How can they, or any bar for that matter be at capacity at 9pm? With ESL school enrollment down, who’s going there?

I can’t stand the place personally. Owners are dinks, bouncers are knobs and the band is old and the music is the exact same every week. Did I mention how fucking loud the music is?

Why would they hold a fake line-up? It doesn’t make the bar any money when the patrons are on the street – there’s a lineup because the bar is at capacity. And apparently you haven’t been to any of the Granville bars, or Modern for that matter (just down the street, where stabbings occur once a month, like clockwork). There are fights in every bar. Get a life and grow up buddy.

Keith isn’t the brightest bulb in the box. The OP posted that they have been there 20 times because as he/she says,”I can’t lie, it excites me”

Maybe they like the “fight-club” atmosphere?

i don’t mind the Blarney personally but it just ain’t my thing. I’d rather go to a pub with people 25+ not 17+.

That’s funny, I clean the beer lines at the Blarney Stone every two weeks. In fact, the company I work for put in a whole new beer system in there two years ago. I also go there quite bit and have never seen a fight. If there are always fights, why have you been there 20 times? Are you sure you are talking about the same Blarney Stone? What is a fake line-up anyway? Do you think they pay people to stand in line? Or they would rather have people outside than inside drinking? hmmmm. Everyone on this feed sounds a little suspicious!?!?!?!?!? Gotta a grudge? Get fired or something?

Blarney Stone sucks. Using a fake line-up to get people in, watered down drinks and draught beer that tastes like ass(Do they ever clean the lines there??).

There are way better options for bars in Gastown. Blarney Stone is for broke-ass college kids and foreign exchange students.

I would never go to the Blarney Stone in Vancouver again after what I saw a few months ago. I watched the bartenders overserve this one girl until she was puking in the bathroom. Then I watched as one of the bouncers felt her up as he draged her outside and dropped her near the curb. It was disgusting.

I totally don’t feel safe there. It made me realize how much I miss kits pub.
