- B in VJune 18, 2014If you're here for whisk(e)y – either neat or as part of amazing cocktails – then be sure to head out back to the hidden Shebeen bar. Ask for Randy. (see my separate tip on Shebeen's page)
EaterOctober 7, 2013The ideal combination of Anglo-Irish pub-grub and vibe with locally-sourced and lovingly prepared B.C. ingredients. The bangers and mash are excellent, nothing beats the pies. [Eater 38 Member]
Tom BiroSeptember 18, 2018Ask for a recommendation based on your tastes. They're pretty good at accommodating.
Ben EngenNovember 4, 2019Bit upscale for an Irish Pub in my book but the whiskey selection is excellent.- Great whiskey selection, and the bangers and mash was delicious I!
Weegee ManloveFebruary 11, 2012Good brew - amazing food. If you are looking for a traditional Guinness or Irish breakfast on the weekend, this is your place.
Nick SerbedzijaMarch 20, 2016Good irish food. Solid drink selection. Way more of a sit down place than its next door neighbor.
john poyserSeptember 10, 2009mash is my fave - save the fries for the curry dip they serve here too. The bangers & mash and fish & chips are awesome as well. Unmatched scotch selection too. Love the Heathers
Incredibly extensive whisk(e)y menu. If the front is busy, head to Shebeen in the back
Bryan ClarkOctober 16, 2011Good Irish pub but you really want to head to the Whiskey house in the back
Nomadic ChickJanuary 17, 2010Great Irish eats and European Beer. The atmosphere is nicely placed in Gastown - historic part of Vancouver. Read more
Bucky is legendary. Pours a mean pint of black and tips the tyrconnell with precision.
Try the Croque Madame sandwich at lunch. Not heart smart but very tasty
Ask for the "classic" Heather Pot Pie which comes on a bed of mashed potatoes instead of fries and combine it with a Guinness.
Alexis WarburtonAugust 18, 2010If insure of your choice of whiskey, ask for recommendations, they are excellent!
Go to the Heather. Have a pot pie, but be sure to order it with the fries, not the mashed potatoes. Wash down with a Guinness.
- andrew marley-clarkeMarch 14, 2010Long table series - pay with your iPhone, it's the coolest! Ask them how?
Jacqueline L.December 29, 2012Why are you checking in here? You should be at Shebeen (at the same address) instead.
R RJanuary 29, 2011Servers were really nice, but the service of food and beer was painfully slow. The Heather Fries with Curry was okay, but the Bangers and mashpotatoes did not please me.
DeborahJanuary 28, 2011Fries are really crispy but comes with curry. It would have been better with gravy. Service very slow. Pot pie is only ok.
Karen HamiltonSeptember 18, 2009Book a Long Table Series dinner in October before they all sell out!
