My personal favourite for a happy hour (between 3-6pm) and some fresh $1 oysters and excellent $5 wine. I go there with my girlfriends a lot. Aim for the patio upstairs, its classy and beautiful! (They don't take reservations for happy hour, so there might be a line) ($$$)

If you're into dancing and meeting people this is a good place to spend a night out. I am not personally into the bar scene, but if you are, I would recommend to explore Gastown for some great bars and dancing.
