Vancouver, Canada -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/16/2013 -- It was about a year ago when The Checkers bar and Grill transformed into The Park. They closed the doors, changed furniture, painted, installed 24 beers on taps, worked on the floors, menus and bang! The gastropub was born and ready to rock at Davie st. Vancouver, BC.

What exactly is a Gastropub?

Gástr? pùb, noun: An establishment with a warm, inviting atmosphere which serves high-quality cuisine featuring craft beers on tap & a great wine list. For example, their certified chefs regularly hand pick fresh ingredients at the Granville Island Market and their beer and wine list emphasizes the best BC has to offer.

When you walk into The Park at English Bay, you’ll find a beer selection that challenges your ability to make a quick decision! If wine is more your style, you want to make your selection from the tantalizing list of award-winning BC VQA wines and sit back to enjoy.

Besides the amazing drinks the strongest attraction is the entertainment. 9 HD televisions and 2 HD Big Projectors showing ALL UFC PPV events, LIVE MUSIC Wednesday to Sunday, No Cover Ever and Drink Features Everyday. In just one year The Park registered thousands of online check ins and fans:

Whether it is the food, the drinks, the location or the entertainment that is very good job for the first year.
