This hotel pub gets major points for its Granville Island location and its delicious microbrews that are crafted on the premises. TVs and a fireplace make hockey night cozy, but the patio is by all accounts one of the best places to hang out. The large space offers sweeping views of Vancouver and False Creek's, and the fact that it's heated is an added bonus. Representative quaffs include the Cartwright Pale Ale and the Haupenthal Hefeweizen. The food menu is made up of small and large bites that include Dockside crab and shrimp cakes, grilled and chilled ancho chili prawns, pizzas and albacore tuna poke, to name just a few.
