The Black Frog serves Gastown's best free entertainment: a window seat aimed straight at the steam clock and the tourists puzzling out what a steam clock is even for. The bar is cheerfully unpretentious, cheap-ish cocktails and a proper beer list, with live music and comedy nights. Grab the corner, narrate the circus outside, and let Friday drift to 2am.
