The House Rules
Pull Up a
Seat.
Tucked into Ottawa's ByWard Market, Speakeasy is an elegant restaurant and live-music venue where the lights stay low and the night runs long.
Internationally inspired plates, craft cocktails poured with prohibition-era swagger, live performances every evening, and a candlelit room that feels like a secret worth keeping. Pull up a chair. This must be the place.
When we are open
Kitchen and bar, six nights a week. Live music from 7 PM.
At the door
The man in the
yellow suit.
Every speakeasy needs a doorman. Ours doesn't ask for a password. He just grins, holds the door, and points you down the red carpet.
If you spot him on York Street, you've found the right place. Say hello, get a photo, and head inside. The candles are already lit.
