Historically working-class housing, the varied fabric of this Ottawa neighbourhood has steadily attracted a dynamic mix of restaurants, bars, shops, and businesses. Located just west of the Downtown core, Hintonburg is known locally for some of Ottawa’s more adventurous businesses, drinking and dining destinations, eclectic shopping, and urban infill that fortify its sense of variety and community. Its concentrated splicing of new, old, shiny, and rough make it unlike any other ottawa hood and a entertaining place for a little wander.
