Barrymore's Music Hall, Art deco music venue and theater in downtown Ottawa, Canada.

The three-story building features gold mouldings, high ceilings, and a spacious dance floor in the former Imperial Theatre space at 323 Bank Street.

Built in 1914 as the Imperial Theatre for silent films, the venue transformed into Barrymore's Music Hall in 1978 under Gordon and Sherry Rhodes' ownership.

During the 1980s, the venue hosted early performances by bands such as U2, REM, and Radiohead, establishing its place in Canadian music history.

The venue operates primarily as a nightclub with themed events, including 1980s retro night on Sundays and 1990s retro night on Thursdays.

The building maintains original architectural elements from its silent film era, including decorative gold mouldings and ornate ceiling details from 1914.
