The Neate family (owner of JJ Bean Coffee) first started their business in Vancouver in the 1940s delivering coffee and donuts around town. The donut aspect was lost over the years but now they're bringing it back. Enters Neate Donuts at the Oceanic Plaza. The grand opening promotion is not until May 5-10 but I was in the area so I had to go check it out.
Here is a select list of food & drink events happening around town between April and June 2025. They are most likely in Vancouver but I'll try to cover the Lower Mainland and beyond, as much as I can. Obviously, I can't know everything and can't cover everything, but I will continue to update this list until the next quarter comes.
The Vancouver International Wine Festival is back for its 46th year. This year's theme was West Coast U.S. I attended a wine seminar that showcased ten top-tiered wines from the featured region, with winery representatives offering insight into their growing and/or wine-making process. So let me share some of my own tasting notes here.
Until March 1, you will find the Frost & Fable Pop-up on Fridays and Saturdays at Hotel Belmont in Downtown Vancouver. Inspired by an ice cave bar experience, this pop-up serves up unique, interesting cocktails that are paired with an elevated bar bite menu. I had the pleasure to preview this pop-up with Mr., so let me tell you more about it.
I recently went on a walking food tour along the West End of Robson Street in Vancouver. That area has always been known as a foodie spot, with a wide variety of restaurants scattered across several blocks. On this tour, we checked out six restaurants, cafes and bubble tea shops on Robson Street, all within walking distance to each other. Here is the list and what I suggest you order, so save this post so you can go on this foodie tour on your own!
