BierCraft Bistro recently launches a new menu, and they are available across three locations – Commercial Drive, Cambie, and Westbrook Village (UBC). The original beer bar is known for its extensive selection of craft and imported beer, particularly the Belgian beer. Few weeks ago, I was invited to try the new menu, and I visited the Cambie location for its spacious interior and sun-laden patio seating.
Biercraft bills itself as Vancouver’s original Beer Bar and they have three locations across Greater Vancouver. The have an extensive selection of craft and imported beers from around the world, with an emphasis of Belgian beer. They recently revamped their menu, so I dropped by with my friend Rick to check it out.
Great find.
Staff are friendly, decor is unique & you get a side of popcorn (the special spice mix/seasoning will make you drool!) with your drink order.
My recommendations- Brussel sprouts hash with bacon is a definite must.
Bottom line: This is a pretty great place to chat. There weren't too many TVs which can be a distraction for some people. Service was great, the beer selection was phenomenal, and the popcorn is a nice touch. I've heard good things about their food too so I'll have to try that next time. . Out the door price: $40 including tip

Visiting our son for a layover between Hawaii and Ottawa. He recommended the Bier Craft Bistro. We had the beer braised chicken. It we delicious and the service was excellent. It has a great beer choice and a very comfy pub atmosphere. I would recommend this bistro
Kicking off Dine Out Vancouver this year for us was Biercraft Bistro. I had always wanted to try Biercraft but always forgot about them, so when I saw that they were participating in Dine Out and offering a $30 menu, it was a go!. Biercraft Bistro’s pre-meal snack was seasoned popcorn!. The appetizer version of Biercraft’s Salt Spring Island Marinier Mussel and Kennebec Frites was delicious. I couldn’t stop slurping up the garlic, shallots, white wine, fresh herbs, monte au beurre broth but boy was it garlicky! There was so much garlic AngryRussian actually thought there were orzo in the broth 😂!
One-liner: A very filling $30 Dine Out Vancouver option with some of the best service during this busy season
Highlight: Duck Confit
Recommended order: Duck Confit, Bouillabaisse, and Chocolate Torte
Would I go back? Yes.

Food here is always good. The seafood is always cooked perfectly and not over seasoned. Never had a bad experience here in terms of service or food quality. Price is reasonable.
It was my husband birthday. He picked this restaurant so he can drink different beers. They don't accept reservation for 8 or more after 6pm so we had to come early and save 4 seats thats coming at 7. 4 of us first start drinking while waiting other 4 to come. The waitress is nice. The food is actually so so. To be honest, it's my first time drinking french onion soup and have no clue it should be salty LOL LOL its soooo salty. I had to get my husband to drink it all. I had veggie sandwich (didnt take pic of it) , it was not bad. Too bad they don't serve yam fries.
Was a spontaneous after work drinks session. Made it on time for the happy hour and was quite pleased with the service, price and quality of food. It's a beer place with a great selection but I was quite surprised how good the tacos were.
I really like this location. I come in every week or two and there are always new selections on tap....very nice selection of local brews and everything tastes fresh. Food and service are also great. See you soon.
Love this spot! Great service and very reasonably priced drinks. there was live music on Wednesday which really added to the warm atmosphere of the place. Also impressed by their ability to accommodate for plant based/vegan dietary restrictions so easily - will definitely be coming back!
The mussels were amazing! Our server suggested some French fries to soak up some of the mussel broth. That was a good call. The artichoke dip with taco chips was very good. The taco chips seemed home made and fresh. They were much thicker than your typical chips you would buy in a store. The selection of beer is outstanding!
The exterior renovation is very nice. I almost drove right past looking for the yellow building and sign. Much sleeker now. Loads of outdoor seating options which is very nice. Reliably good pub food. I had the beefy mac and cheese. Delicious and really stick to your ribs cheesy. The yam fries were perfect. My dining partner had his usual, the beef dip with a side Ceasar salad. It looked yummy too. Street parking usually not a problem. Great neighbourhood spot.
