NEWS of NOTE:

Coming up this week:

The last Saturday (July 31st) of the month will be a first time appearance by an interesting Ottawa indie group, Graven, that has morphed over the last few albums from a five man electrical band to a three piece acoustic trio featuring a singer-songwriter, a banjo player and a slide/lead guitarist on a resonator guitar...(July 31st, 8:30pm)

There will be no Open Stage this Sunday (August 1st) as we will be closed for the long weekend.

Let us introduce ourselves...

the branch restaurant is a casual upscale restaurant, art, and music venue in Old Town Kemptville, Ontario, the Ottawa valley’s fastest growing community.  It is a home for well traveled comfort food and a rendezvous for global flavour and local colour.  It is owned and operated by proven restaurant stalwarts, including an internationally practiced published chef and three experienced servers, two of which are restaurant management degree holders.  the branch restaurant welcomes the community with upscale casual service and fair prices, and invites the world with a forward thinking attitude about organic, sustainable and locally sourced foods, including meats and dairy products.  When buying from abroad, as those who live in cooler climates must do, we will choose only farmers and companies who adhere to strict organic standards, because we support the idea of community on a global scale. 

We are a host and a home to those who seek and produce visual, culinary and musical arts, and we will always seek new ways to instil our space with a sense of fun, creativity and taste.
