Favorite place to go for drinks?

[myssmysteria]

Since I am new to Van, and I love going out for drinks ( don't we all?), I was just wondering what your favorite spots are? Where is it? Drink specials? What makes it so great?

Cheers!

It can be any kind of place........not looking for anyhing in particular, or any particular area...just wondering what everyone's favs are and why .

Although I haven't been there, The Cobalt =)

I used to hit up the Astoria while the Cobalt was closed.. I'm told it was pretty much the same, and it's run by Wendythirteen as well, so I'm willing to vouche for it.

Martini 7 - great orangey atmosphere, cozy seating, good tea
Fiction - great atmosphere, good beats, exotic beers and downtempo beats
Malones - big patio, kitsilano crowd, cute twins waitress
Eatery - funky martinis, creatively delicious food, comic book atmosphere
Wings - ten dolla pitchers, right on granville, lots of seating

arg, my mind is elsewhere
more later :)

I've heard good things about Fiction it's on my 'to check out' list. Apparently they have good tapas

I'd recommend:

Salt - hidden in alley in Gastown it's crazy chic and they have an amazing wine list. One of the cooler wine bars i've ever been too

Central - Martini Mondays are great, I love their martini list - probably one of the more innovative lists I've come across

Jupiter Lounge - I find they have really reasonably priced martini's

Taf's - this little gallery/bistro near Robson and Granville, I love it for its cheap and delicious sangria, reasonably priced/good food and the fact that you can smoke upstairs even though I quit. It just has a great vibe all around

Toby's - probably my favorite watering hole, if i'm looking for a solid night of drinking with my friends Toby's is the place i'll go. It's not cheap but it's really clean and the vibe is great, plus it's on the Drive so it's good fun.


Section 3 - Another great patio and great drink list - probably my favorite place to go for drinks.
