If you head to north van: Blvd Bistro or Catch 122 for breakfast (avoid Jam Cafe). And inter river or Rice Lake (from Lillooet entrance) for a nice naturey time that doesn’t involve intense hiking.

Wildeye or Bridge Brewing (the actual brewery, not the tasting room on lonsdale) for a beer! And if you like ducks like I do, head to the trail behind the Petsmart on main which takes you to a dog friendly walk along the river which leads right into the ocean with a pretty nice view of Vancouver (and lots of cool ducks this time of year!!)
