This is our go to place if we need any cocktail supply in Vancouver. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. He used to be a bartender and can give you recommendations to places based on what you like. They offer a professional selection of bitters, garnishes, etc. They also had a great selection of books too if you are into reading more about cocktails.

What an incredible place for the home bartender! I was like a kid in a candy store. They have such an incredible selection of bitters (lots of them can be sampled to help with your selection!), really great assortment of glassware and tiki glasses. I'll definitely come in again!

By far the best bartending store I have been to. Great selection of tools in a variety of price ranges. The clerk working Saturdays is very knowledgeable and will provide good honest advice if asked. If you want to be left alone and browse you won’t be bothered unless you want help. Good selection of speciality ingredients such as gum Arabic and other hard to find things.This store is located in a bit of sketchy part of town, but the store inside feels safe and I have never had an issue coming or going to the store, but have seen a lot of drug use on this block.

Came here looking for supplies for tiki drinks and was not disappointed. They have an extensive supply of bitters, syrups, spices and bar equipment. If you’re looking to spice up your home bar, this is the only place to go.

Can I give it 6 ⭐️s ??Modern Bartender is Vancouver’s ‘must visit’ shop for craft cocktail and tiki supplies. An amazing wall of every bitters imaginable, lots of syrups, glassware, shakers, tools and a great selection of tiki mugs. They’ve also got lots of dried herbs and ingredients for custom infusions, and a really good selection of cocktail books. Whether you’re an industry pro or a starting home bartender, this is the place.

Great selection of everything "bar" related. Bought way to much and got some excellent ideas from the store person. We'll be back.

I knew it would be dangerous to open the front door with wallet in pocket. I had a plan, and Michael excellently guided me through the important steps of selecting core tools for my home bar. Amazing store. This was my first of many visits for sure. A gem for Vancouver’s bartending community.

The only place in town where you’re going to be able to purchase these amazing bartending products. Service was friendly, but not super helpful for the questions I had; made more general comments rather than answering my questions. Still the only place I’ve found with these products other than buying online.

Novice or professional, this place has what you need. I dropped in after grabbing a great lunch next door at Kouign Café. We met Rhett, the super-knowledgable shopkeeper and former bartender. After I asked a question about pairing bitters, we got a truly useful tutorial on sources, flavors, and options. Yes, we did end up buyng several selections we would not have ventured to try otherwise. (Pro tip: they carry difficult to find juniper berries.)

Great selection of bartending tools, books, and everything you need to make a great cocktail (except the booze). Every time I've been there the staff has always been friendly and helpful.

We received valuable advices from the staff in preparation for our tiki cocktail night and were able to find all the syrups and supplies we needed.
