HALINÁ Modern Filipino Kitchen + Bar: Calamansi Cocktails and Filipino Plates in East Vancouver
Northwest of New Westminster, in Vancouver’s Hastings-Sunrise neighbourhood, Halina pairs a modern Filipino menu with a cocktail list built on calamansi, ube, pandan and lemongrass. It suits an after-work drink as easily as a full dinner.
A Lively Room on East Hastings
The dining room in Hastings-Sunrise has a long bar, warm wood and pendant lighting, and Halina describes the vibe as lively and welcoming, with upbeat music and food that celebrates both tradition and style.
It is the grown-up version of Bigboy’s Chigs To-Go, the takeout and catering business four friends started before opening the restaurant.
Good With a Drink
The Cocktail List
Highlights include the Kalabaw, a Filipino twist on the Moscow Mule, the Calamansi Mojito, the Ube Margarita with house-made ube syrup and the Spiced Kape Martini. The slushy cocktails, like the Halini and the Calamansi Margarita, are made for warm evenings.
Tambayan Hour
Halina’s happy hour runs every day from 8 p.m. to close and from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, with a shorter food list that includes Slamdunk wings and a liempo platter.
Not Drinking?
The zero-alcohol list is a real list, with house-made pandan and ube syrups in drinks like the Pandan Fizz and the Tita ‘Be-by, plus calamansi juice and slushies.
