Mary, our server, was friendly and took good care of us.

Located just outside of security at the airport, the Maritime Ale House was like a breakfast oasis…read morebefore flying to Ottawa after a long night shift. I was hoping for a solid (re, greasy and satisfying) breakfast that was better than the fast food options across the court, and while it still was, it wasn't all that impressive. Going with their breakfast special, I chose sausage for my meat and my eggs over easy. After a short wait while I read my free Globe and Mail, my meal arrived as airport staff trickled in to have breakfast before their shifts started. While there were an impressive four sausage links, they looked like they had been sitting on the back of the grill for much too long and had gone beyond golden brown to resemble what Snooki's skin will likely look like in a decade - wrinkly and an unnaturally dark colour. My eggs are cooked perfectly, but they seem like they may have spent too much time in the walk in, as the whites are obviously loose and the egg in general is a little bland. The only saving grace of the meal are the tasty and crisp home fries as well as a little slice of watermelon which makes me feel marginally less guilty about the (un)healthiness of my meal. While it may have been a better choice than Burger King, I was left feeling like I should have gone for a breakfast biscuit at Tim Horton's and saved myself a few dollars and the experience of the Snooki sausages.

A small store in one corner near the entrance/exit to the terminal, right next to the elevator to…read morethe Maple Leaf Lounge. It offers wines, beers and spirits from local producers in Nova Scotia. Wine is the predominant product on offer, but there is enough to cater to all tastes. Staff area wonderful pleasant and helpful, quick to offer guidance, but also to step back and let you be if you're just browsing. I've bought numerous items from here over the years, some better than others, so if you don't know the winery or brewery, it can be hit & miss, but to be fair, often that's part of the fun and experience of trying something new. If you do buy multiple bottles of wine, they have solid cardboard carriers for you which will offer a little bit of protection on your flight.

On my way up to Ottawa to see my wife, I saw that Liquid Assets had opened since I was at the…read moreairport in April, selling Nova Scotian-made adult beverages. This lovely shop is located just past security, and predominantly features a cool map of Nova Scotia on one wall, with about a dozen local products mounted on the wall and pointing out where they came from. It's a nice touch that brings home where these delicious libations are from, although it does take up half of their wall space, so I'm conflicted between the cool factor and having more selection. While wine takes up the largest portion of shelf space, there is still a good amount of craft beer, as well as spirits and a few ciders as well. The staff member was really friendly and knowledgeable, and I ended up getting a bottle of wine and a couple bottles of cider, all of which were wrapped up in paper to protect them in their carry-on travels. It's not a duty-free shop, so any flyer can purchase their wares. Liquid Assets is a fantastic idea that will add value to the burgeoning local alcohol industries, and enhances the airport as a whole. If YHZ can get a good restaurant, they'll be set!

They have 12 beers on tap, and various beers on cans and bottles. Food seems to be mostly sharable appetizers. We tried: - Propeller Galaxy (6.5% $7.6 for 16oz): hazy IPA style, simple, a hint of hoppy. - Trailway Voyager (7.8% $7 for 12 oz): like a hazy IPA, citrus, sweet, smooth. Bartender is attentive and chill atmosphere. Overall: great place to grab a drink and hangout.

Too bright, no real design or "comfort" feeling and the large windows seem to just take away the pub feel and you feel like you are in a fish tank. Need to darken it down a bit, add some decor, and add a proper sound system that's not Q104 or TV's playing sports with no sound. I understand it is a new startup and they're also finding their way. These improvements are likely to come down the road, and I hope it's soon. I want this to be my hideaway.

They have 9 taps for beer and have quite the selection. Currently they have 'good grief charlie' a brown ale and 'wheat in the knees' which were all amazing. They have a tiny kitchen with a small but heart menu of salads, chilli cheese dogs and flatbreads (and a few other things). The staff are absolutely amazing, knowledgeable and will do anything for you, as someone who prefers a root beer to beer - they went out of their way to get me a sprite (which blew my mind). My partner absolutely enjoyed this lovely time. They also have a few games to play! Highly recommend this little brewery, it's small but it is mighty delicious.

Love this place!…read more Been going since it opened last December and it's always a great experience. Follow them on Facebook and Twitter and I think Instagram too - so you know their hours, what's new on tap, what's on the guest taps (buy local!). Trivia night #2 was a success! We ordered pizza this time from Rocky Lake Pizza across the street and omg that was the perfect meal paired with the perfect Off Track brew. I had the Sessional IPA on tap 8 (I forgot the name) and it was soooo tasty that I had two (not like me). The rest of my party went for the Damn Skippy (peanut butter mmmmm - you have to try it). Flights are a way to sample several brews - usually I do that. Love the merch! Normally, I don't buy this stuff from places but I have several items already and I'm most definitely getting the zip up hoodie next time. Lots more I can say, like... Dog friendly establishment. Projector for watching "the sports". Clean. Friendly faces - who will explain the various brews on tap. No kitchen - but you can bring your food there - ask the guys, they'll be happy to help.
