Getting Here

🚇 Transit

This location is a bit of a trek from the nearest SkyTrain stations, so we recommend bussing. Hop on a bus running along Commercial Drive, Clark Drive, or Hastings Street and prepare for a 5-10 minute walk through the brewery district.

🚗 Parking

Free street parking is generally available in the surrounding light-industrial area. It can be competitive on weekday afternoons but typically frees up considerably during evenings and on weekends.

Details sourced from Google, venue websites, Instagram, and public data. Vibes, highlights, and recommendations reflect our editorial perspective.
