I'm big on coffee. Vancouver has a brilliant cafe scene emerging, much like Seattle or Victoria.
A couple personal faves:
Milano's on W8th Ave - What an epic location - the view is incredible. And make sure to try the Butter or Cognac espresso, and take some home with you. Like heaven in your mouth and everyone is singing - Hallaleuia!
JJ Bean at Main & 14th - amazing venue, high ceilings
Matchsticks - around the corner from our place. Shiek and they have great coffee!
Paper Crane coffee - right across the street and over half a block. Quaint little coffee shop with good music and people are typically studying.

Vancouver's version of New York's Central Park. I have tons of memories of Stanley Park as a kid. From the Aquarium, to the water park, to the holiday trains (Christmas, Halloween, Easter, etc.), and even the totem poles. You need to check this place out.
