Treat yourself in North Vancouver

Having a bit of a sweet tooth lately? Keep reading and find three epic spots to visit over the weekend in North Vancouver that will have you drooling!

First up is the brand new 49th Parallel location in Lower Lonsdale (3 Lonsdale Avenue). This spot features a donut display filled with sweet treats from Lucky’s Doughnuts – I’m telling you now, they are a must-try!

As Geraint James, Director Cafés at 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters explains, “The Lower Lonsdale neighbourhood is steeped in history. We wanted to honour the neighbourhood with a café and gathering place that reflects its past while the community can experience first hand what makes 49th Parallel a west coast favourite. From the second customers walk through the door, to the moment they take their first sip of coffee or bite of Lucky’s doughnuts, we are here to make a lasting impression that 49th Parallel is your café.”

P.S. Make sure to go early, their doughnuts sell out very quickly.

Another great spot to visit is Earnest Ice-Cream.

The second our weather heats up a bit I consistently see a line-up outside Earnest which can really only mean one thing, this being that the ice-cream must be seriously delicious. If you plan on heading over to check them out, try their new Honey & Chamomile Spring flavour which is only available this month!

Last but certainly not least we have Thomas Haas Chocolates.

This is the perfect spot for any of you chocolate lovers! Ideally, I would recommend heading out for a walk around Harbourside, then making a stop at Thomas Haas. Keep in mind they are also currently offering Easter options such as Easter chocolate bunnies, chocolate lollipops, and so much more. If you plan on celebrating Easter to the fullest, make sure to place your Thomas Haas order early. Click here to learn more.

I hope you are able to stop by at these three fantastic businesses! Have fun, enjoy, and leave your recommendations below on other North Vancouver businesses I can visit over the weekend to satisfy that sweet tooth!
