1. The Odyssey - CLOSED
Vancouver, BC V6Z 1R3
(604) 689-5256
Categories:
Dance Clubs,
Bars
Neighbourhood: Downtown
All good things must come to an end. Sad but true. I stopped in to the O on Tuesday night for the last Ryan Steele show, and to catch the Fre-QUEEN-cy drag show. If you have ever been a fan of Saturday Night Live, or Kids in the Hall, I hope you had…More »
2. Peaceful Restaurant Downtown
Vancouver, BC V6B 3N3
(604) 488-0399
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Granville Entertainment District
I was in eggplant heaven! After reading Crystal H's review of the spicy eggplant dish, I knew it was a must try for me. I dragged the BF down there, and since he is a noodle-head I didn't think it would be difficult. The place is brand spanking new,…More »
3. The Elbow Room Café
Vancouver, BC V6B 2G4
(604) 685-3628
Categories:
Diners,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Downtown
FINALLY after a year of searching in the West End for the right breakfast spot, we found it. The Elbow Room, which it surprisingly had plenty of on Saturday morning, that is if your morning and breakfast start at 2pm like mine, is known for their…More »
4. La Belle Patate
Vancouver, BC V6E 1N4
(604) 569-1215
Categories:
Fast Food,
Poutineries
Neighbourhood: West End
I was being dragged around after work by the BF, when I started to get the hungry, and I knew it was gonna be bad. Before this nasty feeling turned into hanger (angry hunger) I had to get something in my belly. Then I spotted La Belle Patate.
It was…More »
5. Donair King Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M3
(604) 685-8723
Categories:
Mediterranean,
Middle Eastern,
Donairs
Neighbourhood: West End
As soon as you get close to this place, the smell hits you like a punch in the face, and then you realize how hungry you are, (even if you're not.) You go in to order and the guy behind the counter starts chatting you up like you're old friends and…More »
6. Kadoya Japanese Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M5
(604) 608-1115
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: West End
A friend suggested this place to me for dinner, so we staggered over for a dinner date. The tables are a little too close for comfort, unless you end up meeting three gay guys that decide they love you and want to buy you a round of drinks. How could…More »
7. Vancouver Pride Parade
Hello ripped sailors in little white booty shorts! I know you're all gay, but I am allowed to look at the menu since I'm not ordering anything right? The parade is full of beautiful people in all shapes and sizes, showing their unconditional love for…More »
8. The Pumpjack Pub
Have I mentioned that I love gay men? I can't remember if I did or not? I love everything from their limp wrists to their sweet lisps. Ok I'm stereotyping, but I'm allowed, I'm a fruit fly!
If you've ever walked down Davie street on a Sunday, you've…More »
9. Bow Wow Haus
Vancouver, BC V6E 1N6
(604) 682-1899
Categories:
Pet Stores,
Pet Training,
Pet Groomers
Neighbourhood: West End
Now that I'm a West End girl, I needed to find a pet store for my West End doggy. I originally came here to get Bruno a new bed, since somehow his got lost in the move? It obviously grew legs and walked away, or the ghost took it, he seems to take…More »
10. Calli Restaurante Mexicano
After checking the rating for this place on Yelp, I suggested it to the ladies, since we were feeling Mexican on Sunday. The place was nothing spectacular, definitely a mom and pop shop, with a special bag of hanging water under the doorway entrance…More »
11. Phresh Spa & Wellness Club
Thanks Groupon I needed that! For Valentine's Day I decided to treat my meterosexual man to a rub-down with me. It was $159 for a couple's sauna, massage, pedicure, and facial totalling 2 hours of relaxation. Hells yea! The BF was like "wtf facial?"…More »
12. Baguette Time
Vancouver, BC V6E 1N4
(604) 689-7782
Categories:
Bakeries,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: West End
This review isn't going to be super helpful, since I got to stand outside and wait for the BF while he got a baguette for himself and I got an ice cream. Somebody had to hold onto the dog while the other ordered right? So there I was, melting in the…More »
13. House of Empanadas
Do not be fooled by this little hidden location, these empanadas are worth checking out! OMG! I had walked by this place pretty much twice a day to and fro work, and after reading Marc D's review I had to stop in and check out the goods. And they…More »
14. Numbers Cabaret
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M3
(604) 685-4077
Categories:
Dance Clubs,
Gay Bars
Neighbourhood: West End
I'm not sure why, but I always thought Numbers was a bear bar? I guess since the Odyssey was a twink bar, I just assumed that the bears needed a bar too, not that they don't already have Pumpjack, but where do bears go to dance? Do bears dance? I…More »
15. Takis Taverna
I was pretty excited about moving to the West End, because now I am in the haven of yummy restaurants that are at my disposal! The BF and I decided to make one of our first dinner dates at Takis Taverna for some Greek goodness. All you people waiting…More »
16. Falafel King Restaurant
With a name like Falafel King, I would expect that this place would have the best falafels in the city. Although they were pretty f'in good, I don't think they were the best, but a very close second indeed, and honestly if Donair King wasn't so damn…More »
17. Thai Basil
Yes please! This is what I have been looking for in my hood. A Thai place that serves my delicious swimming rama, except in this case it was broccoli and not spinach, but really its just a vehicle for the yummy spicy peanut sauce! You can get the…More »
18. La Brasserie
This would have been a five star review if there were more veggie options for us, since the only items available for our consumption were the daily specials not even listed on the menu. I had the veggie quiche, which was made with goat cheese, kale,…More »
19. Café Luxy
Vancouver, BC V6E 1N4
(604) 669-5899
Categories:
Italian,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: West End
One of my favourite pasta places in Vancouver. We like to hit this spot for dinner because you always get so much food that you can take a doggie bag home and have the rest for lunch the next day. Dinner comes with a cesar salad and garlic bread, and…More »
20. The Oasis Pub
What happens at the Oasis, stays at the Oasis. Welcome to Fag Fridays, the place where all the twinks frolicked to when the Odyssey shut its doors. There's no cover, a $3 charge for the coat check, and doubles are only like $8.50. Score! There is…More »

21. Priape
Hellooooooo boys! As a former fag hag, I love going into Priape! Most of the boys working there are pretty easy on the eyes, and friendly. They have a great selection of sexy booty shorts and underthings for the men in your life. At the back of the…More »
22. India Bistro
The BF took me on a date here, since we love the Indian food, and we were exploring new options in our hood, we stopped in to check this place out. I liked the style of the restaurant; the brick walls and decor give the place a warm feeling.
The BF…More »
23. Mr Sushi
Vancouver, BC V6Z 2S7
(604) 683-6750
Category:
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Granville Entertainment District
I gotta say, I was a little nervous about eating here since I had passed by so many times and never seen anyone inside. But the BF was on the hunt for a veggie-based ramen (that means no chicken broth) and this place had it. They make a miso-based…More »
24. Miura Waffle Milk Bar
Vancouver, BC V6Z 1B7
(604) 687-2909
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Downtown
My curiosity got the best of me and I had to try this place out. Somewhere in my mind when I thought of "milk bar" I thought of A Clockwork Orange and thought this place would be a G-rated replica of some sort. Let me tell you, it's not, and it's…More »
25. Yamato Sushi Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6B 2G5
(604) 682-5494
Category:
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Granville Entertainment District
As the search for a staple sushi joint in the West End continues, we stopped in here in hopes that this would be the spot. Unfortunately once I walked in, I knew that wasn't going to happen. Yamato sushi is more of a to-go kinda place than a sit down…More »
26. Thida Thai Resturant
This place could be so much better! The BF came here and has decided he likes this place so I humoured him and came along since my favourite Thai place is closed until Jan.15th! Now that's a winter vacation! Sheesh! Anyways, we came in and the place…More »

27. Tokyo Express
I was a little nervous about ordering from here, since the place was completely empty when I came in. You'd think that when you stroll into a place this empty that it would be spotless, but it was kinda dirty. There were newspapers all over the front…More »
28. Mango Thai
We saw the sign and were stoked for a new Thai restaurant in the hood. Finally the day came when it opened, so we stopped in for dinner. I don't think we were the only ones excited for a new Thai place, cuz the place was packed. But I have found that…More »
29. The Fountainhead Pub
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M5
(604) 687-2222
Categories:
Pubs,
Gastropubs
Neighbourhood: West End
An average pub in the heart of Davie street, where you find yourself surrounded by girly men, and manly girls. The staff are wonderfully hilarious and are as quick with their wit as they are on their feet.
On my last visit I had the veggie…More »

Vancouver, BC V6G 1W1

Categories:
Grocery,
Drugstores
Neighbourhood: West End
I had my first West End 10% off Tuesday shopping experience this week, how exciting! As newbies to the West End, we parked the car on the street, only to discover that we had to make two trips to carry our groceries out because you can't take the…More »
31. Megabite Pizza
After the Pride Parade on Sunday we were on our way back up Davie Street to regroup when I felt the rumblies in my tumblies. Obviously everything on Davie Street was packed, so I deeked into this little pizza slice place to grab one for the road.
I…More »
32. Super Valu
Word on the street is that Super Valu is run by the H.A. Is that why this place is 24/7? Gotta make sure that late night business is taken care of? My late night business is gonna be showing up three sheets to the wind and trying to buy chips at 4am…More »

Canadian (New),
Diners
Neighbourhood: West End
Denny's, we used to be late night friends, we sang songs, danced on tables, and forgot so many memories together. Some of the staff even posed for pictures with us when we showed up in crazy outfits, but after this weekend that all seems like such a…More »

34. The Junction Public House
Pulse, Majestic, or whatever the heck it's called now really needs to stop changing names. I'm not sure if it's getting bought out every time its reinventing itself, nor do I really care. I just wish I knew what to expect everytime I went in there,…More »
35. Speakeasy Bar & Grill
A crew of us came here after work on Friday for some cheapy drinks and fun in the sun. It's been a pretty cold June-uary, so you have to take advantage of the sun when you can.
I was pretty tickled when my gal pals told me that they had double…More »
36. Hamburger Mary's Diner
Late on Saturday night/Sunday morning, I got the drunk texts "meet us at Mary's, hurry up the kitchen is closing." Since the other peeps I was with were just as famished as me after working all night, we loaded up the car and headed out.
This place…More »

Okay, we need to make our friendship work. So now I order my sushi to go, this way I get the choice of having several veggie options to take home with me where I can eat them in the comfort of my home. I get it, sushi is mainly rice and raw fish, and…More »

Somehow I ended up back here, the persuasion of friends shall never be doubted. When we arrived just after 9pm they had a show about to start which included a $12 cover. We weren't really interested in paying a cover, we just wanted somewhere close…More »

Category:

Celebrities and I have a love/hate relationship. I love the staff, love the bar, but hate the patrons, and no, I am not referring to the cute little homos. I used to go to Celebs the first time around, when they had a goth/80's night on Tuesdays with…More »
