Description:
DOWNTOWN. Dim and lively, this sports bar is an all-around kind of place, as good for hanging out with friends as for viewing the big game on one of the many TVs. Customary bar food includes things like chicken wings, popcorn shrimp with Creole mayonnaise, dry-rubbed ribs, and home-cut fries with dill dip. Plenty of beer keeps socializing on-track, and drink specials make many a happy customer as well. Laid-back and comfortable. Bands appear at the downtown location every weekend. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. Subtly lit and with pub-like ambience, this intimate club is a great Vancouver equalizer, welcoming folks of all interests, backgrounds and likes. Comfortably worn after 70 years of service, the Railway Club is one of those places that just feels good when you enter. Early in the evening, it invites socializing; after 8pm, bands take to the stage, and the place gets added character, courtesy of rock and blues music. Great draft beers are an added perk, and although it's a private club, gaining entrance is just a matter of paying a nominal annual price. |

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. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. It's elegance personified at this hotel lounge, whose crackling fireplace, plush appointments, and polished wood detailing speak of Old World luxury. Great cocktails are a welcome standard after work as professionals stop in for moneyed socializing and attentive service. Later into the evening, a pianist plays familiar melodies and even takes requests if there's a song you must hear. An ideal place to treat yourself to a measure of the good life. |

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. |

Description:
YALETOWN. This enticing dance spot is one of Vancouver's most popular – and it has been for more than two decades now. For much of the week, Richard's features live bands, both local and touring acts, including performers like Prince, Branford Marsalis and Philosopher Kings. On weekends, however, DJs spin, and patrons fill the dance floor, grooving to reggae, rock, R&B and house tunes. The place's lively ambience can be attributed to splashy decor, high-tech laser lights, a terrific sound system and a well-dressed crowd. |

Description:
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. |
