• Gastro pub • Commercial Drive

What is St. Augustine's? A casual spot on The Drive with 60+ taps - many from locally sourced microbreweries (would you expect any less from a place named after the patron saint of beer?). Daily Happy hours, Margarita Mondays and more specials to be enjoyed. Since our inception, we've built relationships with the leaders in the microbrew industry and we offer some of the best beers made in North America. Every beer we pour is made with top notch ingredients and created by small companies with the highest standards of quality. We keep a few faves on tap and rotate the others with what's in season. Whether you just like a cold beer after work or you fancy yourself a beer connoisseur, give our taps a try and you'll never go back to the boring stuff again. Thirsty yet? We cheer for the Canucks (no matter how many times they break our heart); and we've got a full patio, a lounge, and a gastropub menu of classics and new faves.

    I can’t tell you much I appreciate that you have both. Kids menu and a plant based section on your menu! It’s so nice to find a modern, yet casual, restaurant that can accommodate the needs of my whole family. I also really appreciate that you have tofu for your plant based diners, because a lot of places that have vegan options only serve you vegetables, and vegans want/need/deserve protein, too!! So happy with our experience at tap & barrel!!

    Can't say enough good things about this dining experience. We were late for our reservation due to parking issues and it was very busy, but the hostess went out of her way to find us a low table near the window. We had limited time due to tickets to a play and our server was awesome. The food came quickly and was delicious... seafood caesar and my Tap & Barrel favourite, the Ranchero bowl. Highly recommended.
