Jake's Bar & Grill

I'm surprised this place doesn't have a higher rating. I've only eaten there a few times, but they have the best tuna melt I've ever had. My fiancé, who eats burgers for almost every meal, says they have the best burger he has had in Vancouver (we moved here a year ago). My son likes the French dip And the steak tips. Prices are about the same as everywhere else, which is high compared to where I used to live but not high for Vancouver. Service was good when we ate at the restaurant. I do wish they had a Website, and the place is a little shabby. Also, the sign about service dogs needs editing.

Say what you will, but I love this place. And the original location, I'm glad they've been able to keep both. I've been coming here since I was a kid, liked it when it was the previous hotel, but who's counting. Inside is old Portland, wood, classic bar, big chairs and drinks and food. This is not your go-to for innovation, but just a classic, always great institution. Brunch can't be countered. 3$ mimosas! Hello! And the food is always up to expectations. I've had so many great times here from teens, to party 20s and well, where I'm at now. lol. I've even had staff recognize me from years past and say hello, when hadn't been in some time. Last week, I went in for an after lunch drink with a friend, and had a great time. Same great service as always. There's a lot of amazing places in downtown, but, there's only one, okay, two--Jake's. It never fails!

I came here for the first time Wednesday night and ate the best chicken & bacon sandwich I've ever had in my life. Totally blown away and wasn't expecting that from what I'd describe as a slightly divey sports bar. Drinks were fine and the bartender gave us table service even though we ordered at the bar so that was really sweet of her. It was way busier than I would have anticipated for a Wednesday night but it didn't have any impact on my experience.Food and drinks were prompt af.I noticed they stay open until 10pm and have pull tabs & a pool table and a lot of tvs. Interesting spot.I'd like to come back and try their prime rib night!

No web page, doesn't seem to have consistent hours! Is it really open? It has gone down hill since they bought out the original owners.

I've been before, some time ago, and a real treat to rerun. Crowded Tuesday dinner, we walked around in and we're able to grab a table in the bar area next to the window. Same menu, same everything, just no reservations needed for this area. Classic looking on the inside with a solid team of servers. French Onion soup in the crock is a tribute to the classic deep flavor one would expect! Flat iron steak with potatoes and green beans....fantastic and classic.

Food is good overcooked quite a bit though services okay food's good places clean etc

What a surprise. Friends turned us onto this place. Consistently great food. Not a huge tap selection, but never been unable to find something good. This is what I would call home cooking. Atmosphere is a little loud, but not that you can't carry on a conversation.

Angela is amazing! She is so welcoming and personable, she always remembers my drink and my name! She brings a fun atmosphere and she is the reason I keep coming back. I have never had a bad experience here, feels like Cheers!

Went for lunch had the Fish wrap with fries, my daughter had the chicken strips with tots both were very good. The service was amazing first time here definitely worth a trip

First time here and it was okay. Very busy (seemed popular with locals) so some understandable delays in service but friendly staff. Rueben sandwich was just okay, seemed skimpy on the meet but flavorful. Typical darkness of bar and grill restaurants.
