Why Guests Love This
The Lansdowne location gives JOEY something the Rideau branch lacks — a spacious patio overlooking the Rideau Canal, easier parking, and the lively atmosphere of Lansdowne Park on event days. Families appreciate the proximity to the Lansdowne farmers’ market on Sundays, and couples enjoy the patio in warmer months with views across the park. On non-event days, it’s noticeably more relaxed than the downtown location, making it a better fit for guests who want a good meal without the intensity of downtown Ottawa.

They serve the same menu, but the experiences differ. Lansdowne has a larger patio, easier parking, and a more relaxed vibe on non-event days. Rideau is better if you want to be in the centre of downtown. For hotel guests driving from Adam’s Airport Inn, Lansdowne is closer (15 minutes vs. 20) and parking is simpler.
Is there parking at JOEY Lansdowne?
Yes. Lansdowne Park has a large underground parking garage. The first 2 hours are free on non-event days, which is typically enough time for a meal. On game days (Ottawa 67’s or Redblacks), parking fills quickly and rates increase — arrive early or use a rideshare.
Does JOEY Lansdowne have a patio?
Yes. The patio is one of the largest restaurant patios in Ottawa, with views across Lansdowne Park. It’s open from approximately May through October, weather permitting. Patio seats are first-come, first-served and fill up fast on warm evenings — arrive before 6 PM to secure a spot.
What should I order at JOEY Lansdowne?
The menu is identical to all JOEY locations. The salmon sushi bowl, truffle fries, and chicken lettuce wraps are consistent crowd-pleasers. The brunch menu on weekends is excellent — the smashed avocado toast and the lemon ricotta pancakes stand out. Cocktails are well-made and reasonably priced.
