on walking around the Market after!

    This place has some solid coffee, though slightly more expensive than most places.  It's a great choice compared to some of the other chains in the market.

    The patio is awesome to relax at in the summer and all types of people walk by.  I haven't had a chance to try any of the food here but the staff has been friendly to me the couple of times I've been by.

    Good coffee, salads, sandwiches and service.  Free Wi Fi and good place for people watching.  This morning, I had a triple shot Cappuccino with a biscotti side to start the day off.  Cafe 55 is located in 55 ByWard Market Square.  Outstanding shops, all kinds of ethnic food, pastries and a wonderful candy shop adjacent to cafe 55 for those with a sweet tooth.

    Great coffee and great service!  I met with a friend here before touring art galleries and we had great coffee!  Sandwiches are pressed and thin, perfect for having a side of one of their fabulous salads.  Beer is even served here to the side of the coffee bar.

    The atmosphere is great, just the kind of place to go for lunch with the girls.  In the summertime when the market is at it's busiest, this is a great place to take a break from shopping.  Very friendly service.  This is a busy spot.  

    Or you could have a coffee here after grabbing some ethnic food at one of the several restaurants also located in the Byward Market building.  It's not hard to be tempted by something here!
