Courtside

Absolutely coolest spot to watch an NBA game. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly. Great selection of beers, and bomb spicy pineapple margaritas. They made two Miami heat fans feel right at home. Such cool and historical basketball decor, and a great crowd. Highly recommend to all basketball fans. Show up early if you want to watch a finals game— at least 30 minutes before game start. Hope to be back one day next time I visit Vancouver!

The atmosphere is awesome, and the service was good. However, the food wasn't that great especially for price. Paid $28 for nachos with guacamole and it was not worth $28. My overall bill was like $70 for nachos with order of wings no veggies with wings and dessert, which was good. The pricing of food makes me not want to visit again. Maybe only for games, but season is pretty much done.

Vancouver has had a bit of a dry run in terms of comfortable, positive, and engaging community spaces especially sports related. Thankfully, that drought has come near an end with the lively addition of Courtside to the Mt. Pleasant neighbourhood. The past few months have been a whirlwind for me; discovering Courtside has been a real hoop dream come true. I watched a game here during the series between the Lakers and Golden State this year. The place filled up quickly, and by the time the game was going hard, the energy in the room was electric. It reminded me of the atmosphere you have at an actual sports game where you’re in the stands with hundreds of fans, displaying their teams colours with pride; cheering, yelling, crying together, as one beautiful community embracing the game of Basketball. Courtside absolutely captures that atmosphere and brings it to the city.

Awesome NBA themed sports-bar with a very cool vibe. Cocktails and happy hour was awesome, as was the food. Service was ideal will be returning.Food: 5/5

We had the BEST time. We had messaged in advance to make sure we could get a table, as we were coming from out of town, and everyone at the restaurant was absolutely lovely. It made my 12-year-old feel like a star - he declared it the “best night of his life”. Thank you to Blair and the rest of the staff!Food: 4/5

Came here to watch a WNBA game and was happy to sit amongst others that were here to watch basketball too! Popcorn is a must try and they serve a delicious Smashburger too.Food: 4/5

This place is really fun to watch the game at! Atmosphere is really cool, I’m not an huge sports fan but it was a vibe! The staff are all super friendly and caring. The food is also great, hot honey wings were delicious! Mark came up and said hi to each table and it was great to see how welcoming he is!Food: 5/5

Loved my time at Courtside. Two of my friends and I came here to watch the NBA finals today. Make sure to come early for big games as a line already formed when we arrived. The employee at the door was able to get us seated quickly which we really appreciated. The decor and atmosphere was phenomenal. I really liked the wings and cocktails here. Would definitely come back here to watch another game.

Very cool decor! Did not get a chance to try the food but the drinks all seemed a bit too sweet. Buzzer beater was insanely sweet. Not sure if they made a mistake but it was truly barely edible. The jalapeno margarita was just average. Mind you the cocktails are $15-17, if they dropped the price or made the cocktails truly exceptional I would be happy to be back. Closes too way too early! Should be at least 1am for weekends.

Best basketball bar in town! Love watching the game here. Really good service. Beer list is good.Food: 5/5
