Casual, yet sophisticated dishes, an appealing appetizer menu, and a killer cocktail list served indoors in Glo’s sophisticated, modern dining room, or outdoors on their scenic patio looking over the Gorge Waterway. Great for business lunches, date nights, or hanging out with friends late into the evening. A few minutes north of downtown but well worth the trip. Highly recommended.

Some of the most eclectic 24-hour menu selections in Vancouver. Mexican torta sandwiches, Fritou fried chicken, hamburgers, all-day breakfast, Chinese food, and Vietnamese noodle soup just to name a few (with a clientele as varied as the menu offerings). “Duck and cover” cold war décor with pre-fabricated furniture indestructible enough to survive nuclear Armageddon add to the charm. What more can we say except you might need some Rolaids after a visit to Duffin’s, but who cares when the food is as good and invigorating as these fine offerings.

One of our favorite places for a quick, casual bite. Warm lively atmosphere and great prices. Highlights include rotisserie chicken and thin crust pizzas prepared in wood fired ovens. Kid’s menu too

Canoe’s stunning patio is the ultimate spot to enjoy fine craft beer on a summer afternoon. On cooler days step inside and enjoy the stunning brick and timber architecture and live music on weekends.

Monty’s favourite lounge. Definitely a splurge, but worth it for the relaxed opulence of the British Raj theme and the popular curry buffet. Romantic and sophisticated, it’s an experience you won’t soon forget.
