If you have ever gone to a luau, or wanted to, this place will give you serious tropical vibes. Enjoy Polynesian cocktails and cuisine, as well as a purely exotic ambiance with island-themed decor. This is your classic tiki bar but will make you feel like you aren’t in “Raincover” at all.

Perhaps one of Vancouver’s very well known “cool” restaurant, The Eatery never loses it’s appeal. This sushi restaurant’s decor has been entertaining people since 1983 (after all all good things came from the 80s right?). With funky art, humourous quotes, this is the “coolest” place to have your Asian fusion meal. Yes the sushi is delicious as well.
Address: 3431 W. Broadway, Vancouver
Loula’s Taverna & Bar

The sister restaurant of Nammos Estiatorio, arguably the best Greek restaurant in Vancouver, is Loula’s. This place recently opened up on Commercial Drive, and is already a popular destination. Not only is the food phenomenal, but the decor will make you feel you are dining in Athens.

If you love Vietnamese food, this place will not only entertain your taste buds but will transport you to a tropical oasis. Part of the charm of this beautiful restaurant is all the photo opportunities with the lush green backdrops, bright pink florals, and even a swing.
