Best Donuts in New Westminster

"On the flipside, Cartems has, in our minds, become the top dog of cake donuts. We seriously don’t think we’ve had a better one in our lives than their Earl Grey option, at least for our preferences. What’s more, we also won’t hesitate to say that they’ve got some of the best vegan donuts in Vancouver to boot, especially since there’s an Earl Grey version of that, too."

"Address: Downtown – 534 West Pender, Vancouver BC | Mount Pleasant – 2190 Main St., Vancouver BC. My friends wanted to go and get some donuts, and we went to this place called Cartems!. Apparently, they have a lot of vegan and gluten-free options (which made me really happy!)."

"Before a long day of people watching at Kits Beach, clocking a few laps at Kits Pool, and shopping the ritzy boutiques along West 4th Avenue, you’ll need to refuel—and nowhere better than at 49th Parallel in the heart of trendy Kitsilano. The coffee is the main attraction here. The shop sources its beans directly from farmers, ensuring solid ethics as well as top-quality brews."

"49th Parallel is famous for Lucky’s Donuts and (in my view at least) their pretty blue mugs. Their beans are roasted in house and it very tasty. While there are a few 49th Parallel coffee shops in Vancouver, their location in Kitsilano has a beautiful patio area making it one of the cutest places to get coffee."

"We couldn’t write a list of the best donuts in Vancouver without including this absolute titan. We’re not going to sit here and say it’s off the charts, flavour-wise. But, there’s no denying that Duffin’s is a magical place in Vancouver, has a tremendous range of donuts to choose from, and the best value in the city by far."

"A post shared by Duffins Donuts (@duffins_donuts) on Jul 4, 2017 at 8:45am PDT. A hidden Vancouver gem, Duffin’s is open 24 hours a day and has an enticing menu full of cheap eats. Their subs sell for less than $5, they have an all-day breakfast for $4.75, and of course, fresh doughnuts."

"Their 30-year run of fresh baked and prepared in-house donuts has made them a Vancouver staple. They offer 50 varieties and also serve fried chicken, Chinese food, and torta subs and are open 24 hours a day. What more could you ask of donut shop?"

"Mochido is actually the newest name on this list, having only opened earlier this spring!. They’ve already made some waves thanks to their super interesting ‘mochi donut’, which is like a bunch of little interconnected balls. We have to admit, these folks might get the nod for ‘coolest looking’ on our list of best donuts in Vancouver."

"A relatively new name in the city, Mello has opted for a pretty specific type of donut- brioche, and essentially all the filled versions. What that means for us is an array of some delicious flavours, ranging from London Fog to Black Sesame and classic Strawberry. Pro tip- you get a pretty serious discount buying a half-dozen, so maybe take these to your next small dinner party as dessert."

"This small tasting room found along the Adnac bike route is a must-visit when touring Vancouver’s beer scene, for the beer as much as for the story (but mainly for the beer.) Some guys who played on a hockey team called “the Bombers” convinced one of their teammates who made a bangin’ home brew to open a brewery. Next thing you know, Bomber Brewing was born. Hockey to craft beer?"

"Bomber is so tucked away among bagel factories and other industrial buildings that I feel like it could surely be considered a hidden gem. Not only is the beer drool worthy, but they’ve got a bunch of tasty little bar snacks and board games so you can sit there all night and sip and play, or fill a growler and hit the road. Either way, your taste buds will thank you."

"Between the Bomber Russian Imperial Stout and the Parklife Passion Fruit Ale, you’ve got two killer beers. The tap room is small but cozy and that Adanac street beer route is fantastic."

"Book a table at one of their patios and try some of their best dishes. We recommend the Mount Lehman roasted half chicken and wild mushroom pappardelle. Where: Olympic Village, Gastown, and Yaletown, Vancouver"

"Make certain to visit International Village Mall—formerly known as Tinseltown—after 10am since Pender Street isn’t a street you want to be walking along by yourself. By going near the opening time, you’ll be surrounded by commuters heading off to work. Pick up a bubble tea to enjoy as you wander through this double-storey mall in search of fashion-forward accessories."

"A post shared by Clothes and Collectibles (@clothesandcollectibles) on Jun 14, 2016 at 11:28am PDT. Wander over to Vancouver’s West End neighbourhood mini-mall to stock up on inexpensive school and office supplies at discount retailer Dollarama. No phone is beyond repair when you bring it to the electronics technicians at Cellular Repair."

"The signature dish at this cool sandwich shop on the edge of Gastown is the porchetta and salsa verde (£4.38), and it's worth the inevitable wait in line to get in to the bare-brick and white-tiled interior. Juicy pork belly is seasoned with a herb and salt rub and then wrapped around the loin, roasted, sliced and sandwiched into fresh ciabatta along with crispy crackling and a perky salsa verde. Despite the name, this place also makes an effort with its meat-free options in tasty combos like cumin sweet potato cake with pickled red onion, toasted walnuts and spiced sour cream (£3.83).370 Cambie St, meatandbread.ca"

"menu is fairly simple and straightforward, consisting of meat sandwiches – yet, the restaurant is one of the trendier places to be seen in Gastown. Part of a chain, when there was talk of a Meat and Bread opening in Seattle, the news was widely covered in the press. What the success of the Meat and Bread method demonstrates is how popular a restaurant can be when excellent quality ingredients, top-notch cooking, and good service are combined."

"A post shared by Foodee Inc. (@foodee_inc) on Apr 13, 2016 at 10:32am PDT. SMAK accomplishes the rare task of providing fresh, fast food that’s actually healthy, but does so without making it ridiculously overpriced. Their bowls are fully loaded and you can get them for $5.95, making the whole ‘healthy eating’ thing rather easy."

"Another great choice when it comes to vegetarian and vegan breakfast in Vancouver is SMAK. There’s a vegan brekky bowl with avocados, mushrooms, tomatoes and hash and smoothie bowls like the Monkey Bowl."

"Gastown’s notable Pourhouse offers a boozy brunch service on weekends: mimosas and caesars are two for one, particularly enticing for anyone who has had a long week. As for the food, guests can indulge in favourites such as the mushroom frittata, smoked salmon benedict, chicken and waffles, or the classic (housemade sausage patty or double smoked bacon, poached eggs, potatoes, and grilled sourdough). Chicken and waffles."

"Whether it’s for a relaxing lunch, an intimate dinner with a loved one, or just a fun evening with friends, you will want a good atmosphere, drinks, and food. For all that (and much more) look no further than Pourhouse in Vancouver. This gorgeous restaurant tucked inside a 100 year old building is the perfect place for a celebration of any kind."
