LOCAL Public Eatery Lansdowne

Reservations are recommended for Friday and Saturday evenings and on game days at TD Place. Weeknight visits are usually fine as walk-ins. The patio fills up quickly on warm summer evenings, so reserve specifically for patio seating if that’s your preference.

LOCAL serves elevated pub fare — think craft burgers, fish tacos, flatbreads, grain bowls, and seasonal features. The menu is broader than a typical sports bar, with solid vegetarian and gluten-free options. Brunch is available on weekends with classics like eggs benedict and avocado toast.

Yes. The space includes shuffleboard tables and other bar games that give it a social, interactive energy without crossing into full arcade territory. The games area is near the bar and works well for groups who want something to do between rounds.

It’s one of the best options. LOCAL is inside the Lansdowne complex, directly adjacent to TD Place stadium. On game days (Ottawa Redblacks CFL, Ottawa 67’s OHL), expect a lively atmosphere and larger crowds. Arriving 90 minutes before kickoff or puck drop secures a table without issue.

LOCAL Public Eatery is located at 825 Exhibition Way in the Lansdowne complex, approximately 10 km from Ottawa International Airport (YOW). From Adam’s Airport Inn (7 minutes from the terminal), drive north on Bank Street. The total drive takes about 15 minutes. Lansdowne has a paid parking garage on-site.
