Inheriting a particular style of a European boutique hotel, Wedgewood Hotel & Spa welcomes you with a cozy, awe-inspiring lobby made of solid wood wainscoting.

"Vancouver's best museum is studded with spectacular First Nations totem poles and breathtaking carvings – but it's also teeming with artifacts from cultures around the world, from Polynesian instruments to Cantonese opera costumes. Take one of the free daily tours (check ahead for times) for some context, but give yourself at least a couple of hours to explore on your own. It's easy to immerse yourself here. "

"Old-school tradition meets West Coast style at East Van’s Strange Fellows Brewing. While some of their more notable beers include the Guardian White IPA and the wonderfully punny Czarcasm Russian Imperial Session Ale, what Strange Fellows does best are their unique, barrel-aged sour beers. The brewery hosts the Charles Clark Gallery, too, so you can take in some rotating local art alongside your tasting flight."

"A classic good beer and grub joint, Strange Fellows has it all. You’ve probably picked up a pack of SF tall boys, but if you haven’t checked out their East Van tasting room you’re missing out. Besides being as hip as you’d expect anything to be in East Van, SF also hosts the Charles Clark Gallery where you can admire the work of a bunch of rotating local artists."

"The craft beer flights are flowing on this patio with an industrial vibe. A hidden gem, in the heart of Lower Lonsdale. 123A 1st St East12pm to 9pm – seven days a weekStreetcarbrewing.square.site"
