A favourite for weekend brunch (although they serve it every day), Heirloom excels in providing beautiful, airy spaces and a mouth-watering menu. Dishes are full of colour and taste, and portions are refreshingly large."

This spot offers a killer selection of pizzas along with an unreal vegetarian brunch and offers craft beer in its dining rooms."

"A big meal here doesn’t leave you feeling regretful, bloated or like you need to go run 10km. Tip: Stranger Wings is the cult favorite. Order with all the dipping sauces!!"

"As for late night munchies you can’t go wrong with a quick trip to The Naam. These guys have been ‘doing’ vegetarian since before it was a thing and that has noticeably given them time to perfect their craft. Delicious, no-fuss, quick and easy veggie comfort food."

"This Vancouver vegan and vegetarian restaurant has been around for 50 years. Yes, they know what they are doing and the line up out the door proves it is a favourite with many. The Naam is open 24/7."

"Your mom might call Budgies grungy, but residents of the neighbourhood love this cozy, colourful spot for its cheap and cheerful Mexican food -- all of which is vegetarian. Sub the cheese and sour cream for guacamole or dairy-free cheese to make it vegan. Veggie ground round and tofurkey is also on the menu."

"You'll be jostling for space with chatty locals at this breakfast and lunch joint near the south side of Granville Bridge. But it's worth it: the cozy, super-friendly place is superior to most bacon-and-eggs... Top ChoiceVegan in Downtown & West End"

"This Kitsilano spot is atmospheric, romantic, and a bit mysterious, with its tight hours (5 p.m. to 9 p.m., closed Wednesdays) and retro-cozy dining room bedecked in octopus-themed Japanese kitsch. Here’s where to try gourmet novelties like a “shooter” of uni and rice, a foie gras “sushi pocket”, tempura lobster, or the “untouchable” nigiri with Wagyu beef, uni, and white truffles ($30 a pop). Consider the complimentary gummy candy octopi the spoonful of sugar you may need to help the bill go down"

"Octopus’s Garden has amazing food and a great bar, making it a great spot for great conversation over food and wine on date night with your significant other. The omakase is one to write home about, with high quality and a gorgeous presentation. If you are looking for authentic Japanese food in Vancouver, Octopus’s Garden is the spot for you."

"Kingyo is a quintessential Vancouver experience and one of the first places we recommend going to if you’ve just arrived. This creative Japanese small plates spot is perfect after walking along the seawall surrounding nearby Stanley Park (a forest surrounded by beautiful beaches) and being yelled at by rollerbladers for walking on the bike path. Some of the best dishes on the menu are the kobe beef that arrives with its own mini tongs and hot stone, deep fried blue cheese-stuffed lotus root, and tuna tataki."

"The flagship restaurant of the Tamaru Shoten Group, these guys do fantastic Japanese fusion cuisine, with an emphasis on Japanese and not fusion. We really enjoy their udon dishes, but you need to try their hot stone wagyu beef at least once in your lifetime. Cooking meat on a rock?"

"Entering through Kingyo’s door is like wandering into a great pub in the middle of Shinjuku. Loud and almost always packed, Kingyo is one of the most consistent, and one of the busiest, izakayas in Vancouver. Although you can get sushi, the cooked dishes are the real standouts."

"Founded in 2005 on Main Street, Umeboshi is known for its selection of unique footwear and complementary accessories. Owner Stephanie Gorrell focuses on handcrafted wares from independent designers. She says, “Each piece has a history to share, and it is our joy to muse on it with you.” Some of the designers at Umeboshi include Anne Thomas, Maryam Nassir Zadeh, Soludos, and Veja sneakers."
