More infoTucked into the heritage Thea Koerner House on the west edge of campus, Koerner's is the UBC pub people mean when they say the campus has a soul. The patio is the draw: undercover, wrapped in trees, strung with lights, with a little stage that hosts live music and trivia through the week. Inside is dark wood and a genuinely good rotating tap list; the kitchen keeps it simple and local with fish tacos, nachos, and a solid burger. Prices are gentle, the crowd is easy, and it feels like a secret even when it's full.
