21 Best Sports Bars in Ottawa

“Nice selection of beers - I enjoyed a NEIPA.“

“A-fucking-mazing!!! Best time I’ve had in awhile! Must, must, MUST do!“

“Ottawa's Premier Sports bar for sure. Come watch all the live action everyday. 2024 Euro action in full swing. Come cheer on Team Canada on as they make history this Friday at 9pm. Center Screen with Sound.“

“Amigos - My favorite local bar! Overall, you'll enjoy it nonetheless.
Atmosphere is giving 2005 vibes, best throwbacks in the West end from Hip-Hop, RnB, Dancehall, Reggae Music, etc. Owner is the best of the best, always warm welcomes & smiles. Food is always proper & fresh served hot from the kitchen. Simply put, you'll enjoy it if you're not afraid of the off-crowd & act like you've been there before.“

“Great place to play some pool. Have a Chat with friends and have a beer. Families, couples and even a little bragging rights competition, just a great atmosphere. Music was quiet enough for conversation but loud enough to enjoy. Staff was friendly and courteous. Would definitely recommend. Didn't eat, so can't comment on the food.“

“Great place for a quick bite, a beer or two with friends and a good game on the many TV's. The food is great and the staff is friendly and service is fast. I recommend the beuf au jus and the Mac and cheese with bacon and jalapeños. It's also a great place to wait for the traffic to come down!“

“Originally tried to eat at the Baxter location but came here instead. Good choice.

Located within a plaza so there is plenty of free parking.

Atmosphere is nice and welcoming with clean tables and washrooms.

Staff is friendly and knowledgeable of the menu and can recommend choices.

Food itself is surprisingly good that offers massive discounts after 9PM. We decided to order almost the entire appetizer menu to sample everything.

Overall, I would recommend to friends and family and would come back.“

“We stumbled upon this great little pub. Jesse the bartender was great!! Stop in! You won’t be disappointed !!“

“Amazing staff and owners ans service. Always a pleasure being here. Thank you“

“Amazing food and drinks. Would highly recommend.“

“10/10! The White Album was amazing and some of the best garlic sauce I've ever had! They have incredible food.“

“Great place to watch a game or just hang out with friends. Staff always friendly and efficient. During high volume, the manager (Matteo) is often seen pitching in taking orders or serving - as a frequent guest, I appreciate the team atmosphere. Never disappointed with the food and/or drinks.“

“Tonight there was a group of men promoting white supremacy and confederate flags in Maclarens. They confirmed this verbally to us when we asked about their shirt. When we told the manager in an attempt to help their business and let them know what kind of space they are promoting and allowing, and that they were losing us as customers, they said "their money is green". They told us loudly that they do not care. BOYCOTT THIS BAR IF YOU ARE ANTI-SLAVERY, ANTI-WHITE SUPREMACY. PS I do not know why this shows as me recommending the place. NO I DO NOT RECOMMEND. 0/5“

“Had a great time!!! Staff are friendly“

“Josh and Alex are both great Bartenders, really add to the great Happy Hour at this Jack's location. Awesome place and vibe.“

“We’ve been longtime customers of Fumoir Smoque Shack and it’s always our go-to spot for family celebrations. We love their food—it’s consistently excellent, and my kids can’t get enough of it! The service is always friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and perfect for gatherings. We used to visit them at their Ottawa location, and we’re so happy they’ve moved to Gatineau. Whether it’s a birthday dinner or a family event, this is the place we always choose. Highly recommend!“

“I visited the restaurant with my entire lab group for a lab lunch. Everyone chose their own meals and drinks. As a vegetarian, I went with the Fiesta Salad, and I’ve become a big fan of it—it was absolutely delicious!

To finish off, we shared some desserts, and they were everything you could hope for. We had a brownie with ice cream, and my cookie ate my brownie for the table—it was so good, I loved it!

I also had a non-alcoholic mango drink—I can’t remember the exact name, but it was incredibly refreshing.

I definitely want to go back again!“

“Sam and her staff really do care about the clients and their food. Attentive, eager to help, always checking on how things are going & genuinely want to make sure people are happy. Prices are reasonable & the beer is cold. The Sens shuttle is very convenient. A great locally owned place to support & not too far away!! Thanks Sam!“

“Great place to go for dinner, drinks, or have a party! Vince was super nice and helpful, and we had an amazing time.“

“Came for the IESA State Wrestling tournament. swung in for some drinks during a break to celebrate my nephew getting into the Championship. Our server/bartender/ runner/ host/ one man front of house machine GREG!!!! and his cook who we couldn't utilize sadly because only those two were running the place and we had a limited time. Great environment, menu looked amazing, amd great taps available. Gregg acknowledged every person walking through the door got us our drinks with perfect timing and could be seen running the floor to help everyone out. next time We're up north this place will be a for sure stop. and hopefully we can run into Gregg again to get the same stellar service.“

“We went for Father's Day. It was quiet but our waitress was amazing. Super friendly and attentive. Food was good. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Our waitress even gave the Father's some promotional T-shirts and drink cozies. Very nice of her. Bonus parking lot as it is very hard to find street parking in the Glebe.“
