23 Best Sports Bars in Ottawa

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

“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.“

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

“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.“

“I was told years ago, stay away from this place!!! I have since been there many times, great food, cold beer and super nice people. Just like most places, if you look for a problem, you can always find one! Again good place, cold beer and nice people!“

“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!“

“First I have to mention that we had hard time finding the place, because it now has new name - SkyLounge. The place has a very interesting vibe. We've been there for The Duelling Pianos concert, and they delivered. The food was good, especially considering that SkyLounge is a nightclub. I had a hamburger, which was one of the best out there, with fries, which were crisp, and salted just right. My wife had a poutine, which was also very good. Service was fast and very friendly.“

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

“After my previous review, someone reached out to me to apologize for the miscommunication.I've been back a couple times and even had the cauliflower wings on the AYCE wings night.The house hot sauce is great, and the local beers are really great (shout out to the Limerick Stout - I lived in Limerick for a couple years and have even reached out to Evergreen to compliment them on a good quality Irish stout!)All the staff are super friendly and attentive and the energy is incredible during the Sens games.Happy to have this place local to my new apartment!

Vegetarian options: Not many vegetarian options, only the cauliflower wings, a salad, and nachos as far as I can recall. Nachos were good if maybe a bit pricey for the size.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Our server, Dora, made our birthday dinner celebration a memorable family experience.

Kid-friendliness: Dora, our server, made sure our kids had time to play basketball, and other fun recreational games between the different courses of our meal - and topped it off with a delicious birthday brownie! Thank you!“

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

“Came up from Kingston to meet some buddies for Pints, Pool and Nachos... Great Atmosphere and the Nachos were awesome... Follow my page @theygkfoodie“

“10/10 experience with Smoque Shack catering our wedding. They brought their food truck to our venue and then served our dinner family-style. They also stuck around and did our late night snack from the truck. We got a lot of great feedback from our guests that they thought the food was great and that they had more than enough food portions-wise. The timing of our service went really well, and we also liked how the food was presented on the tables. Tyler was hands down the fastest vendor to respond to our emails and questions, too, and accommodated our requested changes with no issues and a great deal of flexibility. We were aiming for comfort food where our guests would feel relaxed, comfortable, and satisfied, and Smoque Shack definitely delivered.“

“Great patio and location!“

“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.“

“great pizza and excellent staff plus one litre mugs of beer it don't get no better“

“If you are looking for great Sunday game-watching ambiance, look no further. This place is the perfect spot. Jordan, the bartender and our server was amazing, kind, friendly and knowledgeable. They had a large selection of drinks from local craft beers to domestic favourites, and even some cool non-alcoholic cocktails for those who want to join in without drinking. Food was delicious, drinks were great and they had every game playing on the TVs.“
