New downtown tavern to open in iconic Vancouver building (PHOTOS)

We’ve been waiting to hear more about the concept that would be replacing the now-shuttered Elephant & Castle Pub and Restaurant, and we finally have some more answers.

Located in Vancouver’s iconic Marine Building’s ground floor space (385 Burrard Street), the Brass Fish Tavern is slated to open early January 2020.

Named for the “art deco creatures which adorn the building’s famous entrance” this will be the latest addition to the Donnelly Group’s ever-expanding restaurant and pub portfolio in Vancouver and beyond.

Brass Fish Tavern will be designed by Ricky Alvarez and offer a “respectful salute to the building’s history.”

Folks can expect a large selection of local beers, an “elevated cocktails program,” and food menus featuring pub classics and more.

We’ll keep you posted on an exact opening date for this spot, stay tuned.
