Historic Gastown is one of the best shopping experiences
in Vancouver, for good reason: it’s one of the hippest,
most stylish shopping destinations in the city. Home to
some of the best high-end, independent fashion boutiques
in Vancouver, Gastown is a fashion hot-spot as well as
the epicenter for Vancouver interior design. Gastown is
the destination for independent, local or designed-inVancouver fashion.
the east village
The East Village is located within two historic
neighbourhoods situated in the heart of East Vancouver:
Hastings Sunrise and Grandview-Woodland. It is a
community that has a long heritage of cultural diversity,
as well as a dedication to fostering unique businesses that
capture the real flavour of what it means to be from East
Vancouver. Made by hand in Vancouver since 1946, you
can visit the historic Dayton factory. Dayton Boots are
made with the best of everything. The best leathers and
Goodyear Welted, durable soles and quality hardware.
Right down to the brass tacks. There’s something special
about owning a pair of Daytons.

south granville
Just a short walk from the doorstep of Fairmont
Hotel Vancouver, the young, well-heeled and hip have
transformed rows of former Yaletown warehouses into
a digital district with stylish brick and beam offices, lofts,
boutiques, trendy dining, clubs and micro brewery pubs.
Yaletown provides the serenity of an oceanfront seawall,
along with a large selection of trendy patios and award
winning boutiques. As a great escape within the big city,
Yaletown offers an opportunity to explore eclectic shops
set along heritage brick walkways. It also offers noteworthy local shopping options, and even window shoppers
will love the cool boutiques, friendly service and unique
items that the mostly locally-owned stores offer.
From fashion to designer homewares, the stores in
this neighbourhood are quirky, stylish and a lot of fun!
Just over the Granville Street Bridge, this 10-block stretch
of Granville Street - from Sixth Avenue up to 16th
Avenue - is where Vancouver’s enclave of Shaughnessy
comes to shop. Classic and upscale men’s and women’s
clothiers, and house ware and furniture boutiques
predominate. This area is also the heart of Vancouver’s
gallery row. As one of the best neighbourhoods in
Vancouver to visit, South Granville’s vibrant retail
community attracts a wide range of clientele, from
aspiring designers and art lovers to fashion trend setters
and gourmet connoisseurs. With something for all styles
and tastes, visitors can indulge in beautiful fashion and
design, the best of home decor, delicious food and drink,
