The Keefer Bar - Vancouver, British Columbia

I had heard so much about this place and it did not disappoint! The entire experience of being here was pleasant through and through. The cocktails delivered big time! We got wood & whimsy and overnight crush. Overnight crush is probably one of the best cocktails I’ve had in my life. ... The fruity notes and mix of pleasing flavours was like a party in my mouth. Wood &whimsy was slightly more boozy and I quite enjoyed this one as well. This bar also has a selection of food options, we got the assorted nuts and vegetarian steamed buns. Both were good as finger food options, nothing too extraordinary. The sauce with the buns was a banger though. The service was good. This is one of the few places where even the gate attendant was a nice fellow. He greeted us cordially and let us in after checking our ids. We got a table soon after and our server was around and kept checking on us frequently. There was no themed music on Saturday but the songs played lived upto the hype. The interiors are rather interesting and the red lights are a welcome reminder of the chinatown roots. Overall we had an exceptional night and are definitely going to take our friends with us!

We were visiting from out of town and happened upon this place and it was such an experience ! The people were friendly, service great and they had a DJ going on a Sunday. The drinks were interesting and so tasty, in particular the overnight crush was one of the ... best drinks I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to return here next time we are in town! Read more

Lovely atmosphere, cozy and dark. Just a little loud if you want to have an intimate conversation, maybe sit at the bar rather than a table. Drinks were 10/10, service and great soup dumplings!

It’s probably the best cocktail bar in the area which provides innovative cocktails that are refined, delicate, and balanced in taste. The drinks were not too overpowering yet had a very rich flavour. The keefer bar also offered a vibrant and pleasant ambiance, busy but not crowded, tho the service ... could’ve been improved as we felt they’re aloof. All in all, would definitely recommend this bar to anyone who seeks original cocktails. Read more

A lot of young people at this bar. Servers are pretty chill. They serve food as well. The drink menu is very interesting. I tried a couple of them and I enjoyed them a lot. The only thing is the neighborhood is full of hobos... I don't feel comfortable in this neighborhood. A ... couple blocks away and the town becomes unpleasant. Still a cool bar. Best to Uber there instead of parking a nice car. Read more
