Vancouver
The area's loudest and proudest gay neighborhood pub, this friendly joint is all about the patio, which spills onto Davie St like an overturned wine glass. Take part in the ongoing summer-evening pastime of ogling passersby or retreat to a quieter spot inside for a few lagers or a naughty cocktail: anyone for a Crispy Crotch or a Slippery Nipple?
The perfect place to meet up before, during or after the annual Pride Parade.
