Spirits

Cocktails

My oh my, Raincity Distillery located in Squamish is a must visit. I was intrigued when I heard about it, and was delightfully pleased when I was there. An array of incredibly flavored gins, vodka and rye, I ordered a distilled flight of 6 tastes. They offer what can be described in the menu as delicious sounding asian fusion cocktails. My flight was good and fellow patrons said their cocktails were great. Recommended.

I’m not usually a cocktail fan cause everything tastes like rocket fuel but there are some interesting concoctions at Raincity.\n\nWasabi Margarita- best margarita I’ve ever had\n\nIron Buddha gin tonic - solid\n\nDumplings were pretty decent as well. I would say the mushroom was my fav then the XLB.\n\nGreat servers, awesome vibe. Will be back.",

Unassuming and casual vibes, this hole in the wall has amazing cocktails, astonishingly good dumplings and friendly, welcoming bar keeps. Enjoyed it so much my first night in town I went back again the next night with ZERO hesitation. Will make a point of returning anytime I'm near the area again, definitely worth checking out",
