Very warm and welcoming place to sit down and visit friends, eat a great dinner, or watch the game with a beer. Staff are very friendly and the place is well decorated for the mood. Top notch establishment.
As someone who lives in the neighbourhood, saying The Charlatan is a place I gravitate to more than any other for some food and drink on the drive, says a lot. Great place for both :)
Went there for the first time last evening. Wow, what a find. Fantastic food, staff and atmosphere. Extremely reasonable prices for the quality dishes they serve. Definitely worth checking out!!
The best place in commercial & creative chalk murals! ��

Love this place. Favorite place to go on The Drive. Great selection of beers and the food is awesome.
One of my favourite hang out. Love the crew there. Big Love! ��
Great deal burger and a beer
One-liner: Spotty service at a otherwise cozy bar with a juicy burger
Highlight: Bacon Cheeseburger
Recommended for: Dark lounge and burger lovers
Would I go back? Yes but I’d skip the poutine.

I seem to always end my nights at commercial here. I always find you can't go wrong with taking your company over to Charlatan. Something about this place makes everyone within the place a little more friendly as well. Great drink options and burgers are decent. Could use a little more staff around though. Friday nights are great here!
I Enjoy the Charlatan. Decent food for a pub and great specials all week long. The atmosphere is pretty laid back and the servers are sassy enough to be fun and efficient enough to keep your thirst quenched. Try the burger and a pint of Driftwood.
Great atmosphere amazing double caesars. People make the ambiance of a place and this place is loud and wonderful to hang out with friends, They have a great selection of beer on tap and amazing Caesars. Food is great, sometimes it is really good but sometimes it is just acceptable, It depends on the chef on shift i guess, very good service for a pub/bar we get constantly checked on drinks and water. A great place on Commercial Drive
Good place for a brew. Like going to this place for the game sometimes! They have a really nice veggie burger and their daily specials are great!
My Go-To Place. I've been here twice, on a Sat and Wed, and had a great time on both occasions. Staff and service are speedy and friendly, and the patrons are easy-going. This is one of the few clean and classy drinking establishments in Vancouver where I can strike up a conversation with a stranger (guy or girl) and not get the cold shoulder like you get in Yaletown. I have only eaten the wings and poutine here so far but they are good and the selection of beer is decent. LOVE!
Charlatan...good.. I like this place...lots. The staff are always super friendly when we go and the wings are pretty tasty. Also, can't complain about the beer selection. Jesse, keep up the good work.
I haven't had food here besides fries, so I can't comment in the food, but I find that the service here is stellar. From the moment I walk in (whether it be late night or early evening), the service is always super friendly. Everyone here knows how to do their job.
We ate here on a whim on friday night and we were pleasantly surprised by the service, pricing and food. It is right in the heart of the Drive with a great vibe. We ordered the edamame and chicken pancetta burger. Fries are really crispy and tasty and the burger had a nice blend of flavors held together by a sweetish bun. The edamame was seasoned with sesame oil. It was a little oily than I would have liked, but otherwise delicious.
We met at The Charlatan, enjoying some of the most delicious, meaty 50 cent hot wings ever with 1516 beer special on tap.

They did a nice renovation as The Charlatan is dark wood and leather booths. Very cozy. There are 3 levels with the top being a bar stool and TV level. Down some stairs and there are booth seats. Down some more stairs and there is another bar and some more tables that would be great for a priva
