I've been going to the Lamplighter for three years now. The service offered by Calum, Anna, Cole, and Omega is consistently great. They are always smiling and offering the best service possible.

This is an iconic location in Gastown! I always have a good time here. I've come for a few events with large groups and the service was prompt and the food is good. It is a pretty good place to plan large events like birthday parties. I've also come here by myself when I've just wanted a drink at the bar. Calum in particular is a great bartender, very friendly, made sure my glass is always full and brings a welcoming community atmosphere to the location. I very much recommend, and if you are visiting Vancouver for the first time it is a Vancouver establishment you have to check out!

Really great staff. Super fun. I like management there. They are into the customer service Vibe. If you experience any issues, make sure you talk to the bartender and get a chat with The managers. They will make sure that you feel safe and comfortable In this historic neighborhood. Don't miss it. It won't be there forever. Times change but these guys are great.

I thought the pub I work at charged alot for drinks, but a place like this being so busy at night charging $27 for 2 jagerbombs doesn't feel right to me.

We came for Bingo night and had a great time! The food was okay. We just ordered some wings and they were fine. We won one of the bingo games and had a choice of a shot of tequila or a shot of whiskey, neither of which we drink but they wouldn’t substitute it so I gave it to the table next to me.

They let me in to use the bathroom without charging me or making me buy anything when I was quite drunk on a Saturday night. Ended up going back to the front after to pay the cover and hang out anyways. Had a blast! Thank you Lamplighter for your wonderful staff

The food and drinks here were great and the atmosphere was really chill. Service was good as well! I recommend coming here to grab a few drinks and hangout with friends :) their poutine is also really good and not too salty!

Food was nice we both had the classic burger and shared the dumplings. The service was nice - it was pub service as expected. Not excessive just what was needed. It's a pub and has that smell of a pub that's had booze lost on the floor. Was a Sunday night and was slow so quiet. NB the pub is owned by the same people who own Brass Fish Tavern. If you go to their sites the menu is pretty much the same so if you want the same food in a more laid back environment with (I thought) better service then go here.

The DJ on Saturday was awful and the music was absolute garbage. I requested a song and he said it was too slow but he also played Katy Perry fireworks so please take the place as is. Overall the club was a waste of time and I would rather spend time at a local McDonalds. The entire time they also played movies which was fairly odd for a lively “club”. Sleep on the club. Stay home. Or listen to the radio cuz it’s better than the Saturday night DJ for sure.

The first establishment to serve alcohol to women in Vancouver, also one of the oldest bars here, so there’s lots of rich history associated with the Lamplighter. Fast forward to today, the bar is filled with amazing staff who go above and beyond to make sure you have a great time. Great music on the weekends, fun and engaging activities on weekdays (eg. Trivia and Bingo). I’ve been coming here for a long time and I’ve never had a bad time. The Lamplighter is truly a Vancouver gem.
