More infoThe Bard and Banker lives inside the old Bank of British Columbia, a room of soaring ceilings, chandeliers and polished brass that has known it was beautiful for a long time. Then you notice the 30 taps, a serious whisky list, and live music every night with no cover. Find a corner, let a local act do the heavy lifting, and measure time in 'one more song' until 1am.
Step into the old Bank of British Columbia, chandeliers, soaring ceilings, polished brass, and find a corner while a local act handles the soundtrack, free every single night. Work the 30 taps or pick something off the mile-long whisky list. It's open till 1am, so 'one more song' actually means something; give it a couple of hours and let the grand room make staying out feel like the obvious move, not the risk.
