Established since 1935, The Carleton Tavern is the neighbourhood pub and sports bar with an affordable relaxed atmosphere!
Essentially, this is the finest example of a tavern bar in all of Ottawa that has been left in its original form. The food and drink are what you would expect from your average drinking tavern. Bar fare ranges from a very well made basket of fries all the way up to hamburger or hot-dog platters. They do offer lunch specials. Of course, there are the quarts. For those that are not aware, these are bottles of beer as tall as an average person’s forarm. All in all, the place is everything you would expect from an originally configured tavern.
One of the oldest active taverns in Ottawa is the Carleton Tavern, Tunney’s pasture area, Armstrong st and Parkdale Ave. There is great charm in this building and it would tell many stories if it could talk. The old style wooden chairs and walls just feel right when throwing back a few pints of beer while have a good howl with friends. Free live local music on Friday and Saturday nights and lots if people dance to classic rock tunes. The prices are excellant for the beer and pub grub. The Carleton also hosts special events like the Superbowl, Halloween and the odd office party. The owner has good spirit and heart. He provides meals for people hard on their luck during less busy customer times. Highly recommend to those just looking for a good time, have a few beers and good times with friends.

If you're looking for an old school feel, this is your place. Prices on food are amazing for today's rates! It's worth a checkout, especially on Friday and Saturday night w live bands!!!!
Definitely a unique experience. Old 1930s building meets modern pub menu.Honest prices, great staff, confusing entrance way. No complaints here. Bring your friends here to either confuse them or convince them you're a scene kid.
Love the old-school pub vibe and the food is that same mentality. You can feel the history and I hope it never changes. The prices are so reasonable and this is a place I'd hold reunions and parties.
A great “neighborhood” spot to enjoy some great home style cooking at affordable prices… They still serve “quarts” of beer and have some great beer on taps available too! A varied menu ensures there’s something for everyone. Occasional live music on weekends sounds amazing! Come and enjoy a part of Hintonberg history at this staple of the neighborhood since 1936! I’m the third generation of Carleton Place patrons… and it’s always pleasant, offering excellent food with efficient served with service a smile. Drop in for a beer or excellent home style food, inside or on their large patio along Parkdale Street!
