This building is so gorgeous. High ceiling makes me feel pleasant even in crowded event.

I have passed by this prominent, very brown, very stately building on Main at 15th SO many times…read more It takes up nearly a city block and is 3 stories high, and has a very imposing clock tower, too! My kid had her high school prom here, and there are often various community events held here, as well as private parties, receptions and weddings. Today I finally got the chance to visit the building, though, as there was a weekend-long artisan fair held here. What a lovely venue! Outside, by the entrance, there is a plaque on the facade declaring this building as a "Heritage Building" (designated as such in 1974). The actual building was built in 1915 and was first used as a post office. For those who care about architectural and design styles, the building is classified as being done in the Beaux Arts Classicism style, with a lot of ornamentation on the sculptured columns and facade's stone. There are many sculpted faces and sandstone festoons visible on the first and second story exterior. Inside, the first floor used to be a grand ballroom, and it was recently re-done (in 2015), so now there is a terrazzo floor, and where once was a huge trompe l'oeil mural is now a blank wall (bummer). There still are beautiful chandeliers and an ethereal ceiling that's reminiscent of calming green-blue sea glass. Today at the artisan fair, there were tables lined up and creating aisles in the ballroom, so the room looked somewhat small. I'd imagine the venue appearing much larger and spatially impressive without all the tables. I was impressed by this building. It was lovely inside and out. The location on Main Street is awesome, too, with tons of parking on Main and the side streets, and so many fun shops, coffee houses and restaurants nearby.

Perfect space for the AcroYogis to commune and play!…read more LOCATION & DECOR: South side of North Vancouver right on the water near the piers. Wooden beam ceilings and large roof trusses. High ceilings and an open floor plan. SWAG/AMENITIES: 2 bathrooms, large windows for lots of light and high vaulted ceilings STAFF & EXPERIENCE: Came here for an Acura yoga festival and had an absolute blast. The space is perfect for the Acroyogis to get together and play. The space provided a lot of light and the open floor plan was great for an inclusive space. There really isn't much to it though. Just a large open space with bathrooms straight across from the entrance doors.

The Pipe Shop at The Shipyards is absolutely beautiful. I recently organized a large event here and…read moreit was a dream venue. Right from the start, Kate, the venue coordinator, was fantastic to work with. I met with her about 4-5 months before my event for an initial walk through and fell in love with the space immediately. If you're interested in booking this spot, make sure you book well in advance since their available dates fill up very quickly. The open-warehouse concept is perfect for any kind of event. The space itself is about 9,000 feet, has got white walls, plenty of windows and doors, large wooden pillars and string lights hanging at the center of the space. Other than that, you had to use your creativity to design the space. They also have renovated men's and women's bathrooms, a storage closet to hide boxes and such, and a serving area if you're bringing in caterers. With its convenient location and beautiful features, The Pipe Shop is really a perfect spot to host your next event or wedding. Excited to host another event here in the future.

Definitely one of the nicest venues in town for stuff such as weddings…read more Parking is available along the side of the building (20 or so spots), as well as a large lot in the back. Sadly none of the spots are free. Guess the Park people have to eat. The venue looks quite good for a building that's over 100 years old. Very classic renovations. There is a garden in front of the building. The building itself is split into a larger room in front, and a smaller room in the rear. The rear room especially looks like something that can be used in a movie. The catering here is top notch. Probably some of the best steak and prawns I've had in recent memory. It was so beautiful. Most banquet halls have mediocre buffet food, but this is not one of them. Special mention. Definitely recommended if one needs a venue for a special event.

Bombay Banquet Hall is unique in the sense that the food is loved by the East Indian community and…read moretheir patio BBQ is really good. They have three halls? Two upstairs and one downstairs. The upstairs main hall is for parties over 500-600 people and the smaller hall upstairs holds about 400-500 depending on the layout and the events. The downstairs hall is small and I think it holds about a 100 people. The key to Bombay is to utilize the patio's when booking a hall upstairs. The patio also has an option for doing a BBQ, which I feel is the lure of the place. The smaller hall the stage doesn't move and is awkwardly placed in a corner.

So far the service is semi decent and the hall seems to be in good shape.
