This location is actually quite tricky to get into. The back of the building faces Willingdon, so…read moreyou're actually looking for an alley directly W of the street. Parking is available upstairs at the Safeway. Their lot covers the entire plaza AND the liquor store, so you're good. The location is one of the brighter lit ones (good). There are samples to be had, and the staff are friendly. One of the few things the government gets right. Other than the fact the same stuff in USA is half the price.

I forgot about how tricky it was to get into this liquor store as I missed the tiny alleyway…read moreentrance on Pender Street and had to circle around and come on into this place from the Willingdon side. It is your friendly neighbourhood liquor store that has the lower prices from the privates and I'm all about saving some coin, especially on the alcohol front. They don't have a huge selection like the one that is across from my work (Cambie-Oakridge) but the prices are the same. They have a recycling area in the back, security guards watching so no one runs off stealing stuff. Parking is pretty good here, as you have the whole of the underground on the Safeway side to park, and walk a few steps and you are in here. Interesting design, as this is an older building, when you enter it's a regular door, with a handicap button, but when you leave, there is a big sliding door that goes sideways (so they must know people leave with shopping carts worth of booze). A good enough selection in terms of countries and regions for wine, as I said... your not getting signature store selection, but regular government prices. The big names, they got em, the smaller ones.. not so much. Considering the location of this one (hidden, a little) at least there is an option here. Just remember those hours of operation, and this is not private, so holidays.. this place ain't open!

Stopped in here with a friend for a drink and bite to eat on a Saturday night. It was really busy…read morewith almost no empty tables. We were fortunate enough to snag a tiny one by the pool tables but it wasn't big enough for food and drinks so we ended up moving before ordering food. We shared a small plate of nachos and a chicken wrap with fries. I don't recommend the guacamole, as it wasn't very fresh and just had a weird texture. The food was very average in my opinion. At least they have a decent beer list. They had karaoke and there was a steady stream of people waiting to take their turn on the microphone. Those folks were much braver than me, that's for sure. I love that they still have pull tab machines, those are always going to take some of my money, if for nothing else but the nostalgia. I ended up winning a few bucks, so that added to the overall positive experience. Service was ok - there seemed to be a bit of confusion over who our server was, but once that was resolved, we had no issues. It was fairly loud but not so much that we couldn't still carry on a conversation. I'd probably go back, because there are not too many places in the area that still have a pool table.

Electric crowd for Canada's massive win! Quick service, cold beer, and a 5/5 game-day vibe.read more
