14 Best Diners near Vancouver

“Argo Burger topped with bacon, cheese, fried onions and egg is served alongside a mound of fries. Delicious, whether eaten hot or cold. Fried chicken burger is one of the best in town. Fish and chips came with equal amounts of both, which translates into lots. Creamy Chicken chili con queso and heaping plateful of Spicy lamb on their respective beds of rice were stick-to-your-bones good. Then there's the home-baked pie and the OMG butter tart! If you're searching for comfort food with a serving of easy hospitality, this old-school Mount Pleasant diner is where you'll find it. #EastVanLoveRules“

“Grabbed breakkie here a few days back before work and the service+food was unforgettable. The ambiance caught my eye but the hospitality definitely made me want to frequent this cozy joint more often. Tara's service was terrific, could not complain with the bottomless iced coffee before a long day, and I'm so glad she convinced me on the mangled eggs!!! That thing was like a loaded croissant on steroids 😹

Between the rest of the crew whippin' out delicacies from the kitchen and swiftly seating new patrons, I've gotta give special props to JC, Brendan, and Nikki for maintaining such seamless synergy throughout the morning, and helping add a little magic to mine when I needed it!

P.s. that pb shake is calling my nameeee 😭“

“The staff at the basic are incredible! I was having a really rough day, and ordered for pickup. On the phone I asked the women for an order of sanity at the end. She laughed said “oh I’ll try” Not expecting anything but a laugh. I went to pick up the food and was pleasantly surprised to find some “sanity” in my order. It honestly made my day.“

“If you're tired of overpriced pretentious restaurants in Vancouver, and want some old school comfort food served by experienced attentive staff, you must try this Vancouver landmark. First time I've been here in 50 years and it will not be the last. The sole waitress was also the hostess, cashier, busser, and coffee refiller. The owner cooked, served and cashier. With restaurants dropping like flies in Vancouver due to high cost and labour shortage, it's amazing to see how efficiently this old school diner is run to keep labour cost and menu prices down.“

“The staff and the food were so good. There are so many options to choose from for breakfast. And thier lattes are made with a really nice espresso. I loved the ambiance of the dinner too.“

“The menu is excellent and the decoration as a 50’s diner place is incredible. Loved my lunch there.“

“great food and atmosphere!“

“Try the pulled pork pancake and shepherd’s pie. Come hungry coz the serving is huge.“

“Good atmosphere! Good food !“

“One of the best bennies I’ve had at a restaurant,.. and from me, that’s a very high praise… nuff said..“

“Didn't take any picture cuz my friends and I literally finished our meal once we got them. We ordered 肉夹馍，油泼面，and 红油凉皮，way over expectation, as authentic as what I usually had in my birth city, Xi'an.

Being honest with you, this reminded me of my grandma and my hometown.

The only lackness here is the atmosphere cuz it's inside a mall which means not much seats for dining, yet the take-out package is tight and clean.“

“家鄉食品美味有新意，好吃不貴“

“Nice portion size on their breakfast. Nice and friendly staff“

“Honestly for a food court place I didn’t know what to expect. But it’s pretty good. Had low expectations but the congee and the rice noodles were so well made. The congee wasn’t watery, perfectly flavoured, no shortage of ingredients inside and the rice noodle was very well made. Good QQ and the amount of meat is very good for what you pay. I like to think of this place like Chinese tapas.“
