Railtown might be one of Vancouver’s best-kept secrets. The neighborhood, which until recently was an industrial part of town just east of trendy Gastown, has quickly become one of the hippest places to eat, drink and be merry. Affordable rent has attracted artists and young tech-minded professionals here, and with them galleries, cafes, bars and restaurants.
This 2-hour tour takes your small group to a handful of the best restaurant and drink spots that the neighborhood has to offer, all within a one-mile (2 km) radius, and you get to sample up to 10 different foods and beverages.
Start with comfort food at H.A.V.E. Café, a cool culinary training center that helps disadvantaged folks find jobs in the food industry. (Proceeds from the price of this tour actually go to this nonprofit.) You'll want to save some room for sandwiches at Big Lou’s Butcher Shop; light snacks on a visit to the funky Railtown Café; and two tastings of Vancouver Urban Winery's varieties during a tour inside a converted warehouse.
Like any good ending, sweets are the final stop with dessert at the Cadeaux Bakery.
