Beatty Street Bar & Grill (755 Beatty Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-688-3563) is located really close to BC Place Stadium and GM Place Stadium and is a great place to grab a beer or some food before (or after) the big game. They are also open for lunch and have a reasonably priced menu that includes burgers (such as the one pictured below, around $13), sandwiches and pastas (such as the Chicken Pesto pasta also pictured below, $13.99). The restaurant is decorated with sports memorabilia and there are plenty of TV’s tuned to the sports channels. The Beatty Street Grill is located in the Georgian Court Hotel in downtown Vancouver.
Sushi Town (5935 East Hastings, Burnaby, BC, Canada, phone 604-294-6155) is quite frankly my favorite a-la-carte sushi restaurant in the Greater Vancouver area. And that is saying quite a bit, since I’ve tried a lot of them.
Below is pictured the Sushi and Sashimi Combo (around $7.75), as well as the Mangodise Roll (around $6.95). I am always impressed by the freshness, quality, and large size of the sashimi and sushi pieces, at such reasonable prices. This restaurant is definitely worth driving a little ways to get there.

The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver (web site, 900 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, 604-684-3131) is one of downtown Vancouver’s most notable landmarks, for its stunning old-world architecture set amidst the more modern towers of downtown Vancouver’s business and shopping districts. The hotel’s website describes:
Like the city that surrounds it, [the Hotel] is rich in history, resplendent in natural beauty, vibrant and cosmopolitan.
The Hotel has several restaurants, one of which, Griffin’s, serves a wonderful brunch/lunch buffet. Pictured below is a night-time view of one of the side entrances to the hotel.
