The 515 Bar - Vancouver Cocktail Bar
No fancy gadgets, just the classics

Classically rooted.
Eclectic Music.
Humble Service.
Tucked away in the heart of downtown Vancouver, this intimate lounge serves as the city’s living room.
Steps from theatres and stadiums, it is a cozy space perfect for romantic dates or catching up with friends. Sip expertly handcrafted classic cocktails made with quality ingredients and a quiet devotion to the craft, paired with elevated bar snacks, all set to an atmospheric, eclectic soundtrack.
It is the perfect spot to start your evening or wind down with a late nightcap.
We’re a small bar, and we operate on a first come, first served basis.
