While there are a number of places to take advantage of happy hour in Vancouver, few compare with the inspired selection at Brix & Mortar.

For one, the offerings include a much wider variety of dishes than you'd find on many happy hour menus in the city. Moreover, they don't skimp on portion size, and you pay roughly half the price that you would during regular hours for the same food.

For example, Brix & Mortar offers mouthwatering, AAA beef tenderloin beef tartare with scrumptious grilled focaccia for $16 through the week. However, during happy hour, you may indulge in this gourmet flavour explosion for only $8.

Similarly, the menu features a truly enormous bowl of steamed, yummy mussels for the same price. The generous portion also comes with house-made chorizo sausage in a delectable, rustic tomato broth that is seasoned to perfection with tarragon, cilantro and parsley.

Happy hour also offers bourbon and chicken liver plate, seasonal arancini, crispy gelderman Farm Pork Belly, tofu karage, mushroom toast and an artisanal cheese plate.

They also offer incredible discounts on cocktails and other beverages that usually cost a pretty penny. In fact, their fancy cocktails are featured for less than half the price. So, if you've ever wanted to try one of their intriguing $14 cocktails, but weren't quite ready to spend that much money, this is the prefect time to take advantage of the deal.

One of their cocktails, The Notorious P.I.P., is described as, "A housemade popsicle served in a glass of Mionetto Prosecco. Your Instagram will thank you! Rotating flavors, please ask your server or bartender. From the famous words of B.I.G. himself, "Learn to treat life to the best, put stress to rest". ~ Biggie Smalls."

Further, they offer 30% off of wines under $100, which is a great value for sharing.

Brix & Mortar is also located in a beautiful, heritage brick building in the heart of Yaletown. Known for its spacious patio, its hard not be impressed by the luminous chandeliers as well as the emerald vines that cascade down its brick walls. Further, the patio is heated and covered, so it offers greater seasonality.
