Bowman's is where quality shines. It's a laid back, relaxed pub with a small menu of pub classics. But this place is definitely a matter of quality over quantity. Everything they have they do exceedingly well. They offer specials in addition to their menu items, as well as different desserts. The staff are fantastic. They always greet you like you're an old friend and their attentive service makes you feel like you're important to them. The bathrooms are small but are always clean and well stocked. I highly recommend their Bowman burger and their dill-icious pickle chips (starter).

This a nice understated bar on Carling. There is parking available on site but I do imagine that it gets busy on wing night. We were 3x in our party. The service was prompt, the beer selection excellent. We had the fish n chip, pulled pork and a kids chicken finger meal. Solid pub fare with some bits of fancy. The food was really delicious. I was impressed with the chicken fingers being made from scratch. All in all recommend and will be back.

Delicious food, great service, and chill atmosphere. We got the Bowman's burger which was awesome and so filling. We also got the chicken wings which were also tasty and big. Would highly recommend and would definitely dine in next time.

Popped by there on a Sunday night in Ottawa. It was quiet as a Sunday is, the server was really nice, the fish tacos were delicious (corn tortillas! Hooray!) and the beer list was great. Patio was cute with warm string lights overhead. We were staying at the hotel a few steps away and I definitely liked the place and would go again. Low key and quality food.

Craving Satisfied!!! It's been awhile that I've been craving for nachos! And thanks to my dear husband he found this restaurant! The nachos is the best So fully loaded. Highly recommend it and if you want to try tacos there's a lot of flavors you can try on. I order pulled-pork and it was good. Thumbs up

Gave them a 20 minute heads up for a table of 21 at 8pm on a Wednesday and was blow away by the service and the food! The server (I think Troy) was a great guy and the food was so good. Best deep-fried pickles I've ever had and the chicken club was a 10/10.
