They Say The Neon Lights Are Bright On West Broadway
See All Lists
1. Parthenon Supermarket
Vancouver, BC V6K 2H1
(604) 733-4191
Categories:
Ethnic Food,
Grocery
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
This is my first visit post-fire (their 3rd fire I think) to Parthenon. The store looks a little more upscale than it did pre-fire but the breadth of merchandise appears to have remained the same.
They continue to have a nice variety of all things…More »
2. Harvest Deli
Is the honeymoon already over?
I returned to Harvest Deli Friday just before noon to try another sandwich from their extensive menu. The chef/owner was sitting at a cafe table in front. I asked him if the deli was open for business. He said that he…More »

If you love a good sandwich then this is a place you need to give a try.
I was overwhelmed by the… Read more »
3. Greek Day On Broadway
Unless you want to fill your stomach, there really isn't a lot to this festival.
I was frankly disappointed with the lack of Greek cultural stuff. Other than a few people dressed up like ancient Greeks, there wasn't much happening. When we arrived…More »
4. Grenadine
The store's tagline is sugar and spice and all things nice. It is located right next to Cafe Artigiano on Broadway. The window display is attractive. All looks promising and I can't wait to enter. Alas, the inside this store bears a resemblance to a…More »
5. Cafe Mumbai - CLOSED
Vancouver, BC V6K 2G6
(604) 737-2500
Dining here was like the "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly".
We ordered the beef vindaloo, chicken korma, rice and naan.
The good:
We received a friendly greeting upon entering and outstanding service throughout our meal. The decor was warm and fairly…More »
6. Westside Sporting Goods Company
Vancouver, BC V5Y 1P3
(604) 739-4425
Category:
Sporting Goods
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant
My husband needed a new waterproof shell so we decided to hit all of the outdoor apparel stores along this section of Broadway. I think it was shopping fatigue that led us to buy the jacket here, not because this store was exceptionally good.
This…More »
7. Benkei Noodle Shop
Solid middle of the road ramen.
I had the Shoyu Ramen with extra sprouts. My husband had the Miso with extra sprouts and spinach. I thought my ramen was a little skimpy on the noodles but the few that were there had a nice chew to them. The broth was…More »
8. Al Basha
Vancouver, BC V6K 2H2
(604) 568-8841
Category:
Middle Eastern
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
You have been a little skimpy on portion size lately Al Basha!

Al Basha has always been one of a couple of my favourite shawarma places, but based on today's… Read more »
9. Hoshi Sushi Japanese Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6K 2G6
(604) 739-4791
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
Hoshi is clean, the service is decent and they are consistent in delivering fresh, well-made tasty sushi.
Our standard order is Negitoro Maki, Spicy Tuna Roll, Unagi Roll, Inari and Miso Soup and we have never been disappointed after many visits and…More »
10. Olympia Pizza
Vancouver, BC V6K 2H5
(604) 732-5334
It seems that we have a lot of neighbours who grew up in this neighbourhood and never left. When we speak to them about food they always speak very highly about Olympia Pizza which has been a fixture in this part of town since the 60's. We decided…More »
11. Oh Brothers
Vancouver, BC V6K 2E9
(604) 738-6695
Categories:
Home Decor,
Art Galleries
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
It is nice to find a place with a broad selection of work by Canadian artists without having to go to Granville Island. Oh! Brothers carries woodwork, jewelry, pottery, glassware, textiles, paintings, prints, leatherwork and First Nation art work.

Printing Services

I work for a realtor who has used In Print for over a year now for all of our marketing materials - feature sheets, just listed cards, just sold cards, business cards, presentation folders, stationery, etc.
Dave is very responsive and the materials…More »
13. Regal Beagle
Vancouver, BC V6K 2E4
(604) 739-0677
With the permanent closure of the Frog & Firkin up the block we decided to pop in to the Regal Beagle with a couple of friends for a few drinks after dinner. The bar is essentally 2 separate rooms with the kitchen on the left and the bar on the…More »
14. Bow Wow Haus
Vancouver, BC V6K 2G7
(604) 568-8959
Categories:
Pet Stores,
Pet Groomers
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
I was excited to spot this pet store open in what I think was the former location of the clothing store called Ingenue. There really is not much for pets in this part of town since the Three Dog Bakery moved up to Point Grey.
As much as I would love…More »
15. Uncle Fatih's Pizza
Yuck. Sometimes even a super-cheap price can't overcome the fact that the food is realllllllly bad.
There wasn't a customer in the place when I arrived shortly before noon. I ordered a slice of spicy chicken, a slice of pesto cheese and a soda. Thank…More »
16. Peaceful Restaurant
I started coming here after a few less than good experiences at Sha Lin and now I wouldn't dream of going anyplace else for my shaved or hand-pulled noodles.
After trying numerous different dishes on the menu, which were all very good, we have settled…More »
17. Cru Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6H 1H6
(604) 677-4111
Category:
French
Neighbourhoods: Fairview Slopes, South Granville
This was the first of many more visits to Cru.
I loved the decor, it is modern and understated while still managing to be warm and comfortable.
The organic greens salad with the vinaigrette dressing was nothing to write home about although it was…More »
18. Transylvania Flavour Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6K
(604) 730-0880
Category:
Modern European
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
I can't say that I had given much thought about the flavour of Transylvanian food before but after passing by this place about 100 times we decided to bite ;-).
What a pleasant surprise! The decor is nondescript but the service was welcoming and…More »
19. Moderne Burger
As someone who doesn't eat mammals, a dinner out at a burger joint usually doesn't hold much appeal, that is, until I experienced the turkey burger at Moderne Burger. The moist, flavourful turkey burger is made for the owner to his specifications so…More »
20. Larch Grocery and Flowers
Vancouver, BC V6K 2E9
(604) 738-7017
Category:
Convenience Stores
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
I'm a gal who likes to buy herself flowers. Come spring, my house Is filled with so many tulips that it looks like I should also have wheels of gouda and wooden shoes lying around too. Orchids, tulips, topiaries - the Larch Grocery is my flower…More »
21. Kitsilano Natural Foods
Vancouver, BC V6K 2G3
(604) 738-0326
Categories:
Grocery,
Animal Shelters
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
I have a love-hate relationship with this place. This former Dan-D market has every Dan-D product at very good prices and excellent deals on bulk goods, spices and packaged organics. However, their fresh produce is not very good and their sales…More »
22. Mistral Bistro
I'm being VERY charitable with my 3 only because we paid $28 per person with Dine Out.
The decor is charming and clearly conveys the atmosphere of a bistro in France. We received a friendly greeting upon arrival and had our choice of seating. We…More »
