Lots of little shops to explore from market stalls, food to eat in or take-out, wine, clothes, gifts and more! Always enjoy a visit here - good for an hour or three... More

Not much really to say... I'm from North Vancouver and really am only down here when I have to take the seabus across to downtown. Wouldn't come here to shop really... crowded, overpriced... meh. Compared to other markets around the world... this one's just another tourist trap with cheap Asian knick knacks. Go to Chinatown or even just walk up... More

Located on the North Shore across from downtown Vancouver, this quay is accessed by the North Shore busses and the Vancouver Seabus and rapid transit systems. The quay is a vibrant place which offers interesting shops, markets, coffee shops and eating places. Also a great place to saunter down to to watch all the activity going on along the waterfront...

Having lived in North Vancouver most of my life, I have visited Lonsdale Quay more times than I can count. It is sort of a mini version of Granville Market, so think small and limited, but a nice little outing. There are two levels, with the food court and vendors on the ground floor, and more speciality stores on the... More

Only a quick sea bus ride from downtown Vancouver, Lonsdale Quay has many little shops and an amazing food court with food from all around the world. On a summer day, grab some lunch and head outside to eat and watch the ships go by. There's usually live entertainment on the weekends in the summer. More

Always lots going on at Lonsdale Quay especially on the weekends. A terminus for the Sea Bus and the north shore Bus service, it always seems to be busy. One or two good restaurants a good pub and coffee shops, it has it all. More

Stayed at the hotel on Lonsdale Quay and loved its proximity to the great variety of fresh food and yummy coffee spots in the market! Breakfast, lunch or dinner here consists of informal food kiosk treats! We especially loved the fresh fruit with breakfast toppings! Some interesting shops and boutiques too! More

We love the Quay area and have been several times, including with visitors from out of country. The Seabus ride from Vancouver is a pleasant and unique experience best done at times other than rush hour. The indoor shops are interesting if a little pricey and there is always something new due to a bit of turnover. The outdoor area... More
