Great atmosphere, great server, big portion of fish and chips,all worth it. Amazing cool crowd� Convenient location. Its all a winwin.
Had an early dinner here yesterday. Loved everything about our experience. Service was great, efficient and friendly. Food was very good, I had the salmon plate with rice, my husband had the jambalaya, spicy and delicious. Sat outside on the patio. Tables are close together but we were fine. Will be back!
Nice place for some good evening dinner and drinks. We went with a bunch of office colleagues and our server was quite nice and she did not shy away from offering her advice when asked. All the suggestions were outstanding - and we loved the evening. Would love to go back and dine again.
Decent pub fare as well as a good selection of drinks. It's one of the first pubs that you see when you enter the market and has a pretty large patio space for the summer. The drinks are pricey, as any place in the market. It's not my first choice for drinks, but it's not terrible. The nachos here are quite good, but they don't top the nachos at Blue Cactus.
The Byward Market where this pub is located is buzzing with energy - especially when the sun is shining. They have a beautiful patio adorned with big hanging baskets of blooming flowers - which really puts you in a summer mood. Not only is this a great spot to sip a pint while people-watching, they have great wings! Try them with the Salt and Pepper dry rub, or if you like them saucy, the Guinness BBQ is quite nice.
Their fish and chips is quite decent and so is the beer. The cocktails, not so much. This is a good place to start if you are bar hopping or if you are just having a chill night and only want to grab drinks with friends and head home early.
Great ambience. Had apps on a quiet Sunday night. Shared a poutine and a French onion soup Service was fast and the food was great: will definitely come back. Prices are reasonable also.
My dad & I from Calgary had lunch. Stephanie was great & burger was tasty.

Outstanding weekday lunch. I do not understand the negative reviews below. My partner and I received prompt and courteous service. The food was exception. Ordinary? Not in the least. We have experienced ordinary and we know what it is. -- I had the lamb sandwich (St. James' something) with fries and she had the smoked salmon sandwich with tomato basil bisque. Both were outstanding. Our only regret is that we live six hours away from Ottawa. - rbs, Dundas ON
Fish n Chips!. Everytime I've gone I've gotten the fish and chips, so I can't comment on much else. The fish is great and you really get a huge portion for the price. Only gripe would be there's a bit too much batter. Great atmosphere and service each time I've been.
Good burger really good shepherds pie service fantastic as always. What's with the crappy un ripe tomato in the burgers guys. Prep guys should not have cut that and line guys should not have served them over all very good
Good service, decent food. I went here for dinner a few weeks ago - My server was great and very friendly, but there was a lot of weird yelling back and forth from the back, to the bartender and the servers.
I ordered the chicken curry with rice, and I was mostly just 'meh' about the food. Small portion, no spice, sauce was very wet. Rice was cooked perfectly. It wasn't terrible, but I definitely wouldn't order it again.
Had the peanut butter dessert, and it was delicious but the menu was a bit misleading - I was expecting something with peanut butter cups and chocolate sauce, and I got a sliver of cheesecake with a hint of PB. Not what the menu says, but definitely good!
Drinks were great, lots of good beer on tap, and it's a gorgeous view of the market as the sun goes down. Good place for after work beers, for sure.
I stopped here for a quick drink and bite to eat today. The service was fast and did a very good job as far as the Market goes. I ordered the summer sausage plate and it did not disappoint. Generous amount of diced and sauteed vegetables came with the plate. Good experience, would go back again.
Love the atmosphere, the staff, the waitress we had was amazing. Food is always great. One of my favorite places in the market to go. The entertainment was fantastic. My meal was the spicy chicken Curry and it was so tasty and not over the top spicy it was perfect.
Nice spot for drinks. Ended up also ordering onion rings although we had just eaten but they looked so good!! Did not dissapoint. Service was really good too!
I was a bit cold at some point and had a nice cup of tea.
Place was really busy and noisy but it is what you can expect for a pub.
Beautiful place. It was walking distance from our hotel, so I can't say something about a parking, but it seems to me that parking is a trouble in this area.
My husband had a short ribs- yammy!!! Best dish in our table of 6. I had a smoked duck- well done, but I didn't like the sous- not good choice for me. Our friends were happy with their dishes. We enjoyed our food, drinks, beautiful flowers, atmosphere, very nice weather and our community of course 😊. We had a very good time here. Thanks for helpful staff.
First time here with my friend. We love it. The place amazing and full of flowers 🌸, amazing service and great environment. A lot if choices for Irish food.

The waiter was cool and nice and I only had sweet potato fries and non-alcoholic Beck's. I'll probably review again later after a proper meal.
Oh I forgot about the live music. I wish it wasn't so loud or that the equipment transmitted the sound better. I'm sure the musician was good but it was uncomfortable listening.
