The Beer Store is shutting down operations at its Rideau Street location this fall on Oct. 14.
A spokesperson for the privately owned Ontario chain said it decided not to renew its lease for the downtown Ottawa building at 209 Rideau St. – but didn’t say why.
The tenancy agreement was set to expire on Oct. 30.
When asked, Bill Walker didn’t say whether the Beer Store will open another outlet at a different location in Ottawa or if the company has plans to close other stores in the city.
The Beer Store operates a number of shops in the city of Ottawa, including three others in the downtown area – on Bank Street and Somerset Street in Centretown, and on Selkirk Street in Vanier.
The Beer Store operates more than 450 retail outlets province-wide, according to its website.
