About this Neighborhood
Yaletown was once a heavy industrial stretch of warehouses and rail yards along False Creek; since Expo 86 it's become one of Vancouver's most densely populated neighbourhoods. That transformation shows in the numbers: 134 restaurants, 37 coffee shops (a stellar 4.8 average), 21 groceries and a perfect Walk Score of 100. Yelp reviewers rate it a warm 4.8, with Manoush'eh, Number E Food and Passione Gelato among the named picks. The Foursquare regulars set a polished tone — cocktail bars, Italian and Japanese kitchens, sushi and breakfast spots woven through the old brick-and-timber grid.
