Most popular brunch spot. Be prepared to wait hours in line. Yummy waffles, maybe worth it if you have lots of spare time. It is delicious, can't lie about that. Downtown so you'll bus or drive down there.

This is actually well beyond brunch because it's 24 hours! It's a chain around the city and this is its first location. Has delicious food and fresh bread.

PARKS
This park is a couple blocks away. It has a tennis court, basketball court, baseball field, offleash dog park, playground and mountain views on top of all that! We love it. Great for a picnic.

Major sightseeing spot in the city. It's a gorgeous park in the middle of Coal Harbour (DT neighbourhood). Goes very long and wraps around multiple beaches. Great spot to rent bikes and go around the seawall to explore downtown Vancouver, beaches and neighbourhoods.

This is much more than a park and is a Vancouver staple. It goes blocks and blocks, has the most beautiful gardens and great for a picnic. Free to enter and lots of parking (mostly paid).

Neighborhoods
We're right outside of Mt Pleasant, it's a really funky, hipster neighbourhood. Some fun history is that it was pretty much a forgotten neighboorhood until about 10 years ago and is now one of the most sought after! Great thrift shops, restaurants and walking around. You can walk down or take a quick bus/cab/bike ride if you like.

This is the "uppity" neighbourhood of downtown. You'll likely run into some famous people here (or people who think they're famous). Very cute shops, fancy restaurants, and lounges.

Beautiful and historic neighbourhood downtown. Worth checking out. Watch where you're going as it's also right next to the biggest homeless area in the city.

Sports!
Cheap fun baseball games. It's just below the major league, so tickets are easily accessible and affordable (and so is food when you're there). It's a 5 minute bike ride or bit longer of a walk. Totally worth it.

Beach in the city
We have tons of beaches in Vancouver. This one is probably the most trendy and is ALWAYS busy. Be prepared for tons of people watching. Lots of very trendy restaurants. Kits is pretty hard to bus to from anywhere in the city so you will probably need to drive/cab or bike.

Good for kids
So much fun! Great if you're coming with kids or just like science. It does have adult-only nights every so often, which are really cool. Right next to a subway stop.
