We’re lucky to have Burnaby Mountain within our city limits: a towering mountain that provides not only stunning views and outdoor recreation, but one that’s home to a thriving university campus and permanent community.

Next time you’re on the mountain and wondering where to have lunch, try out these excellent spots.

Sometimes, you just need a pint when you’re done classes for the day. Head to BierCraft UniverCity for good old-fashioned pub food, from wings to burgers to pizza. Plus, they’ve got a great happy hour.

Address: 8902 University High St.

SFU students know this is the best spot on the campus to get your caffeine fix before those early morning classes. Alongside your standard list of coffee and tea drinks, you can find delectable breakfast sandwiches—and a selection of homestyle Indian eats like rajma chawal.

Address: Academic Quadrangle, Simon Fraser University

Japarrito offers up favourites like bento boxes and sushi, but their true innovation comes from the sushi burrito. Try one of the eight flavours, including the Fire Ninja with spicy tuna, the Geisha’s Kiss with delicious chicken karaage, and The Cowboy with teriyaki beef. Vegetarians will love The Garden Delight or Buddha Belly.

Address: #5-8910 University High St.

Hey! I am Yogost specializes in yogurt drinks and has plenty of options to satisfy your sweet tooth. Try the Matcha Mochi Yogurt drink!

Address: 8915 Cornerstone Mews

This upscale and romantic restaurant is situated in Burnaby Mountain Park, with sweeping views of the Lower Mainland and the Burrard Inlet. It just opened up last month in the spot formerly occupied by Horizons Restaurant, and it’s perfect for a date night out!

Address: 100 Centennial Way

A hop, skip, and a jump down the mountain lands you at the iconic Dageraad Brewing. This craft brewery has been putting Burnaby on the map for nearly nine years—make sure to try its homage to our beautiful city, the Burnabarian!

Address: #114-3191 Thunderbird Cres.
