The bar that entirely changed the way I feel about Ottawa’s night life, which wasn’t good btw ? I never liked night life here so Id always go to Montreal. The vibe at Standard is absolutely perfect. Older age groups than the ones in byward, amazing music, and very hard working staff - Respect for the effort they put on Fridays and Saturdays because it gets absolutely CRAZY. So happy I found this place ?
My husband and I went there for a bite to eat and a drink. The door person was very friendly and inviting. We sat at the bar and were very disappointed with the service. It wasn’t really busy yet and they had 3 servers so there was no excuse for poor service. The food was pretty terrible unfortunately. I won’t go back to The Standard again. Not even for a drink.
Came in not long ago - if the service wasn't great, I'd be leaving a 1 star. Either we came at the worst time (new cook? No food delivery?). Four of us ordered food and appetizers. Not one of the plates I would even consider acceptable to serve. It was as if the plates were leftovers from the night before and they just popped it in the microwave for a few seconds OR food quality isnt their priority . I can't get over how gross it was, not certainly for the price you're paying.Would recommend going for drinks because the atmosphere and service is not bad so im not completely knocking it down but it will be awhile before I give it a go with the food again.
I don’t usually leave reviews. Maybe I should more. I just had to share my experience on St Patrick’s days of all the days. I walked in without a reservation hoping for a table for 5-6 people. I was instantly greeted my a manager (steph? I think … she was sooo nice and petite and played hockey?). She moved tables around and made us welcome and didn’t even stop for one minute to make us feel like an inconvenience. Thank you!!We drank and ate and sang all night and really… we were never without anything we needed because of her,So refreshing to feel actually waited on.Five stars isn’t enough.Thanks hockey girl and thanks standardWhat a great nightWe will all be back ?❤️?
The service was super friendly and quick, absolutely no complaints about the staff. But I have to say the food was unfortunately pretty terrible :( $23 for 5 small chicken fingers and a little side of poutine, and the chicken fingers were barely edible. Biting them was like chewing rubber. Poutine was quite good, but for the price very tiny and I was shocked at the quality of the chicken.
Good, Met my standard(⓿_⓿)
Prices and service are great but the food... not so much.
We were just walking by peacefully and an employee from the restaurant use very vulgar words towards us and wish death upon on. Extremely upsetting, we just walked away and he used more vulgar words. He’s a tall male with shaved head. Sadden to hear should vulgar words for absolutely no reason. I hope his heart becomes more warm from those around him.
I had the super burger and the taste was good but I was expecting better for that price. My friend had a BLT sandwich and his was not fantastic. The chicken curry soup is absolutely delicious but the black bean soup is a bit bland. The staff and the service are very kind and friendly but perhaps overly busy.
My favourite bar! Super fun, and the service is amazing :) I recommend this place to everyone.
