Zoe's
Rich In History, Young at Heart
About
Zoe’s, located within the walls of the Fairmont Château Laurier, offers a captivating bar experience while serving up a side of local history. Named after Sir Wilfrid Laurier’s wife, Lady Zoe, this space was transformed from a concert hall and reintroduced as a Bar in the late 1980’s. It quickly became one of Ottawa’s most popular gathering places. Today, the room is contemporary chic and remains equally impressive with its big bold chandeliers, unique details and original artwork, including six Karsh photographs in the Reading Lounge leading to the bar.
The menu, inspired by ingredients from the region, includes share plates and hearty entrées. The cocktail list presents reimagined classics, as well as showstopping creations– try our signature Statesman for that Instagram moment.
