Looking to grab brunch this weekend and wondering what everyone’s favourite brunch spot is.

    Really depends what you’re into! I love the Mezcaliera for a fun Mexican brunch but honestly, just walking down the Drive and popping in wherever interests you is a pretty good recipe.

        Charlatan is better for their brunch drinks than food, Tangent cafe is kind of classic brunch foods, Chancho looks delicious but I still haven’t had it for brunch…

      Was there a DimSum place on, like the 6th/top floor of a parking garage almost overlooking the SunYatSen Garden?

      I had so much wonderful stuff there, years ago, that it was almost life-changing! ;-)

    we visited a few years ago and had brunch at The Teahouse in Stanley park. A bit expensive, and the food was okay, but the setting was great.

    Mahoney & Sons at the convention center by harbour air. Nice views of the north shore while watching seaplanes taking off/landing. Good food too

      Have you been since they renovated? Instead of an Irish pub it has the feel of a community center cafeteria. I almost expected ping pong tables in the upper seating area. I had the Philly cheesesteak (classic Irish pub food) and it was bone dry and the only flavor was the processed cheese slices.

      I’m not a picky eater and usually cringe when I’m with a party complaining about their food. I’ve been the guy at the table who ordered the same thing as everyone else and they sent their back because it was cold after I had eaten all of mine because it was good and not too hot.

      I can’t imagine what you have to do to a Philly cheesesteak to make it not greasy, but they managed to do it in the most unappetizing way possible. It was really bad. Like I almost complained about it, but it was so bad I didn’t want to even consider eating anything else from that kitchen. Like really bad. So bad I’m willing to tell anyone who will listen.
