Reviewed by: Doug Phillips from Canada, review #3606

When: 2010

The Gastropub opened in September 2006. It is small, very popular with an eclectic group, a good selection of wine and microbrewery beers and an excellent menu.

Directions: In trendy Westboro, in the west end of Ottawa, just before Wellington Street changes into Richmond Road, between Island park Drive and Holland Ave.

The Wellington Gastropub opened in September 2006. We have been there three times in the past year - each dinner an enjoyable experience.

The restaurant is small and up a flight of stairs. The menu changes daily and reflects seasonal variations. On our last visit in November 2010 the choices included a buttercup squash soup and an autumn greens risotto. An interesting feature of the restaurant are the shelves of vegetable preserves made in the kitchen when the produce is in season and used in dishes throughout the winter.

The wine list offers a wide range of choice. Draft beers from local or regional microbreweries are also available. Service is friendly and attentive. The clientele ranges from 20-somethings to gray-haired retirees - I fall into the latter category and I like the Wellington Gastropub very much.

Figure on $60-70 per person, including beverages, taxes and tip.
