The Narrow Lounge

I missed this place twice trying to find it, but once I went in I was met with dim glowing lights, decorated walls and overall an awesome dark ambience. It's Halloween themed too which is a bonus. The area is not too big and the music was not too loud, in fact they were playing some pretty sick grungy music that I would have loved to catch the name of. The eats are very well priced and looked appealing, ranging from burritos to shareables. I enjoyed my cocktail and wish I could have gotten more. The service was amicable and really friendly! The bathroom was clean for my visit, and also had some artsy decorations. Overall, I really dig the style and design of this place. It stands out among the monotonous atmospheres of other run of the mill bars. I hope to bring more people here who would similarly appreciate cool sights and sounds.

We had an amazing time at this cute bar. Great drinks and prices. Loved the vibe

Happened to stroll into the Narrow tonight. The bartender Levi was exceptionally attentive. He immediately greeted us w a smile and an absolute fountain of cocktail knowledge that we could hardly comprehend. Everything we had was well above par, and were all sure that the cocktails tasted that much better b/c of the love Levi poured into it. New favourite spot:

I went based on Google recommendations because it looked so good. But the music was so loud you had to literally shout to be heard, and that was when the bar was only half full and it was early evening. If that's your vibe, I recommend the place. But if you value your ability to hear, give this one a pass. I didn't even stay to order. I was out to socialize, and that requires being about to hear people. If they change their music policy, someone please respond to this post! I really would like to try their menu!

Super cool and good drinks but the music was SO LOUD I could hardly hear the great staff and my company.

Didn't have any food, and cocktails were fine. The place is super dark, so everyone has to use their phone flashlight to see the menu. The music genre is usually punk rock and screamo, which is fine, but the volume is way too loud to hear the people even at your own table. Nice vibe but not recommended for larger groups of people or an intimate date unless you want to go deaf and lose your voice from yelling above the music.

Had an excellent time at the bar last night - we had nachos and a taco which super affordable, and some cocktails which were a reasonable price but also stupid good and clearly made with love. Our bartender, Lo, was obviously very knowledgeable and super happy to nerd out with us about ingredients. So much fun!!

My fav and best speakeasy in Vancouver serving delish cocktails late into the night. I agree its hard to find this spot but if you know to look for the redt light ul be fine. The minute you walk in I loved the vibe of this place. Spent 4 hours trying different cocktails and the bartender was a joy to chat with as well. We tried their chocolate old fashioned (not on the menu but the bartender made this one - amazing), cacao caliente, tsunami (my husbands fav - kept re-ordering this all night), trend setter (interesting take on espresso martini) & lavender gin fizz! We loved everything we ordered. Dint stay for food though but enjoyed our drinks. They have several tables here and I am sure it is packed on weekends. Highly recommend.
