1. Rogue Kitchen & Wetbar
Vancouver, BC V6B 1G1
Canada
(604) 678-8000
Categories:
Canadian (Traditional),
Gastropubs
Neighbourhood: Downtown
Walking in the door, I really didn't think I was going to like this place. It had a particularly "bro" atmosphere combined with some uber-fancy light fixtures. But I have been looking for places that have beer other than Sleeman and A. Keith and this…More »
2. East is East
Vancouver, BC V5V 3R2
Canada
(604) 879-2020
Category:
Middle Eastern
Neighbourhood: Riley Park
I decided to hit up this place thinking it would be a quick eats kind of place and while I'm sure I could have gotten something to-go quickly, it didn't turn out to be a quick lunch for me...
And that's a good thing!
Maybe because it was a quiet…More »
3. Pomp & Proper
Vancouver, BC V5T 3G2
Canada
(604) 876-6670
Category:
Hair Salons
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
I love Susan. I went in there with a too dark picture and a vague idea of what I wanted and she spent not one, but two hours taking my hair from long-boring-dreckitude to cute-bouncy-short-fabulousness . Two hours she spent making me perfect! And she…More »
4. Budgies Burritos
Vancouver, BC V5T 3H9
Canada
(604) 874-5408
Categories:
Vegetarian,
Mexican
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
I really wanted to like this place. I love burritos and veggie ones have always been my favorite in the past. BUT... my burrito was barely lukewarm and the salsa tasted like lemon juice and nothing else. I could have dealt with boring salsa if the…More »
5. Hawkers Delight Deli
Vancouver, BC V5V 3P6
Canada
(604) 709-8188
Categories:
Malaysian,
Singaporean
Neighbourhood: Riley Park
Good, basic place to get a quick, cheap bite to eat. I had the Mee Goreng which is fried noodles with tofu, green onion and potato. I didn't get it spicy and I think they ended up making it a bit bland for me. But it was only $5 so I don't expect too…More »
6. The Junction Public House
I've only really gone dancing at one place in Vancouver so far but I've always had a great time at Junction. The place is busy but not so crowded that you can't find a spot. The music is usually super cheesy top-40 dance mix music but it's easy to…More »
7. Kafka's Coffee and Tea
Vancouver, BC V5T 3E5
Canada
(604) 569-2967
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
I love the atmosphere in this place... it's large but not too large with plenty of tables and really excellent coffee. My only complaints are not enough plugs for laptops and not enough food for my munchies.
But I don't care cause the place is comfy…More »
8. The Delly
Vancouver, BC V6T 2A5
Canada
(604) 228-8121
Categories:
Indian,
Pakistani,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: UBC
UBC is seriously lacking in the good/cheap eats department. This place is my mainstay on campus. A freshly made-to-order sandwich is $5-$6 which is really the best you can do on campus. They also offer several curries and assorted wraps and samosas…More »
9. Kreation Artisan Bakery
Vancouver, BC V5Z 2W6
Canada
(604) 871-9119
Category:
Bakeries
Neighbourhoods: South Cambie, Riley Park
I've been on the lookout for good cookies and for some reason they seem to be hard to find in this town. I tried the two chocolate varieties here and the "divine" was a richer, dense chocolate cookie, soft and almost alcoholic tasting. It was very…More »
10. Pronto Caffe
Vancouver, BC V5Z 2W7
Canada
(604) 722-9331
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: South Cambie, Riley Park
I had a sandwich craving the other day so I decided to give Pronto a try. I had the Porchetta sandwich which was just bread and chopped pork with crispy bits (crackling?). The bread was good and the pork was delicious but the lack of variety in the…More »
11. Yaletown Brewing Company
Vancouver, BC V6B 2T9
Canada
(604) 681-2739
Categories:
Nightlife,
Breweries,
Canadian (Traditional)
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
I'm from Seattle and while I've been in Vancouver I've had a very hard time finding beer that I like, particularly IPAs. Not sure what you all have against hops up here.... the IPA at Yaletown is one of the better IPAs I've had here and I think it…More »
12. Long's Noodle House
This place is close to my apartment and the price is right. I've had the Shanghai Thick Noodles and they were pretty tasty. Will definitely be going back to try other stuff. Cash only so come prepared!
