Sweet spots for a slice: Vancouver’s best pie shops
Pie happy hour? Yes please! Stop into this retro diner between 2 and 4 pm on weekdays and you’ll get a free tea or drip coffee to go with your housemade pie. Pies come in fruit, cream and nut varieties, with occasional ventures into boozy bourbon or Kahlua territory. Grab a stool at the U-shaped counter to be transported back to the soda shop days of yore.

Vancouver’s best weekday breakfast joints
In Gastown, there’s no better place than Acme Café for an all-day breakfast during the workweek. There’s lots of choice when it comes to eggs: get them sunny side up, as a frittata, in a sandwich or in their signature Benny. The portions here are filling and the eggs are cooked in the oven, which means you’ll avoid the usual greasiness of diner breakfasts. Acme Cafe is also known for their delicious baked goods. Coffee and pie for breakfast, anyone?

Gastown sandwich shops: Coolest things since sliced bread
The extensive sandwich menu at this East Hastings café and diner won’t leave you with any afternoon stomach grumbling, that’s for sure. Big platters come with a pickle and your choice of broccoli slaw or soup or, for a couple of extra dollars, mac and cheese. Their Montreal smoked meat is a winner with classic Dijon and a slice of Swiss on pumpernickel. They also offer an elevated grilled cheese with three cheeses and a cranberry-Grand Marnier sauce. Whichever way you go, finish it off with a strong coffee to avoid the post-lunch drowsies.
