Clocktower Brew Pub

What Clocktower Brew Pub does

Clocktower Brew Pub is a privately held craft brewery and full-service restaurant operator headquartered in Ottawa, Ontario. Founded in 1996, the company operates two physical brew pub locations in the National Capital Region — one in New Edinburgh (422 MacKay Street, since 2002) and one in Westboro (418 Richmond Rd), the latter featuring the largest patio in the neighbourhood and two private event rooms. Its product offering centres on eight in-house brewed craft beers (including Reap & Sow Kölsch, Berried Treasure Raspberry Wheat, Peak Pacific West Coast IPA, Break of Day Hazy IPA, Snarling Bully Bitter, Rouge Rule Red Ale, Double Barrel Brown, and Chimney Sweep Black Stout), paired with a fresh original food menu that includes weekend brunch and a dedicated Sunday–Thursday happy hour.

Revenue is generated through three channels: dine-in service at both locations, takeaway cold tall cans of all draught beers (available 11AM to 10PM seven days a week), and delivery orders via third-party platforms Skip The Dishes, Uber Eats, and DoorDash. The business serves the local Ottawa consumer and visitor market in a horizontal segmentation model with no enterprise anchor customers. The technology base is conventional for the category — traditional brewing production methods, a Squarespace-hosted marketing website, and outsourced delivery logistics. Marketing is community-led and relies on organic Instagram content, an email newsletter, and local engagement (pet-friendly patios since 1996, trivia nights). No headcount, revenue, funding, ownership, or management information is publicly disclosed in the source material.
