A taste of home in Ottawa’s east end.
Nseya’s African Market is a grocery store in Orléans focused on authentic African ingredients and freshly made foods.
Public listings describe a store that stocks ingredients and prepared foods from across the continent, with spices, grains and specialty items that can be hard to find elsewhere in Ottawa, alongside the international pantry staples that round out a weekly shop.
Whether you are cooking a family recipe, feeding a crowd, or trying a new dish for the first time, you are welcome to ask questions and take your time.
What matters here
Three things we care about.
Simple promises any good neighbourhood grocer should keep.
