The National Capital Commission's new pop-up bistro across the street from Parliament is drawing the ire of a nearby business owner who says opening it is bad for nearby businesses still struggling to recover from the pandemic.

It's a place to grab a bite or a drink in a scenic spot. Rafaela Reis and her friends had a coffee break at the new outdoor cafe located just steps away from Parliament Hill Monday.

But Jason Komendat, the owner of Ottawa Bike Café on nearby Sparks Street, says that new bistro is taking away sales. A lack of foot traffic along Sparks Street and downtown has been an ongoing issue since the pandemic and many businesses are trying to keep up with property taxes, rent and government CEBA loans.

"This is a great opportunity to offer a unique experience to visitors, tourists, and residents right in front of Parliament," the NCC said. The operator in charge of food and beverages on site, Moulin de Provence, is a member of the Sparks Street BIA and was selected through a competitive process.
