Arnprior's only gastropub — scratch kitchen, 20+ local craft beers on tap, live music Saturdays.
Lumbertown Ale House sits at 123 John Street N in downtown Arnprior, operating as the town's only Feast On–certified gastropub. The certification signals a formal commitment to sourcing from local Ontario farmers and suppliers, which shapes a scratch kitchen menu built around ingredients from the surrounding region.
The cooking is pub-casual but made with care. Standout menu items include hand-pattied bison and beef burgers alongside beer-battered fish and chips, all prepared in-house. The bar pours more than 20 Ontario craft beers on tap, giving beer-focused travelers a legitimate reason to linger beyond a single pint. Live music runs every Saturday evening, adding atmosphere that distinguishes the place from a standard post-round stop.
For golfers passing through the Ottawa Valley corridor, Arnprior's downtown location makes Lumbertown a practical and comfortable option for a meal before checking in or after finishing a round. The gastropub format — relaxed seating, substantial food, strong local beer list — suits the unhurried pace of a golf road trip.
