The Den
The Den is a retro arcade bar and lounge tucked into the ground floor of the Barclay Hotel on Vancouver's Robson Street, featuring classic games like Pac-Man, pinball, Golden Tee, and Buck Hunter alongside a jukebox and nostalgic murals of the Beastie Boys, Run DMC, and Bill Murray. The bar has no kitchen but openly welcomes guests to bring their own food or order in from nearby restaurants. It bills itself as a deliberately casual, basement-den atmosphere — cheap drinks, killer tunes, and a chill vibe.
