    The Naam – Vegetarian / Vegan Restaurant in Vancouver BC

    The Naam is Vancouver’s oldest vegetarian and vegan restaurant. Located in the heart of Vancouver’s Kitsilano Neighbourhood, The Naam has been serving vegetarian & vegan comfort food since 1968. Their sesame fries come in heaping portions and served with their infamous miso gravy. Their miso gravy is so popular it’s sold bottled in health markets around the country. One of great things about this place is that it is open from early to late, serving up breakfast, lunch and dinner veg options. Another thing that almost instantly ensures my customer loyalty is that you can order up a serving of real maple syrup to drizzle on your pancakes (or whatever). Soy, almond and oat milk are available for your lattes and other barista beverages. They have a selection of veggie burgers, dragon bowls and plenty more menu options to satisfy a variety a tastes. Try their cashew cheesecake, chocolate cake or a number of other delectable vegan desserts, with a choice of dairy and soy ice cream option!

    The Templeton, Vancouver BC

    “Jukebox-lined eatery with free-run eggs & breakfast faves, plus organic burgers & classic shakes.”

    Whenever I’m in Vancouver, visiting the Templeton is top of my list of priorities. Old school diner serving up tasty comfort food and vegetarian dishes, this iconic eatery is nestled in among the tattoo parlors, hotels, hostels, and theatres of Granville street. Near the Granville Bridge, it’s up the street from nights out at Vancouver night life destinations like the Commodore Ballroom, Orpheum Theatre, Cinematheque etc. This area is very busy to visit! Usually I get off the train on Granville at the Hudsons Bay, and start working my way through the crowds lining the busy street. This area is a lot of fun but after so much walking and activity, I just need to sit in a booth, chill and eat the best macaroni ever. Visit http://thetempleton.ca/
