Celebrate St. Paddys Day at the Bard and Banker Tour of the Taps Bard and Banker Pub 5 Buck Blue Buck Thursdays

Welcome

Victoria’s newest landmark pub, the Bard & Banker is located on the corner of Fort St and Government St downtown Victoria, BC. With 30 different beers on tap, one of the most impressive selections of spirits under one roof and live music every night, the Bard & Banker defines the ultimate pub experience.

Offering 12000 sq.ft. of entertainment space and seating capacity of 320 people; two patios, one at street level and lounge style patio looking out over the ocean on the second floor, the Bard & Banker features a décor reminiscent of Old World British opulence.

Opened in 1862 as the Bank of British Columbia, the building remained a bank until 1988 under an array of different banking establishments’ control. Of all the bank employees to work at this location in the 126 years it was a bank, the most notable was the bard of the Yukon, Robert Service.

Wine Vault

Enomatic Wine Preservation System

We are proud to present our wine vault which features sixteen wines in addition to our regular wine list. At the heart of the wine vault is the technology which makes it all possible, our Enomatic wine preservation system. The first one of its kind on Vancouver Island, the Enomatic wine system is custom built in Italy and enables us to open and pour bottles of wine by the glass that other establishments would only be able to pour by the bottle.

The Enomatic wine preservation system uses state of the art gas preservation which prevents the wine from being altered by oxygen by covering the wine with a layer of Nitrogen, this protects the wines oreganoleptic (taste, aroma, body and color) for over 3 weeks. The technology provides a quality assurance that allows our guests the confidence that the wine they order will always be fresh.

The wines that we feature in our wine vault come from around the world; some you may have always wanted to try but not been afforded the opportunity, some you may have in your collection, but haven’t tried and some you may want to add to your collection.

Whether wine is your passion, a hobby or you are just getting started, I feel that our wine vault truly has something for everyone, from individual tasters of wine grouped in flights to a generous 7oz pour. I invite you to come an sample our collection and hope you enjoy the wine as much as I do!
