In other words, it's not quite where the illuminated sign is, which is quite misleading. I had to walk around for a couple of minutes outside in the cold to find the entrance.

As who the heck carries their actual passport around to buy groceries and swing by to grab wine right? And not everyone drives so not necessarily has a drivers license. And these people. They get it! I was recently at another store (different company) and they not only wanted a drivers license but one more photo ID hello I only have a BCID and passport and I'm not carrying my passport daily for errands. It was ridiculous. Oh and the fact the BCID was expired. Um expired or not does not change my age that's stated on the card . So glad west coast understands. The purpose of asking for ID is to verify my age. I should not need to carry my entire portfolio of ID and credentials to get a bottle of wine not at 39 years old anyways I will always come here.

Stopped in here with a friend for a drink and bite to eat on a Saturday night. It was really busy…read morewith almost no empty tables. We were fortunate enough to snag a tiny one by the pool tables but it wasn't big enough for food and drinks so we ended up moving before ordering food. We shared a small plate of nachos and a chicken wrap with fries. I don't recommend the guacamole, as it wasn't very fresh and just had a weird texture. The food was very average in my opinion. At least they have a decent beer list. They had karaoke and there was a steady stream of people waiting to take their turn on the microphone. Those folks were much braver than me, that's for sure. I love that they still have pull tab machines, those are always going to take some of my money, if for nothing else but the nostalgia. I ended up winning a few bucks, so that added to the overall positive experience. Service was ok - there seemed to be a bit of confusion over who our server was, but once that was resolved, we had no issues. It was fairly loud but not so much that we couldn't still carry on a conversation. I'd probably go back, because there are not too many places in the area that still have a pool table.

I thought, "There has got to be a pub nearby which will by default carry that game, right?" Well, yes, that's technically correct, although it took me about a two kilometer walk from the Element Vancouver to find one. Once there, I was a tad surprised the place wasn't hopping - maybe a dozen or so other patrons. Which was too bad, because the service was friendly, the beer hit the spot, and my veggie burger kept me going through the rest of the night. Would return the next time I visit the area.

There are two employees at the store and it is kind of strange how they are constantly asking if I need help.

Due to location, this BC Liquor Store is one of the liquor stores I most frequent. Of course it…read moredoesn't have the vast selection of the large Signature stores, but it's a standard government liquor store, and a pretty good one at that. No issues, except for one cashier (who no longer works there) who made rude and unnecessary comments about my appearance 11 years ago when I went to pick up some wine on my birthday. (I age well, get over it -- no need to be rude because you're jealous because you look like a hag with frizzled hair). And for the most part, I can usually find what I want (sometimes they sell out of an item when it's on sale -- grrr!). It's also located in the same lot as Safeway, so it's convenient to grab a bottle of wine when you go grocery shopping. (BC has archaic liquor laws that do not allow alcohol sales in most grocery stores, so this is as convenient as it's going to get.) I'm rating this store four stars, and the next part has no bearing on the rating or store. **CREEP ALERT** On Friday May 17th, just after 6pm (around 6:04pm), I was walking through the parking lot after having purchased some wine for dinner. As I was walking through the parking lot, trying to get to the street, there was a car driving slowly near me. It was travelling in such a manner which made it difficult for me to decide which direction and how fast to walk without getting hit or getting in the way of the driver, as he was blocking the main exit and driving really slowly. And when I changed my pace and the direction I was walking to exit via a different route, the driver would continue to drive slowly without clear indication of which direction he was travelling, so that I risked getting hit no matter which direction I walked -- straight ahead or left, my only two options. At first I thought it was just some douchey driver whose indecisiveness about which direction to drive made it annoying and dangerous for nearby pedestrians, but after I was visibly trapped, lest I risk getting hit, the asshole stopped his car, blocking the main exit, and said, "Where are you going? Do you want a ride?" **OH HELL FUCKING NO!** I immediately yelled at him to FUCK OFF (I sure as hell wasn't going to get into his rape-mobile), and the moment I pulled out my phone to take a photo of his license plate, Mr. Rapey sped off like a bat out of hell. He didn't just quickly drive off -- he got the hell out of there as fast as he could, as if he were afraid of something, a huge overreaction if he were really an innocent guy. Unfortunately I was not able to get a photo of his license plate, nor do I recall the type of car (I think it was a dark colored car), as I was busy trying to get the license plate and a good look at the creep. But I do recall that that first two letters were PD, the licence plate had a green background instead of the standard white, there was an L sticker on the back (L stands for "learner" and there are several restrictions on that type of license, the first in our province's "graduated licensing" program), the creep was Caucasian and fairly tanned, in his 30s or 40s with shaved or close cropped hair, and wearing a dark blue suit (he looked like a twat who spends a lot of time in tanning salons and getting manicures), all details I reported when I called the non-emergency police line. I reported the incident because his behaviour was suspicious, inappropriate, and fucking creepy as hell, and it's important to report seemingly small incidents, in case there are other incidents in the area. I doubt that this is the first time he tried to lure a woman (or perhaps even a child) into his car. I also let my female friends who live in the neighbourhood know about what happened. If I ever see this creep or the car again, I will be calling 911 immediately. Sleazebags who harass women should not be allowed to get away with that behaviour. Jasmine 1, creep 0.

Location: Located Lougheed Hwy @ Bainbridge, it's behind an old pub 1/2 from Lougheed, lots of free parking. 1/2 block from bus line, 7 min walk down Lougheed to Holdom skytrain station. Easy peasy for all. Hours: This place is open until 11 pm- later than ALL in this area. Service: Freaking 5 stars. I've pulled up at 10:55 pm, right after work, under the wire- ZERO attitude, ZERO "we're closing in 5 minutes" lecture, NO intense staring by the counter staff who can't wait to get the hell off shift in 5 minutes. Selection: Um, freaking fantastic. Tons of wine, lots of coolers packed full of beer, wine, cider, everything in between beer, wine and cider. Wine up the wazoo, hard liquor in all shapes and sizes, at surprisingly low, suburban rates. No $6 single cans here! The space: *CLEAN* no sticky floors, everything neat and tidy, smelling of fresh Febreeze Air-Linen-Sky, so lovely. Staff: Incredibly polite, sincerely happy and very efficient at getting you in and out in 5 minutes, or 30 minutes (if that's your jam) ~ whatever floats your boat. I'm pretty fussy about cleanliness, having items and stock, and customer service, and Bainbridge Liquor ticks off all these boxes, with a sweet smile. Not sure what the past low ratings are about, but in 2024 this is my go-to store for service, selection and price.
