Vancouver Restaurants

  1. Elbow Room

    Expect some verbal sparring at this local hangout where the jokily abusive servers will greet you with the line 'Move your ass to the table,' then shimmy over to demand 'Are you ready to order, or what?'. It's all meant warmly - if they don't insult you, they really don't like you - so make sure you give as good as you get. Breakfasts including eggs Benny and 'big-ass pancakes' are legendary here, but the bulging burgers are excellent, too.

  2. Paul's Place Omelettery

    You'll be jostling for space with strollers and chatty moms at this unassuming breakfast joint near the south side of Granville Bridge, but it's worth it. The menu is short and sweet, but it's grounded on 12 signature omelets, including a chock-a-block vegetarian option that will make carnivores eye you jealously. A great place to warm yourself up on a rainy Vancouver morning, there's also a lunch menu of hearty sandwiches.
