Nice and cool bar. We just go there up for a drink. I think the scene is underground. We found what we’re looking for. There was also concerts at the evening. Just one thing I missed - music was played on tv not on stereo or sth. So it was a little bit too quiet and it feels like it closed.

Vern’s is the best dive in town. Clint and Ian are incredible, always so kind. Great shows (music and comedy). Don’t miss out!

I didn't get his name (older guy, possibly the owner/manager), but he was the worst bartender I'd ever had the misfortune of talking to. He spoke very rudely, made it seem like the fact that my friend & I were even there was an inconvenience to him, and kept throwing sly digs at us the whole time. We left after one drink to go find a different bar. Dude is an absolute tool. Do not go here if you have any respect for yourself.

Clint was a most excellent server! I was so comfortable in this atmosphere. If you like dive bars, this is the place for you! If you're most of an upscale bar/pub type of person, just move along.

Terrible experience. I tried to celebrate my birthday here and I was cut off at one drink because the bartender decided. I would genuinely understand if I had more than one drink. But he heard that I make money . And was thinking. This was the most bias bar I have ever been too .

A really fun dive bar with lots of local bands playing every week. The staff are pretty awesome guys.

Lovely place. I suggest bring cash.The oners/workers are nice, to the point, like to chat, and were answering my very odd questions about Canadian culture with patience.I really liked their non alcoholic beer too!Hope to come again for some more live music.

Stumbled into this place by chance, what a gem. The live music was fantastic, so much energy. The vibe upbeat and high spirited. The drinks went down like water. Someone even bought a round for the bar! Don’t see that anymore.

Amazing pool table, so much character and duct tape. Nice people in a solid dive bar atmosphere

Clint is so very welcoming and the sound quality is superb for the size of the venue.Come on out and see a show, it's such a safe atmosphere.
