#HolidayOnBank with Royal Oak Pub at 188 and 318 Bank Street

(Because There’s Nothing Like Celebrating with Pride)

 

Besides the fact that Bank is Ottawa’s historic main street, why is Bank Street the best street in Ottawa? The answer is that it has not one Royal Oak Pub, but two in the chain of the most popular pubs in Ottawa. The flagship Oak at 318 Bank Street is in an old historic building, and the newer Royal Oak is at 188 Bank Street. With live music and events throughout the week, both Oaks are a great places to meet with people. Some of the Oak’s best kept secrets: Royal Oak salads, calamari and Indian food are the best.

 

The Royal Oak at 318 Bank Street is an institution. Serving up brews since 1980, the Royal Oak’s flagship location is an authentic British pub experience. The wood panelled walls and the bay windows make it easy for the patrons to step back in time and partake in the heritage that’s so important to the Oak’s founders.

The newer Royal Oak at 188 Bank Street is a great place to meet work colleagues for lunch, or après-work drinks. In the summer, it’s got the best patio in the neighbourhood—great for people-watching and meeting colleagues alike.

Royal Oak is part of historic downtown Bank Street, and accepts Bank Street Gift Cards. Get the card, give the card year-round.
