About The Fountainhead Pub

One of the original Davie Village pubs, open since 2000 at the corner of Davie and Burrard — locals just call it 'The Head.' Sixteen draft lines, pool inside, and one of the largest street-side patios on Davie Street, which is the real reason to come: it's the best people-watching seat in the West End, and it fills up the moment the sun's out. This is a daytime-through-evening neighborhood pub, not a late-night club. The kitchen turns out pub food and weekend brunch, and the room runs friendly and unpretentious — the kind of place you sit with a pint and watch the whole Village walk by. If you're starting a night in Davie, it's the natural first stop; if you just want a low-key afternoon in the gayborhood, it's the one to plant yourself at.
