Kinda like a Costco but you don't need a membership. It's really more for restaurants and businesses because some of the quantities are huge, like they have barrels of soy sauce and huge tubs of mayo. However, they have regular sized items too. Like 750ml bottles of Torani syrup. They also sell cases of exotic sodas like strawberry Fanta, Mango Pepsi, etc for $12.99 a case of 12 cans.
Not busy and chaotic like Costco, just not as much selection. Prices are comparable though.
Lots of free parking and easy to find a spot always.

I enjoy my shopping experience at Chef Depot. All the employees there are very helpful and knowledgeable. The Manager, Binu and his team always go out of their way to get items from their Toronto store in case they don’t have stocks here. I stopped most of my Toronto procurement trips because Chef Depot has it, or they get it for me. That’s such a great attitude to have for any business. Big or small. That’s why they have my business.

It is a very nice establishment where commercial enterprises can find all their needs.

They buy and resale a lot of stuff from other stores. 25% of the store is containers for restaurants. This store doesn’t have much for the home chef. Still worth a visit.

Serious Ottawa businesses don't make you call long-distance to TORONTO to speak with someone.

Chef's Depot sells food and supplies for restaurants and caterers but it's open to the public. It's a bit like a Costco Business Centre, but no membership needed. I like that in addition to huge items such as 50 pound bags of flour, they have normal sized items too, like 355ml bottles of sauces, and you can buy just 1 bottle, you don't have to buy a case, lol. They had Torani syrups for $8.98 a bottle (and you can buy just one bottle). They had root beer flavour, which I hadn't seen before. They also had Peach, Pineapple and Strawberry Crush, as well as Strawberries and Cream Dr. Pepper and a few other exotic Dr. Peppers too. Those were $11.99-$12.99 for a case of 12 cans (I wanted to buy just a can of each flavour, but they are only sold by the case and I didn't want 12 cans of the same flavour, lol). They had huge woks and pots that you'd definitely need a commercial kitchen to use. They also had takeout containers, bags, gloves, hairnets, etc. Really cool store. Prices are similar to Costco. It looks like a warehouse, so it's not aesthetically pleasing in there, but I didn't expect it to be. The walk-in freezer freaked me out a bit, what if you walked in and someone locked you in there? I've watched too many episodes of CSI, haha. Anyway, if you always wanted to go to Costco but didn't want to pay the membership fees, you can check out Chef's Depot ;) Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot.

Dear Ottawa citizens. This is my first time writing a review. Yesterday I made a significant purchase at Chef’s Depot. One of the items was frozen breaded chicken breast filets. I made one single piece to make sure it was something I can serve at my daughter’s bridal shower. It was a very poor quality and rubbery. The very next day I called to speak to a manager. When I expressed my experience he was dismissive, cold and didn’t care in the least. Did not offer a solution or offer an apology. Just said that they don’t take back frozen products with attitude. This place is not worth it. Rude and poor handling of clients. Go to the Costco business centre across the street.

Great variety and stock for business owners. Felt like some items are priced little more compared to other competitors for individual buyer. The employee at cashier was great.
