10 Best Bars

Alora

Alora is a relatively new restaurant and bar located in the Byward market.

Alora offers an elevated restaurant & cocktail bar experience that transforms into a nightclub-ish venue as the night goes on. Their beautiful rooftop bar is the place to be to enjoy the hot summer weekends. Ottawa only has a handful of rooftop bars, so this is certainly something that helps set Alora apart from most places. 

Their extensive liquor selection allows the talented bartenders at Alora to create intriguing, delicious, beautiful cocktails for their guests. But the food is the show-stopper at Alora with their shearable places served on huge wooden boards. This is a great place to go with a group of friends.
