We hold 1,334 venues in Ottawa — 1,277 places to eat and 57 to stay. That makes it the 2nd-largest of the 1556 towns and suburbs we cover in Ontario, carrying 4% of the region's venues. Nationally it sits 4th out of 6,205 places.

Of the places to eat, 18% are cafés against a national figure of 19%. That is close to the New Zealand norm — Ottawa eats roughly the way the country does. The full split is 230 cafés, 491 restaurants, 467 takeaways, 39 bars and 50 pubs.

924 of the 1,277 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (125), pizza (98) and burger (68). Relative to the rest of the country Ottawa is unusually strong on ethiopian, african and spanish — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.

On the practical detail: 411 publish opening hours (31%), 83 are recorded as step-free, 83 have outdoor seating and 13 flag vegetarian options. Coverage here is better than the 21% national average, so the hours below are more reliable than most.

For a bed, Ottawa runs to 57 listings — 33 hotels, 5 motels, 15 b&bs and guest houses, 3 hostels and 1 holiday parks and campgrounds. Hotels dominate, at 58% of the town's accommodation.

Places of a similar size — Vaughan (1,187), Mississauga (1,099), Vancouver (1,712) and Edmonton (917) — average 4% accommodation. Ottawa runs at 4%, much the same, so on this measure it behaves like its peers.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 105 of the 1,334 venues in Ottawa carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
