Welcome to Aroma Meze The first of its kind in Canada! Come and enjoy “Meze” the food that reflects the way of life in Greek culture. Meze…an eating style, ancient in origin, favored in Greece and the Mediterranean. Now, with a globally inspired menu, come to Aroma where eating is a hospitality and a celebration.
The word “Aroma” literally means spice in Greek. Aroma is a combination of what we taste and what we smell and is a sensation, which is difficult to separate from flavor. Without our sense of smell, our only taste sensations would be sweet, sour, salty and bitter. The aroma contributes to the flavors we discern on our plates.

Pubs may not sound ideal for a family meal, but many – like Lowertown Brewery – cater to the kiddos. Children can choose a burger, breaded fish or chicken fingers from the kid’s menu, or regular items like poutine, kettle chips or nachos. In the meantime, parents can dig in to dishes like smoked beef brisket or beer-brined chicken, accompanied by one of Lowertown’s own craft beers brewed on-site. In the warmer months, grab a table on their large patio – a perfect spot for people-watching in the ByWard Market area.
