Unlike private houses, public houses offer magical rivers of multitudinous beers, actual sports on real TVs, delectable edibles, and a place to actually talk to family and friends. Get the gang together with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 of modern pub fare and drinks at Pivo Public House, located downtown just five minutes from Rogers Arena. Pivo Public House serves up gourmet comfort foods in a sleek and contemporary dining environment. Start your flavor engines with buttermilk onion rings ($7) or yam fries ($7). Keep your classic side satisfied with fish n' chips ($14) or shake things up with a pesto prawn flatbread ($12). Take advantage of Pivo's knowledge of beer pairings (as a food purchase is required with this Groupon) and ask what compliments a Thirsty Beaver Amber Ale, Mill Street Coffee Porter, Hop Head IPA, Slipstream Cream Ale, or Big Rock Cider ($5.50 each).

• If you are looking for a place to get some food and drink before or after a game or for an after-work get together, then a visit to nearby Pivo is well worth it!...They have a stellar beer list including top notch local and international beers on tap as well as by the bottle, wine and cocktails round out the liquid refreshments. – Vancouver Foodster
• This Crosstown room has a modern brightness to it, amplified by large flat-screen TVs, streamlined furnishings, and a high ceiling. – Tara Lee, Georgia Straight
