Pivo is Russian for "beer" - when this place opened it had this great beer list on a menu with boxes beside them, and if the boxes were ticked off then that meant it was in stock. The list was considerable, and the layout let you know it wouldn't all…More »

Best Damned Iced Cream Bubble Tea In Town, and Cheap!
I recommend mango or green tea.
The Podium is a Sports Bar.
They hire attractive young girls to work as waitresses and walk around offering beer specials, which are typically related to whatever major sporting events are taking place currently.
They have lots of televisions showing…More »
best place for craft beer in vancouver, hands down. reasonably priced, fair scotch list, and great food too, but if you're not coming for the beer then you're missing the whole thing. it's a beer place. friendly staff, dedicated owners, comfortable,…More »

The coffee here is really good. Yum.

i've been slinking in here for 15 years now, and while my needs have changed, this place hasn't, but somehow i always get my needs met. hang out with washed-up musicians as they wait to die, get smashed drunk on 20oz pints from their considerable…More »
i kinda miss the old met, but the new met is alright too. karaoke on wednesdays, a regular assortment of rotating specials, and at the end of the day it's a bar, nothing too special; at least that much hasn't changed. since donnelly bought it out…More »

This place has terrific coffee, and is a great place to sit and relax while enjoying it. If you're looking to grab one to go, save .25 cents and go one short block to Cuppa Joe, which is where Our Town purchases their beans, and help fight the crazy…More »

This is a fun place to go. The staff are excellent and run a totally unpretentious bar with an assortment of regulars through the week, and DJs who pack the joint and get everybody up dancing on weekends.
The drinks are super cheap, they play great…More »
This is a fantastic establishment.
The food is consistently very good, priced fairly, and there are regular specials. I suggest the roast lamb, which I eat about once per month.
The drinks, for what this place is, are AmAzing. They've got a fantastic…More »

This is how the Metropole would/should have been renovated, had the Donnelly group not bungled the whole affair. Makes great use of the cool old building, has reasonable prices, gets lots of natural light, and to play pool is only one fat dollar.…More »
This place used to be part of the adjacent hotel some years back, but then they separated somehow and it is now independent. i recall some pretty tasty food as far as pub fare goes, but that's changed dramatically and now i won't eat there at all.…More »
