Breweries & Distilleries
Britannia's Steveston taproom sits a block off the waterfront and pairs its own British-leaning ales with a full seafood-forward kitchen. Locals come for a flight alongside chowder or fish and chips, and it opens early enough to serve breakfast on weekends.
In the Steveston neighbourhood of Richmond.

Longer reads from the editor, with the places worth a detour linked inside them.
The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
