Located on the south-eastern edge of Vancouver’s scenic False Creek seawall, The Wicklow is an Irish-infused modern West Coast pub. While the menu features many delicious (though not very Irish) selections, the pub does provide several original takes on Irish classics as well – such as their Guinness Irish Stew, Guinness Chili and Classic Burger with Guinness cheddar and Dijon mayo. The Wicklow is the perfect place to cap off a brisk walk on the seawall with a proper pint.

Doolin's Irish Pub

At Doolin’s, the décor feels traditional but the beverage choices swing from post-work drinks to rowdy shots. Located at 654 Nelson Street just off of Granville Street, Doolin’s Irish Pub is a reliable stop for a quiet pint and a look at the sports highlights after a day at the office. But once dusk turns to dark, Doolin’s becomes one of the Granville Entertainment District's most happening live music spots.
