Pelican Seafood Market & Grill

Our Story

• The Pelican remains family-owned and operated with multiple generations of fishmongers involved in operations on a day-to-day basis.
• The Fish Market opened on Merivale Road back in 1978 and for over 40 years we have been committed to our founder Gilles Roy’s mission: “to serve our customers: superior quality seafood, friendly service and good value.” Pelican opened in its present location in 1985 and added the restaurant (Grill) in 1996.
• Today Pelican is the gathering place for Ottawa’s South end community that attracts customers from across the city, and is a destination for tourists seeking Ottawa’s best seafood dining experience. Our fresh fish, excellent fare, warm atmosphere and friendly, personable staff keep ‘em coming back.
