My honest, lived in list of Vancouver favourites, from the parks and viewpoints we keep going back to, to the restaurants and little spots worth the trip. Everything here is somewhere I actually love, gathered for anyone visiting or new to the city.

Crave Cheesesteaks
Absolutely UNREAL! so affordable and the perfect meal for a rainy day.
Peaked Pies
We order this once a week and it’s absolutely delicious and 15 dollars. Hands down the best ramen in the city. There is usually a line but if you order on Uber Eats they will deliver in 20 minutes.

This is THE pizza place for our family.

Love to take a drive to horseshoe bay and grab some fish and chips (and donuts)
C-Lovers Horseshoe Bay - The Best Fish & Chips in Town!
I like these guys I find the balance the flavours perfectly. Not overly sweet. Just perfect.
Goldie's Donuts & Bakery
This place really has it all. Good hikes, sandwiches, donuts. Clean bathrooms. Hikes and insane scenery. The park here is fun and has a water view.
Deep Cove
Literally the only gym in the city with child minding. Good classes, nice coffee shop. Good clean changerooms. The vibe here is a bit pretentious but can’t beat the amenities.
