Huge, huge, huge fan of the Shebeen! I've been living in Vancouver for 4+ years now and have been…read morefrequenting the downtown nightlife scene for longer, and have never heard or been to the Shebeen up until a few weekends ago. One of my best friends was having her birthday party here and I was utterly confused that I'd never heard of this place, so much so, that I questioned her if it was the right spot..... I now admit, that I was in the wrong. The Shebeen is located through a little alley way behind the Irish Heather. You have to go through the actual restaurant to find it, so no wonder it's hard to find! It gave me total speakeasy feels. Our large group took over their little patio area pretty early on around 5:30pm and set up camp there until 10:30ish. It was fairly slow at the beginning, but as the night went on, the inside of the Shebeen filled up and this spot was bumpin'. They specialize in whiskys (hence their name), so I was ordering old fashioneds left and right. I did also have a gin and tonic or two at the beginning of the evening. The old fashioneds were some of my favourite I've had in Vancouver. You can also order food through the Irish Heather menu. After a few drinks, I needed to put some food in my body so I ordered the curry fries. Wow, wow, wow. I was in saucy fry heaven. I need more of this in my life. Honestly, I'd come back just for this. Our servers (we had two checking in on us throughout the evening), were ROCKSTARS! Before I even had finished my drink, they were already checking in and asking if we wanted another... this resulted me in never having an empty drink, which I definitely felt the next day. Now that this spot is on my radar, I'll be back more often. Thanks for a great evening and here's to many more, Shebeen!

We had planned on the beef roast dinner and I read reviews that they often sell out so...made the reservations and pre-booked the roast beef dinner...and glad we did. We were seated right away and I opted for a Guinness with the dinner...a perfect pairing with this dinner at this establishment. The Guinness came out pretty quick and the food came out shortly after...great job. They returned with gravy and a horseradish mayo...both so good. Covered everything with gravy and it made the presentation. The taste was great and loved the yorkie smothered in gravy. There was no issue with the service...they very regularly stopped by to see if we needed anything. This is a great deal for $25 for a full roast beef dinner and it was a very positive food experience. TIP: Make the reservation, come early and it's Sundays only.

It's pretty quiet when I come here for lunch. I like their random Sushi Plates, moreso when the sushi rice is actually the right texture. Sometimes rice is a bit dry/ almost old tasting. In general fish tastes fresh so that's a good thing. Not a big fan of the sushi tacos nor regular rolls. The one Cream Udon I've tried was on the smaller side but generous with the cream. Service wise, they do the basics ( seat you & serve you) but other than that, nothing out of the ordinary. Space is spacious and open. Booths and tables to accommodate larger groups.

The Aviation was possibly the best I've ever had; crisp and floral, the violet was just right. The floating lemon star was a bonus of adorableness.
