Craft Beer Market Vancouver

3szy204dmCraft-Beer-MarketCraft beer market Vancouver is located at 85 west 1st avenue in Olympic Village.  Housed in the Salt Building which was built in 1930, the restaurant features high ceilings, rustic wood trusses and a vintage feel. The multifaceted venue features floor to ceiling windows and a stunning central island bar on the main level as well as a private dining room and two raised mezzanines.

With so many options to choose from it can be quite overwhelming, however every two weeks they change up their 2 sampler packs.  You can choose from the local pack or Around the world.  I highly recommend around the world.

What would a beer market without traditional pub fare!  Here we have what I would consider the king of appetizers.  This beauty is known as Cheeseburger Sushi.  Delicious hamburger meat with cheese wrapped in bacon!

I can’t say enough about this place.  I need to go back again and again so I can try every beer they have!  Although that would take awhile in one sitting.  The service and the atmosphere is phenomenal and the beers are delicious!  Every Tuesday they tap a cask at 4pm so get there early to get in on that.  Check out their website for upcoming events and if you have a birthday coming up I highly recommend going here as they give you a discount based on how your age!  Can’t wait for my free 100 year old birthday meal!

One side note, their commitment to sustainability is amazing.  Read about it here.
