The heart of Vancouver's Davie Village! A legendary gay bar with a famous heated patio, craft beers, and a welcoming LGBTQ+ atmosphere.
The Fountainhead Pub is a legendary cornerstone of the Vancouver queer scene. Located in the heart of Davie Village, this welcoming gay bar has been the gateway to the West End since 2000. For travelers using a gay map to navigate the city's best spots, 'The Head' is an essential stop to experience the authentic spirit of LGBTQ+ life in British Columbia.

It is widely considered the best spot in the city for gay men and visitors to grab a seat, enjoy one of the 16 craft beers on tap, and engage in premier people-watching along Davie Street. Inside, the vibe is cozy yet buzzing, featuring pool tables and multiple screens showing sports and the latest music videos. The kitchen serves up top-tier pub comfort food that goes far beyond standard fare. From the signature 'Regular J Burger' and 'Scotty’s Pound of Wings' to their famous weekend brunch, the menu is a major draw for the community. Whether you’re looking for a casual afternoon pint or a lively night out, The Fountainhead Pub provides a safe, inclusive, and vibrant space that defines the Vancouver queer experience. It’s a must-visit landmark for any queer travel guide itinerary!
