Cinq à Sept Happy Hours

Drop in to these elevated happy hours at our bar partners across the city during Vancouver Cocktail Week

Between the daytime seminars and evening events, head straight to one of our VCW bar partners to enjoy these elevated happy hours based on the French concept of the “cinq à sept”—5 to 7 pm, the playful hours between work and family life. (Hours vary though, so check with the venues for times.)

Expect VCW signature cocktails, snacks, entertainment, socializing and more.

Note that these events are not ticketed; however, some establishments may recommend reservations, so call ahead to secure a seat.

Vancouver Cocktail Week Cinq à Sept happy hours run nightly, March 1-8.

For Vancouver Cocktail Week, Bar Asra presents a curated Cinq à Sept experience featuring a selected menu of intricate, high-concept cocktails designed by Bar Manager Tom Harvey, paired with a bespoke small-bites menu by Executive Chef Kanwar Ahluwalia.

Guests can expect a refined after-work ritual: precise, technique-driven drinks, layered flavor architecture, and thoughtful culinary pairings that elevate the classic happy hour into a sensory tasting experience. The cocktail menu showcases Asra’s signature approach—bold ideas, advanced preparation, and globally inspired flavour stories—while the food offering highlights Chef Ahluwalia’s refined, modern interpretation of complementary textures and tastes.

Designed for both industry insiders and curious cocktail lovers, Bar Asra’s VCW programming invites guests to explore the craft behind world-class drinks, discover innovative pairings, and experience the bar’s distinct identity—where discipline, creativity, and hospitality converge.

Featuring two creative menus:
• A preview of three cocktails from our ambitious new menu which will fully launch the following week, paired with three small plates created by our chefs specially for the happy hour.
• A “Stripped Back” menu, showcasing spirits from Choya, Nikka, and Copperpenny.
