Back in the day, we used to settle for a drink or two during night outs. Most of the time, we would even have a few drinks at home before heading out to the bar.
Now that bottle services in Vancouver are in, we’re finally enjoying our well-deserved VIP experience. We get a reserved table and a designated server who can get our favorite alcoholic drinks ready for us all night long.
So consider upgrading your night out, and enjoy that VIP treatment you deserve. We’ve compiled a list of the best bottle services we’ve tried around the city, so continue reading and bookmark this page to refer back to our list anytime.
In Vancouver, a bottle service typically costs a minimum of $500 for a bottle of service. Just take note that this price typically includes a bottle of liquor, mixers, and a table for your group.

Gallery Vancouver is renowned for offering exclusivity to all its guests, including non-VIP guests. And that only proves to us that getting this club’s bottle service will really elevate your night out here in the city.
They carry some of the crowd-favorite spirits such as Grey Goose vodka and Moët & Chandon champagne, which we love. It’s also great that they are well-stocked, so you won’t run out of your favorites while partying here at the Gallery.
Here, you have two options to avail their bottle service. One option is to book a VIP table, and the other is to book a VIP lounge.
For those of you who prefer to be near where the party happens, opt for the tables near the Gallery’s main level. However, if you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere, consider booking the tables on the upper level instead.
Don’t worry, no matter which area you choose, there’s a designated server that will keep those bottles coming.
Meanwhile, one of the perks of booking a VIP room is getting a private dance moment with your chosen dancer. We were lucky enough to book Leila, and we appreciated how she made a special connection with each of us.
However, expect premium rates. Additionally, consider booking early, as events can become crowded.
Pros
Offers exclusivity even for non-VIP guests
Premium spirits and mixers
Well-stocked bar
Attentive designated services
Cons
The venue tends to get crowded
Premium rates
Well-maintained and clean building
“Gallery Vancouver is the place to be! The environment is fun and welcoming. The staff was friendly and service at the bar was quick. The performers were extremely talented and attentive with enough entertainment options to keep night interesting. The building is well maintained, clean, and stylish. I would recommend this club to anyone looking to have a good time!”
“Incredible sound & lighting. Always room at one of the bars to grab a drink so no waiting a long time. Bottle service is nice and spacious. They always bring the best DJs from all over and have a very friendly staff. Looking forward to going back.”

For those of you who love watching exotic dances or burlesque performances with a bottle service on the side, then you should head to The Penthouse Nightclub. This club has been in operation since 1947, making it one of the oldest nightclubs in the city.
We love that we can easily reserve a table or a VIP section through their website. You can also access their full calendar of events, so you can choose the most convenient date for you.
What’s great about this nightclub is that you won’t have to wait in line if you book a VIP area. Here, you can expect a red carpet entry while the staff leads you to your own private seating area.
You can also expect them to assign a personal waitress who will make sure your glasses are always filled with your favorite spirits throughout the night.
Aside from the exotic dancers you can watch on the stage, you can also arrange private dances in your area. Just make sure to bring a full wallet, as the dancers here can really put on a show.
However, we noticed that the drink menu is more limited compared to those of other clubs. Expect them to carry mostly whiskeys and rums here, with a limited selection of cocktails and specialty drinks.
Pros
Easy online booking process
Ideal for exotic dances and burlesque performances
Exclusive VIP rooms
Personal waitress
Cons
Limited drink options
Layout can be quite confusing
Hires the hottest dancers in the city
“Some of the hottest dancers in Vancouver.. for a more intimate experience i would recommend the Paramount on Columbia”
“Had an absolutely phenomenal time at the Penthouse. Very friendly staff and an overall energetic environment that is great for a night out. The Penthouse also had some excellent renovations done to the place that brings its strong history into the current era of nightclubs. Absolutely sensational.”

Another top nightclub in Vancouver that offers a bottle service is Twelve West. This club looks like a mansion, so as soon as we walked in, we immediately felt the exclusivity and its luxurious vibe.
To avail the bottle service, you can reserve a VIP table or choose one of the three VIP sections in this club. All these areas will guarantee you a great view of the dance floor and the DJ booth.
As soon as you settle into the room, the attentive servers will bring you your favorite spirits, ensuring your glasses are topped up throughout the night.
They mostly play the top 40 hits and hip-hop songs, so this club is a favorite among the younger crowd. But don’t worry, they still include a few R&B throwbacks, so millennials can also hear their favorite tracks.
You’ll also love that their sound system here features North America’s first EVO-6E setup, which delivers a crisp sound and deeper bass.
And based on experience, Saturdays tend to attract the most energetic crowd. So plan your visit accordingly.
Still, we’re also quite impressed with their lost and found service. In fact, I lost my earphones twice, and they were able to return them each time.
Pros
Luxurious, mansion-like vibe
Choice of VIP tables
ttentive services
Music mix of top 40 hits
First EVO-6E setup in North America
Reliable lost and found service
Cons
Saturdays can get very packed
Lovely servers
“We had table service by Giannina, and Makaela! Both lovely ladies and stunning to look at! Then we had the pleasure of meeting Eskiam and he ensured that we were having a great time. Music was okay..great place to people watch and dance. Not sure why people think it’s pricey…sure table service is…but drinks weren’t too bad…thank you we will see you again!”
“Seven words to describe this nightclub, The…Best… night… club.. in…the…city!! WOW is an understatement. The doormen and staff are so friendly and welcoming. I spoke to them while waiting in line about acceptable ID as I didn’t have a Canadian ID, as I am from Ghana and only had my passport. The staff took the time to scan my document and let me pass. The whole experience was very welcoming I Highly Recommend it if you are new to the city and looking for a safe & existing place to party!!!”

If you’re looking for a modern nightclub that offers bottle services in different packages, then Aura Nightclub is for you.
Upon walking in, you’ll notice the big light squares surrounding the club. Even the DJ’s booth is surrounded by neon lights, which definitely sets a lively energy in the club.
Our favorite part about this nightclub is that these lights are synced with the DJ’s beats, so expect the lights to groove with you too.
And speaking of DJs, most of them normally switch between genres, ensuring all generations can relate throughout the night.
You’ll also love that the place has enough space, so you won’t feel trapped even if you decide to go in the middle of the dance floor.
Meanwhile, you’ll appreciate the extensive drink menu available here. They even offer creative mixed cocktails such as the Twisted Peach. It’s perfect for those who love limoncellos, a shot of vodka, and a cup of black tea.
And for whiskey lovers, we recommend the Divine Gamay Sour. It combines your whiskey with lemon juice and simple syrup to add a touch of sweetness.
There are also bubbly cocktails, craft beers, and wines available, allowing you to truly maximize your experience with bottle service.
However, there’s a drawback: the premium rate.
Pros
Spacious dance floor
Lights synced to the beats
Creative mixed cocktails are available
Wide range of alcoholic drink options
Cons
Premium rate
Spacious enough to accommodate a large crowd
“I had a great night here but I had to much fun on Saturday night March,4th I lost my favourite black hoodie at one of the vip tables. It’s black and says diamond in red writing. If the owner sees this and somehow has the hoodie in lost n found I’d love to come back to pick it up. I’d definitely recommend this nightclub to anyone it’s well worth it super big inside and the djs we’re playing great hits all night and we had an amazing bartender she was awesome. Other then loosing my hoodie this is a great place to come party in Downtown Vancouver”
“Went to Aura a couple of weeks back…..and oh my God was it awesome. Music was great although a little packed, it was clean, servers were perfect. Bottle service was on point and fun. If your visiting or just wanting a place of fun, drinks and awesome atmosphere go here. I’d also like to give a huge shout out to Megan Hopkins. She was one of the bartenders there; super friendly awesome personality and could make the drinks fast and perfect. She makes your feel like a celeb when you go up to the bar.”
One Saturday night, we decided to avail a bottle of service in one of the most famous strip clubs in Vancouver—The Granville Strip. And since this strip club has the city’s first and only exotic shower room, we decided to book it that night.
Don’t worry, the room is spacious enough for you to party and move around without getting wet. However, this room is limited to only six people, so if you’re a larger group, then a different the adjacent or adjoining VIP booths instead.
All VIP options include a complimentary bottle service. And while their drink menu is quite limited, all your classic whiskey and vodka favorites are available—just don’t expect them to serve you those fancy cocktails you see from the other bars.
In terms of music, they play a good mix of popular club hits and EDM, which is pretty much appealing to every generation.
But for those of you who love a little throwback to the 80s and 90s, we recommend going here every Sunday. You can expect the DJ to play your favorite tunes during that era.
This bar is also a great option if you’re planning for bachelor or bachelorette party. It’s a part of their VIP package, so you also don’t need to line up if you’re availing of this.
Pros
Offers the city’s first exotic shower room
Complimentary bottle service
Classic whiskey and vodka options
Music includes popular club hits
Great options for bachelor/bachelorette
Cons
Drink menu is limited
Friendly staff
“You need to come here.. SERIOUSLY!! The friendliest staff, amd the positivity and vibes you get from here are special. From the second iI walked in, I knew everyone wanted to be here, and they wanted me here. I felt that. I’ve been in the industry for a long time, people get very jaded. It’s all about money, apathy and laziness are rampant. I never felt that one time here . I’m going back tomorrow and anytime I come back to Vancouver There’s too many names too many stars, but Max , Misty , Kennedy , the guy manning the door , both servers were so incredible I’m ashamed I can remember their names. I don’t leave reviews , I’m that impressed that I’d just had to let everyone know . Don’t miss out.”
“We had a beyond amazing time at the Granville Strip for my friends bachelorette! The dancers were so talented! Steve and the rest of the staff was beyond amazing! Would come back here next time we are in town!”
