Expect a wait at this breakfast/ brunch place. Fairly new to the Winnipeg scene and opened by one of our most celebrated chefs. Food is on the rich/ decadent side, but oh so good, and won't break the bank. Great brunch cocktails!

Viva Restaurant

I dream about Dansk's schnitzel! This restaurant is a Winnipeg icon. Cozy, wood panel decor. Seasoned servers, and ABUNDANT Eastern European dishes. The chicken schnitzel is my favourite, but everything here is good. I dare you to finish your meal! They close pretty early, and they take reservations.

Drinks & Nightlife
If they are open, there is live music. This is a Winnipeg institution! Small, unpretentious hole in the wall with great people and great music. Expect to pay a cover, but it will be worth it! They also have some basic Mexican style food that is yummy and cheap. Highly recommend if you want a low key, fun filled night.

Essentials
Small grocery store with everything you need. Prices are a little higher and a bit less selection but it will do the trick for a small shop. There is a Food Fare on the corner of Westminster and Maryland. And another one that is larger at Portage and Burnell.
