Love this establishment, super fun drinks, and incredible staff. Thrilled to see that they’ve reopened in a new location. Not to mention the fabulous events they host!
What I love most about this place (isn't the toilet but that is obviously a close second), it's the relaxed social environment they create that you can stand around, play some games, order at the bar which as a Brit gives me pub vibes. Great games, love the skee ball and our group were also a big fan of the table hockey and VR motorcycle races. Crossy road only gives you one life and I wouldn't recommend playing. Was a perfect venue for our friends birthday celebrations.
Absolute gem of a bar! So glad to have Glitch back and this time in East Van! Awesome spot to watch the hockey game or play NHL 09 or both!
Such a cool set up. East Van brewing downstairs along with amazing food and then you have Glitch upstairs with such a fun atmosphere. The staff are so friendly and accomodating. Good beer on tap and a bunch of funky cocktails. We had a bubble hockey tourney last visit. Looking forward to going back and playing Mario Kart on the N64. Definitely worth a visit to check out the new location. Great spot!
Glitch is honestly one of the best spots to hang out. The vibe is awesome — retro games, great drinks, and just a super fun atmosphere. The staff is always so friendly and on it, and the whole place just feels like a good time as soon as you walk in. And definitely don’t skip the restaurant downstairs, Barley & Rye — their sandwiches, paninis, soups, and salad are all incredible. Great for a birthday, a night out with friends, or you just want something different, it hasn’t disappointed. Such a good spot to chill, play, and have a few drinks. Highly recommend!
