1. Pizzeria Barbarella
It's only been 14 days into the month, and I've already gone back. What have you done to me?
Just wanted to write an additional recommendation for the list:
---
filetti - fior di latte, oven dried cherry tomatoes, basil, fresh garlic, sea salt,…More »

I'm so incredibly disappointed in myself for not only having passed by this place so many times… Read more »
2. French Made Baking
Vancouver, BC V5T 3J1
(604) 558-4880
Very, very good. Glad they opened so close to home because now I can get amazing pain au chocolat ($3.00) without having to go to Granville Island.
Had the opportunity to try one of the hot chocolates during the Hot Chocolate Festival and while it was…More »
3. Rhizome Café
Vancouver, BC V5T 1W5
(604) 872-3166
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Vegetarian
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
Why yes, I DO love brunch at Rhizome.
Run by a small staff, the servers are always friendly and greet you with a smile. Coffee is bottomless, and the ambiance is perfect.
This is typically my go-to place for Saturday brunch when I can't be arsed to…More »
4. Kafka's Coffee and Tea
Vancouver, BC V5T 3E5
(604) 569-2967
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
I always find it funny that between Broadway and 10, there are 4, 5 (?!) coffee shops, but only one with coffee worth drinking. Kafka's is such a pleasant alternative to the coffee shops on Main.
It's lit by sunlight, and just feels ... invigorating…More »
5. The Wallflower Modern Diner
Vancouver, BC V5T 3E2
(604) 568-7554
Categories:
Diners,
Gluten-Free,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
Breakfast poutine with poached eggs and gravy.
Baked spaghetti.
Perogies.
Baked Apple "Pie."
These are just a few of my favourite things.
The Wallflower is my go-to place when I can't be bothered to make dinner for myself. They recently redid their menu…More »
6. Red Sea Cafe
Vancouver, BC V5T 1X6
(604) 873-3332
Category:
Ethiopian
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
My hands still smell so delicious!
Ethiopian food is served on a huge plate of injera - teff flour based flatbread with a slightly acidic taste. It's weird on its own, but freaking AMAZING with the accompanying dishes. There are no utensils, so wash…More »
7. Fassil Ethiopian Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5T 1X9
(604) 879-2001
Category:
Ethiopian
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
Cozy, family-run Ethiopian restaurant that makes you feel like you've been invited into a friend's home. Despite our group of 6, the server - which was really the owner's son - was hospitable and incredibly charming.
Having visited a good handful of…More »
8. Marulilu Cafe
Vancouver, BC V5Y
(604) 568-4211
Categories:
Japanese,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
I've been here on two very different occasions. Once, after a very very ridiculous industry night, and once, after a long day of cleaning.
This tiny little cafe gave me the little bit of Japan that I missed. From the quaint decor, to the extensive…More »
9. Liberty Bakery
I randomly wandered into Liberty Bakery a few years ago and I must have looked confused, because an old lady turned to me and said, "if you want to get anything, you have to get a slice of the almond coffee cake. I've been buying it every weekend for…More »
10. Welk's Discount Store
Oh Welk's. Why are you so awesome?
Other than groceries, it's my one-stop-shop for every household and garden items I ever need. Hell, I could even pick up juice and chips here too.
It's not the cheapest, but it's definitely one of the most convenient…More »
11. Sushiyama
The only way to describe Sushiyama is that it's everything you need, right when you need it. No frills.
Being open until 11pm - sometimes 12am! - it's the best place to order takeout after a long, long day of work. Pick-up is usually within 20…More »
12. The Rumpus Room
Vancouver, BC V5T 3E7
(604) 568-5663
Categories:
Canadian (Traditional),
Breakfast & Brunch,
Lounges
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
Rumpus Room is a great place for a decently priced bite.
Alas, they could use a service make-over. While they're friendly, they tend to get distracted by friends who are there, and neglect to visit the table after you get your food. After we ate, we…More »
13. Reno's Restaurant
Have you ever wanted to see what Main Street was like before pretentious hipsters took over with their "pour-over coffee and vegan/gluten-free everything but the bacon"? Check out Reno's.
This place has the most eclectic type of regulars I've ever…More »
