Rich walnut, brass light, and a room built for good company — steps from Ambleside Beach. The Squarerigger has been reborn as West Vancouver's most stylish sports bar, without losing an ounce of its soul.

Welcome
The heart of Ambleside
The Squarerigger has been a fixture in West Vancouver for years — a place where neighbours become regulars and strangers become friends. A full renovation brought in walnut finishes, brass fixtures and a proper sports setup, and left the warmth exactly where it was.
“West Van's best kept secret — though with a crowd like ours, the secret's well and truly out.”
We're on Marine Drive across from Ambleside Beach: the right stop before a walk on the seawall, and the right stop after one.

What guests are saying
As a local guide it's been my lifelong dream to become a local at an old school pub walking distance from my home. At the Squarerigger I realized that dream.
This is your friendly neighborhood pub if you're looking for one. The beer selection is satisfying and the food comes from a nice little restaurant upstairs called Mani's. Ample space for large groups and a friendly bartender.
I'm now in Europe but I'm already looking forward to the next visit at the Square pub in October.
