Latest reviews from Vancouver
| 76 /100 Tap Union Freehouse (Bar) 1300 WASHINGTON STREET “Was here about 6 weeks ago. They have decent food and 24 taps + a backroom filled with a good size collection of beers, a lot of Fremont Brewing barrel-aged 22oz bottles. Decent sized place but only minimal parking, (have to find on street. [metered]).“ |
| 64 /100 Brewed Cafe & Pub (Bar) 603 MAIN STREET “This is a coffee place in the morning and a beer place in the afternoon and evening, although you can probably get either one more or less any time. Just six taps, one of which is a cider, but they're all local and well chosen. Crowded all the time, but it's on two levels, and maybe people queuing are just getting coffee to go. The breakfast food is worth waiting for, since service can be slow when they're crowded, especially on weekends. Another of the many beery downtown options.“ |
| 82 /100 110 E 17TH STREET “Right next to Relevant Coffee, get it? A production facility with a few picnic tables inside and out, basic setup, but perfect. Small serving bar and that's it. Beers were very tasty. Occasional food truck. The coffee place has plenty of outdoor seating, some under cover, and lots of people with beers were sitting there when it got crowded. Shows B movies, silently with captions. Solid place.“ |
| 74 /100 1919 MAIN STREET “Their theme is nuclear armageddon, which is pretty unique. Long bar, long counter in the front plate glass window, and some restaurant tables. More than a dozen taps in a variety of styles, pretty tasty. No kids or dogs allowed. They have a permanent Thai food truck.“ |
| 70 /100 The Thirsty Sasquatch (Bar) 2110 MAIN STREET “This place has three parts to it: Thirsty Sasquatch is the bar, Hungry Sasquatch is a piza place and there is an arcade in between. All three are small and can fill up rapidly any night. Tone of kids and hi volume in the Hungry part and the arcade. Multiple beer coolers on the Hungry side. Pizza is large NY style, though not as large as Jumbo Slice in DC. Worth a look.“ |
| 56 /100 700 WASHINGTON ST. “Small corner storefront sort of place, surrounded by residential apartments. Serving bar and some restaurant tables with good sidewalk views. Twenty ciders on offer, all sweet and fruited except two. One fruited cider in bourbon barrels had a bit of complexity to it, but none were really remarkable. Some ciders had names like Mango Lemonade so I'm not sure how cidery they are, I didn't order those. Flights of four, six or eight possible, or full pours of course. Proprietress was extremely gruff and rude, both with the guy ahead of me and with me, as if we were both wasting her time. But them some regulars came in and she was all hugs and kisses, and sat at the table with them. Food is flatbread, but I didn't see anybody eating so neither did I. Strange vibe.“ |
| 78 /100 507 COLUMBIA STREET “Decent sized taproom, looks lik an old storefrotnt, with the brewhouse visible in the back near the restrooms. Serving corner on a long bar with stools. Many many taps, a large variety of styles, not dominated by hazies. Beers were tasty enough, but nothing exciting. Quick efficient service. Pub food was OK. Lots of boisterous tables, a fun place to hang out with friends.“ |
| 80 /100 5612 NE 119TH ST “Stopped in for lunch at their Feral location downtown. No visible brewhouse. Large place, bar on one end, large covered patio, restaurant tables throughout. No table service though, so you just line up and wait next to the bar to place your beer & food order. I sat at the bar, so I got priority over those in line. Flights are generally seven, but they charge you for each individual 4 ounce pour, so you can order as many or as few as you like. Beers were tasty with a large variety of styles. Food was good too, though both were pricey - I guess that's really the norm these days. Solid place.“ |
| 82 /100 Tap Union Freehouse (Bar) 1300 WASHINGTON STREET “Interesting place. Owner behind the bar is a British beer enthusiast who just installed a beer engine and has great plans for it. Large varied taplist had a handful of hoppy beers, some malty choices, sours, ciders and even a barleywine. Everything is in shaker pints, though they have 10 ounce glasses for just a buck cheaper. All staff are generous with samples. Food is sandwiches and tacos which were OK but not great. I could talk to the owner about beer all day long. Oh, bar downstairs and some bar tables. An upstairs that I haven't seen yet. Good sized patio with a fire pit. Solid place.“ |
| 76 /100 108 W. EVERGREEN BLVD. “A nice place to spend some time. Storefront sort of place with a long bar. Picnic tables in an open space between buildings with nesting birds flitting back and forth. Burger place next door that serves as their food hub. Bartendress was very friendly and had helpful suggestions. Tasty beers. Worth a look.“ |
| 74 /100 9811 NE 15TH AVE “Was there about 5 years ago and really enjoyed their beer, but food truck was only food, and it was just OK. Have had their beers at other locations and enjoyed them“ |
| 66 /100 2905 ST. JOHNS BLVD “Small place with a patio, 11 own beers on tap when I stopped by, tasty pizza (smallish though) OK beer“ |
| 64 /100 705 SE PARK CREST AVE D430, VANCOUVER, WA 98683 “Medium sized place, 14 own beers plus a cider and hard seltzer on tap when I visited, food truck was outside, friendly service, average beer, 5 oz tasters available“ |
| 74 /100 2905 ST. JOHNS BLVD “Have been to this place 3 or 4 times over the years. It's only about 5 miles from my house. There are other breweries that are closer that I enjoy more. Have a friend who really like this place and goes there every couple of weeks.“ |
| 80 /100 809 MACARTHUR BLVD “This was an old convenience store, and they use the coolers for a large assortment of different beers. The ambience is a little strange. Service is really good. Beer selection is great if you count the coolers. They have good pizza, but the other offerings are limited. My son played in a rock band with the owner, and he had been to our house when he was younger.“ |
| 76 /100 Ben’s Bottle Shop (Bar) 8052 EAST MILL PLAIN BLVD “Been here a few times. They have a full wall of coolers with a wide selection of beers + about 24 taps. The food is decent, but nothing special. Have found some good beers here and the staff was knowledgeable and helpful.“ |
| 76 /100 Total Wine & More - Vancouver, WA (Beer Store) 4816 NE THURSTON WAY “This the closest store that has a large selection of beer other than going to Portland. They have a pretty good selection of the larger NW breweries and a few of the smaller ones. About 1/4 of the store is beer of which 1/3 is individual bottles. They also have a selection of European beers.“ |
| 60 /100 BevMo! East Vancouver (Beer Store) 700 SE 160TH AVE “Been to the store 2 or 3 times in the last 5 years. They don't carry many single bottle items so that is why I don't go there very often.“ |
| 76 /100 The Thirsty Sasquatch (Bar) 2110 MAIN STREET “Was there about a month ago. Had pizza and beer. The pizzas are HUGE and a nice selection on draft. I found a De Garde Brewing beer, which being a very small brewery with a great reputation was surprising.“ |
| 74 /100 2905 ST. JOHNS BLVD “Brewery #7 on the Vancouver brewery crawl, thanks to my uncle. 9/13/23. Smallish place. Warehouse. Beers all good. Service fine. Liked the DB Cooper references. Sorry can't remember more. Was pretty drunk.“ |
| 72 /100 2315 MAIN STREET “Vancouver brewery tour #6. 9/13/23. Smallish inside. Service fine. Beers all good. Can't remember much else... was pretty drunk .“ |
| 70 /100 108 W. EVERGREEN BLVD. “Vacouver brewery tour #5. 9/13/23. Upscale vibe. Bartender helpful enough. Good bar food. A beer cheese dip w/ sausage and seasoned bread. Beers were solid.“ |
| 66 /100 650 WATERFRONT WY “Vancouver brewery tour #4, 9/13/23. RIght on the river which is nice. Pretentious feel to the place but that didn't extend to the staff thankfully. They were cordial and helpful. Didn't eat. Beers were all solid (tried 5). Beer and food both pretty pricy. Decent stop as it's an easy walk to other places.“ |
| 86 /100 507 COLUMBIA STREET “Vancouver brewery crawl stop #3, 9/13/23. Probably my favorite brewery in the state and the best of this trip. Warehousy vibe. Long bar. Some tables. Bartender helpful and friendly but a tad bit absent. Beers were all very good. Two flights of six. Finished it all (much to my chagrin later). All well balanced and well executed. Didn't eat but they have food. Prices OK. Highly recommended.“ |
| 72 /100 700 WASHINGTON ST. “Vancouver brewery (and cidery) crawl stop #2, 9/13/23. The corner of an office building--kinda corporate vibe. Clean, bright. Bartender was friendly. Didn't try the food but the pita pizza I saw the bartender make looked tasty. Expensive... flight of 6 was over $21. Ciders range from good to very good. Worth a stop if you like cider.“ |
| 70 /100 1109 WASHINGTON STREET “Vancouver brewery crawl, 9/13/23. Large place. Large bar, lots of tables, some kind of patio but it was closed for a private party. The potstickers I tried were nice and tasty. A ton of beers on offer. 50 or so (including a handful of guest ciders and their wines). I was able to make a flight of 7 and all 7 were good, with one or two standouts. I was honestly a bit alarmed by the vast quantity of options. Unfortunately the service wasn't great. Not terrible but very inattentive.“ |
| 74 /100 809 MACARTHUR BLVD “My uncle took be by here. Dark feel... dive or biker bar feel. Trivia night... it was packed. Staff friendly if a bit slow. Flight of six mostly good. Maybe some tweaks needed. Didn't eat. Also a bit of a bottle shop with decent prices. Lots of parking. Nice addition to Vancouver breweries.“ |
| 62 /100 Ben’s Bottle Shop (Bar) 8052 EAST MILL PLAIN BLVD “Interesting place. Beer bar and bottle shop. Decent selection if a bit haphazard. Decent draft selection. Didn't really interact with the staff. Kinda gruff and then absent, but it was near closing. Prices high, and seemed high for the area. Okay.“ |
| 76 /100 2200 NE ANDRESEN ROAD #B “Located in a building with an industrial vibe. Big patio out front. Decent sized inside. Small bar, lots of tables. Everything wood. Even the chairs with a wood-grain design plastic or vinyl. Bartender helpful and tried to get the Packers game on for me. Lots of beers on tap. Beers were all good, not great. Prices decent. Parking good.“ |
| 78 /100 2200 NE ANDRESEN ROAD #B “Medium size place with a patio, 15+ own beers on tap; taco food truck in front; friendly service, flights of 6 available“ |
| 82 /100 2200 NE ANDRESEN ROAD #B “Have been here a few times and usually get a flight. The bartender is always knowledgeable about the beers and friendly. Nice atmosphere and you can view some of the brew vats or sit outside if the weather is nice. Nice place to go for a beer and conversation. Usually not overcrowded either.“ |
| 64 /100 17707 SE MILL PLAIN BLVD. “Large, modern looking place, 20+ own beer on tap, friendly service, ok food, mediocre beer, reasonable prices, flights available, good wifi“ |
| 82 /100 5612 NE 119TH ST “This is my favorite brewery in Vancouver and have been here numerous times. Love their beers and the food is really good now as they had some problems with food quality when they first opened "The Feral House" which is their downtown location. I haven't had a beer from them that I didn't like. Some are better than others though.“ |
| 82 /100 4216 NE MINNEHAHA ST #108 “Have been there a few times as they make a really good pizza, though a little pricey. Had their Reuben pizza last night and it was really good.“ |
| 48 /100 1900 N.E. 162ND, STE. B107 “Medium sized place in a non descript strip mall; about 10 own beers on tap plus few wines and ciders; average food, not really worth revisiting“ |
| 72 /100 New Seasons Market - Fisher’s Landing (Grocery Store) 2100B SE 164TH AVE “A nice supermarket with a good beer selection. Much better than average selection of single cans.“ |
| 70 /100 BevMo! East Vancouver (Beer Store) 700 SE 160TH AVE “Large alcohol store, with an isle and a cooler full of beer. No many singles, mostly six-packs and cases.“ |
| 70 /100 Mav’s Taphouse (Restaurant) 108 W EVERGREEN BLVD “(New incarnation at this address) Medium size space with a patio, good beer selection with mostly OR and WA breweries represented, decent food, good WiFi, gets crowded on weekends. No flights presently but half pours are available.“ |
| 64 /100 Tap Union Freehouse (Bar) 1300 WASHINGTON STREET “Medium size space on two floors plus a patio, food menu mostly consists of small but tasty sandwiches; taps are mostly WA/OR, bottle shop on premises; unlimited $2 samples, WiFi“ |

| 74 /100 507 COLUMBIA STREET “Medium sized place plus a patio; NW decor; 13 own beers plus few guest and ciders on tap when I visited; few wines, fridge with some cans; good WiFi; good burgers; few vintage video games; very decent beer“ |
| 84 /100 17707 SE MILL PLAIN BLVD. “Been there a few times. Nice atmosphere, modern, great food, the last time we were there we had the pretzel sticks with dipping sauce. My wife and myself thought they were great. Have had great food all the times we've been there. Though one time we were there they had an almost full house and it was very noisy.“ |
| 80 /100 4216 NE MINNEHAHA ST #108 “Location is a kind of a industrial strip mall, I guess. Family style seating in the brewery nice little place. Good price and good house made selection with a couple guest taps.“ |
| 64 /100 507 COLUMBIA STREET “They have very good beer, but food and service was average, maybe due to the fact that they just started food service.“ |
| 86 /100 Mav’s Taphouse (Restaurant) 108 W EVERGREEN BLVD “like going to this place the food is excellent and the beer very good. Their beers are fairly high ABV and I like that type of beer.“ |
| 78 /100 1801 SE COLUMBIA RIVER DR “Large place with a patio overlooking the river, excellent happy hour prices, good beer“ |
| 72 /100 1900 N.E. 162ND, STE. B107 “Nice typical mall type McMenamins. Great service. Had a few decent brews. Similar food. Worth visiting for the beers and happy hour.“ |
| 28 /100 809 MACARTHUR BLVD “What a disappointing place this is. I was expecting heavy metal themes all around, but got almost nothing of the sort. The interior is a bit grungy, with plenty of seating, and they were playing classic rock (better than most places, but that’s not metal). Beers themselves are either infected or just not on the mark. Flights available, but a bit pricey, especially given the poor beer quality. Service is friendly enough, but don’t know anything about beer or metal. Don’t bother coming here.“ |
| 54 /100 Mav’s Taphouse (Restaurant) 108 W EVERGREEN BLVD “Nice little place, with a fairly small interior and a nice little patio. Lots of beer on tap -- about 1/3 of their own, the rest being guest taps. Very cheap flights of 6 ($7.59 included tax). Unfortunately the beer quality was quite poor, with several infections and general low off-notes. Wouldn’t recommend it due to the quality, but it’s good for some cheap ticks.“ |
| 72 /100 2315 MAIN STREET “Located on the heart of Vancouver’s main street, this was a great stop. 7 house beers on tap, mostly of very good quality. $1.50 per 4 oz. pour, making it great value too. Service was also friendly and helpful. One of the better stops in town. Recommended.“ |
