East Van Brewing Company

As others mentioned, the atmosphere at the East Van Brewing Company in Vancouver is fantastic. I’m more of a drinker of spirits but I ended up enjoying the community lager (if I’m not mistaken, they called it that). Not a bad spot to watch the Vancouver sunset too. Great music too. East Van Brewing Company is a great spot for drinks and we’d definitely visit them again!

Came for Salty's lobster combo. Was delicious and made my day.

Had a jasmine rice lager which went down very smoothly and had nice hints.

Outside seating was plentiful.

They have a variety of fresh brews and also serve food. I tried an eclectic flight and the featured lobster sandwich roll. In all it was a primo date night.
They also have some cool merch and beers (cans or growlers) to go.

Very convenient spot close to the start of Commercial, with outdoor seating and a huge indoor space (top and bottom levels). There’s cool art hanging around for sale and amazing (rock) music. Saltys the lobster shack is the restaurant portion of this brewery and the lobster rolls are AMAZING. We ordered a grilled cheese, a Maine (cold) lobster roll full order and a half order lobster roll with bisque that came with a huge chunk of lobster! Everything was delicious albeit a tad salty but thats okay, I just drank more beer ;)

Beers here were pretty good! I tried the jasmine rice beer (same one sold at the Lunch Lady, a highly recommended Vietnamese restaurant on Commercial) which was very light, and also the Hef. Would try their pale ale next time when we’re back!

Saltys had last call just before 8pm on Sunday but the brewery still serves snacks (like sausages) afterwards so just a heads up!

Will definitely come back!

Loved this spot! Atmosphere abs decor was super cool and the staff there was very friendly. We ordered the flight of beer to try out different options and we were not disappointed. Our table also ordered the flight of pickle, while I’m not a pickle fan, I thought that was a great idea! We also ordered lobster rolls from the Salty’s food truck that’s inside this brewery. That was quite enjoyable as well! We had a great time with our friends there. Would recommend uk anyone looking for a chill place with good food and beer!
