Howe Sound Taphouse & Kitchen has opened a new location in East Vancouver, offering a tropical-themed atmosphere with bamboo trim and a spacious interior. The Squamish ski chalet theme is absent here, but there's a S-facing outdoor patio for sun-lovers. Staff are friendly, and the draft beer selection is good, although slightly limited compared to the Squamish location.
The East Van kitchen offers a variety of dishes, including pizzas, which are available all day, unlike the Squamish location. The Neopolitan-style pizzas, such as Longshoreman and Brewer's Select, are well-received for their fresh toppings and generous amounts of meat. The poutine also gets positive feedback for its crispy fries, cheese curds, and gravy.
Service is noted as friendly and attentive, although there have been isolated instances of chemical-tasting water and beer. The venue's atmosphere is described as generic, resembling a hotel lobby. Another downside is the lack of a sound system for sports events, as the audio comes only from TVs, causing an echo effect.
Despite these shortcomings, the East Van Howe Sound Taphouse & Kitchen is praised for its late operating hours, tasty food, and friendly service. It's recommended for those looking for a place to dine in the area.
