I'll be honest, I've only been here for some light appies, which were good, but I haven't explored the menu too much. The reason I love it so much, is because it's an amazing view if you sit out on the patio on a sunny day!

This place is a MUST for breakfast! Everything on the menu is great, and it still has a small town diner feel. I love to walk along the river to it.

Drinks & Nightlife
Delicious beer, industrial chic ambiance, good music and if you're lucky there may be a food truck out front. Best part is it's only 2 blocks away, if you've had a few too many :)

New Westminster was the first capital of BC so there is some rich history. Check it out at the museum.
