Sofia Vintage Motor Cafe
Overview
Sofia Vintage Motor Café pairs specialty coffee and a seasonal, locally focused menu with a private vintage car and motorsports collection visible behind a glass partition. The café sells in‑shop beans and supplies, offers event bookings, and hosts occasional guided tours of the collection.
Located at 1158 Bank St in Old Ottawa South, the venue posts hours on its website (Tue–Sat 8:00–19:00; Sun–Mon 8:00–16:00) and runs small‑group guided tours for mailing‑list subscribers once a month with proceeds donated to Hospice Ottawa.
