Review from Jason D.

There are lots of bars and pubs in Ottawa. They are often populated by youngish drinkers (over 19 of course!) interested in being seen/picking up/showing off their knowledge of obscure beers or exotic wines. These kind of people cannot be found at the Carleton Tavern. The Carleton is a tavern. It is a simple, honest, working person's drinking joint. No pretence, no faux Irish decor, no gourmet foods, no BS. Just the guys, their lady friends, some sports, and their drinks. It is the kind of place Toby Keith or George Strait would hang out in. And if you have to ask who they are, you probably shouldn't hang at the Carleton. The food is simple pub grub - sandwiches, wings, nachos, potato skins. But, don't feel like it is exclusive. It is a warm, friendly and cozy kind of place. Go there and be yourself.

cheap eats, cheap beer, a great local watering hole.
This place is not classy at all. It's probably the least classy place to be in up-and-coming hintonburg. But the locals are friendly, the beer is cheap, and there is lots of space on the patio and inside.
I think it used to be a place where the women were only allowed on one side and the men on the other, because it is completely divided in half, with separate doors to get into one side or the other (there is a door at the back so you can walk all the way around). There is also two patios, one on one side along Parkdale, and one on the other side (in the alley between the next building).
We went to see the mechanicsville monologues here, which is a yearly set of monologues about hintonburg/mechanicsville/wellington west (which is a name made up by realtors, btw). Great show to watch out for in late November/early December of each year. -

A good, inexpensive menu during the afternoon and evening. A terrific breakfast. Nice daily specials. Great selection of sports on the many tv screens available.
