Brookstreet Hotel Corporation

Discover Ottawa's top hotel bars

The stand-up bass and Miles Davis portrait at the entrance should be clue enough: Kanata’s Brookstreet Hotel bar is huge and all about jazz. Photos of icons such as Oscar Peterson line the walls; trumpets (and a washboard) perch atop the liquor shelf; a red piano graces the corner stage; live jazz is scheduled seven nights a week. Even the signature cocktail is blue. The menu includes margherita pizzas and a club sandwich made with maple bacon and pulled chicken. The sleek, black furniture, scattered around a circular bar, permits views of the upscale hotel’s golf course.
