LUGR Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 get yer asses to the cambie. at 36 bucks for two drinks you musta been at the bloody four seasons. aquarium is chillin. get to north vancouver. go to the quay, which is a pretty kool marketplace. get lunch there. good view of the city. then maybe go up to grouse mountain while your on that side of the water. theres a ton of shit to do here. if you want anymore info pm me ill get you off in the right directions depending on what you what yer style is. I was surprised how much it costs to drink there also, the Cambie def had the cheapest drinks i found. I was also staying at the 4Seasons though LOL. Co-sign Grouse Mountain and North Van...Also, the suspension bridges half way to Grouse are worth checking out. All very expensive but worth it. Take the water ferry and then bus to get there. Also, go to Granville Island Brewery http://www.gib.ca/ I really enjoyed the few days I spent in Vancouver and you will too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reuben Kinkaid Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Lynn Canyon has a pretty sweet suspension bridge too, and has good hiking trails. It's not as big as Capilano Bridge but it's free and not full of Japanese tourists. But don't go jumping in to the rapids like some drunk rebellious teen.....that shit will trap you and you'll die. Also if you're out that way Deep Cove is a sweet little town to drink in. Enjoy the locals gawking at you while you get beligerently drunk! Vancouver's on Google Maps street view now! It's like I can go back to pigeon park and scour the streets for heroin without all the hassle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how long you're there for but Wineo's on Granville and Nelson sells $6 pitchers on Tuesdays. It's a pretty cool little joint and has a secret back room behind a bookshelf. I think it's cool anyway. ALSO, the Templeton for brunch. Or the Diner in Point Grey for an authentic full English! I don't know why I'm still giving suggestions I don't live there anymore...

Reuben Kinkaid Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 On closer inspection I see you're there for 3 days. What kind of crappy vacation is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 50million Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 portland for 3 vancouver for three...then we gotta go back to work. ya know, money runs out on vacations and shit. thanks everyone for the suggestions. i really appreciate it. this place is awesome. we would consider moving here if we had an opportunity. going to get poutine / rodney's oyster house / chinatown / gastown? (SP?) / east hastings possibly blastrap if we are feeling up to it. if not...some random cheap car will do. the cambie i suppose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HydrogenPeroxide Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 there's a bunch of bars in Gastown. I recommend you go to Steamworks Brew Pub for a pint of the pumpkin ale if you're kicking around there in the afternoon. I'm going there for lunch to pound a few back.

I can fully endorse wino's on tuesdays. its cheap as it gets on the strip, and its a small spot so its usually PACKED. they also have decent finger food as well, you can order a ton of stuff for next to nothing. in addition to the fake bookshelf thing, they also have the dj up in this cramped little loft. it has a bucket on a rope so they can send up beer to him.
