They sure don’t make ‘em like they used to. The Elmdale House Tavern is one of those places that will remind of a place long forgotten… the kind of place where you may walk in a stranger, but will leave with solid friends. As one of the few remaining “real” taverns in Ottawa, the Elmdale is like a second home to many in Hintonburg, the people inside like Family. Live Music, Cold Beer, Good peeps…what more do we need?

Come on out for a cold one…or two. See you at the ‘Dale!
