What are your go-to restaurants locally?

8 Upvotes

My family and I will be stopping in Vernon tomorrow around 1ish and we’ll want to have some lunch but we want to know where is best.

We’d prefer somewhere where it won’t be super loud inside and minors must be able to access it.

Please leave us your recommendations.

Vernon to Surrey with a Child – Best Transportation Options?

Upvotes

Hi everyone! I have a question: what would be the most convenient mode of transportation from Vernon to Surrey?

I’ll be coming to Vernon on Tuesday night with my husband and son. My husband will be staying in Vernon, but my son and I need to return to Surrey. I’m considering leaving Wednesday evening/night (after 4:30 PM) or Thursday.

Apart from Poparide, what would be the easiest/most convenient option for travelling with a child? Also, Airbnb options nearby in Vernon downtown!!!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Putting feelers out

Hey all, just moved into Vernon yesterday and looking for work. Most of my experience is with outfits like fitness depot and Flaman. I have a mind for information and customer service.
Anything could help a guy out even if it’s quick and easy so I can just get going.

Chicken Caesar wraps

Can someone rave me a place in town that has chicken Caesar wraps. 1516, Alexander’s, the Kal and many other places I don’t see it on the menu. Only place I’ve found is Red Robin but I was hoping a pub or something has them. Thank you. Been really craving a good one for the last couple months.

What is the longboarding scene like in Vernon?

3 Upvotes

Is there much of a longboarding community? Are there longboarding groups? Where are the best places to go in town and the surrounding area, is Otter Lake Rd any good? Is longboarding even still a thing, I rarely see them anymore?

I did it when I was a teenager (mostly as a means of transportation) and am thinking about getting back in to it as a hobby.

Any advice is welcome.
