    About

    Rich in history, young at heart

    Zoe’s, located within the walls of the Fairmont Château Laurier, offers a captivating new 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 featured artwork, including six original Karsh photographs in the Reading Lounge leading to the bar.

    Our varied menu includes sharing and small plate options, as well as an elaborate cocktail menu – be sure to try our signature Statesman for that Instagram moment.
