The iconic Coca-Cola symbol has watched over the corner of 2nd and Walnut since Jack Going and S.E. Elmore established a home for the Ottawa Coca-Cola Bottling Company in 1941. Their building brought refreshment and enjoyment to the friendly midwestern community. The large floor to ceiling windows allowed spectators to observe the Coca-Cola bottling process.
In the years to follow, this historic building continued to support and welcome the community in a variety of fashions from a local Town and Country Supply store to an Antique Mall and soda shop. As time passed the hint of historic origins were covered by "modernization" and sadly overlooked.

We had our wedding here in May of 2021. It was set for December of 2020, but had to be canceled last minute due to Covid. The owner is so amazing, and helpful, and willing to work with us, and let us use the big space when we paid to use the smaller space. The entire venue is absolutely gorgeous and well worth the price. Which the price itself is a lot cheaper than other wedding venues we had looked into. There are different ways to set up the bar and different alcohol packages to choose from. We chose to do a cash bar, however you can pay for an open bar. They also have upstairs suites for the

We are so happy that we chose to have our wedding at the Bottle House, so where do we begin?! We chose the Bottle House for both the ceremony and reception because it was a beautiful local venue. It could easily accommodate a larger wedding or event, but it was perfect for the number of people we were expecting. The venue itself required very little decoration. We had centerpieces on each table and some small decorations on some side tables, but other than that there wasn’t anything we added.
Our wedding came during the COVID-19 pandemic but Jen and the Bottle House staff were great to work

We had our wedding at The Bottle House on November 9, 2019, and we are still getting compliments on our venue! This place is perfect - the atmosphere, the decor, genuinely, just everything. The staff there is what really made it perfect for us. Everyone we worked with was such a delight. Working with Jen leading up to the wedding, though, made the experience so, truly wonderful! Jen was so thorough, helpful, accommodating, caring and compassionate throughout the whole process. Planning a wedding/reception is a lot, but having Jen at The Bottle House made things SO smooth, positive and enjoyable

We chose the Bottle House for our wedding reception and it was beautiful. The venue is stunning, and they were one of the only places we toured that actually had space for 200 guests and a dance floor. We scheduled multiple meetings to see the space, then again a few weeks before the wedding. I had questions along the way which were responded to promptly, I felt they did a great job staying in touch with us and helping guide us through the process.
Day of the wedding Jen arrived at 10am for us to setup, I’m so thankful she was there as she helped us decorate and even used items from the venue

I had a great experience here! I started out working with Melinda when beginning my booking and initial consultation for the venue. About a month or two before the wedding Jen Crowley reached out and she was absolutely amazing! She went over all the details and made sure everything was going good and running smoothly as planned. The day of the wedding she was super helpful with everything. The bartenders were amazing and did a great job! The venue was absolutely beautiful and the groom's suite and the bridal suite upstairs was stunning. If you are on the fence about having a wedding here, I would

Wow! This venue was perfect! Melinda and her crew were so easy to work with and very accommodating. We asked and they delivered! Many of our classmates, from all over the country, had not returned to Ottawa in 40 years. This beautiful historic space made a great impression and was the perfect backdrop for an evening of memories and reconnecting. Thank you Bottle House! Ottawa is lucky to have you!
