About
Daniel O'Connell's has been on Wellington Street West since 2002 — a neighbourhood Irish pub attached to West Park Bowling, making it one of Ottawa's true pub-and-bowl combos. The pub has a deck for warmer months and a steady rotation of live events through the week.
The Thursday traditional Irish music session is the big draw — it usually kicks off around 9 or 9:30pm and typically pulls 15–20 musicians into the small room for an intimate trad session leaning Irish with Ottawa Valley and Cape Breton thrown in. Wednesdays bring open mic nights.
