Stay in the hostel to meet some of the world's friendliest people, then enjoy some local brews and yummy food in the bar downstairs. Get a Cambie Card - discounts on everything - totally worthwhile!

Granville Island beer is usually cheap here but the food is burgers and just ok. Come for the atmosphere of international travelers because there is an attached hostel; also cheap.

The perogies are yum! The Cambie burger is a great go-to. Good food for fair prices.

Not sure why 'metal' is still a thing in Vancouver, but it's alive and well at the Cambie. Crowd's a little rough, but service is friendly.

Great price for a pitcher ($12), and even better on Wednesdays ($9). If you prefer a rowdy pub, this is the place!

Its cleaner, but lost its charm because of it. I liked seeing my name carved in the table.

Lovely, unique building from the late 19th century. Lots of mice though. Bring no food with you or zip it.

Hipsters everywhere.. And the bartender didn't even know what a negroni was or how to make one. Not the best bar to frequent.

grab a window seat and put your jacket/sweater over the oldschool radiator. that way when you leave to the cold/wet outdoors, it's toasty warm!

As a hostel, this place is uninhabitable. Water damage floors, smells like farts, in total disrepair. Secure doors often left ajar.

Ask for the Burger & Brew. Can't go wrong at $6.50.. (but sadly, a short 10 years ago, it was $5 even)

They can't do a proper rocky mountain bear fucker because they don't have the right brands. Save that for Whistler.
