I’m really pumped that they brought brunch back! This place is family friendly and sensitive to allergens. The prices are good and the portions are generous. Since it’s a bar they don’t have specialty coffee and it’s not easily accessible since there are stairs to go down.

EDIT* OWNER/MANGENMENT TEAM NEVER GOT BACK TO ME TOLD ME THEY WERE GOING TO LOOK INTO IT BUT I GUESS NEVER DID. REGRET SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS & SUPPORTING BAD PEOPLE/BUSINESSES ETHICS.

The services that I’ve received was not up to par & could use some improvement. (this was the third time I’ve came here & received declining service 2 of the 3). I hope next time I could get better service because i love the roast beef & don’t want to be treated as an UNDERVALUED CUSTOMER

Thank you

EDIT*

Went for Sunday dinner tonight, I had same ongoing problem with same exact server. She spoke with one of my guests that she knew as we were leaving and said I was rude & left with out paying which that was a lie. Very unprofessional and unpleasant as i had to hear this from my dinner guests. I don’t think this establishment cares for my business and I won’t be coming back cause that is clearly what they want. Not my loss but it’s sad I can’t be treated like a regular patron

ITS A SHAME BECAUSE THEIR SUNDAY DINNER SPECIAL IS GOOD BUT SERVICE TO COLORED PEOPLE IS BAD.

Stopped in at the Lieutenant’s Pump for breakfast and it was spot on. The plate came with fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, sausage, toast, breakfast potatoes, and a side of fresh fruit salad. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted fresh. Service was attentive and friendly, which made the whole experience even better. Solid place for a hearty breakfast.

New favourite breakfast in Ottawa. The service was friendly and quick. The menu had something everyone could choose from and so many tasty looking options. The potatoes were perfectly crispy and the fruit salad was a fresh touch! Great portions for a good price. We sat on the patio which was lovely.

We dropped by the Pump yesterday for the wing special. We met some people at the bar. Very friendly crowd.
The wings were decent, and certainly nothing to complain about when considering the fact that they were half off. I chose their hot honey Cajun sauce, and it was good. I would order again.
The draught selection here is also really good. A wide variety of different beer types.

What a cool place! The food was amazing and the prices were pretty good, too. The waitresses were great and checked on us a few times. I had the Honey Mustard Crispy Chicken Wrap and my husband went all out with the Double Trouble Super Burger with bacon and cheese. My wrap was one of the best wraps I’ve had and my husband really enjoyed his burger. I had a Watermelon Smash drink which was like a glass of fresh watermelon with a little extra kick. If you are in the area, do yourself a favour and try this place
