I can personally attest to this, as one thing that I’ve always admired about neighborhood bars like Hockey Haven, is their welcoming nature. It’s evident in the way regulars engage, comfortably expressing their authentic selves each day at the bar with no judgement or harassment from others.
The Hockey Haven has operated continuously for more than 70 years, up until the past few months of shelter in place. They are one of the many small businesses in the Richmond District that have been impacted by the pandemic.
Hockey Haven is a neighborhood sports bar established in 1949 by Rene Trudell, a French Canadian professional hockey player.
