Ottawa NightlifePubs
Address: 2193 Richardson Side Rd, Carp, ON
Set in an 1870s-era schoolhouse, the Cheshire Cat looks for all the world like a traditional British pub. The food and beer menus, too, are reminiscent of what you might find in a public house across the pond, although you'll also find some local microbrews on the list. And the clientele includes not a few Brit...

Ottawa's favorite Irish Pub, with an interior crafted in and imported from the Emerald Isle itself, is a terrific place to visit and soak up a little local color and history (not to mention a pint or two). After all, namesake D'Arcy McGee, the "Father of Confederation," was assassinated on nearby Sparks Street in...

Address: 67 Clarence St, ByWard Market, Ottawa, ON K1N 5P5
Irish Village is actually a collection of bars at ByWard Market, each with its own take on the traditional British or Irish pub. The Heart and Crown, Mother McGintey's, the Snug Pub and Roisin Dubh share a kitchen (which turns out reliably good pub grub) and all have street-facing patios, which are packed during warm...
Address: 1 Beechwood Ave, Ottawa, ON K1M1M2
With its big rooftop terrace (the largest in town) and great views over the Rideau River, the New Edinburgh has many loyal fans. Add to that several big screen TVs, a great selection of import beers and microbrews, and satisfying pub grub and it's no wonder the place gets packed. If you're not looking for a full meal,...

Choose from 36 draught beers (over 200 beers in all), 13 by-the-glass wines and 16 brands of scotch. Enjoy a plate of spaghetti and meatballs, a pizza, or one of eight different preparations...

On game nights, it's not uncommon to find the place crowded with execs who are counting on the Blackthorn's famous "pub grub" to sustain them through the night. In the warmer months, the patio...

This subterranean pub has a huge fan base, thanks to its exceptional food, wide-ranging list of beers and scotches, and lively, artistic atmosphere. The curried mutton wrap earns raves, but vegetarians will be quite pleased with their options as well. Sunday brunch is stellar, and changing local art adorns the walls....
