10Best Pub
Doolin's Irish Pub
(Nightlife - Pub)
654 Nelson St, Vancouver  V6B 5B6 • 604-605-4343
Distance: ~0.580 km *
        Description: GRANVILLE STREET. Lots of polished wood and Victorian style impart character to this traditional Irish pub. The large place also gets punctuations of stained glass, a fireplace and private booths. Sixteen beers are on tap, including Guinness and Kilkenny. Bottled options and liquor are also available, along with a menu of pub fare that'll have you doing a little jig yourself. Live Celtic music finds its place Monday through Thursday, beginning at 9pm, and lunch specials are a terrific midday treat.

Steamworks Brewing Company
(Nightlife - Pub)
375 Water St Landing Building, Vancouver  V6B 5C6 • 604-689-2739
Distance: ~0.736 km *
        Description: GASTOWN. At this microbrewery, steam used to craft the beers is city-supplied, and the brewing process is visible through the dining room's glass walls. It's an unusual method, but it produces great local brews, including a zippy espresso ale. Inside, dark woodwork and book-lined shelves add ambience, and from the expansive windows, you'll get views of the water and mountains. Upscale pub fare wards off hunger pangs nicely; afterwards, get moving with a game of pool, or simply sit back and relax by the fireplace.

Fountainhead Pub
(Nightlife - Pub)
1025 Davie St, Vancouver  V6E 1M6 • 604-687-2222
Distance: ~0.840 km *
        Description: DAVIE VILLAGE. With its dark wood detailing and draft beers, this pub has a traditional feel. It's also a tried-and-true hangout for the gay community, who take advantage of its daytime hours to meet for lunch, socialize and enjoy the outdoor patio. Great beers (bottled and tap, domestics and imports) join a substantial list of cocktails and shots for the partying set, and sandwiches, salads and burgers take care of hungry appetites. TVs, pool tables, darts and great music provide additional distractions. A fun neighborhood place.

Atlantic Trap & Gill
(Nightlife - Pub)
118 Robson St, Vancouver  V6B 2A6 • 604-688-5840
Distance: ~0.896 km *
        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."

Yaletown Brewing Company
(Nightlife - Pub)
1111 Mainland St, Vancouver  V6B 5P2 • 604-681-2739
Distance: ~0.950 km *
        Description: YALETOWN. Like many Yaletown establishments, this microbrewery occupies a stylish, renovated warehouse. Eight specialty beers come standard, and they include Frank's Nut Brown Ale, Red Brick Bitter, Indian Arm Pale Ale, Harbour Light Lager, and Hill's Special Wheat (a hefeweizen). A light menu features hearty sandwiches, pizzas and a slate of zesty appetizers. A warm, rustic atmosphere prevails, and you'll find pool tables, TVs, rock-and-roll music, an outdoor patio and a floor full of peanut shells, to boot.

Cardero's Live Bait Yacht Club Marine Pub
(Nightlife - Pub)
1583 Coal Harbour Quay, Vancouver  V6G 3E7 • 604-669-7666
Distance: ~1.033 km *
        Description: WEST END. Like many Vancouver pubs, Cardero's takes advantage of its waterside locale by serving fresh seafood (including great oysters!) and offering a nautical-themed decor. Its comfy interior invites folks to linger, which isn't hard to do at all, considering the place's appetizing selection of pub fare and its great drinks. Bolstering all of that appeal are wonderful views of the harbor and the terrain beyond. The adjacent restaurant serves creative, affordable, and upscale cuisine. Great outdoor patio and live entertainment too.

Irish Heather
(Nightlife - Pub)
210 Carrall St, Vancouver  V6B 2J2 • 604-688-9779
Distance: ~1.184 km *
        Description: GASTOWN. For a touch of genuine Irish spirit, this gastropub can't be beat. Irish owners provide a note of authenticity, as do the menu and drinks. Guinness is always accessible, along with a selection of other draft and bottled beers, not to mention wines and cocktails. Plus, the Shebeen, a small venue across the courtyard, carries a great number of whiskies, scotches and ryes. Traditional Irish fare peppers the menu, along with creative dishes that capitalize on Vancouver's great culinary bounty.

Blarney Stone
(Nightlife - Pub)
216 Carral St, Vancouver  V6B 2J1 • 604-687-4322
Distance: ~1.184 km *
        Description: GASTOWN. Always featuring lively Celtic house bands on the weekends, this Gastown-area bar packs in a crowd that is growing along with their reputation as a midsize live-music destination. Recent renovations include a new, larger stage, an improved sound system and better seating. A mezzanine offers another great sightline to the entertainment which also features touring artists and high-drawing local acts. And it is still a great place to quaff a pint and chat up the locals.

Bridges
(Nightlife - Pub)
1696 Duranleau St, Vancouver  V6H 3S4 • 604-687-4400
Distance: ~1.694 km *
        Description: GRANVILLE ISLAND. This cozy, waterfront pub, located on Granville Island next to the Public Market, is just part of an entire Bridges complex, which also offers indoor dining rooms and spacious, outdoor decks. The place, perennially busy, is a favorite of the after-work crowd, who gather to sample terrific, local microbrews and munch on tasty pub fare. Other pastimes include playing darts or catching the game on TV. Part of Bridges' strong appeal is its fantastic views of city, water and the distant mountains.

Dockside Brewing Company
(Nightlife - Pub)
1253 Johnston St Granville Island Hotel, Vancouver  V6H 3R9 • 604-685-7070
Distance: ~1.796 km *
        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.
