43 Best Pubs in Vancouver

“best...burger...ever......“

“Really enjoyed our visit before the Teddy Swims concert. Great local beer selection, burger was delicious! The place was rocking!!! Asked the bartender if it was always like this on a Saturday and he said he’d never seen it so busy. Bartenders were slammed.“

“great food, good beers,the best company“

“The food was great — loved the fried chicken and the rice cakes. The overall atmosphere was nice too, and the K-pop music added to the vibe.

However, there was only one server at the front. She had to handle seating guests, making drinks, taking payments, serving dishes, and cleaning tables all by herself. It was clearly too much for one person to manage. The management really should staff more servers.“

“Great bar! Good food and drinks, only bad I had to pay in cash and not credit or debit card.“

“Best slushy in Van!! Hit the patio for some yummy wings n poutine too!! Maniac Mondays 👍👍👍“

“Best place, always! Food. Service. Everything“

“Great beer! Curious creatures in tap was amazing!!“

“A great local, great daily specials, full happy hour feels with an amazing array of locals that will fast become pals. The bartenders actually do know your name on your second visit, and full of charm. No politics, a packed trivia night on Wednesdays and don’t let the stove behind the bar fool you. It’s a limited menu however the quality and portions are winners. I used to make the best nachos, until I tried them at The Brighton. It doesn’t matter who makes them, if you are a fan, it’s the Brighton or Jackalopes. Give it a try“

“Stopped in for happy hour to have a beer and poutine. Food was great the team even better. Ending up staying and engaging with multiple staff members. (Danny, Sean, Javier, and an Australian bartender)They were all extremely nice and fun to talk to. Beyond the decor and service they were experimenting with new drinks and we got to try one. Watch out for the biscoff martini it is absolutely delicious!“

“Highly recommend! Michael was awesome! Cheers!!“

“great place for Oilers fans“

“Friendly staff and a fun crowd makes the Princeton a memorable night out.“

“Nacho's and beer are my favorites. I don't get out often but when I do I come here. Friendly service great food. Prices are good to.“

“Many good times back in the day. Can't really talk about any of them. This place was lawless. I've taken a couple serious beatings outside of this place. I've also given some. But good times were had by all! Once had great prices on meat, cheese, batteries, and bikes too!“

“Lovely mushroom pizza Tasty beer Friendly staff“

“Watched game 7 here. Our waitress was awesome and so kind the whole night despite how busy it was! Great atmosphere. Lots of TVs and reasonably priced food and drinks. Good location in Kits. Yummy pizza place beside the bar. Once went to a birthday here and it was awesome. So sad watching the jays loose. Some might even say that the better team lost. Anyways, great night. Definitely recommend Biminiee. Super awesome.“

“I went on a Friday evening for the first time. It hit crowded and we had to sit in the entrance. Other than that staff held the crowd in balance and everyone was eating and the food is scrumptious.
Atmosphere is Soothing after a week of work.
The people are friendly and it was just a Great part of my neighborhood.“

“Great view, friendly staff and service, good food.“

“Ordered wine and other necessities this morning. Arrived by lunchtime! Always friendly and reliable.“

“Friendly bar and good music“

“Been in here twice now while on visits to Vancouver. I'm rating this place as a dive bar and as dive bars go, this place is great. Friendly bartender. Clientele are either pleasant or indifferent to your presence and not causing any issues. Pool table is straight and drinks are cheap. I'd recommend to anyone wanting to check out a safe dive. Props on the exterior signage!“

“Live music and fun crowd!“

“Came in for hockey and karaoke on Thursday. The staff are super friendly and drink specials are competitive - compared to most places in Vancouver the price is very good! Food prices are also fair - I didn't eat but plates looked great. Considering there's a strike going on, they still have a well stocked bar.“

“Stumbled upon this place while on our visit to Vancouver & loved the atmosphere & hospitality of James & the other bartenders. Great place to enjoy 🥳“

“Highly recommend! Michael was awesome! Cheers!!“

“My fiance and I ate here last night. We were walking downtown and discovered it, and we were hungry so we went in.

A beautiful place with cool decor, and a nice, calm atmosphere.

We ordered the dirty fries, calamari, and a chicken burger. Holy crap.

The food? 20/10. Most phenomenal fries and calamari I've ever had. So fresh, crisp, and the calamari wasn't rubber at all. My fiance's burger was light and crispy, and so flavorful.

We will 1000% be coming back. Thank you!“

“I have had the pleasure to DJ many weddings at this affordable venue. The space is clean and bright. The garden for ceremony is beautiful too and the food is amazing. Service is always on point and super friendly :)
Zapped Productions DJ’s - MAT V“

“Popped in to the Kings Head this afternoon. Our second visit as I am visiting family. Had a great afternoon sat in the sun when the clouds would let us. But no matter as the heaters were on and kept us nice and toasty. Had some great wings & fry’s all washed down with some Cider. Served by Christina who’s new to the role but destined to be management in no time, attentive without being overbearing. And made us feel right at home. Will definitely be back soon… cheers guys“

“The menu was perfect.. simple but done really well….the food was great. Service was on point, Eddie was awesome. Definitely a go to for us now when in Vancouver.“

“I've come in here a few times, the prices are fair. No matter what you buy it's a good price!
There's usually lots of people that come in here, the liqours always cold.
I appreciate that, I would rather travel further for colder beer but this place is cold right off the bat !“

“The first time I came here was 6.5 years ago with my brother. We really enjoyed our visit. On Halloween this year I brought my husband. We had maple old fashioned and shared a giant soft pretzel with mustard and dill sauce. Its still cosy and inviting.“

“Recommend the Oak Stout, Truly spirited“

“great impossible burger and salad for me and my husband had a delicious patty melt with fries great service!“

“The best chicken wings ever!“

“Such a surprise! A very unassuming establishment that was pleasantly surprising with a great atmosphere, engaging service and the food was excellent! If you find yourself in Vancouver and aren't sure where to eat, this would be a place to consider. Highly recommended!“

“Great food at great prices!!!“

“Great atmosphere and great service“

“Went for Easter Monday lunch. Food was awesome, I had the roasted turkey sandwich and my friend had the Cajun chicken sandwich (she was able to get it dairy free). Both were really tasty and great portions for the price. Workers were also very kind. Good seating options and bathrooms. Def would come back :)“
