Ottawa's Hard Rock Cafe is situated in the heart of the historic ByWard Market. The Hard Rock Cafe has kept the original concept of North American fare, which has made it famous since it's opening in London on June 14, 1971. Our classic style hamburgers, salads, soups and decadent desserts continue to be our specialty but over the years our menu has been enhanced to entice any palate. Today we have a full selection of entrees from chicken and ribs to pasta, steaks and seafood. We also carry a full line of Hard Rock Cafe Ottawa fashion and collector items, available only in our Rock Shop. For your viewing pleasure the Hard Rock Cafe offers an unparalleled collection of Rock 'Roll Treasures decorating our walls. According to Sotheby's the Hard Rock Cafe has been called the "Smithsonian of Rock n Roll". Come on down and join us at the Rock!
