Beavertails- Queues de Castor (Tanger Outlets)

Beavertails- Queues de Castor sits at 8555 Campeau Dr in Ottawa, ON, at the Tanger Outlets location, and serves fried pastry-based treats and related snacks to shoppers passing through the outlet mall. The shop is reachable at 613-715-0060, and the brand's website, beavertails.com, outlines the range of products offered under the BeaverTails name.

The core product is the flat, hand-stretched fried pastry the brand is known for, topped with a choice of sweet toppings and served warm. Beyond the signature pastry, the menu built around this concept also includes fried snack items such as poutine and a fried-pastry-wrapped hot dog style item, plus cold and hot drinks and ice cream. For anyone stopping at the outlet mall on Campeau Drive looking for a quick treat between stores, this location offers that classic warm-pastry option on site.

What is served at this location

The menu centers on a warm, flattened fried pastry topped to order, alongside savoury fried snacks, cold and hot beverages, and ice cream.

The signature fried pastry

The main draw is a fried dough pastry, stretched flat and cooked until golden, then finished with toppings chosen at the counter — the kind of classic sweet, cinnamon-sugar-style treat associated with the BeaverTails name. It is meant to be eaten warm, right after it comes out of the fryer, which suits the quick-stop pace of an outlet mall visit.

Savoury options and snacks

For visitors looking for something more filling than a sweet pastry, the menu also includes savoury fried items such as poutine and a hot-dog-style item wrapped in the same signature pastry dough. These give shoppers on a meal break a heartier option without leaving the food-service area of the outlets.

Drinks and ice cream

To round out a stop, cold options such as lemonade and slushie-style drinks are available for warmer visits, while hot chocolate and coffee suit cooler days. Ice cream, including flavours inspired by the signature pastry, is also part of the lineup for those who prefer a scoop over a fried treat.

A seasonal stop at the outlet mall

Demand for a fried, warm pastry treat at an outdoor-facing outlet mall in Ottawa naturally shifts with the seasons, and this location's product mix — hot pastries alongside cold drinks and ice cream — is built to answer that shift.

Summer shopping trips

Through the warmer months, Tanger Outlets on Campeau Drive draws steady foot traffic from shoppers browsing multiple stores in one visit, and a quick stop for a cold lemonade, slushie, or scoop of ice cream fits naturally into that kind of outing. A treat that can be eaten while walking between storefronts suits the casual, browse-and-snack rhythm of outlet shopping in the summer.

Fall and back-to-school season

As Ottawa moves into fall and outlet shopping trips start to include back-to-school runs, a warm pastry topped with cinnamon sugar becomes a comfort-food pick for families taking a break between stores. Cooler afternoons make the hot, fresh-off-the-fryer version of the pastry more appealing than the cold options that dominate midsummer visits.

Winter holiday shopping

Ottawa winters bring cold temperatures and heavier holiday shopping traffic to outlet malls, and this is typically when hot chocolate, coffee, and a warm fried pastry see the most demand. A short stop for something hot to eat or drink fits well into a longer day of holiday gift shopping, especially when moving between an outdoor or semi-outdoor row of stores in the cold.

Spring visits

As the weather turns milder heading into spring, foot traffic at the outlets picks back up with shoppers refreshing wardrobes and browsing seasonal sales, and the menu's mix of both hot and cold items means there is a fitting option regardless of a still-cool morning or a mild afternoon.

Getting there and ordering

The location operates from within the Tanger Outlets property at 8555 Campeau Dr in Ottawa, making it accessible to anyone already shopping at the mall.

Location within the outlet mall

Being situated inside Tanger Outlets means this stop is typically part of a broader shopping visit rather than a standalone destination trip, serving shoppers who are already on site for retail browsing and want a food break without leaving the property.

Ordering and payment

Orders are placed directly at the counter, and various payment methods are accepted on site.
