Patty Boland's is always a fun place to come to, although, on the weekends it gets really crowded. I've come here after school projects with groups, birthdays, and just hanging out. It's a feel good place to just chill with friends and listen to some local music upstairs. I love pubs, and this is one of the best ones that I have been to so far in Ottawa. I've been when it's almost dead and when it's crazy-packed, and no matter what, it's always fun.
