The Highlander Pub Closes After 18 Years As Byward Market Staple

Ottawa’s only single malt scotch bar took to Twitter yesterday to announce its closing.

 

The pub, with its distinctive Scottish aesthetic, has sat proudly across from the Rideau Centre for over 18 years. In their twitter post, the pub didn’t mention a reason for the closure.

 

Thank you to all of our staff, friends, customers, and musicians for an amazing 18 years! #ottnews #highlanderpubottawa pic.twitter.com/pqCAMrRazn
