Facilities
The Courtyard Restaurant houses three dining rooms on two levels,
with a 60-seat patio in the warmer months. Built entirely of locally
quarried limestone in 1837, each room features original artworks and
tapestries adorning the old stone walls. All of our beautiful dining
rooms are available for our regular restaurant clientele, and can
also be reserved for private parties. From our white linen
tablecloths and fine English china to our heritage atmosphere and
uniformed staff, the Courtyard's warmth, charm and elegance is sure
to impress.
The McArthur Room
The Courtyard's largest room, our McArthur Room is located on the
2nd floor, and is considered our main dining room for our restaurant
clientele. With its 25 foot ceiling, old beams and stone walls it is
also the perfect setting for your business or social event of 50 or
more guests. The room is entirely carpeted, with an impressive
tapestry covering one wall and three deep-set windows overlooking
the Byward Market.
