I haven’t been to a Clocktower brew pub in some time. The Westboro location is a busy spot; although, it was quiet today. The staff were very friendly and attentive. I like when staff share the work, waiting on tables together. It shows good management and teamwork. Lunch with friends was a simple affair… three rounds of No. 7 IPA with three Nashville chicken sandwiches. Their craft beer is as good as I remember. The No. 7 IPA is clean and crisp. The chicken sandwich was deliciously seasoned with just enough Nashville sauce without being too much. A side of fresh-cut fries went along nicely. A side of coleslaw would complete this plate and cut some of the grease. No complaints otherwise. I will be back to try something different next time.

They make great craft beer in house and fresh original food served in a comfortable and upbeat atmosphere. Ottawa's longest established full service craft brewery happily serving Ottawa since 1996.
Had a burger with sweet potato fries; pretty good 👍.
Cheese!
Really good outdoor patio with a nice amount of space between tables to not make you feel crowded.
Staff is always nice and polite.
My partner loves the maple bacon wings.

Good food and beer so if you're looking for pub fare this is a pretty decent spot with a lot of space inside and on theor patio.
I had their Brewhouse burger which was quite yummy - more on the spicier side but as someone who likes hot food, it was satisfying. The fries were well cooked too. I felt like the burger could have been a bit bigger for price but then again, I think higher prices are fair given these businesses had an extended period of no-income due to COVID.
My father had the spicy peanut bowl, my mum had the Buddha bowl, and my sister had that cauliflower wings. All around, they seemed satisfied with their food as well. My dad liked the red beer, and after trying it too, I'd agree it was yummy. I ended up purchasing their ESB and Stout so I'm hopeful with those.
I was happy with our visit but do have two things I think could be improved as feedback. I felt the service could have been a bit better (my sister asked for some hot sauce but never got it) but overall did the job quickly to compensate (our food arrived in great time!).
The other thing however was there were a LOT of hornets flying around the patio. This was very distracting and we could see lots of others swatting them away.
Overall I was happy with my experience. Good food and beer, service is fast, and the staff we nice. Definitely sort out the hornet issue though!
The staff here are really warm. We thoroughly enjoyed the food. “Jay” let us try his spicy sauce and it’s the best sauce I’ve ever had with chicken wings! Beware of the heat though! We had dry dusted chicken wings, Brewhouse and Supreme burgers.
We walked in and it wasn’t busy. We were told to seat ourselves. We sat in a booth. I ordered the Cobb salad. My friend ordered the California Buddha bowl. Omg! The salad was delicious! It was tasty! We also had coffees. Our server was super friendly, very laidback. I’d go here again!
I find the menu at the Clocktower to be just a little limited. That’s the only negative thing to say about this location. It is a nice, wide open space, with several rooms that can be rented. I’ve had two or three events here, and they’ve always been great. Their craft beers are quite nice, and if you find something on the menu you like, you’ll likely enjoy it. Outdoor patio is nice. I always enjoy my time here.
As one of the OG craft brew pubs in Ottawa, their selection is a bit dated but solid. Hot chicken sandwich (pictured) was delicious and the staff is always attentive and friendly.
