about us

Elm Tavern offers a modern take on the British pub, shaped by Canadian ingredients, sensibility, and seasonality. It transitions seamlessly from day to night; equally suited to a relaxed lunch, an after-work pint, or a long, unhurried dinner. The menu balances comfort and craft, pairing familiar favourites with thoughtful updates, while a well-considered bar program highlights local beers, classic cocktails, and an approachable wine list.


At its core, Elm Tavern is designed for gathering. The space feels warm and lived-in, with an energy that builds as the day unfolds. Whether you’re meeting friends, hosting colleagues, or settling in for the evening, our experience is grounded in genuine hospitality, where good food, good drink, and easy conversation come together naturally.

URBAN CANADIAN PUB

"Had an amazing experience at the Elm Street Bar and Lounge in the Chelsea Hotel! The food was absolutely delicious—compliments to the chef for every perfectly crafted dish. The cocktails were just as impressive—huge thanks to the bartender for mixing some of the best drinks we’ve had. And of course, a special shoutout to Shovon, who went above and beyond every day with warm, thoughtful service and always seated us at the best table. Can’t wait to return!"

"Amazing food and service.

Located in the hotel, warm cozy atmosphere. Had the BEST short ribs. You could pull the meat apart with just your fork, melt in your mouth. We were seated, drinks in hand and food at our table within 15 minutes of ordering. Oh and the Caffè Americano was perfection!!"
