Guidebook for Vancouver
Food Scene
Open 24/7, this newest installment of a Vancouver standard offers top notch goodies of all persuasions, both sweet and savory. Too many delicious things to recommend just one. (But I'll say the dutch apple torte is a steal of a deal.)

Drinks & Nightlife
The only pub in the area that feels like a real neighborhood pub and not a sports bar (although there are TVs). Live music many nights.

Parks & Nature
This part of the beachfront is our absolute favorite spot to hang out. There is a tree-lined area of the beach just east of the sailing centre that is perfect on a hot/sunny day and offers stunning views of downtown, the mountains, the ocean and beyond. The Sailing Centre itself has a restaurant on the upper level - the food itself is typical grill style food - but the patio seating overlooking the ocean is the real reason to eat here.

If you want a lovely garden setting to wander around this is a great place to do it. Lunch in their cafe or restaurant is also a very relaxing thing to do.

One of the best views of and in the city. Seasons in the Park is also a nice place for a fancy meal or just a drink. A wander around the garden or playing in the fountain at the top on a hot day is also recommended
