On the weekends brunch is undoubtedly the most important meal of the day, and Vancouver sure loves to brunch.
From a plant-based newcomer to some decadent fresh options, here are five brunches to check out right now in Vancouver.
Botanist

One of Vancouver's most spectacular additions to the dining scene this year, Botanist offers a daily breakfast with their beautiful baked goods, egg dishes, healthy options, and the requisite avocado toast, but on the weekends they add on hearty extended non-breakfasty options like a decadent Wagyu burger, squid ink tempura fish and chips, and their gorgeous beef tartar.

It's always a fun time at the new-ish Chickpea restaurant on Main Street, where the four-wheeled Middle Eastern eatery set up shop with their expanded menu of plant-based eats. For breakfast they're serving up innovative border-bending dishes like Latkes in a Pita and Malawach (stuffed savoury puffed pancakes).

Breakfast Table

Have you checked out this small cafe on Broadway near Granville yet? They're all about elegant plates of comforting breakfast fare, made with high quality ingredients. They've been open just over a year now, and have a great selection of brunch dishes, from the Hot Smoked Trout Benedict to a Fried Chicken Omelette, and they've got breakfast cocktails, too.
Address: 1481 West Broadway, Vancouver
Cacao 70 - Sweet House
Head to North Vancouver to experience Cacao 70's first Vancouver-area Sweet House concept, which opened up last month. They have a full brunch menu that runs the gamut from savoury crepes and a "Hangover Omelette" to their signature waffles--often with a sweet chocolately twist.
Address: 143 Chadwick Court, North Vancouver
