With three outposts, they’ve become a staple in Vancouver and you definitely need to check them out and eat one (or many) of their doughnut offerings. Try the earl grey doughnut, made from earl grey and topped with flower petals. This joint offers “stuffies,” vegan, and gluten-free options too.

People line up to get their hands on one of these rings, and they’re the perfect sweet treat after kayaking in Deep Cove or completing the Quarry Rock hike. Choose from their honey, maple, cinnamon sugar, or chocolate flavours.
