description: I don’t know how to explain the awesomeness that happens here but check out their website to see just how incredible these are. I suggest hitting the brick and mortar location not far from the Railway Club because they’ve got an added bonus: seasoned fries you season with::text like too many choices AND ice cream. There are veggie options on the menu, too. *dies* www.japadog.com (carts located throughout Vancouver BC)
description: An English pub where you can catch the EPL games.
description: More of a club at night with DJs & comedy but they have breakfast! You can get the American, you know, bacon/ham/sausage, hashbrowns, toast, and eggs, for $9 and they have a kid’s breakfast for $2 (hotcake, bacon/ham/sausage.) Also a great taps selection including at least four dedicated to ciders. Plus their bourbon and scotch list is lovely. Ask for a Honey Badger cocktail.www.themorrisseypub.com
description: A lovely set of beer taps and they do a happy hour.
description: Beer & wine store. fireflyfinewinesandales.com
description: vitiwinelagers.com
description: This is Peruvian food. A breakfast runs $10 and includes coffee, main dish (very basic personal cast iron skillet of chorizo and eggs or other choices), and a baguette. Their dessert counter though, yum.
description: Located in Surrey, near the Surrey Central Skytrain station stop. Or as I call it, getting drunk via Skytrain.
description: Brands::text like George T Stagg, Pappy 20, William Weller at the lowest prices in town according to the local whiskey drinker.
description: Order the Apiary drink. It is lit on fire. Trust me.
description: (back room is the Sha Been) They have happy hour priced whiskies in the back room.
description: If you take the bus there, #19 Bus to Stanley Park. It’s an easy and short trek from downtown plus you receive a $2 admission discount when you display a valid transit pass, such as a FareCard, Daypass, Employer Pass, Farebox, or FareSaver. (Admission is $25.) (Buy an octopus hat in the gift store.) http://www.vanaqua.org/
description: This is FREE and the same bridge height as Capilano Suspension Bridge. The #229 Phibbs Exchange/Westlynn bus & the #228 Lynn Valley bus both stop near Lynn Canyon Park. Take the #229 bus from the bus loop at Phibbs Exchange or take the #228 or #229 from the Seabus, which travels between Vancouver and North Vancouver. The #229 bus does not run from Phibbs Exchange on Sundays. Visit www.translink.ca to plan your ride. http://lynncanyon.ca/
description: $32 and incredible views but if you're on a budget click on Lynn Canyon Park, it's free. http://www.capbridge.com/
description: Reserves play at 11 a.m. take any of these bus lines 004, 022, 043, 044, 049 takes 40 minutes from downtown.
description: Here’s a strange one. They allow you only one flight of tasters or one beer per person and cite some law about not being able to serve more than that. There’s a store attached, but still, so weird for a brewery. Most of their brews are 4-6%, too. To make the trek to Granville Island worth a bit more, also hit up Dockside Brewery.
description: Tourist destination but in the middle of the day when no one is around and you sit at the bar, it’s fantastic. There’s a store attached to pick some up to go and a large patio. These beers actually are higher in alcohol percentage than some of the other breweries I’ve visited. http://steamworks.com/
description: Just everything a caesar (Canadians call bloody marys caesars) could contain is attempted here. No really, here’s a sample from their menu: the Bacon & Egger has vodka, bacon & a hard boiled quails egg; The Godzilla is vodka, sake, soy sauce, wasabi, edamame beans. Who needs breakfast with that?www.millbistro.ca
description: A Carolina-style BBQ joint. They do a bourbon caesar (Canadians call bloody marys caesars) & have fried pickles. Bourbon everything! www.peckinpahbbq.com
description: Beer cocktails, scotch eggs. http://www.bittertastingroom.com/
description: Located inside of the Granville Island Hotel, they don’t cut you off after a flight or one brew. Nice selection but again, low on the alcohol percentages.
description: 50 beers on tap. Boom. http://www.alibi.ca/
description: Open until 4 a.m. makes this a poutine mecca must-have pilgrimage.
description: More poutine and touted as the best in Vancouver because of where their cheese curds come from.www.labellepatate.com
description: Sushi and my favorite spicy tuna cone. Good prices, quick service and very busy. Open until midnight. Mmmm late night sushi right on busy Granville Street. I may or may not frequent this place.
description: Ahi tuna burger!!!! They also have a beautiful portobello veggie burger, with a side of fries. No fries? Add onion rings OR poutine as a pricey side. Also open until midnight, 1 a.m. on the weekends. A bit pricey for a burger, $14-21, though but I guess that’s what fame does to food. www.stackhouseburgerbar.com
description: Quite a bit cheaper ($9-13) than StackHouse and even better? Daily drink specials! Lamb burger is $10.50 plus they get soy patties made especially for their veggie burgers and have tapas. Yes, tapas at a burger joint. Oh Canada! www.roxyburger.com
description: Southern US themed food and drink menu. We tried the Stagger Lee, was a bit sweet but the prices were reasonable. Be there at closing, they give you fresh from the oven cookies. http://www.revelroom.ca/
description: Our bar, in the middle of BC.
description: This is the Southsiders bar and a friendly place. http://www.doolins.ca/
description: Timbers Army entry & exit gate into our house, in the middle of BC.
