 German bratwurst and sausages by meteorologist1 As I said before, you can't really get by Granville Island without craving for the food. It was only after 10am in the morning and I was already starting to think about lunch. (This picture is a proof.) Granville Island, or the whole city of Vancouver as a matter of fact, offers so much diversity in its food, so I have to say a visit to Vancouver should partly be a culinary trip. So come prepared to eat! Leave a Comment

 Granville Island Public Market by meteorologist1 At the Granville Island Public Market, this is where you can get fresh fruits, vegetables, and meats in Vancouver. Aisles and aisles of fresh produce is really an eye opener. You can also get fresh breads, bagels and handmade fudge here. There's also a section that sells tasty meals, snacks, and drinks that you can have for lunch. For example, there's chinese and japanese food, german sausages, soups, etc. that you can buy here. Excellent place to walk around to see how great living in Vancouver is. Leave a Comment

 Public Market - Granville Island by Webboy Granville Island has the most outstanding mouth watering public market i have ever seen! There are rows upon rows upon rows of fresh fruit, veg, fish and meat. It is almost impossible to walk through here and not be hungry at the other side. Upon entering Granville Island along Anderson Street, head straight along the road and take a left when the road forks. The Public Market sits to the North West of the Island. Even if it is just for the magnificent range of colours on display - you shoulf go if in the area! Leave a Comment

 Granville Island by Webboy Granville Island is not exactly an Island. However, since around 90% of it is surrounded by water - i won't complain! Granville Island is a busy little place. There are plenty of shops, some restaurants, some bars and plenty of excellent views from every edge. It has the most mouth watering food market - you cannot leave it without buying something! ha ha ha! Granville Island is fairly easy to get to either by bus or taxi. It is only 5 - 10 minutes in either from the centre of Downtown - although bus would be a lot cheaper. We had already booked ourselves on to a sightseeing tour bus, so just hopped off at Granville Island and back on when we were finished. A nice way to spend the afternoon - and free to enter.

 Granville Island by rmdw No visit to Vancouver is complete without taking at least a few hours to explore Granville Island (GI). In the late 1970's GI was transformed from a decaying industrial park into the magnificent multi-usage facility it is today. No single word can describe what GI offers, so let me list a few: Fine restaurants, fresh fast-food, drinks, fresh fruits & vegetables, cheeses galore, pate, sausages, fresh seafood, fudge, bagels, coffee, live music, theatre, parks, flowers, kids water park & market, microbrewery, houseboats, arts & crafts, fine wooden items, and did I also mention absolutely spectactular scenery?! Depending on the day and time, it might be prudent to park elsewhere and walk down or take a ferry to GI. You won't regret your visit! Click here to see more photos.

 A superb indoor market by nigelw6443 It is quite easy to spend a day at Granville Island. As well as a number of craft stores dotted around there is a superb indoor market and a food court where good quality inexpensive International cuisine can be bought from fish and chips to tacos! There are a couple of pubs and also a theatre which also has a very good bar. Leave a Comment

 Some Granville Island Brews by jamiesno If you are into local breweries you should stop by the Granville Brewing Company. Actually in BC and Alberta these brewing companies put out some great beer. At GIB for less than $5 CDN you can sampe 5 different beers that are made on site. I tried the English Pale Ale, Cypress Honey Lager, Gastown Amber Ale, Island Lager and one seasonal ale. Personally I enjoyed the lagers best. You can also get tours of the brewery twice a day. The tour can only accommodate 14 people at a time so it obviously fills up quickly. I missed the tour because I tried to walk on, not realizing, so be sure to put your name on the list prior to the tour. There is also a nice gift shop where you can obviously buy more beer or lots of beer and wine drinking accessories.

 Busker by jamiesno Buskers on Granville Island are a great way to break up your day if your tired of touring Vancouver. I remember this guy claiming to be from England really got a lot of attention. He involved the audience a lot of was very funny. Not to mention talented throwing around this fire all day. I really enjoy Buskers in every city but Granville Island has some great ones so be sure to take the time to stop and enjoy. Leave a Comment
