Neat microbrewery in an industrial part of town. They have 12 different beers with 8 on tap (the…read morerest in cans). It's mostly a brewery so they only have some light snacks like nuts, soft baked pretzels, and beef jerky, don't expect to get a meal here. However, they allow you to bring in your own food. There are quite a number of tables. They also have some picnic benches out front. They sell branded merchandise as well (glasses, shirts, etc.). As per their name, their decor is bicycle themed. I'm not a beer lover, but I did enjoy their Margarita Gose, which was light and a bit salty and tasted not that beery, if you know what I mean, lol. Free parking at the front of the brewery.

My friends and I were so excited to spend time at Flora since we had heard so many great things…read moreabout it since we left Ottawa in 2018. Parking was easy to find, and one of the girls even walked over from their place. When we entered, we spent a few minutes in the first room, where it appeared walk-ins could purchase beer to takeaway. We waited to see if we needed to be sat by a server, but, nobody came to check on us, so we meandered past the several men purchasing beer to go. When we made our way up the stairs, passing multiple staff, we were abruptly greeted by a staff member who, was not kind to us. She let us know that we made a mistake by not waiting to be seated, and she seemed quite disgruntled that we had made our way this far. We tried to explain that nobody helped us and that men had covered the sign that she referenced to wait to be seated, and we did not see it. She interrupted and did not let us explain. Finally, she took us to a dark table upstairs. We asked to be moved since it was, very dark, and not the vibe. Thankfully, the server that took care of us was kind, but, we were surprised to not be allowed to order flights. It's a brewery... this should be basic for new guests. But, she was great and allowed us to try tastes of brews before we could order. We were at Flora for a relaxing evening, so our group read our books for an hour or two to decompress after a busy week of travel. I ordered the burger, and, was surprised with how many potatoes were on the side. Given that the burger is at $20, I would recommend removing half of the potatoes to drop the price down a few dollars. Everyone in my group would have ordered one if it had been smaller and cheaper. Again, it was strange that they did not offer any coat hanging area, and, the initial experience here really left a bad taste for us. The one Ottawa local who was with us was shocked at the experience, given that she had been here before, and said that she would not return again.

There was plenty of seating and it felt super cozy. It was a friendly and welcoming place I would love to visit again when in Ottawa.

The wooden tables and decor give it a really nice vibe. The beer and food are ordered separately. The bartender was really nice and gave good insight into their beers and their specials. My wife and I each ordered a pint. The marzen was great, it was nice to have as it is generally hard to find this beer style. I can't recall the other beer we got but it was a bit higher abv, but still had malty flavor. The food was a hit too. We got the pretzel and the schnitzel platter. I was a bit confused by the cranberry, but it worked really well with the meat. It was a pretty large portion, perfect for sharing. We opted for the salad instead of fries, and it was a good choice. Fresh greens and lightly dressed, perfect on a hot day. The schnitzel was well cooked, nice and tender for the most part, though the ends were a bit over cooked and chewy. Mixing the lemon and cranberry on it was delightful, but the schnitzel was quite good on its own. The person cooking was really friendly and made sure we were taken care of.

We also shared some pierogies and they were standard fare. Service was quick and friendly.

It was a rainy and dreary day so no one could sit outside and there's somewhat limited seating indoors. I ordered an IPA and a margharita pizza.

The bar maids and servers were so good about keeping my water full and gave me extra napkins - it's the little things, ya know? I messed up the til machine when closing my tab, but the server handled it swiftly and helpfully.

The Short Version: Local microbrewery that brews beer and…read morealso makes flavoured seltzer under the name City Seltzer. A few creative beer flavours. The Long Version: I'm not much of a beer drinker, although my husband is. Luckily this microbrewery not only makes beer but they also make seltzer, and I love seltzer! Lol. Their seltzer flavours are limited, so I've tried most of them. I've tried the Berry Whip, Cool Melon and Orange Cream. They occasionally have limited edition flavours and I recently tried the Tiger Fruit one (kiwi and mixed berries). I find that most of their core seltzer flavours are pretty ordinary and not as creative as their beer flavours. Like they have an Earl Grey Marmalade beer and they had a chocolate chip pecan cookie-flavoured beer. I wish they had more creative seltzer flavours. I would totally drink an Earl Grey Marmalade seltzer! Lol. Ironically, my husband does not like what he calls "weird" beer flavours, so he wasn't crazy about the ones my brother gave him for his birthday, lol, but he likes the more "normal" flavours. Oh, I recently tried their newest flavour, Grape Jelly, and this is my favourite flavour so far. The brewery is in an industrial park. They have seating and have a limited food menu, mostly snacks. They have a corner where you can buy cans to-go. Their beers are also available to purchase at the LCBO and their seltzers are available at several retailers like some coffee shops (such as Equator Coffee) and some grocery stores (such as Natural Food Pantry). There is free parking on-site. Review #222 (2025)

Tip: City Seltzer is yummy and sugar-free…read more My review is about the seltzer part of Dominion City Brewing. Its City Seltzer line is awesome. I grew up drinking Original New York Seltzer. The seltzer came in short glass bottles with a colourful label, depending on the flavour that you got. I don't know what happened, but this company died and somehow resurrected itself. I don't see this brand often in my area. In July 2024, I was in Winnipeg at a Giant Tiger. It featured a limited tiger tail flavour in the company's City Seltzer line. Proceeds went to Food Banks Canada. It also had berry whip and city citrus varieties. I bought a can of each flavour. I loved them all. Tiger tail had orange, vanilla, and anise flavours. They worked well. It was my first time having anise in a seltzer. It's too bad that it's no longer available. I'd get it again. The berry whip and citrus seltzers were yummy. The fruit and citrus flavours were nice. They weren't in-your-face strong. They were refreshing and perfect. I was in Steinbach and Winnipeg this past summer. Sadly, no tiger tail or any City Seltzer were available at the Giant Tiger locations that I had visited in either city. A few months ago, I was shopping at my local Whole Foods Market. I stumbled across a City Seltzer display. What?! I saw two flavours that I had never seen before: orange cream and cool melon. I grabbed the former to try. I love anything that tastes like an orange creamsicle. This one was so good. I keep dreaming about it. Whole Foods sells City Seltzers in individual cans and a case. I like trying out the former first before I commit to the latter. At this rate, I'd get a case of each flavour available. I still need to try the cool melon. I'm hoping that it makes me feel like I'm at a spa when I drink it. My friend, Jennifer, let me know that this company is in Ottawa. Note to self: I must visit this store the next time I'm in the city. I'm a fan and I want a t-shirt. All the bubbles. No troubles. True. I love this seltzer! (422)
