Vancouver after dark

It ends early, which catches visitors out. Brewery taprooms on Main Street and in East Vancouver often stop pouring around eleven. The Granville strip runs to three and is the loudest and roughest option, while Gastown's cocktail rooms are the civilised one. The last SkyTrain leaves around one and the Canada Line stops sooner, so plan the trip home before the final round.

What to eat in Vancouver

Vancouver eats Japanese better and cheaper than most of North America, from neighbourhood izakaya to the Japadog carts downtown. The dim sum, though, is in Richmond, where Cantonese kitchens outclass anything in Chinatown. Spot prawns land in a short May-to-June season the whole city tracks. Granville Island's market handles the picnic version. Nanaimo bars, three layers and no baking, are the local sweet.

What's actually worth your time in Vancouver

Stanley Park's ten-kilometre seawall and the Brockton Point poles cost nothing and outrank most paid attractions in the city. The honest call on suspension bridges: Capilano charges heavily, while Lynn Canyon in North Vancouver is free, quieter and swings just as much. Granville Island's public market deserves a morning. Gastown's steam clock is two minutes of whistling and a crowd, so see it and move on.

What things cost in Vancouver

Stored-value adult fares run $2.85 for one zone, $4.20 for two and $5.40 for three, with an all-zone DayPass at $12.55 and children under twelve riding free. The Museum of Anthropology charges $26. Coffee is about $5. Sales tax is added at the till rather than shown on the shelf, and card terminals suggest tips starting near eighteen percent.

Vancouver's museums, and which one to pick

The Museum of Anthropology at UBC charges $26 for Bill Reid's Raven and the First Men and a hall of Northwest Coast house posts lit through glass walls; it stays open until nine on Thursdays and closes Mondays between mid-October and mid-May. The Vancouver Art Gallery holds the Emily Carr collection. Science World occupies the geodesic dome left standing after Expo 86.
