Late night happy hour in Vancouver runs at 12 restaurants in our late-night listings as of November 7, 2026, and 9 of them run it every night, most from 9 PM to close. Tap & Barrel has the cheapest published snack and drink, $5 tots or fries with a $5 highball, at all 3 of its Vancouver locations. JOEY Burrard has the longest weeknight window, 9 PM to a 1 AM close.

Below: the 12 deals in one table ranked by price, how late each branch stays open, which ones skip the weekend, what a table of four pays per person, and the rules (dine-in, seating, 19+) that decide whether you get the deal.

Which Vancouver happy hours run late at night?

The 12 fall into three schedules:

  • Every night (9): Tap & Barrel, Earls, LOCAL Public Eatery, Lucky Taco River District, Original Joe's, Cactus Club, JOEY, Moxies and Browns Socialhouse.
  • Sunday to Thursday only (2): Hapa Izakaya in Yaletown and Chop at Coal Harbour.
  • Friday and Saturday (1): The Rec Room Granville, with a separate late-night menu from 11 PM to 1 AM. Its offer page also names Thursday, but the venue's posted hours end at 10 PM on Thursdays, so we count it on Friday and Saturday only.

That leaves 11 late options from Sunday to Thursday and 10 on Friday and Saturday, when Cactus Club, JOEY and Earls Yaletown also push their start from 9 PM to 10 PM. For earlier deals on the two thinner nights, see Friday restaurant deals in Vancouver and Saturday restaurant deals in Vancouver.

These are the 12 deals on the late-night deals in Vancouver page. A few other happy hours on the Vancouver happy hour deals page also come back at 9 PM but are not in our late-night listings yet, so they are not ranked here. For afternoon happy hours ranked by their cheapest food, see our guide to cheap eats in Vancouver.

Late night happy hour in Vancouver: the 12 deals compared

Ranked by the cheapest published snack plus one drink in the late window, then by nights per week and Vancouver branches. Prices are dine-in, before tax. Chain prices come from each chain's published happy hour menu and can differ by branch. Restaurants that do not publish both a food and a drink price rank after those that do.

Tap & Barrel ranks first because both halves are fixed at $5 at all 3 branches (Olympic Village, Convention Centre and Bridges). LOCAL Gastown ties it at $10, but LOCAL's prices and late start vary by branch, and the Kitsilano and River District menus are not in our price data. Earls has $5 food at all 4 Vancouver locations but prices its drinks as discounts, not fixed amounts, so it ranks below the restaurants with two published prices.

How late does each Vancouver late night happy hour run?

Every deal here runs "to close", so the branch's closing time decides how long you get. Ranked by Friday and Saturday closing time, from posted branch hours as of November 7, 2026:

JOEY Burrard gives four hours on a weeknight. At the other end, Tap & Barrel Bridges and Lucky Taco River District close at 10 PM from Sunday to Thursday, leaving one hour, and Original Joe's Robson does the same on Sunday and Monday. If you want Tap & Barrel's $5 prices after 10 PM on a weeknight, Olympic Village stays open to midnight. Hapa Izakaya posts its hours as 5 PM to late, so it is not in the table.

Which Vancouver late night happy hours run every night?

Tap & Barrel's happy hour lists $5 well highballs (1 oz), $6 glasses of wine (6 oz), a $7 tequila paloma fizz and $10 margaritas. Food runs from $5 tots or fries and $10 snack-size burgers or gyoza to $15 wings or mac and cheese and pizzas from $17.50. The drink selection varies by location.

Earls runs it at all 4 Vancouver locations (Fir Street, Robson, Test Kitchen and Yaletown). It takes half off select cocktails (sangria, Aperol Spritz, Moscow Mule, margaritas, espresso martinis) and select bottles of wine, plus $3 off Stella Artois, Michelob Ultra and Rhino draft. Food goes from $5 fries and charred corn dip and $7 truffle fries to $16 pizzas, dumplings and petite steak frites.

The other seven every-night options, in short:

  • Original Joe's (Robson): every happy hour drink and snack plate is $10 or less, weekends and statutory holidays included: house wine, OJ's draught, highballs and margaritas, plus plates like spicy chicken bites, Baja fish tacos and a mini cheeseburger with fries.
  • Lucky Taco (River District only): tacos from $6.50 (spicy fried chicken, carnitas, mushroom tinga), $8 barbacoa, $6.50 sleeves of Strathcona lager and $7 sangria. The Kitsilano Lucky Taco is not part of this deal.
  • LOCAL Public Eatery (Gastown, Kitsilano, River District): $5 off all steaks, $2 off glasses of wine and $3 off margaritas and martinis, on top of the lager and chips above.
  • Cactus Club, Moxies, JOEY and Browns Socialhouse: none publishes late-night item prices on the branch pages we check. Cactus Club and Moxies list deals from $5, and Moxies adds half-price bottles of wine.

Which late night happy hours skip Friday and Saturday?

Hapa Izakaya in Yaletown runs Hapa Hour from 9 PM to close Sunday to Thursday, on top of its 5 to 6 PM window every day. Almost every item has a fixed price: a 14 oz draft for $5, 6 oz wine for $6, shochu sour highballs at $5 single or $8 double, then edamame for $8, takoyaki for $9, beef tataki, negitoro or lotus root gyoza tempura for $10, ebi mayo for $11, a spicy tuna roll for $12 and stone-bowl ishi-yaki rice for $13.

Chop's happy hour runs late at its only Vancouver branch, Coal Harbour, on Sunday to Thursday only (its afternoon window there is 2 to 5 PM). The drinks are the draw: $5 house wine (6 oz), $5 highballs per ounce, $5 zero-proof cocktails and $7.50 prosecco. Food starts at $16 for Sicilian hummus, so a snack and a drink cost about twice what they do at Tap & Barrel.

Which late night menu starts at 11 PM?

The Rec Room Granville is the only one of the 12 with a separate late-night menu rather than a second happy hour, and the only one that starts after 10 PM. From 11 PM to 1 AM it lists $5 shots (1 oz Olmeca Gold tequila or Smirnoff vodka), $10 appetizers (truffle fries, classic poutine, crispy or buffalo chicken bites) and $15 mains: four pizzas plus a fried or spicy chicken sandwich. The offer names Thursday to Saturday, but Granville's posted hours run to 10 PM on Thursday and 1:30 AM on Friday and Saturday, so plan on a Friday or Saturday. It applies at Granville only and cannot be combined with other offers.

Which late night happy hour saves the most?

For a group sharing plates, here is what a table of 4 pays per person on a sample order at listed prices, before tax and tip:

RestaurantSample order (table of 4)Per person
Tap & BarrelA $5 highball each; two $10 snack-size burgers shared$10
EarlsQueen Bee pizza ($20), dumplings ($16), fries ($5) and truffle fries ($7) shared; drinks extra$12 for food
Hapa Izakaya (Sun to Thu)A $5 draft each; edamame ($8), takoyaki ($9), beef tataki ($10) and an ishi-yaki bowl ($13) shared$15
The Rec Room (Fri and Sat)A $5 shot each; two $15 pizzas and two $10 appetizers shared$17.50
Lucky Taco River DistrictTwo $6.50 tacos and a $6 tequila shot each$19
Original Joe'sOne drink and one snack plate each$20 or less
Chop Coal Harbour (Sun to Thu)A $5 house wine each; hummus ($16), steak bites ($18), birria spring rolls ($19) and half a dozen oysters ($27) shared$25

Tap & Barrel stays cheapest for a group too, $15 a head less than Chop. At Tap & Barrel, Hapa Izakaya, Lucky Taco and The Rec Room most items carry a set price, so you can total the bill before you order.

Percentage deals scale with what you pick instead: Earls takes half off select bottles of wine, Moxies lists half-price bottles, Tap & Barrel takes 50% off select bottles and LOCAL Gastown takes 51% off all bottles. Our listings do not carry regular bottle prices, so the saving depends on the bottle.

Late night happy hour rules in Vancouver: dine-in, seating and 19+

  • Dine-in only, all 12. None of these late-night prices apply to takeout or delivery.
  • Seating limits. Earls and JOEY limit happy hour to lounge, bar and patio seating, and Chop's menu limits it to the lounge and patio.
  • Later starts on weekends. All 4 Vancouver Cactus Clubs, both JOEYs and Earls Yaletown start at 10 PM on Friday and Saturday, and LOCAL starts at 9 or 10 PM depending on the branch.
  • Branch limits. Lucky Taco's deal is River District only, The Rec Room's is Granville only, and Chop's Coal Harbour late window runs Sunday to Thursday.
  • Holidays. Earls excludes select holidays and events, and LOCAL's happy hour may vary or be excluded on statutory holidays. Original Joe's says its happy hour runs on statutory holidays.
  • No app needed. None of the 12 lists an app or loyalty account as a condition. LOCAL and Original Joe's do run member perks such as birthday rewards, compared in our guide to restaurant loyalty programs in Canada.
  • 19+ for drinks. In BC a minor is anyone under 19. Minors may eat in restaurants, but staff cannot serve them liquor and should ask for two pieces of ID when they doubt a guest's age; a combined BC Driver's Licence and Services Card counts as one piece, under the province's Food Primary licence terms (opens in a new tab).
