The small homey bar/grill was pleasant surprise ! Situated in the basement in a room with no windows and with one server who also tended bar , we weren’t sure what to expect . However the service was excellent and the food was as well . We were planning on eating most meals there . First meal I ordered a burger figuring that it would tell a lot . The lettuce and tomato were fresh ; the cheese was a fine cheddar . It was one of the best burgers I have ever had . Breakfast was great ! The grilled chicken with Brie and cranberry aioli was really good . Our room was clean and the bed comfortable . It is very convenient to the Ottawa Civic hospital and the Civic Heart Institute . Taxi to the hospital, with tip , was $10. We would stay there again .
