Whether you’re grabbing some drinks for the road or planning a holiday party, finding to-go cocktails or brews can be a tricky process, depending on where in the city you are. So for the times you’re looking for a spontaneous sip on the go, here are a handful of Vancouver spots to check out.

Please! Tasting House

If you love small-batch concoctions and unique flavours, you’ll definitely want to head over to Please! Beverage Co’s new cocktail tasting house in Mount Pleasant – the first of its kind in the city.

Beverage Co promises guests that they’ll never drink the same thing twice, unless they really want to. Each bottle is a unique “labour of love,” using fresh-squeezed mixers and locally-grown herbs and botanicals.
