Where to eat and stay in Downtown
172 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Downtown, British Columbia — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.
We hold 172 venues in Downtown — 159 places to eat and 13 to stay. That makes it the 15th-largest of the 799 towns and suburbs we cover in British Columbia, carrying 1% of the region's venues.
Of the places to eat, 32% are cafés against a national figure of 19%. Downtown is 13 points more café-heavy than the country as a whole, which usually points to daytime and weekend trade rather than an evening dining scene. The full split is 51 cafés, 61 restaurants, 37 takeaways, 5 bars and 5 pubs.
97 of the 159 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (17), burger (13) and japanese (7). Relative to the rest of the country Downtown is unusually strong on steak house, mediterranean and bubble tea — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.
On the practical detail: 129 publish opening hours (75%), 75 are recorded as step-free, 48 have outdoor seating and 75 flag vegetarian options. Coverage here is better than the 21% national average, so the hours below are more reliable than most.
For a bed, Downtown runs to 13 listings — 10 hotels, 1 b&bs and guest houses and 2 hostels. Hotels dominate, at 77% of the town's accommodation.
Places of a similar size — Moncton (173), Lethbridge (173), Ville de Mont-Royal (171) and Drummondville (174) — average 7% accommodation. Downtown runs at 8%, much the same, so on this measure it behaves like its peers.
All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 74 of the 172 venues in Downtown carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
