Description:
KITSILANO. As cozy and intimate as you'd expect a jazz venue to be, this much-appreciated club delivers some of the city's best live performances. Although the definition of what jazz is can be broad here, the music is undeniably top-notch. The place is especially busy on weekends, so you'll need to come early to get a seat in the 70-person room. A terrific cocktail menu includes a wide array of martinis, and food choices include a menu of light fare and sinful desserts. A favorite of aficionados and novices alike. |

Description:
GRANVILLE ISLAND. A little sleeker and more polished than typical pubs, this hotel establishment gets points for its Granville Island location and its microbrews, which are crafted on the premises. TVs and a fireplace add instant appeal inside, but the patio is, by all accounts, one of the best places to hang out. The large space offers sweeping views of Vancouver and the water, and it's heated when the weather cools. Representative quaffs include the Alder Bay Honey Lager and the Haupenthal Hefeweizen. Food is available. |

Description:
YALETOWN. A laid-back, rustic ambience pervades this welcoming pub, where seafood is tops and the maritime-themed decor boasts well-loved upholstery and tables crafted from kegs. East Coast flavor reigns in beer, food and music, providing a western outpost for transplants and fans alike. Live bands play Thursday and Saturday evenings, regaling patrons with folk and Celtic tunes. This bit of fun is always free, which makes the food and drinks taste that much better! The place's curious name can be attributed to local liquor laws, which forbade use of the word "tap" in the name. As a result, owners simply shifted the "r" from "grill" to "tap." |

A revolving roster of Vancouver's best local rock bands play here night after night. Emerging and established talent, sometimes as many as four acts in one night, take the small stage to rally an already energetic crowd that packs in to discover the latest and greatest on the music scene. DJs spin on nights with no entertainment, but the fun doesn't stop coming with drink specials, a mechanical bull and the occasional Tropical Heat Foam Party where the heat gets turned up, foam sprayers turned on and all are encouraged to slip into their skimpiest beachwear and get sticky. |

The place's lively ambience can be attributed to splashy decor, high-tech laser lights, a terrific sound system and a well-dressed crowd. |
