Top 10 Things to do in East Vancouver, Canada
Vancouver was founded as “Gastown” by an Englishman with a penchant for beer and storytelling. Today Gastown is a historic section of the Canadian metropolis, and the lively pubs still reflect the area’s former status as a sort of community drinking center. The city’s forests, grand parks, and impressive suspension bridge beckon travelers to explore them, as do the city’s shops and museums. Relive the glory of the 2010 Winter Games with visits to Olympic venues and the marvelous Olympic Cauldron.

A super sampling of one of Vancouver’s best craft beer AND wineries. Food looked very good. We were in for a one and done pint/glass so we did not sample the food. Staff were great,courteous and provided a historical account of the building. First incarnation was a World War II airplane propeller plant. Check it out.

Went for lunch with a couple of fellow workers to this hidden away brew pub. Actually lots of people for a Wednesday mid-day. Ordered a chicken caesar wrap, and waffle fries. The wrap was one of the best I have ever had, and I've had a lot of wraps. A number of other food choices that also looked very good at adjoining tables (separated by clear plexiglass. Prices were good. Didn't have beer, but huge choices for beer lovers. Great lunch or snack spot!
