UnderBar

Nestled beneath the sidewalks of downtown Vancouver, Washington, UnderBar has emerged as the city's most captivating hidden gem since its establishment in 2018. What began as a serendipitous discovery—a vacant basement with a storied past stumbled upon during a storage search in summer 2017—transformed through extensive remodeling into Vancouver's premier underground cocktail destination. This speakeasy-themed lounge transports patrons to the Roaring'20s with its Prohibition-inspired atmosphere and meticulously crafted cocktails made from fresh, quality ingredients. As a proudly LGBTQ-friendly and gay-owned establishment, UnderBar has cultivated a reputation for inclusivity where everyone can genuinely pull up a chair and feel welcome. The venue pulses with energy seven nights weekly. Comedy shows draw packed crowds eager for local standup talent. Trivia nights challenge sharp minds. Open mic evenings showcase emerging performers. Karaoke transforms ordinary Tuesdays into memorable experiences. First Fridays spotlight local artists, while the beloved campy drag brunch has become legendary—featuring talented performers and surprisingly generous portions like jumbo biscuits smothered in country sausage gravy.
