Why Guests Love This
CRAFT Beer Market is the opposite of a quiet neighbourhood pub — it’s a sprawling beer hall with over 100 taps pouring craft beers from across Canada and beyond. Guests who want variety without committing to one brewery find it ideal: order a flight of four completely different styles for the price of two pints elsewhere. The food menu is substantial and goes well beyond bar snacks, with shareable platters, burgers, and globally inspired mains. The Lansdowne-adjacent location on Bank Street means you can combine it with an Ottawa Redblacks game or a walk through the Glebe. About 15 minutes from Adam’s Airport Inn.
How many beers does CRAFT Beer Market Ottawa have on tap?
