Round-Up Cafe

1
10449 King George Blvd, Surrey, BC V3T 2W7

A short walk from Surrey Central Station and City Hall, Round-Up Cafe has been serving greasy spoon favourites since 1949. Retro décor enthusiasts will instantly be drawn to the diner’s kitschy neon sign and classic black-and-white tile flooring, but they’ll stay for an equally iconic roster of cheese-loaded omelettes and syrup-slathered hot cakes. Adding a uniquely Ukranian twist to breakfast, you can also ask your server to bring a side of perogies with your morning meal.

Fresh Restaurant & Lounge

2
15269 104th Avenue, Surrey, BC V3R 1N5

With a focus on using locally-sourced ingredients, the breakfast options at Fresh Restaurant & Lounge are exactly what its namesake implies. Located in the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel, the restaurant uses Fraser Valley-area fruits, vegetables, eggs and meats for its variety of wraps, Benedicts and more. If you can’t decide what to get, a full buffet lets you go local in a big way.

Central City Brew Pub + Restaurant

3
13450 102nd Avenue, Surrey, BC V3T 5X3

Though not a traditional brunch spot, this popular gastropub near Surrey Central Station has some great late morning options. Try a green garden bowl topped with grilled pineapple, baby kale and aged cheddar, or their tangy crispy caesar wrap. With their stills just feet away from your table, you’ll want to pair your meal with any of Central City’s in-house IPAs or ciders.

Mcjac's Roadhouse Grill

4
1781 King George Blvd, Surrey, BC V4A 4Z9

Truckers, foodies and everyone in between are rolling into Mcjac’s for their mouthwatering breakfast menu. The Southwestern omelette sizzles with spiced chicken, salsa and a side of refried beans, but a build-your-own option lets you pick anything from fresh shrimp to bell peppers. Looking for a pick-me-up the morning after a party? Then consider the Roadhouse’s comfort food cure, the Hangover Pizza (with scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, bacon, cheese on hollandaise sauce).

Be-Wiched Cafe

5
102-15230 56 Ave, Surrey, BC V3S 5K7

As the name implies, Be'Wiched is a must for anyone looking for a two-handed, toasted sammy, but this South Surrey café has got plenty of space on their menu for breakfast favourites. From fresh-baked muffins and granola parfaits, to an apple-stuffed French toast, to a breakfast sandwich full of sweet potato and turkey sausage, Be'Wiched offers some of Surrey’s most enchanting morning options.

Happy Jacks Cafe Ltd

6
110-10470 152 St, Surrey, BC V3R 0Y3

While tucked away behind Guildford Town Centre, Happy Jack’s modest, near-hidden set up is a must for many working in the area. Whether it’s a hollandaise- and ham-heavy Benedict, pancake stacks with a side of crispy bacon or just a bold cup of coffee, Happy Jack’s affordable breakfast standbys will put a smile on your face.

Morrison Cafe

7
12855 16 Ave, Surrey, BC V4A 1N5

Located deep in South Surrey, the cozy Morrison Cafe is an old-fashioned diner with plenty of twists on a traditional breakfast. Try a taste of the West Coast with their smoked salmon- and capers-infused Benedict. Take a trip down south with their Mexican scramble, or order up the Black Watch, their Britannia-style black pudding. Save room for dessert: while a strawberries and cream covered waffle will hit your sweet tooth just right, the kitchen also has a handle on a devilishly decadent peanut butter pie.

Marpole may be a bit removed from the rest of Vancouver’s busy nightlife scene, but there’s still plenty of action happening down by the Fraser River. From brewery-fresh ales to breathtaking waterfront views, here’s just a sampling of what you can catch down in the Southside. [Photo credit: iStock/piskunov]
Whether you call it Hastings-Sunrise or the East Village, you can find plenty of nighttime fun in the neighbourhood right beside the PNE. Whether it’s hoisting a mug when the house plays your favourite metal jam or swigging cheap suds between bites from a footlong, here are some top spots to grab a beer the next time you’re deep in the Eastside. [Photo credit: iStock/izuesek]
Fraserhood is one of Vancouver’s most rapidly changing neighbourhoods, with the area surrounding Fraser and Kingsway offering a wide array of spots to pop in for a pint. Whether it’s a gastropub pouring Vancouver craft beers or a longtime favourite that offers cheap drinks and a chance to be a karaoke star, these are some of Fraserhood’s greatest spots for some suds. [Photo credit: iStock/Silvrshootr]
