Irene's Pub Restaurant — Restaurant in Ottawa

Here is why I give them 1 star. I have been here several times for live music and gets there early to get front seats so that I can see the band play up close with no distractions right? WRONG!!! Once music starts the people seating behind moves and stand (Not dance, but stand and watch the show as you can see in the photos attached) right in front of the stage, blocking the view of everyone seating on chairs. Now if this happened once I would say that's alright. But it has happened every single time I have been there to watch a show. How can this be fair. The owners for some reason don't see anything wrong. My guess is they are actually happy to have as many people up there. (Many people more money) I find this to be unacceptable.

What a spectacular gem situated in the Gleeb since 1985 in a historic building on Bank St. This dynamic hotspot showcases an diverse selection of live music 2-3 times a week. Alongside a thoughtful menu that delivered beautifully prepared meals (I witnessed a packed dining room), the scotch is top shelf as is the scotch menu for your contintued education. Suprisingly the elixir of the finest swiss coffee machines and coffee in the world are presented to the lucky patrons of the pub. What more would you want in a pub? Oh yes, Irene's Pub shares the building with a barber shop, a cereal bar and several other professional offices. Enjoy my friends, as we certainly did and plan to return as soon as we have the pleasure of...
