Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Bowen Island

"A post shared by With the Locals📍 (@withthelocals) on Apr 10, 2017 at 7:41am PDT. They’re cooking using the best of the season at Vancouver’s elegant The Acorn, so their menu is always evolving with the calendar. Their dishes are all vegetarian as a base, with most adaptable to suit vegan diners."

"The Acorn is a vegetarian restaurant that offers an extra variety of gluten-free vegetarian meals. Focusing on fresh local ingredients means the menus are seasonal. The decor of the restaurant reflects the modern and elegant character of the dishes served."

"Somewhat of a Vancouver institution at 568 Beatty Street, Chambar's Belgian-inspired brunches and upscale evening menu make it a favorite with locals and visitors alike. Enjoy your moules frites with a glass of local or imported beer, and enjoy similar breakfast bites to sister restaurant Cafe Medina (including those legendary waffles)."

"Vancouver's beloved carbon-neutral Belgian eatery has nailed dinner service for years. Now, you can head to Beatty Street for outstanding brunch, as well. Their 11-item menu is meat-forward but vegans can find options or modify."

"In this hip eatery, classic Belgian dishes are reinvented with flavors from North Africa and beyond. The moules (mussels) are justifiably...Read More"

"Enter through the striking, marble-framed doors and step past the futuristic bell-shaped light shaft, and you'll find a small, yet appropriately modern, reception desk that's suitably sized for a 96-room boutique hotel. The Opus was a gust of fresh air when it opened in 2002. As one of Yaletown’s first boutique hotels, it quickly became a part of the area’s vibrant dinner and nightlife scene, and its street-facing lobby-level bar, an eclectic den o’ sin, draws fashionable 20- and 30-something professionals."

"This four-star boutique hotel sits among cocktail bars and designer boutiques in Yaletown, arguably Vancouver’s trendiest neighborhood. Its 96 contemporary guest rooms feature bold art on even bolder walls of tangerine and chartreuse green. Just across the street from Yaletown-Roundhouse station, you can easily get around the city by SkyTrain or taking advantage of the hotel’s free loaner bikes."

"The Opus blends hip design, pops of vivid colour and tongue-in-cheek art with excellent customer service, tech-luxe gizmos and a terrific in-house Italian restaurant. Boldly bohemian but comfortably luxurious, this hotel may be cool, but its welcome is warm."

"Open rain or shine, year-round, The Roof at Black+Blue deserves praise for its decor. Ample seating, LED block chairs, and fireplaces fill up the space to create a cozy and intimate vibe. Happy hour runs daily from 2:30pm – 6:00pm."

"Ideal for a group of friends who want to try out a beautiful steakhouse such as Black + Blue. Try their prime rib, caesar salad, and finish up with their heavenly sweet butter cake. Address: 1032 Alberni St, Vancouver, BC V6E 1A3"

"Speaking of Instagram-worthy patios, The Roof at Black + Blue has recently undergone a makeover to become a magical secret garden, just in time for spring. Where: 1032 Alberni Street, Vancouver"

"I'm glad The Ellis has survived the terrible struggles through Covid and it really is great bar (good choice of beers) and patio, but the food is ta..."

"Strange Fellows' sleek, stark decor raises the bar, so to speak, among local craft beer spots. This is a handsome room with a handsome exterior; with a flat-topped roof and steel gray-and-red facade, it doesn’t even pretend to play folksy. Other beer spots will maybe hang a painting or two on their walls; Strange Fellows, however, opened the Charles Clark Gallery, a showcase for modern art, right on the premises."

"The black-walled tasting room with idol-like animal masks and adjoining art gallery has East Van edginess, while the award-winning beer program is helmed by veteran guru brewer Iain Hill, who consistently puts out inventive but crowd-pleasing stuff (think sour-beer pioneer). There’s a cult feel here ."

"We are an East Vancouver craft brewery inspired by tradition and creativity that goes beyond the ordinary to celebrate that which is strange and extraordinary. Try: Calamity Companion - 4 x 750ml bottles of our best and most special release beers"

"A post shared by RRKADE 🕹 (@rrkade) on Apr 11, 2018 at 12:09pm PDT. Looking for an excellent place to celebrate a birthday party or a casual friends’ night?. If so, why don’t you visit the Belmont Bar for a night of entertainment, music, dancing, superb food, and overflowing drinks?"

"A post shared by The Granville Warehouse (@thegranvillewarehouse) on Nov 8, 2017 at 12:34pm PST. If you’re willing to battle through the loud music and dim lighting, you’re in for a wide range of dishes that cost no more than $4.95. Not just that, but there’s always a solid weekday special going on – AYCE pasta and Wing Wednesdays, for starters."

"Robson Square is one of the landmark public plazas and civic centres in Vancouver. Home to Vancouver’s provincial court, Robson Square is also the location of the only outdoor ice-skating rink in downtown Vancouver!. Covered by a steel and glass dome, the ice rink becomes a skating rink in the winter season."

"The Rosewood Hotel Georgia brings splendor and glamor to Vancouver; it should be no surprise that it has been an iconic hotel since 1927. Prohibition is located in the basement of the hotel and this bar and lounge exude the decadence of the roaring twenties, from top to bottom. As you step inside the vaulted door off of Howe Street and make your way down the staircase, take a moment to soak it all in."

"The goal of Prohibition Brewing is to brew beer that's so good you would order it even if it were against the law. Put their mission to the test when you visit their tasting bar in Yaletown. The tasting room has five Prohibition beers on tap that will take you back to a time where drinking was dangerously delicious."

"The Mark James Group has brewed beer at the Yaletown Brewing Company for over 20 years, so when they decided to start artisan distilling in 2013 they brought with them a wealth of industry knowledge. Located in the historic Yaletown Soho building, the tasting room offers visitors guided tours, tastings and a retail room where you can purchase a bottle to take home for yourself. Don’t-miss Drink: Yaletown Vodka."

"The folks at Mount Pleasant’s Maizal know it too, and that’s why they serve some of the best handmade tacos in the city. In fact, they’re so popular, they’ve made it to our Top 10 Taco List, and our Bucket List. They truly rank high for authentic Mexican food in Vancouver."
