Gastown's Pourhouse Does the Season Right with Cocktail Countdown!

The countdown is on to the new year, and Kitchen Table Restaurants acclaimed Pourhouse is getting into the spirit with a playful 12 Days of Cocktails offering. Toast to the last days of 2022 with daily themed drinks inspired by the classic carol, with the last day landing – fittingly – on New Year’s Eve.

Hailed as one of Canada’s Best Bars of 2022, Gastown’s Pourhouse is the perfect spot for those in search of a little holiday revelry. Sip and savour the season with libations concocted by the creative and innovative Pourhouse team until the year’s end.

Just like the song, Pourhouse’s 12 Days of Cocktails begins with a Partridge in a Pear Tree (Cointreau, Sotol, lemon, dash chocolate bitters, orange twist & cherry), and they will be pouring clever creations all the way through to those dozen Drummers Drumming (Aberfeldy 12, Amaro Montenegro, Lonetree Cider). Bring your true love, and your best pals, or treat yourself. The full roster awaits you at Pourhouse.

The History of Pourhouse

Launched in a turn-of-the-century heritage building in the heart of Gastown in 2009, Pourhouse quickly established itself as one of Vancouver’s most beloved bars and restaurants thanks to its signature approach to cocktails and mouthwatering comfort food, authentic décor and warm, convivial atmosphere. Rechristened in 2021, Pourhouse builds on that rock-solid reputation and takes the restaurant in a delicious new direction by introducing new gourmet dishes available for dine-in or to-go service seven days a week in addition to a catalogue of classic and contemporary cocktails and an expansive list of wines.
