Pumpjack Pub: A casual pub, Pumpjack is best known for its weekday leather and bear clientele.Score on Davie: Vancouver's only gay sports bar, Score caters to all those who love to watch the Canucks and other Vancouver teams play on the big screens while noshing on greasy pub fare.At night, many of them slide their high-tops to the side to make room for a dance floor (naturally). Davie Street has some of the best watering holes for summertime day drinking and people watching. There's nothing like drinking an ice-cold beer on the patio of some chilled-out bar on a hot afternoon in Vancouver (rare as they may be). There's certainly no shortage of day-drinking establishments, cocktail lounges, and rowdy clubs boasting gay vibes. Nightlife is, of course, a key player in Vancouver's rich and prolific pride. It even has its very own pride festival, dubbed East Side Pride and recognized by the official Vancouver Pride Society, that's separate from the main Vancouver Pride Parade and Festival held at Sunset Beach. This hip, bohemian hamlet is popular with the lesbian crowd, specifically, and is not nearly as touristy as Davie Village.

They flock to the rainbow-painted crosswalks that have become fixtures and photo opps on Davie Street. This metropolis on the West Coast of Canada is a haven for queers of all kind. Vancouver would not be the same laidback, anything-goes city without its beloved LGBTQ+ population.
