Vancouver piano/jazz bars

[RooStew]

Does anyone have any suggestions for an evening of piano or jazz in a romantic setting? Looking for something on monday/tuesday night next week (am I asking too much for Vancouvers nightlife?).

I once went to a little joint down west broadway/blehiem way but would like to try something different. Also heard of piano at the Sutton??

Any advice would be much appreciated.

The lounge at Bacchus is nice. We went there for our anniversary last December and enjoyed the music and ambiance very much.

I'm not sure just what you're looking for, but there is only one place to regularly expose yourself to high calibre music. The Cellar. http://cellarjazz.com It's more a place to go to actually listen to the music. There is a cover because of the calibre of the acts they book. The food is above average for this kind of place. It's not meant for background music during conversation.

Gerard at the Sutton is a great bar, but its atmosphere is clubby rather then romantic-more Chartwelly if you know what I mean.

The Cellar is probably the place you already went to- it definitely would be the place to hear Jazz.

I agree that Bacchus is nice room for a romantic drink.

You could try O'Doul's on Robson. It can be a bit loud though.

After preparing a lovely dinner for my fiances birthday I planned to take her to the above recommended 'O'Douls' for a late night bevvy.

We went around 8.30ish on tuesday. It was a little less than what I was looking for but fun all the same. There weren't that many people in the joint, we were 2 of about ten people in the there. The fella on piano was good though.

I think next time I'll check out the cellar again, they are doing renos at the moment.

We were in Banff a couple of weeks ago and experienced an amazing jazz trio in the Banff Springs. Recommend it to anyone going or in the area.

Thanks for your suggestions guys.

Cloud Nine at the Empire Landmark has a piano lounge, and I do believe there's one at the Pan Pacific Waterfront as well..
