Neighbourhood markets and cafes

A somewhat legendary fixture in the neighbourhood, especially in Strath kid culture, this strange little convenience store is open until 9pm for quick off-brand snacks or forgotten grocery items. Sadly the building has been sold and Wayne Grocery (not Wayne's Grocery) will not be around for much longer.

Things I like to do
Get a bike (Mobi or Union St rentals) and cycle the sea wall!
Take an Aquabus or False Creek Ferry around False Creek inlet and hop off at Granville Island, the Aquatic Centre or Stamps Landing for a drink and a snack.
Get sweet treats at La Casa Gelato, Earnest ice cream, Crackle Creme or Mello.
It's an easy walk past Science world toward Olympic Village where you can catch one of the little ferries that zig zag around False Creek. A great way to get to Granville Island or beaches if you don't want to bike.

You can't stay this close to Chinatown and not go out for dim sum. There are lots to choose from, but this place is our favourite. Don't miss the deep fried squid and the green beans.

If you're going to walk to any of these places, I would suggest crossing Hastings at Jackson and then heading west along Powell.
