Tavern on the Hill – Great Views, Forgettable Food – Average EV Score: 3.4/10

Tavern on the Hill sits in one of the best locations in Ottawa, perched near Major’s Hill Park with a view that rivals most patios in the city. The ambiance is casual and lively, especially on a Friday night. Expect big crowds, upbeat vibes, and unfortunately—music so loud you’ll need to raise your voice just to talk to the person next to you. It’s a fun place to hang out, grab a drink, and enjoy the scenery, but if you’re here for the food, you might leave disappointed. The menu feels like an afterthought: overpriced, underwhelming, and not worth the hype.
