⚽ Local Tips for World Cup 2026

  • The upstairs lounge has the best sightlines for multiple games — grab stairs early on double-header days.
  • Happy hour runs weekdays 3–6 PM; good window for a pint before an evening kick-off at BC Place.
  • From Pender & Seymour it's ~8 minutes on foot to Stadium–Chinatown station, then one stop to BC Place.
  • Mini burger trio + craft pint is the move if you didn't eat on the flight in.
  • Book nothing — but for knockout rounds, send someone ahead by 90 min to hold a booth.

✍️ Editor's pick — Aleks

Underrated for groups who need space upstairs and still want proper pints.

About Malone's Taphouse

Malone's splits personality across two floors: ground-level pub buzz and an upstairs that's quieter but still tuned to the TVs. The tap list leans craft without being pretentious — you can get a lager and not feel judged.

Granville Street location means you're in the middle of downtown foot traffic, which is perfect when your group is staying at a hotel on Georgia or Robson. I've used it as a rally point before walking the last stretch to BC Place together.
