This hip lounge riffs on its name, thanks to '60s-era decor, artwork and drinks that pay homage to Ginger Rogers and Ginger Grant, and an Asian-inspired menu.

Plush

Plush Nightclub is a cross between a laid back lounge and bar custom made for chillin' and a high-energy dance club. Bumping into the wee hours, this newly renovated space can accommodate a crowd but still feel cozy thanks to the two levels and three bars. Lots of steel, glass and wildly geometric floor covering and...

Republic

Address: 958 Granville St, Vancouver, BC

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

Though the interior of Republic practically shouts industrial with a London twist, the surprise is the array of menu items which are elevated pub grub such as yam fries, seafood munchies and delectable sweets. The dining crowd is a mixed bunch, but as the night wears on, the beautiful people pack in to groove to a...
