One of Canada's oldest universities, beautiful campus, on College Hill; red brick New England style, lots of faculties and schools, from engineering and nursing to arts and languages
Newly built conference and convention center, opened in 2011; it hosts political conventions and conferences but also receptions, wedding parties and wedding and women shows. Truly multifunctional!
Canada's biggest and most famous cenotaph honoring armed forces who passed away in battle; next to it is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Every Remembrance Day the square around it is packed!
Free tours given all year round. Question Period and most proceedings are open to the public. Visitors must go through metal detectors upon entering. The view from the Peace Tower is astounding
Best medium-sized airport in North America if not the world, and that's not just my opinion. Lots of courteous staff, European destinations include London and Frankfurt, many US and Caribbean flights!
Newest building at UOttawa, with the best croissants in town!!!!
Great atmosphere, tasty Bellinis and decent noodle bowls, same for calamari as appys, though the whole thing can become a bit pricey by the end of the evening
All customers should stop by for a bite, before or after shopping, great pricing for food, wide variety of furniture offerings, their associates are a bit bored; great cinnamon buns!!!!!
A boat load of teas and delicious scones with whipped, butter and jam. Friendly staff too!
Great location in the heart of the distillery district, the music was a bit loud for dinner convos, try their seasonal ales before ordering a drink, the food was varied and very tasty
Amazing brunch options, the eggs in purgatory are very spicy, and their mimosas are exaggeratedly sweet.
Great performing arts venue, students should take advantage of live rush tickets
Fully bilingual university with a wide variety of programs and departments/faculties. Plus great campus smack in downtown Ottawa!
Traditional Scottish pub in downtown Ottawa... There aren't many. Their bangers and mash is delish! Also have a wide Scotch selection for tasting etc
Beckta restaurant focused on small-ish plates (the hanger steak & frites is the biggest portion on the menu); everything is delicious from the cheese&charcuterie boards, to the wide variety of wines
