Hungry? Within Hamber’s community, there is an endless amount of places to eat! In our diverse and growing neighbourhood, you can enjoy cuisine from around the world. Here is our list of the must visit restaurants near Hamber.

Las Tortas

This family owned restaurant is located at 17th Ave. and Cambie St. If you’re in the mood for authentic Mexican food, this is the place to be. They are best known for their delicious torta sandwiches, but they also serve tacos, burritos, quesadillas, many different soft drinks — including the beloved Jarritos — and much more. We recommend the pork tacos.

Joon’s Kitchen

This step into upscale Korean and Japanese cuisine is one not to skip. It is located in Fairview, at 15th Ave. and Oak St. This restaurant has a contemporary atmosphere, with a unique take on Korean and Japanese cuisine.

Maruhachi Gaiden

This intimate and casual ramen shack is located at 13th Ave. and Main St. They have a small menu focused on ramen and other delicious Japanese appetizers. You will always be warmly greeted by the kind staff, and the delectable food. The pork in the soups is extremely tender, the soy sauce soaked egg bursts with flavour, and the broth grips onto the noodles, making every bite flavourful.

Tap & Barrel 

Located a bit further from Hamber in the heart of Olympic Village, this pub/restaurant serves filling dishes in a rustic atmosphere. Their food items include classic bar food such as burgers, fries, poutine, and chicken wings. There are also many unique dishes to try. While enjoying your food, you will also be able to enjoy the views of downtown Vancouver and the mountains. Although there is often a long line to get in, many say that it is worth it.

Dutch Wooden Shoe Cafe

Located at 17th Ave. and Cambie St, the Wooden Shoe is a popular, well-loved Dutch breakfast and brunch cafe. It has a family-friendly atmosphere with a retro interior and decorations. They offer a mix of both savoury and sweet breakfasts, so no matter what you want, they will always have something to match your cravings. If you are wanting a filling breakfast, this is the place to go. The service is always amazing, and the staff are kind to everyone. We would recommend the Pannenkoek with strawberry topping, as well as their classic breakfast options.
