This is a very popular little breakfast and brunch place if you want something more substantial than the light breakfast we provide. It gets busy, so you may need to wait in line. There are several other breakfast places in the area I can point you to if you don't want to wait.

Getting Around
The Seven Eleven is a convenience store for small grocery items, toiletries you might have forgotten.
It's also a good place to buy a day pass for the transit system ($9.75 CAD for unlimited travel for one day) or a compass pass (a reloadable card you can use for multiple days). I provide some compass cards you can borrow and load with fares to use. More information on the info sheet on the fridge.

Drinks & Nightlife
This is the closest of the many craft breweries near here. There are many more within walking distance that I have not included. I'm not a beer person, personally, but people do seem to really like them, and often go on walking tours of the areas' breweries and taprooms.
