The new owners have really cleaned up Shanihans. They have GREAT bar food and a good mix of clientelle!

This pub is nice for the location... kind of hard to find in the residential area. The food sucks but they have great drinks. Note: the clocks are 15 min fast so they can do last call early.

I stopped going to Shanahans a couple years ago when the owners let it go to hell. I went in recently because I heard they had new owners and the place was picking up again, and I've got to admit that these guys are doing a great job. The place was cleaner than I've ever seen it and the staff were great, not to mention the drinks were stiff and the food was great. After talking to the bartender (very hot by the way), she told me that the new owners were bartenders as well. Finally a bar that's owned by someone who's been there done that and it really shows. Do yourself a faver and go check out Shanahans next time your downtown Vancouver.
