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.

Taste of India Restaurant is a fast food restaurant located in the Tinseltown Food Court at International Village mall (view map, address: 88 W Pender, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-806-0799) on the edge of downtown Vancouver.
The mall is really close to GM Place Stadium and BC Place Stadium, as well as the Stadium skytrain station, and it’s a convenient place to stop for a bite to eat before the Canucks hockey game or BC Lions Football.
The food court at Tinseltown mall is on the level below the movie theatres. Taste of India Restaurant provides a healthy and delicious alternative to the other fast food outlets such as Taco Time and Vana Vietnamese.
At Taste of India they make their Naan bread fresh to order – I was really surprised: it only takes about a minute for them to roll the dough and bake it, and it tasted awesome! Pictured below are two different orders of Combo 2, which includes two items of your choice from their menu with rice and Naan bread for $6.25. Some vegetarian items are available.
