Great place for drinks and some pool, though the tables were definitely not level. Bartenders were extremely friendly and helpful.

One of a kind dive bar & an Ottawa institution. The definitive jaunt for all flavours punk, metal, and alternative music in the Byward Market, with chill vibes and strong anti-establishment spirit. Also the home of some of the nicest people in town.

The staff always welcomes me with arms wide open and takes my mood to a place higher. I always make sure to tip highly for the friendly staff and my sacrifice is appreciated.

Our go to dive bar in Ottawa for cheap drinks, live music, pool, chilling in the back patio. Murals downstairs are often done by local tattoo artists.
We were here last evening for a live show, and i enjoyed myself. There's a variety of seating, the drinks are actually reasonably priced for being in the market. The staff were friendly and made very good drinks. The bands were good and loud. Definitely a chill place to hang out, with some cool artwork strewn about. They also have pool tables on non live show nights :). I'll definitely add this to my bar crawl list. Definitely a dingy metal head kind of place and that's said with love! If you want upscale and snobby, Definitely not for you lol.

You won't get a more authentic Ottawa dive bar experience than the Dominion Tavern. It has either two coin operated pool tables or a live band. Awesome spot.
