I’ve been looking for a good pub in Vancouver for a while, and I’ve tried quite a few that were OK, but this one is by far my favorite.
The menu is somewhat limited and doesn’t really have much in the way of Irish food on it, but that’s OK. I don’t like much in the way of Irish food. What it does have is amazing smash burgers. They’re grilled with mustard on them, which creates a really amazing savory flavor. The bacon cheeseburger smash burger is just the right size, and I love that you can upgrade the side from fries to some crispy tater tots. I’ve had trouble finding those in most of the pubs around here.
The indoor vibe is classic Irish pub, and there’s also a sidewalk patio.
The bar service was terrific, and they’ve got all of the things you’d expect for an Irish pub, including excellent Guinness on tap and real Irish coffee made with Tullamore Dew.
