Where the Sugar Refinery used to be, which forces me to hate it without ever going there. That said, it looks actually nice, not douchebag “nice” like every other bar/lounge on Granville.
The Sugar Refinery was the first place I went to when I moved to Vancouver. I’ve been eagerly awaiting something to come out of it, but this doesn’t interest me at all. :(

TRANSACTIONS HAD BEEN MADE SINCE THE NIGHT PRIOR. This man decided to woo me into thinking he was a good guy who would return my wallet and instead bought lottery tickets, pumped gas, and made a trip to Superstore. Nice guy.
