I am in love with this venue.

Cliche but true: this place is a diamond in the rough. Nestled in the not-so-cozy DTES across from the police station, this unexpected venue is a true GEM. It is a huge space accented with rich reds, golden brown tiles,…More »

I am loving it here in Rhizome... 2 of my friends and I are working on work/school projects and we were just commenting about how this is the best coffee shop that we have worked in so far.  We're on a wifi hop to find the best coffee/work space!…More »

Oh Snap!!  I'm a fan.  It's simple, delicious, and the atmosphere is fantastic-- comfortable and down to earth.  The owner, Colin is the neatest guy and made us feel SO at home.   The soups are amazing (I've been twice in the past two weeks so I…More »

Ok, so I'm from Kamloops, so I can dig an old school pub as much as Richard Simmons can love short shorts.  I went here with some friends and we had a blast.  There are old people everywhere (awesome) cheap drinks, shuffleboard, darts, keno, karaoke…More »

Toby's is a great neighborhood pub that outclasses the neighborhood (my hood, baby!) in a refreshing way. The pub has a classy British pub look that is warm inviting. I love that. The upstairs area I like best... it just seems brighter up there and…More »

Wow, I had such a great experience at Romers. I came for their grand opening (held months after they opened) where they served free food to the public. Nice! The best part was that I got to sample a lot of lil' things:

The Righteous Rib burger was my…More »

Oh the Wise Hall. It has a charm about it that I can't quite explain. During my last visit there (for the amazing Rain City Chronicles) I was quite taken by the ancient fabric wallpaper, plain architecture and modest bathrooms. It's a humble venue…More »

Bowling, like most sporting activities, is a weak spot for me. But boy, am I good at the game called gutter ball! My own version of the game is not intentional, but let's just say at Rev's I won. GB champion. Hazaaa!!

As Mark H mentioned, the…More »

I've paintballed (is that a verb?) in Kamloops, Regina and Vancouver, indoor and outdoor and North Shore Paintball is a real treat. I'm not an expert shoots-man (more of an expert 'hides-man') but I had a blast and that certainly counts for…More »

Please, for the love of everything good in this world, try their macarons. Almond-flavoured mini sandwiches of delicate sweetness. One bite and I was catapulted to euphoria. Oh please, can I just have one (make that ten) more..?

Great & spacious community venue with a view of the water. BALLER! The free parking and newness of the facility seems surreal. Clearly I need to buy a unit in the Olympic Village.

Wow. What a way to enjoy the city. With panoramic views at 430 feet it's hard to not enjoy life at the top. Though the Shangri-la dwarfs Harbour Centre considerably, the Lookout's height is actually ideal because it's low enough to still make out…More »
