13 Best Brewpubs near Vancouver

“Came here for dinner in May recently after spending the afternoon exploring the city.
Thought it was just a normal pub and did not expect this place to be so large with multiple storeys.
The atmosphere was nice.

Food was nice and service was good.
There is a large selection of beers but the stout was not available.“

“We had a great time visiting this place last month , right after a long and exhausting day at work. The service was friendly and efficient, which made the experience even better. The food overall was good, though the popcorn chicken was a bit on the salty side.

The crafted beers were excellent! We enjoyed them so much that we even took a few cans of IPA to go.

It’s also a really good place to hang out. There was a DJ playing when we were there, and the vibes were so uplifting! it really helped us unwind and enjoy the night.

Would definitely come back for the drinks, music, and chill atmosphere.“

“Thank you helping me look for my keys“

“**Edit: To the owner, thank you for addressing my comment. I really like Container Brewing. **

I love this place. They have been excellent hosting events for fundraisers, parties and more. But the other night put the sourest of tastes in our mouths.

There were multiple tables still sitting in the bar, and one server was insistent that our group, having just come from the sauna experience (also incredible), "skidaddle". She was drunk herself, and one of the rudest people I have ever met in the industry.“

“Super cute little spot off Southwest Marine Drive that is charming, welcoming and has some nice brews and bites. Dog friendly which is super awesome (they have a dog wall!).
Sorry the photo has half eaten and half drank beer, I had to dive in before remembering to take a picture haha“

“Fabulous IPA along with other selections!“

“Extra 10 a cervejaria! E as cervejas são extra 100!“

“As a beer and massive atmospheric vibe girl, I saw all the reviews saying how the atmosphere was just not it here. I disagree. The ambiance here is like a funky dive bar, Tiki, hotel, beer lounge. Everything feels new and clean. Good little touches around. I thought it to be a funky beer lounge. That being said. The music needs a level up. I love Nelly furtado, but this place needs more of a lounge, underground feel for music. Not pop. I’m sad to see it so empty on a Friday night. I hope people see its potential!! Let’s support one of the oldest breweries! With some cool events and happy hours and specials I see this place booming!“

“Went to Vancouver Brewing Company on Saturday early evening prior to the Whitecaps game. We were sat in the dining area which was very nice, the noise level increased gradually over the time we were there but was not too intrusive. As it was towards the end of the happy hour we chose from the happy hour menu. We shared the nachos and had beer and wine to go with. The nachos were quite tasty and the serving was sufficient for both of us to share. We would return to Yaletown Brewing Company again to enjoy more of the main menu.“

“Great experience here. I ordered the poached peach granola bowl - the portion was huge, delicious, and very reasonably priced. Iced latte tasted burnt though. But most importantly, they are pet-friendly. My friend, her puppy, and I sat on the patio on a rainy October day. Their patio is covered and heated, which is great even in lousy weather.“

“Tasty food, our server was great. This is our first visit here, we’ll be back.🍻“

“We were here within an hour of landing (from Australia.) Staff were friendly and courteous. I enjoyed a 'Greg' West Coast IPA, of course. A little disappointed with the T-shirts; I am looking for tasteful examples that mention the brewery name.“

“Late 2024 edit: new owners again? Decent wing special, nicely priced pints, packs out on the weekends but is still chilled out during the week, place is nearly back to its former glory!

Edit: Food has gone downhill with the new ownership, wings are now bulked out with breadcrumbs and taste a bit funky, if you told me they were fish fingers I'd believe you.
Menu has changed, no ribs etc.

Decent wings specials and the best wings I've had in North Van (so far), have tried a few other mains from the menu and was pleasantly surprised. Very reasonably priced drinks, staff are always friendly and on-point.“
