Relaxed BBQ Spots Around Bells Corners

BBQ Time in Bells Corners

Sharing a barbecue outside is a quietly perfect Canadian way to slow down with friends and family. Kids can run around, someone keeps an eye on the grill, and there’s always another chair to pull up for whoever drops by. It feels informal, welcoming, and easy-going.

In Bells Corners, on the west side of Ottawa, parks and green strips give you plenty of choice for a relaxed cookout. You’ll find picnic tables, benches, and open lawns where people kick a soccer ball around or toss a baseball. Many spots are close to playgrounds, making it simple for parents to keep an eye on the kids while tending burgers or veggie skewers.
